The response, in the case of hogs, to the increase in fatten- ing feed will be more speedy, but there will be a greater num- 1 her of people to" be fe-d, greater: in ratio than the increase in! meats.

The tron- | ble is not by any means whollyl due to a lack of our early thrift and economy in present day lab- orers. How much of the high cost of living is attributable 90` the desire of manufacturers to keep salaries at a minimum and capitalists for excessive divi-| dendson watered stock, I am not prepared to say. Certainly some! of it arises thus. - N0 Relief In Sight.` Nature accomplished a- great; deal last year for the country, in blessing the farmers. PI'0baDly| the largest crops as a whole, ev- 9 er grown, were grown in 194.5-,i and the farms will contribute] heavily towards the general; prosperity. These vast crops ought to contribute in lessening. the prices of food and dairy pro- I ducts in due course, but wheth- er they will do so depends upon a variety of factc.-r.-3 outside of. the mere production of these` crops. Many men and varied in- terests come between the pro-= ducers of these necessities and the consumers of the same, and: they will not surrender their; chances for gain unless from; necessity. The number of beeves in Canada are so far re- duced that they can hardly be had by feeders in numbers suf-i flcient to swell the amount of} high_class meats particularly.

Paul Van Heeht, of Marseilles, France, says the ex- isting feeling between the labor. , ers and the industrial pl:;iuts is increasing. Class feelim; at such a pitch that many. prior to the war, refused to work; pro- duction is falling off and many were so poor that they could not buy even horseflesh. One of Boston s greatest merchants re- cently observed that our deinaiirl for luxuries is increasing faster than the productiveness of lab- or, and that it grows more acute each year, in fact, each month, because that state of affairs continues.

The increased cost of living is the question of the hour in all countries and all e-limes. it is felt everywhere. It is world. wide. And` the most peculiar; part of it all is that the question, continues to be an unsolved pi-o-_ blem. Even the opinions of :!:e' keenest students of economic; conditions differ in their an- alysis, and in spite of all ex- planations and proposed I`t`l1lt`- dies, the prices of househoidl necessities continues to a.rise..

This report is based upon the weekly expend.- tures of a typical iamil) of five -persons, and gives the average ietail prices of 32 articlu-~: o*.'{ food, of coal, wood, and coal oil_ I together with the rent of an a-l erage workingman's home in each of the localities in the Do minlon having a population ofg 10,000 and over.

But in buying the hygienic article we have the aposive assurance that absolute purny characuudzes the goods ;while in course of preparation; ithat they were immune while in ;the store, from any contamina- on or carekssnessin handhng, and that lnnnan hands never touchedthenifronithetnnethey }were received in the raw state, jfronithe grower or producen ;iuuilthoy were packed and ready for the table.

Sanitarians are daily advising us to buy goods .in or- iginal packages, and this advice is being generally observed for hygienic, if for no other reasons. [And so. if mother is getting ;stung she seems to like it, as |the demand for package goods is ..increasing daily, and we keep right on paying for paper, card- lboard and tin containers. Package foods are hygienic. Of course there is a saving in buying goods in bulk---but it is |simply an imaginary saving. In bulk goods one must be ever on tgthe alert for dust, -dirt and in- sects in handling. In the pack- age article this is obviated. The goods are clean, and that s some- `ithing. Then there is the econ- xomy in buying package `goods `because they can be used way idown to the bottom of the con- itainer, and there is no waste. nun vvvv I9 knuv .53.. en:-- J~ A1 Drove s- n nd 1111 L uu IL I; [It] pl C1tfl.'CllUt'. And thls seIf-same theory ,ho1-ds good in making all of the purchases for your home, wheth- rer it be groceries, drugs, wear- ing apparel or other necessities.

The anthracite coal compamies t mine and ship about seventy L-l'I1iiOI1 tons of coal annually- L nearly six millions a, month- . and whenever a mine suspends or a strike occurs, it shortens ~ the production, so until labor 'Itroubles are settled and the min- I-ers work in harmony with the -tcoal operators, we may look for .'fair prices for coal. But coal ttoday is not exhorbitant in price I,when you take other commodi- , ties into consideration. 2 Put the question of why gro- :;cc_-rues are so high up '4) the gro- icer and he will no doubt cl.-nim that he has been il'lal(- the goat simply for the reason that he (is ;the most convenient one upon =whom to lay the blame. He will say rents are higher than they were a decade ago; that help is `higher; mu tell you the diifer- zence between what it costs him .to deliver his goods today and ,what it did ten years ago; that ,there IS an increased demand ;upon the part of his customers for better service; that many food products cost m0I'e because of the .growing demand for ;package foods" and trade- |mar'k goods; that local sanitary, [hygienic and pure food require- lments lend added cost to the ne_ eessities of the table. And all of this is true too. The Grocer- s Side Of It. An interesting View of the groc-er s side of the argument was given to me the other day by Mr. Ed. Armstrong, the Eliza- het}; street grocer, in which he sau :- `LI I, I \.'loIll,I u I believe the grocer should be completely absolved. The blame should be placed upon the lshoulders of the consumer. I hold to the theory that if the housewife were to purchase many of the things that seem high to- day in the same loose shape or bulk that she bought them ten years ago, crackers, oatmeal and other commodities like her mother did before her. there would be a different tale to tell.
