CAUSES OF HIGHER
Price FOR BREAD
increase in Wheat Forces Price
Up and Size Down

Washington, Oct. 13.-The extent of
increases in the price of bread. or
decreases in the weight of loaves
during the four months from Nav Is
to Sept. s is detailed in figures from
forty-five Of the country's prin cipal
industrial centers made public today
by the bureau of labor statistics Bak-
ers, in reports to the bureau, gave
as reasons the increased cost of ma
terials and ingredients, especially
flour Changes in prices and weights
have been most numerous during the
last two months which the figures
cover.
Of 210 brands Of bread that re-
tailed for five cents and weighed fif-
teen ounces or over on May Is, only
fourteen remained at the same price
and weight on Sept. Is. Some bakers
are reported to have met cost ad-
vances by disseminating wholesale
businesses, substitution Of brands
presumably cheaper, and elimination
of the return of stale bread.
Comparative figures regarding
wheat and flour prices and the aver
age retail price Of bread show that
the wholesale price of wheat was "a
on May Is. the wholesale price Of
flour 81 per cent. higher, the retail
price % per cent. higher for the same
period, and the average retail price
Of bread II per cent. higher.
Another table shows the retail mar
gin of prices for flour and bread. In
May -four was S5.48 a barrel, whole
sale and s7.62 RETAIL leaving a mar
of A
ton, retailers expenses and profits,
and usually jobbers expenses and
profits between the mill and the re-
taller.
In September, the margin was
$3.50 a barrel. 1t is made clear that
the figures are market margins ra-
Their than profits. as retail prices do
not always follow wholesale prices
promptly The retail price of bread
before baking, assuming 800 loaves
to the barrel. in May was $.O1S. In
Septembe Der 1t was $.25.
In May the wholesale value of
1915 ounces Of -four was IS cents;
the average retail price for sixteen
pounds of bread before baking being
Sc cents, making a margin of 3S
cents between the wholesale price of
flour in 16 ounce loaf of dough and
the retail prce Of the sale loaf baked
The margin figures do not include the
cost of retailing and the retailers
profits
Brands of bread on Sept. IS we're
being sold at II IL ounces for five
cents in one city. In another the
price was increased and the weight
was decreased at the same time. Ere
puent1y, however, increase in price
has been accompanied by increase in
weight In some cities the price was
increased, the weight remaining the
same.

LADBURY MAY GO
BACK TO BORDER
Captain of Company ] Has Chance
to Enter Regular Army With
Captains Rank.

1t was stated by military authori-
ties today that it is highly probable
that Captain H. F. Ladbury of Com
pany l may return to Nogales in the
near future to accept position, car
rying with it the rank of captain, in
the regular army.
Captain Ladbury is a native of the
country in which the soldiers have
been during the past four months and
there is no one more familiar with
it than he. He is also familiar with
the type of men found there. On
top of all this, Captain Ladbury is
finished soldier and is recognized by
the military authorities as such. While
on the border he showed his great
ability and this opportunity comes as
result.
If he goes to the border, Captain
Iadbury will be on so-called de-
tached duty. That is, he will have
the rank of captain but will be with
out a permanent command. He will
be assigned to any command that re-
quires his services and in this manner
