TRUST PRICES vs.. WAR PRICES

From the lndex-Appeal, an author
ty on the war between the states,
we learn that trust prices are worse
than war prices, that is TO say, the
prices of articles in daily use are
higher now than they were fifty
years ago, when the exodus of men
from fallow fields to the front left
few producers at home A statistician
has gathered figures showing the
prices of various articles in war
time and now in trust time. These
figures show that in some cases
trusts are more deleterious than
cannon and charging legious:
Flour, war time 81 10: now $7.75.
Pork, war time, lac pound; now

Lard, war time, Sc and lie pound
now 12hc pound
