The big difference in prices 10 not
caused by the exorbitance OF dealers. but
by the fact that there is tremendous
waste in storing. transportation, and
other costs, all Of which the dealer has
to make up by adding on to the price Of
the FISH," says Mr.. Sherman. by going
to the municipal market the consumer
can save 1S2 per cent Of the price charged
by the dealers at the cost Of very little
Inconvenience"
The present shortage OF beef, which
forces the housekeepers to fall back on
fish Is caused by the usual summer
scarcity. Of cattle. According to statistics
complied by the Department OF Agri-
culture, the supply will be normal by fan.

HIGH COST YOUR OWN FAULT

tsLaziness on the part of housekeepers
of the District is the cause Of the high
cost Of living"
This IL the keynote Of a statement by
John II. Sherman. superintendent Of
weights, measures and markets. He
says that there IL a difference Of lse per
cent between the prices Of fish AT retail
markets and at the municipal fish mar
ket at the Eleventh street wharf. In
his opinion. the argument that con-
venience makes up for the higher prices
does not hold good. The municipal mar
ket. while not In the most convenient
part of the city. is easily reached. In
conclusion. Mr.. Sherman says. Lazy
living costs high"
