FLOUR ALSO SOARING.
Commodity Just 81 More Per Barrel
Now Than Week Ago.

AS a result Of the European war
wheat flour, probably the biggest
household commodity known to this
country, cost wholesalers just 81 more
per barrel Friday night than it did a
week ago. That the prices will go
much higher is predicted, in the event
that the war continues long.
The Benedict Flour and Feed Com
pany, of this city, anticipating the rise
attempted to buy large consignment
of the millers at the figure quoted for
the day, $500. A telegram was re-
ceived saying that the millers could
rot sell at that figure. as flour had ad-
vanced 10 cents. The local firm then
wired the purchase at $3.50, and re-
ceived another message. saying the
price had gone up to $40. The flour
was finally bought at $3.50, and Friday
night was selling at $3.50. as against
$3.50 a week ago Friday.
1t is predicted that If the war lasts
sixty days flour will be selling at 81 per
barrel

I wrote the show. selected my cast and
started rehearsals. Then went to close

show on q fair percentage, thinking the
weather conditions were too unfavor-
able. Then got peeved and bought out
the house for the dates / wanted.
Why-becauSe knew I had good
