pound.. or 2.s per cent. of the mean wholesale price of the largest class of poultry; for butter, 0.571 of cent per pound, or 2.4 per cent. of the mean wholesale price; for eggs the costs amount to 0,5s3 of cent per dozen, or per cent. of the mean wholesale price.
 It is evident that as the time of storage lengthens, the costs and their percentage of the wholesale price must be multiplied by the number Of months. If the storage is for 15 months, for instance, the cost per pound ranges from 5.27s cents for fresh mutton to S,572 cents for butter. and is S,s98 cents per dozen for eggs; the costs for 15 months range from 36.5 per cent. of the wholesale price in the case of butter to 57.5 per cent. in the case of fresh mutton.
 The costs of storage for the average length of time during which these commodities are in cold storage are 79 per cent. of the wholesale price for fresh beef; III per cent. for fresh mutton; S.2 per cent. for fresh pork; for butter; and IS per cent. for eggs. Approximately, the wholesale prices of the commodities mentioned are in creased by cold storage to the extent of the percentages just given.
 Cold storage has interposed to
 
 monthly consumption to make it more even throughout the year. It has al- so changed the relative monthly prices throughout the year. These two facts have raised the price level of the com modities covered by this investigation, for a reason apart from the costs of storage. In two ways, then, cold storage has raised the cost of living. The prices that were compiled indi- cate a tendency toward uniformity of prices throughout the year. after cold storage became a large business, for butter, eggs, fresh mutton, and poui- try; but tendency away from uni- formity of price for fresh beef and fresh pork These conclusions are substantiated by two methods of treat ing the price compilations.
 This cold-storage investigation SUD- ports belief that there has been mu6 speculation in some years by men who keep these commodities in cold stor- age. One illustration is given: The egg year 1910-11 had 29 per cent more eggs in cold storage than the preeed- ing year, and yet the price index num- Der went much higher than usual in the months when it is high-Oetober to January-and much lower in the months when it is low-March to July following.
 At a time when there was plenty of eggs in storage, the wholesale price Of eggs scared to 4S cents in Boston in November and December and to 45 1-2 cents in New York for nearby State eggs. There was an apparent mis- | take of the storage men in eyeresti- l mating the consumption of the public | at exorbitant prices, because so large | was the unsold quantity at the begin ming of the next egg year in the | spring of 1911. that the wholesale price 1 of eggs fell in April to IS I-2 cents l in Boston and New York, and the | storage men dumped on the foreign | market the greatest quantity of eggs ever exported from this country in a | year.

From the returns made by the ware housemen it is inferable that the fresh beef, mutton, and pork, the u-try, butter, eggs, and fish received into cold storage in a year amount to a weight of at least 1000, O00,0 900 pounds and very likely to a quarter of a billion more. The eggs received into storage in a year are approximately 13 1-2 per cent. of the farm productions the fresh feef is over per cent. of the commercial slaughter of cattle; mutton, over per cent. of that slaughter of sheep and lambs; and fresh pork, Il 1-2 per cent. of that slaughter of hogs; and butler, 25 per cent. of the creamery produc-

October are the heaviest storage months; most of the fish Is received fresh and is frozen, and after the lapse of some time is sent to ware houses at places or consumptIon, @ where it is stored again. These two periods of storage are combined Tn this investigation.
 During the three heavier cold-stor- age months of 1910-11, AT per cent Of the fresh beef placed in cold storage into the warehouses;; 59,S per cent. of the fresh mutton. 59.2 per cent. of the dressed poultry, 70 per- cent. or the butter and 79.4 per cent. of the eggs
 It is established by this investigation that 712 per cent. of the fresh beef re- ceived into cold storage in the year 1s09-1O was delivered within three months; 2S.S per cent. of the fresh mutton, 95.2 per cent. of the fresh pork, 75.7 per cent. of the poultry, 402 per cent of the butter, l4.3 per cent. of the eggs. and 35.5 per cent. of the fish.
 The percentage of receipts delivered in seven months is e9 for fresh beef, 993 per cent. for fresh mutton, S9.9 per cent for fresh pork, 96.1 per cent. for poultry. S8.4 per cent. for but ter, 75.S per cent. for eggs, and 64.9 per cent. for fish.
 saThe important observation to be made" declares the Secretary, 'is that the receipts into cold storage are en- tirely or very nearly exhausted by the deliveries aout of cold storage within 10 months"
 The fresh beef received into cold storage during the year beginning with May. 1909, was kept there on the av- craze for 23 months; the fresh mutt ton, A months; the fresh pork, 09 of a month; and the butter, A months. The poultry received during the year beginning with March, 1909, was kept on the average 2.4 months; the eggs, 30 months; and the fish, 6.7 months.
 The costs of cold storage. are run ming against the prices of stored com moditfes month by month. The own CTS must use good Judgment and take their goods out of storage before the costs of storage, added to the origin al cost of the goods and perhaps some profit. will raise the total amount Of cost above the market price. It is problem of the future,
 The Warehouseman has rate of charge for space for each commodity, in some cases for storing for the sea- son, and in others by the month. An other cost of storage is interest, which is not always theoretical cost, and third cost is insurance.
 If these three costs are obtained tTiev amount to 0.437 of 1 cent per pound of fresh beef per month, or 3.5 per cent of the mean wholesale price of beef during the heavy cold-storage months of 1910; for fresh mutton the costs are 0352 of 1 cent per pound, or BS per cent. of the mean wholesale erice: for poultry, 0.446 of 1 cent per

ton.
 The Secretary closes this feature of his report as follows:
 .This is no indictment of the men who keep foods in cold storage, ex- cept in So far as they sometimes spec ulate, nor need they be indicted for offenses in order that the public eeo- homie interest in their business may be made to appear. The foregoing matter, it may be supposed, establish es that. The man who places food in cold storage is somewhat in the sit uation of the man who forestalls the market. He may not attempt to do, but the power may be temptation.
