PRICE OF BUTTER
MUCH HIGHER THAN
JUST, SAYS MITCHELL

Chicago. January 2s.-The general
custom of women of demanding the
most select grades Of butter has caused
the retailer to put prices up to point
not justified by wholesale prices, ac-
cording to a statement today by J. b.
Mitchell, president of the Chicago but
ter and egg board. THE actual diff
ference between the most fancy grades
and the next grades of good butter is
so slight that the purchaser frequently
pays a 25 per cent increase in price
for not more than or per cent i'm
provement in quality" he said.
The new tariff law has resulted in
the importation of butter from foreign
countries. Because of the open winter
the fresh production of butter has been
unusually heavy and today the fanciest
grade of butter is sold by jobbers at
271h cents a pound and 1t should go
into consumption at not over 32 cents.
Then there are large quantities of good
table butter. both fresh and storage,
rot good enough to grade as extra,
but fine enough to grace any mans
table. that sells at wholesale at "a to
26 cents a pound, and which should re-
tail from 29 to 81 cents pound
IF the housewife could get out of
hen. expensive habit of asking for only
the best the retailer could sell the next
grade below extra at from 2 to cents
under what he would ask for the best
and the consumer would be just as well
satisfied.

and the government toward each other
that reference is made to the influence
of the Panama canal in creating incon-
ceivably great commercial activities. es-
pecially between the United States and
the Pacific coast both north and south
of the canal.
Yet a day or two ago an economic
thinker who bears some relation to Har-
ward university ventured to say to an
association which is interested In the de-
velopment of American commerce that
he was fearful lest the results would be
found far less than the anticipation. He
pointed out the fact that the canal would
not especially influence our commerce
with eastern South America. He fur
thermore spoke of the two great South
American states, Brazil and Argentina,
intimating that their commerce with the
United States would continue to be much
greater than any conceivable commerce
between the west coast of South Amer
lea and this country There have re-
Gently COlllt SldllSllCS llOill illc 6ONtib-
mental bureau of Washington which ap-
pear to confirm this statement, especially
the statistics which tell of the great
increase in our commercial relations with
Argentina.
This Harvard authority reminded his
hearers that the west coast of South
America could furnish only limited kinds
of commodities available for trade He
did not refer to a fact we'll known to
the merchants of this city who carry on
commerce with the west coast of South
America, that Peru is steadily and
greatly increasing hr cultivation of
cotton and the peculiar kind of cotton
which is harvested in Peru is a staple
which does not come in competition with
cotton grown in the United States, but
is essential for some kinds of cotton
manufacture. He did speak of the enor-
nifty of the nitrate deposits of Chile, but
was of the opinion that these would be
exhausted within the next 10 years.
This view is similar to one which has
been taken by several men of affairs
who were sent from Great Britain for
the purpose of studying the commerce
possibilities with western South Amer
lea which would be created by the open
ing of the Panama canal to navigation
A year or two ago, Frank Brumbell who
has been prominently associated with
the Chesapeake and Ohio railroad, and
with other railroad companies, made a
brief visit to Panama. When he returned
he found that he could not, if he spoke
in accordance with his real opinion, voice
the views of others who have written
and spoken with enthusiasm of the com
mercial development between the United
States and western South America which
is to follow the opening of the Panama

that the commerce which will pass
