Excerpt from Third Annual Report of the Department of Foods and Markets: For the Year Ending December 31, 1916 Other means having failed, the Department. Of Foods and Mar kets was organized to help find a ready and profitable market for the products of New York State farmers. Due to the want of such a market, many of the agricultural industries of the {state were on the decline and in danger of disappearing entirely. The cost of distributing such products, as could be sold at all, averaged 65 cents out of the dollar paid by the consumers of food products. The producer realized an average of less than 3 5 cents. Many of the finest products of the State wasted on the ground because there was no market for them that would pay the cost of distribution without regard at all to the cost of production.
