We Consumers Pay
N THE-current-issue if the Country
Gentleman there appears a state
ment bearing ao closely on our
presbnt problem of the high oast o£
living that I think it worfli quoting.
"In November New Jersey farmers got
$3 a barrel for potatoes for whi«A the
New York, city consumer paid at the
rate of $9 a barrel.''
The Country Gentiemaxi then quotes
the manager of a farmei«'' exchange who
says that New York buyers absolutely
refused to pay more than $3 a barrel.for
potatoes—the same potatoes that the
consumer paid $9 a.barrel for. For thii
reason, said the manager, many potatoet
grown, near New York were shipped
the south and west, where better price
could be obtained for the farmers.
This is one of the most remarkable
spreads between producer and consumer
the present agitation about the high cost
of living 'has brought out.. We can
.accept, the Country Gentleman's state
ment of the facta, but.'Its conclusions
seem rpther .absurd. -The "reason given
^^..for this spread is that taxes are so hi^h
''m" New York ^at rents are outrageous
and consequently retailers are forced to
eharge outrageous prices for-potatoes to'
pay rant.

No doubt high taxed and *rent did add
to the retail price of potatoes, hot.it
seems unreasonable 4hat this could add
$6 or ^ywhere nejo* it to the price on a
barrel between, ^ipduceir and consumer.
Instead of dropping it there, the Country
Gentleman should have found rat how
many hands a $3 bturiei of jmkatoes
