BOOSTING THE
FOOD PRICES
Scarcity Of Fruits and Vege+
tables May Effect Canned (
Products
FIVE PER CENT.
INCREASE ALREADY SHOWN

PHILADELPHIA. Pa, Aug. 81.
stapls articles of food. eggs. butter.
meats and green vegetables, are again
up in price. A canvass of the markets
yesterday showed that an advance Of
per cent. on all necessities has been
prevalent a fortnight.
Commission men, produce dealers,
butchers and dairymen are unanimous
in expressing the opinion that the re-
cent severe drought throughout the
country is responsible for the higher
prices.
One sequel to the prevailing high
prices and the scarcity OF certain
fruits and vegetables will be the con-
sequent rise in the price of canned
goods next winter. Many of the large
canning companies. which operate IN
Nav Jersey and Delaware, are doing
little business this summer. The sup
ply of peas, for instance, was exhaust
ed in a few weeks. No peas were
canned this year in any quantities
This vegetable is eagerly sought by
housewives, and the dearth Of obtain
able cans next winter will cause prices
to soar to unheard of limits. it is said.
Peaches, usually large part of the
canning industry, will also be affected
There will be plenty of corn and to
matoes for preservation, but a scar
city of the smaller fruits, such as rasp-
berries and strawberries.
The dairymen report steady in-
crease I'm butter prices. Butter of the
best variety is selling now for 35 to
40 cents. Soon It is expected TO 60 to
80 cents for the best quality. Eggs,
retailing at Is to 2S cents a dozen, ara
scarce, owing to the heat, but proyi-
] sioners say the storage houses are full.
and that as soon as the hot weather
ends the price will tumbls.
Beef, lamb and pork are high, though
not unseasonably so for this season.
| The largest dealers in meats say that
| cornfed cattle always command better
prices during August The wild cattle
/ of the Western plains shipped east of
/ Chicago after slaughter are admittedly
an inferior stall-fed cattle. The flesh
of the grazing herds is detsriorated by
| eating heritage. Carefully watched
stock naturally produces the highest
prices.
The men in the Philadelphia mar
kets blame the Chicago packers for the
advance in hogs and sheep.
One bright spot in the otherwise
i pessimistic outlook is the prospect for
a big apple crop. The crop for 1911 is
expected to exceed that of last year by
100000 barrels Experts declare thai
