Values Exaggerated
I am much interested also though not
siderably surprised, to find wide difference in
the estimates of the value of these grains. In
my study of this question have followed closely
the statistics of the United States government in
the Statistical Abstract. In that compilation the
value of the grain crop is annually estimated by
the price prevailing upon December 1 of each
year at the farms This, of course, is not abso-
lutely accurate; but it may safely be assumed
that large purchasers of farm commodities do not
pay materially more than the farm price, and usu-
ally buy at practically the lowest rate which pre-
walls during the yeara rate often below the rate
accepted in the Abstract 1t is true also that the
distillers commonly buy the unstable infe
rior grans-paying often only small part of
the price that good grain commands.
Following the statistics of the government

The discrepancy is particularly noticeable in
the case of corn and barley where the estimated
values are more than doubled
The year under consideration is the fiscal year
1906, in which was valued by the United
States government at 800 cents rye at $50 cents
and barley at Ais cents per bushel The error

which represents that the liquor manufacturers

upon which accurate information is not readily
obtainable. A fairly liberal estimate of it's value
might place it at $6,OoOOOO. To make up the
rest of the sixteen millions the liquor manufac-

the alleged value of the amounts of barley and

valued barley at $1.O0 per bushe price which
it has never reached in the United States Stats
tics since 1868, while corn has been valued at sub
stantialy rs cents per bushel, double the value
assigned to it in government statistics of that
year, and value which it has not had on the
first day of December of any year in the history
of government compilations.

time and effort in the compilation of statistics
relating to the liquor traffic. In much of this
work I have had the assistance of Untel States

has run parallel to the work of men like the
late Edward Atkinson and the statsticans
ployed by the american Grocer but I do not re-
call that, prior to the present occasion, I have
ever had the opportunity of checking" my work
by a comparison with detailed statistics given

There is just now being sent out very widely,
and apparently from very many sources in diff
ferent parts of the country, document entitled
"Some Interesting Facts for Manufacturers,

panes, Farmers and Wage Farmers" This docu-
ment is being mailed by various companies en-
gagged in different lines of business to their Gus
toners and patrons, is found printed on the
backs of hotel and restaurant bills of fare, is
appearing in slightly changed form poster

some central authority which secures its syste-
matte distribution.
The document purports to give the disburse-
rnents of the business of manufacturing intox1-

will be seen by its reproduction herewith, makes
a statement of the consumption of grains IN the
process of manufacturing spirits and malt liquors.
