U. S. Experts Show Upward
Trend Of Living,
COAL ALSO MUCH HIGHER
Bacon Is the Only Commodity to Show
a Decrease, and That Only One

The most marked upward trend oil
the cost OF living is disclosed in the
federal bureau of labor's report of an
investigation of prices for the last ten
years, conducted in the important in
dustrial centers of thirty-twO states.
Fifteen most important articles OF
food, as well as coal, comprising two
thirds of workingman's needs, were
investigated. In several cities the in
vestigators gathered statements OF
merchants on the cost of living, and
specimens of these are published in
the report.
On June IS, 1912, the report shows,
fourteen of the fifteen articles OF food
were higher than a year before, and
ten had advanced in the last ten years
more than fifty per cent over the av-
erage retail prices for the ten year
perior-1S90-fS99
During the last decade prices of po-
tatoes changed most and sugar the
least. Their advance were 11.9 and SO
per cent respectively. During the last
year. bacon, which decreased just one
tenth of per cent, was the only one
of the fifteen principal articles of food
that showed a decline in price, while
nine of the fifteen advanced more than
10 per cent, varying from "a per cent
for milk. to 1876 for round steak. or
the fifteen, only eggs, butter, milk and
sugar were lower, but the price Of
