War Has Vital Effects
on Italy's Citizenry
War Has Loosened the Bonds Italy In
dustrially to G Germany---Poor People
Have Faired Better Than Rich and
Are in Good Spirits.

quick deSlers and producers, NUM-
cipalities have done much to stop such
abuses. Municipal shops have been
opened everywhere. These sell neces
stiles generally ut the prices which
obtained before the war. First service
and preference are given to the poorer
classes.
5, In the municipality owned stores milk
sells for eight cents pint, Private
deslera- ask ten cents. Municipal bread
and the private stock cost about the
] same amount The common or war
variety Is sold at four cents a pound,
while the luxury kind brings six cents
a pound. The bread is all of brOwnish,
puffy sort, in which water is generally
used. White -four is allowed only in
making of cake.
Meats are especially high. A pound
Of the best out beef costs thirty-six
cents in the municipal stores and fifty
, cents In the private places. Except in
/ the case of milk, the municipal sup
plies are always inferior to the pri.
vate.
Practically all cooking is now done
by gas. Coal has become the rarest
luxury. Anthracite. which before the
war brought $13 ton. now sells for
$40. Even coke has jumped from SO
to $32 ton.
Wearing apparel also has increased
in cost. The price of dresses for wo.
men and suits for men are at least
twenty per cent higher now than be.
fore the war.
The rich generally have been the
hardest hit. especially those with
holdings in Austria and Germany. In
many instances war has robbed them
Of at least half their fortunes. Auto
mobiles have had TO be given up and
servants reduced in numbers Even
hands that had never known work
suddenly have bad to toll.
A.middle class family of six, living
on 81 day before the war, now must
spend almost SO. This expenditure
will provide daily supplies Of wine
and vegetables and meat once day.
Clothing absolutely necessary gener-
ally is reckoned In this outlay, but
house rental usually is not.
In many ways the poor have suffered
materially the least by the war. The
beggars are the single exception. Their
suffering is pathetic. They have been
accustomed to look mostly to the
travelling public for aims. but now no
travelling public touches Italy.
The poor. however, generally are
in good spirits. They live for the most
part on wine and vegetables, which
have increased little or not at all In
price. Moreover. the effect of the
absence Of fathers, husbands and sons
at the front is partly counterbalanced
by the wartime work of the women
and children at home. Civic and mill.
tary organizations pay them unusually
we'll for making clothing and other
articles, necessary for the soldiers in
he field.

GROWING BEANS

That trucking is becoming extern

by the following from the Fort Pierce
Tribune of December Is:
"Figures collected and compiled by
The Tribune indicate that St. Lucie
county's acreage in green and wax
beans this season will total between
1900 and 1,500 acres. Figures col
lected from all parts of the county
indicate that approximately 70G acres
are now planted to beans or are be-
ing planted, and that by March 1st
this acreage will be more than doubled
in new paintings. Bean shipments are
already being made from all points in
the country along the main line of the
Florida East Coast railway. The sea-
son should reach it's height about Feb
ruary list, and shipments should con-
tinue until April 1st. Estimating the
production at the low figure of 100
