BUSINESS NOTES. 
The gold output of Rhodesia, South 
Africa, for 11)12, was 842,807 ounces, 
worth approximately $12,850,000. 
The peach aud apple outlook for Clark 
County, Arkansas, is especially favorable. 
Corn, cotton and garden truck are well 
advanced. 
May 15 the total net number of idle 
freight cars in this country and Canada 
was 50,204, an increase in the surplus 
over the previous two weeks of 10,405. 
Dutiable goods in bonded warehouses 
at New York April 30 amounted to $54,- 
026,575. Large items were: Tobacco, 
$17,000,072; cane sugar, $1,130,812; 
linens, $2,277,380. 
Imports of foreign machinery into .la- 
pan are increasing steadily. Engines and 
electrical equipment are the largest items, 
the United States furnishing nearly one- 
half of the latter. 
Exports of apples from Atlantic ports 
of this country and Unnnda during the 
season just ended were about 2,080.000 
barrels. The largest quantity went to 
Liverpool. Three-eights of the shipments 
were from Canada. 
BOSTON MARKETS. 
In the market gardens near Boston 
crops look late and backward. Lettuce 
is rather poor in quality on many farms 
bnl is selling well and demand is brisk ; 
in fact poor grades which ninny times 
no one would buy at. any price are now 
bringing 75 cents per box. Early peas 
are small and not promising for an early 
crop. Rhubarb looks fine but is selling 
a little slow, as strawberries are plenty 
and cheap except for extra fancy. Plenty 
Of good berries can be bought for eight 
and nine cents per box and retail two 
boxes for a quarter in most stores. Cold 
weather has retarded asparagus, which 
needs warm weather to push it along. 
Native strawberries have not been hurt, 
much by the frosts the past week or 
two. Cucumbers are being transplanted 
into long beds covered at present by 
sash, which will he kept oil until warm 
weather and growth are sufficient to 
leave them off. Tomatoes were nipped 
by frosts in the beds and put back, as 
few expected the frosts and neglected to 
cover them. Hail damaged lettuce and 
tender uncovered produce in Woburn and 
sections near there. Many have made 
money this Spring on rhubarb, lettuce 
and Winter squash, but expenses are 
heavy and it takes a large capital to 
do a market garden business, especially 
under glass, Hotbed sash cost. $2.50 each 
for heavy ones and as many have one 
or two thousand of these on the place 
that means several thousand dollars in 
that item alone. Many have more ex¬ 
pensive greenhouses which cost $15,000 
to $20,000 each when fully equipped. 
Manure has to he kept coming all the 
time. This costs $3 or more per core 
by tIn* car under a yearly contract of 
a car every one, two or three weeks, 
according to amount used. Nine to L4 
cords are shipped on each car and $tO 
to $12 per car freight has to he added 
to this. Several horses have to he kept, 
costing from $150 to $350 each. Another 
large item is coal. Some use over a 
ton u day at certain seasons. Hired 
help costs $20 to $35 per month or day 
help at $1.75 per day. Women do much 
of the work at $1.25 per day and are 
better workers than the men in most 
cases. To those expenses add seed, fer¬ 
tilizer and other incidentals, including 
lumber, of which a lot is needed to make 
frames and shutters to cover the sash; 
also straw or burlap mats, and you have 
a large expense account. Potatoes, 
Maine stock, held at $2.10 and over per 
bag; new Floridns, $5.50 per barrel; 
sweets, $3 per crate. Onions nrtn, Con¬ 
necticut Valley, $1.50 per two bushel

dozen; others. 23 to 28 contt?. Best stew

THE RETAILER’S SHARE. 
I am going to say something about the 
so-called 35-rent dollar and the middle¬ 
men. Last Fall as usual I was shipping 
potatoes and onions and was in Pitts¬ 
burg yards. I saw cabbage selling there 
at. $4 per ton, the freight was $2 per ton. 
The commission man got 40 cents per 
ton, the producer $1.80 per ton. .The re¬ 
tailer paid $4 per ton. 1 went uptown 
and found the retailer selling these same 
cabbage at four cents per pound or $s<) 
per ton. I don’t know whether the rail¬ 
road company earned their money or not. 
I know tin' commission man earned his, 
and I feel the retail merchant robbed his 
customers. From careful observation I 
think this is usually the case, and the 
hulk of the margin between producer and 
consumer goes to the retailer. The con¬ 
sumer is partly to blame for this. If 
the consumer would pay cash, buy in 
reasonable quantities and require less 
catering to, I mean soliciting orders and 
delivering, sometimes five or six times 
per day, to the same family, the cost of 
doing business would be cut in two. 
Don’t think I am knocking the 35-eent 
dollar campaign, but let us find out just 
where the trouble is. If the retailer in 
Pittsburg had sold cabbage for 1 cent per 
pound instead of 4 cents I think there 
would have been no cabbage thrown 
away, and a lot of loss would have been 
avoided; the merchant through increased 
sales would have made as much and the 
consumer would have obtained more for 
his money. j. v. hkkdbb.

