Retailers of bread in Barre are falling
in line with retail dealers in other cities
by raising the price of their output to IL
cents per loaf, although in one or two in
stances where bakers conduct their own
retail stores, the Decent charge prevails.
Those who are dependent upon bakers in
other towns and cities TO supply their re-
tail trade are not sure that the jump in
bread prices viii stop at the l2-eent
mark, and local bakers who are staying
by the original price are understood to
be agreed that the price cannot remain |
at 10 cents for long. One dealer who has |
been associated with the retail grocery /
trade for many years says he cannot re- /
member when eggs sold for As and 80 /
cents per dozen at this season. In other |
dealers go back to Civil war |
times before finding parallel TO the
situation.
