TR'ftCkC FXPO* CO/VDU^fC^ Pig. 2.—Principal channels for distribution of grain and grain products. The purpose of this diagram is to list the important agencies handling grain and grain products and, in so far as it is possible by means of a diagram, to show their natural relationship to each other and to the producer and consumer. The width of the line leading to and from each agency indicates in a general way the comparative volume of trade passing through this channel, the arrow indicating the direction of the movement. Commercial intercourse between coordinating agencies is indicated by cross lines. In some instances transactions may take place between agencies in the reverse order in which they are listed, thus bringing about what appears from the diagram to be a backward movement. Such transactions, however, are infrequent and do not influence the general direction of the movement to any great extent. The diagram is not intended to show any precise or sharply defined routes traveled by grain in passing through the channels of trade from producer to consumer, nor is it intended to show the relative merit or value of the service contributed by the several agencies to the present system of grain Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original United States.
