A Dubious Economy.

The high cost of living is explained,
according to correspondent OIL
New York newspaper, by the lazi-
ness of the home-makers, who no
longer cook. bake, pickle and preserve,
but buy expensive prepared foods from
the baker and grocer. There is no
doubt that modern methods OF pre-
paring foods are large factor in the
case.-Keokuk Gate City.

be something in the suggestion, but
it is not so onesided a proposition as
may appear upon the surface. me
same processes which cheaper the
cost OF production in large factories
equipped with ingenious labor-saving
devices, and where material is bought
in large quantities at lower prices
than the small quantities bought al
retail by housekeepers in the cities
present the same problem that con
fronts the handmade shoe, the hand
made furniture, the handmade Wagon
or carriage. The factory can beat the

wives in cities have discovered tina
when they buy fruit by the bushel, su

paid for the fuel used in cooking the
fruit. the product has cost them al
much as that which they can buy from
the dealers and Gamers. They hav,
the comfort, however, of better flavor
