How Prices Go up.

An incident which is being told in
the wool trade may, perhaps, shed
some light on the way in which prices
Increase when the fundamental value
remains virtually unchanged. 1t may
also Illustrate how something akin to
camOuflage is utilized by businessmen
to deceive even themselves into be-
lieving there is shortage. One deal
er sold consignment of wool at 61
cents Il pound, and it was resold sever
al times, each dealer making 10 cents
Il pound profit. In the course of time,
the merchant first referred to heard
that certain firm had an allotment of
wool for sale and asked the price. On
being told that the present owners had
purchased at 81 pound, and were
willing to sell at S1.25, the inquirer
said, "All right, I'll take 1t and send
you check. Where Is the wool?" The
answer came: ION the third floor of
your own storage warehouse, where it
has been ever since you sold it orig
inally. Science Monitor.
