Edif0rioI Comment.
The Rising Cost of Living.

The bureau of labor has just issued a
report dealing with the retail prices of
food from 1890 to 1904, showing in
detail the enormous increase in the
cost of the necessaries of life. This in
crease has been especially great since
the beginning of the new century.
OF 30 principal articles, the prices Of
no fewer than 26 were higher last year
than the average for the l0-year period
1890 to 1900. The few that have de-
creased in cost were evaporated apples
vinegar, coffee and prunes.
Bacon increased BIS per cent; eggs.
300 per cent; dry or picked pork, 25.S
per cent; fresh pork, p per cent; corn
meal, 2l.5 per cent; and potatoes 2l.3
per GEN..
Chickens, once within the reach of
nearly all, had risen 2O7 per cent in
price; -four had advanced 1913 per cent;
ham, Is per cent; lard, l73 per cent;
fresh beef, from 1913 to l3.4 per cent;
butter, 8 per cent; milk, 6.3 per cent.
For the United States, taken as
whole, the average cost of food per fami
by in 1890 was S3lS2O. In 1896, the
year of lowest prices, it foil to S29676,
and in 1904 it reached the highest point
of the period, 5347l9 This was S5O34
or II per cent greater than ia 1896
In 1900 the average family expendi-
ture for food was S3lS 20; in 1891,
S3225j; in 1892, $4,000; in 1893,
'S3244l; in 1894, S3O0Sl; in 1895,
S3O3 81; in 1896, 5296.7G; IN 1897.
s29924; in 1898, S3O6.7O; in 1899
s309l9; in 1900, s3l4.l6; in sl9Ol.
S326.9O; in 1902, s3l46l; in 1903.

Production OF food supplies Secre-
tary Wilson is quoted as saying, has
been decidedly heavier this year. Ia
consequence he predicts lower prices

necessities
