HOW TO AVOID HIM. from Henry 111. of England to the present time is some 700 years; and For much longer than that the middleman has been out of .or with both producer and consumer. A statiue. of ile-nry recites: "Kspocially he it commanded that no forestallcr be siillered to dwell in any town." It defines a forestallcr as "a man who. seeking his own evil gain, t- f!OS lo nwoi Ci)V>h ' lieVrino-s or other articles for stile, as they are being brought by land or water, carries them off, and contrives that they shall bo sold at a dearer rate" 'Such a. man, the statute declares, "is tlie public enemy of tnc whole community and country. He that-, is convict thereof the first iitiM shall lose tho things so lwu-dtl ; the second lire" he shall li;u-S .jiuhniieiit. of the, pillory; the third time he shall be imprisoned and nuke line. And this judgment shall bo dven upon all niiinner of fomstallers ; likewise upon those who have riv-'ti Hum counsel, help, or favor." I'lv middleman has not only persisted, b'd increased and ilourislted as 111 •> green bay tree, until to-day he has jiraclieallv every industry in lus grip. There is some excuse for the existence of tlie middleman where the tyaiiul'aeturer is not able lo get in direct contact with the consumer; but we know of one roa!!v important instance in New Zealand'where the unorganise<! liuving pnhlie has a chniwo to avoid the heavy como-helwi-cii profits of the niiddleiiian.