CROPS. 
May 22. Weather has been warm with 
several large showers; all growing crop 
are doing nicely. Most farmers have 
planted their corn. Some are working 
what was planted in April. Two frosts 
lately have done much damage to early 
gardens and fruit. There will be a few 
strawberries; they are ripe now, selling 
at 12 Vj cents per quart. Live stock is 
doing well—a very few for sale. Hog* 
are scarce and high. Many early beans 
were cut by frost and lots of early 
tomato plants. Some think 95 per cent, 
of the fruit is killed by May frosts. 
Farmers will be late getting their tomato 
crop out. Wheat, $1.05; oats, 50; corn, 
75; mill feed, $28; hay, $12 to $1 4; 
cows, $40_to $80; horses, $100 to $250. 
Butter, 25; eggs, 18; chickens, 12%; 
hogs, $8 per 100; butter fat, 28. Almost 
all cream shipped to Dayton and Colum¬ 
bus. Plenty of farm help at $1.25 per 
day. M .

All have telephones. Some corn up and 
plenty not planted. Apples badly hit 
with frosts. Cherries will be plenty, also 
pears. Potatoes are coming up and look 
promising. y. u. g. 
White Rock, Pa. 
At th(> Woodcrest Farm sale of IIoI- 
steinx held May 28, the cow Aaggie Will 
ker Pietertje No. 121385. born October 8, 
1908, brought $1,370. Slit' has a seven¬ 
thly record of 29.01 pounds butter. The 
buyer was Elias C. Vail, of Vet-batik, 
N. Y. The three-year-old Woodcrest Co 
hint ha Pietje. No. 133829, was sold to 
Dr. L. de L. Harwood, of Montreal, Can 
udn, for $1,225. Six days before she was 
two years old she completed a seven-day 
record of 527.90 pounds milk, 20.44 
pounds butter. 
PARCEL POST CRITICISM.—Criti¬ 
cisms of the parcel post, and suggestions 
for its betterment, were made May 27 by 
representatives of several big mail order 
houses meeting in New York. The meeting 
was called at the request of the Postoffice 
Department. Jacob Rube], general man¬ 
ager of the Standard Mail Order Com¬ 
pany, thought the postoffice should dis¬ 
card sacks and use hampers, which would 
eliminate damage to merchandise. He 
said that when the service was started 
his firm shipped 500 to 800 packages 
daily, but found that, so much damage 
was done by packages being crushed that 
about half their shipments were made 
by express. Mr. Rtibel was opposed also 
to the use of special stamps. He said all 
mail order houses received from cus¬ 
tomers large numbers of stumps, and as 
they seldom sent in parcel post stamps, 
his firm was rapidly accumulating a great 
quantity of ordinary stamps which, under 
present conditions, could not he used. 
Covernment insurance of packages, he 
said, was too expensive and cumbersome, 
lie contended that the government should 
adopt an insurance rate of about five or 
six cents for a hundred dollars’ value. 
Mr. _ Rubel urged that the government 
abolish the zone rate system and advo¬ 
cated a system whereby shippers might 
deliver merchandise in bulk to the post- 
office and have it. weighed in hulk, settling 
with the postoffice daily, making unnec¬ 
essary the affixing of stamps and eliminat¬ 
ing the damage and cost of cancellation. 
It was generally admitted that the use of 
precancelled parcels stamps would d»> 
much to save much annoyance and labor. 
D. O. Haynes, of Haynes & Co., pub¬ 
lishers, said he could not understand why 
the Dost Office Department should dis¬ 
criminate against books by parcels iiost, 
especially as such shipments made con¬ 
venient packages. He pleaded that books 
he admitted to the parcels post, believing 
it .would increase the business of pub¬ 
lishers.
