A Cow for $3.50 and 40 Glasses of Beer
for Two Cents.
Two cents or its equivalent would
buy a pair OF chlckens-in the four
teenth century. For the alu of a,
nickel one could acquire a goose fit for
a Christmas dinner-in the fourteenth
century.
a penny would purchase a dozen
strictly fresh eggs-in the fourteenth
century; while for 2 cents the brewer
was compelled by law to sell three gall
Ions of beer. the equivalent of forty
eight glasses. (
A man could buy the finest of fat.
sheep for "a cents. A COW was more
expensive, says the Mechanic, but S1.50

cents a quarter, though after a great
storm or in a time of grievous famine

Pasture and arabic lands were

The other side of the story, so far as
the laboring man is concerned, comes
IN the following figures. Three cents a

ordinary laborer. Even at harvest
time cents was the highest amount

House rent was SO low that he lord
mayor of London paid only $4 so a year
to his landlord The chancellor had an
