eggs. A Chicago egg dealer is said to
have 'cornered" the present storage egg

be remains to be seen.
Varying Changes in Prices.
From the foregoing it will be seen there
have been so many periods of high
prices and low prices, occasionally strik-
ing happy medium, that present con-
ditions are not likely to remain forever,
and things will eventually settle to where
they belong. -
However, under conditions now ex-
listing many people find prices growing so
much faster than their income that they
are unable to make both ends meet and
the problem is hard one to solve. In
comparing present prices with those of
the Civil War days and for the few years
following, there are many other things to
be taken into consideration. The habits
and mode OF living have changed and
there are many other expenses besides
the mere items of food and clothing, to
be taken into consideration and it is i'm
possible to go back to the simple life to
the extent that some people would make
us believe. -,

Believing that information on the
various prices of foodstuffs for the past
seventeen years may be of interest to the
thrifty housewife, as well as to the man
who pays the bills, the following quo

AS TO PRICE REGULATION

State or Federal attorneys who con-
template action against dealers in COM
modities when prices in those commodi-
ties are raised in concert do not concern
themselves with the economic justifca-
ton for the changing of those prices.
This point was brought to the attention
of our readers yesterday morning. Pro-
secutors who challenge advances in the
price of milk or laundry or what not act
only in support of the laws against con-
spiracy. To boost prices to any figure
whatever is not illegal. The offense is
in the fact of combination.
Now it is fitting to ask whether such
a law serves the principles of economic
justice. If strictly enforced it obviously
would not. It is directed, of course,
against attempts at extortion with no
motive other than extortion. But it
may be construed to apply to cases in
which the motive is only legitimate and
the act in question quite necessary
When standardized commodity in daily
use no longer yields profit to the dealer
at present prices he is required either
to raise the price or retire from business.
TO raise the price when others do not is
to drive business inevitably to his COM
petitors. But with competitors agree
ing, the necessary advance can be made,
without causing any customer to leave
one dealer for another. Such a COM
bination would be morally and economi-
cally justified. 1t should not, therefore,
be illegal.
On the other hand, a butter and egg
dealer, regardless Of the visible supply
Or demand in his own territory, might,
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1916-11-29

by custom, accept arbitrary quotations
made at Elgin or Chicago. He might
thus be selling eggs at SO cents which he
could afford to sell at IS. Yet he is not
engaged in any combination to fix
prices. Therefore, he is out of the reach
OF the law though entirely wrong and
extortionate in his practices.
Obviously our laws are clumsy and
inadequate. 1t is clear, furthermore,
that II the present acute food situation
continues we shall be obliged to invoke
new machinery for the just regulation
of prices.-St. Paul Pioneer Press.

Of deeds of valor DER hill and glen
On stained battlefelds in blood.
On Bunker Hill, at Lexington
Of Triumphs on sea and land,

With the bugles blast and fife and
drum,
Reverberating thru the Armory
Orders came to march away
To uphold the flag and dear Country.

Sons of such sires are not too proud
to fight.
Tho called, but waiting, watchful
Guardsmen now,
By Chieftains of the lawless Plutocrat
Clan,
There shines brighter luster on the
soldiers brow
To save, not destroy, the misguided
Mexican.
The foeman's met, the victory's ours
In the battle of ballots for good govern
Untruth, Error, Malice are slain, the
flag endures
For Army, Navy and President.
This is a song for Pfaender's Men,
And of Llano Grande where they stood,
Once, a fever-laden, sand and cactus
glen,
Now, a bealthful, well-ordered neigh
borhood.
Such progress, duty and labor done
In annals of war yet will show,
Greater deeds and laurels nobler won,
Than by making graves in Mexico.
The maids and matrons' prayers ere
long
For Peace will be heard in Heavens
dome
And Martial strains and joyous song
AS the boys come marching home.
