As to my inquiry, it is worth noting that marketing was on the list of excluded activities from overtime.  So the question still stands in a modified form; who cares about restricting overtime for people marketing agricultural produce (and I guss the answer is, their employers). 

Well, marketing might not mean dreaming up advertising campaigns, it might be the whole process of bringing perishable goods to market. Of course that opens up the question of why the redundancy with the other activities mentioned, but as you noted this isn't exactly an elegant turn of phrase.

The period on which you chose to focus (1930) would not be construed as one which best exemplified free market principles. 

Which period would best exemplify the operation of free market principles?


Please note this isn't meant to be a political gotcha - just wondering if there is a good choice.
