HIGH PRICE Of FOOD

Liverymen Blame Wholesaler,
Who Blames Farmer.

Rise in price of horse feed is causing

sentiment.

middlings gone up IS or s6 ton, to say
nothing of hay selling for $3.50 a ton
today, whereas q month ago it was SELL
ing for SIS, livery stable men are seri-
ously thinking of refusing to board horses
at prevailing rates.
The standard price for boarding horse
in Washington is $3.50. One livery man
declared yesterday that while a horse
could be prof1tably cared for last month
at that charge, it is utterly impossible
now.
IF took 100 horses at $3.50 month, "
he declared, II would lose $500 month -
A livery stable man in the northwest
states that he will not take another horse
to board at the rate Of $3.50 month
as long as the price Of equine feed is as
high as now, although he said he will
board the horses he already has.
The whole situation will result, livery
men believe, in a rise in prices for keep
ing horses. There Is no danger. it Is
thought, that any local stable will have
to go out of business.
The cause of the rapid advance in price
of feed is variously attributed by stable
men to speculative buying on the part OF
market manipulators in Chicago and to
local wholesale feed stores.
The liverymen point out that the war
in Europe has prevented expectation of
our bumper crops and therefore prices
ought to be lower than formerly, whereas
since the war started prices of oats.
