The Kenosha telegraph. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1860-1888, 1865-11-09


OtH THEORY JUSTIFIED have been
publishing for weeks past, articles showing
how money might be made by the invest
ment OF small amount of capital in a few
acres of land in the vicinity of Kenosha, and
raising fruits, berries, vegetables, &c, for the
Chicago market AS an evidence of the
correctness of our theory, we take the fol-
lowing item from the Chicago Tribune of
Tuesday last.
HOW TO gAKE MONEY.
The great rapidity with which Chicago is
increasing IN population renders the means
and capital heretofore invested in supplying
us with the necessaries of life wholly mad
equate. In no branch of business can CAPT
tai be invested more profitabIy than in feed
ing Chicago. In support of this we quote
Tor comparison the prices of few OF the
leading articles of common necessity in
Chicago and within accessible distances of
it.
Our readers will judge how far freights
can account for the following differences in
prices. Potatoes at Beloit, Wis, 4Oc per
bushel, do at Bloomington, Ill. 40; do at
Darlington, Wis, 4oc.; do at Animosa,
Iowa. 35c.; do at Mineral Point, Wis, 30a
Soc; do at Lansing, Mich, 25a30c, do at
Dowagiac, Mich, 40c.; do at Grand Haven,
4Oc.; do at Chicago 63c. on track, at retail
SOC. per bushel.
Eggs are quoted ar Beloit SOC dozen
Bloomington, SOC; Quincy, SOC; Darlington,
15c; Animosa, Iowa, 15c; Mineral Point,
Wis, tic; Lansing, Mich, 18a20c; Dowag,
lac, Mich, SOC; Grand Haven, Mich, SOC !;
Chicago, 38a4Oc.
Apples are quoted at Beloit, $1.oOa$2 90;
Bloomington, $175a$2 %; Quincy, $1.20a
S1.5O; Lansing, Mich, 75ca$1 90; Chicago
$455a$5.5O
We might continue these quotations al
moat indefinitely. The above are sufficient
to show that no oil well in Pennsylvania
will pay a better profit on the investment
than any smart Spectator can make by
investing like capital in supplying Chica-
go with fuel and provisions. We do not
expect men to come to our relief through
philanthropic motives They may and will
make heavy profits on the enterprise. We
are certain, however, that part Of our pres
ent enormous prices arises from the fact
that temporarily the amount of capital in
vested in supplying our home market is
wholly inadequate to the demand.
