In this North. potatoes came under that head for a time. but potatoes were some here on other oc- casions when there was not a war in In a recent Issue The Toronto Tele- gram gives a comparison of prices in this war and the last and comes to the conclusx‘on that the control that was to keep lnflafi-an down, and prices the same. does not apear to have accom- plished any such purpose. Anyone who will dismiss; this idea with the reply that Toronto prices do not apply here should remember that prices here dur- ing the last war were no higher for the usual lines o! foodstuffs than obtained in Toronto. If there are higher to-day than Southern prices. the reason must be traced to the regulations and their enforcemenfs.

She paid off the .loan after six months at a cost in interest of only 5.2.40. \ This is a true story. Only the name has been altered.
