DAVE CASTOR WILL
MANAGE SALLY
LEAGUE TEAM

Dave CASTOR, the man who gave
Muckalee fans pennant, has signed
to manage the Jacksonville (Sally
League) team for the coming season.
Americas fans will be interested in
the news and will wish for Davie the
best of luck and success.
Manager Dave is an experienced
manager and ball player. He has seen
service from the Cotton States to the
Southern and Federal leagues. In the
Sally league for several years he was
star of the first water. In the
Southern league he was well up among
the sluggers and was one of the fast
est base-runners in Kavanaugh's cir
cult.
AS a manager, Dave has the distinc-
ton of never having handled the reins
over a team that finished lower than
third. His sensational winning of the
gonfalon in the Georgia State last sea-
son only adds to his long string of
wins.
Davie will probably play an out
field position with the Sally league
team and if his work is up to the brand
i displayed here last season, Jackson
vile will not only have a corking good
manager, but a mighty nifty little out
fielder and slap-stick performer.

This, however, is not true of each
article. Flour, for instance, was 5.3
per cent higher in 1909 than in 1914
Sugar, which reached a remarkably
high point 1853 per cent in August.
1914. was 10 per cent lower for the
year 1911 than for the year 1911, and
was also lower for the yearl 1914 than
for the years 1910 and 1912. All meats
were higher in 1914 than in any of the
seven preceding years.
The figures show that the highest
point during 1914 was reached in Sep
TENDER, when the price of all food
was IL per cent higher than the av-
erage price for 1913, and the lowest
point was reached in April, when the
price was 3.5 per cent lower than the
average price for 1913. Except for
lard and such articles as are affected
by seasonal changes, the highest price
during the year was either in August
or September.

If you are working man, or if you
are not it cost you a whole lot more
to fed, clOthe and pay rent for your
family during 1914 than it ever has
cost any other man during the history
of the country. The government sta
tistics show that the expense of eX-
istence is increasing each year.
In 1914 the cost Of filling the market
basket of the average working mans
family was $668 higher than it was in
1913, and $6.43 higher than it was in
1907, calculating on relative price fig
ures announced today by the federal
bureau of labor statistics as a result
of its most recent investigation OF
retail prices.
These figures represent prices Of Is
articles aggregating approximately
toW-thirds of the expenditure for food
by the average Workingman's family.
The cost of these articles in 1913 was
S333.90, making the 1914 cost $340.58,
while in 1907 it was $2S015. Calcu-
lating these amounts as twothirds of
the workingmans family food expen-
diture, the total spent for food in
these years would be- 1913, $500.85;
1914, $510.S7. and 1917, $1,000.

rest by floating.
