Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Farm and Fireside, Vol. 42: The National Farm Magazine; July-December, 1918
If Mrs. Tupper had trod in the well-worn neighbor hood ruts, she would have marketed her produce by the country-store-commission-man-retailer-consumer route; but again she did not. From the first she planned to plug the leakage of farm profits in middlemen' 3 com missions. When she had anything to sell she put on a good-looking tailored suit, a becoming hat, smart shoes and gloves, and went to the city to talk to ultimate consumers. The consciousness of being dressed appropriately not expensively' or ornately - is a valuable aid to the farm saleswoman, Mrs. Tupper thinks.
