LARGE Y|ELOS--CHEAPER FOOD
BIG WHEAT YIELD HAS FAR.
REACHING EFFECT.
Mlllers Predict That Flour Prcos WIN
Drop Materially This
Season.

Minneapolis, Aug 15.-An era Of low
living cost Is foreseen in the indica-
tons that the Northwest will have q
bumper crop this year. William M.
Regan of Regain brothers, bakers, said
that with cheaper flour. loaves lof
bread would be larger. Some mill.
ers are sanguine enough to believe
that there will be time shortly
when bakers will go back to the pound
now sold for five cents.
Wholesale meat dealers cay that II
the prospects that now obtain are
borne out later, meat will be cheaper
because feed will be cheaper Poultry
eggs and dairy products will expert
ance similar decreases In price to the
consumer.
Speaking of the cost of flour, H. 8.
Helm Of the Russell-Miller Milling
company said: because of the mag
nificent prospects Of the growing crop
wheat prices have already worked
down 20 cents u bushel in q few
months. In consequence, -four prices
are rs to 80 cents barrel lower than
few months ago.
j. ]. Stamford Of Armour & Co., re-
garded as one of the best authorities
In the Northwest on conditions in the
Wholesale and retail meat market, said
that il the present promise of q large
corn crop were fulfilled there would
be little doubt that there would be a
IN ho hn1n
price of meat.
The effect on the price Of dairy
products is obvious. Farmers who
have not been able to get feed at low
prices have sold their cattle to the
packer rather than bear the expense
Of feeding them. II the herds of the
United States are increased, and the
number Of cattle on farms are increas-
ed on account Of the cheap fodder, the
price Of milk, butter and eggs should
be much lower.
The principal applied to live stock
may be applied to poultry. Farmers
will be able to make a regular bust
ness of their chicken raising instead
Of allowing 1t to be hit or miss in
dustry as In years past, when the chic
kens have been forced to forage for
themselves.
It is estimated by storage men that
there are about $500, 900 pounds more
butter and about 145,O00 more cases Of
eggs in storage now than there was
year ago. The season for storing
winter supplies will not have passed
until Nov. /. The storage men say
that this fact will be another feature
that will tend to reduce the cost of
