PRICES GETTING UP
Cloth Now Worth More Than
Potatoes, Though Some
Forget Fact.

London. (Corrcspondence.)- LON
don is now having n series of rag
days. Wagons decked with Union
Jacks are parading each district or
borough in search of rags. Leading
the horse that draws the wagon is IA
man attired In white. looking much
like the white wings or street clean
ers of American cities, who shakes a
bell and entreats people to bring out
their rags. The rags are wanted to
make up for the shortage of wooden
and cotton raw material for army
clothing. blankets, etc.
Everyone of the % boroughs in tho
metropolitan area Is to be canvassed
before the summer is over This
means that the search for rags will be
carried on in every nook and corner
of the 700 square miles which COM
prises Greater London and that 1t is
planned to make personal visits to at
least half Of the 100000 buildings in
the metropolitan area. No one who
has not been in London long enough
to realize what a great pile it is can
form an adequate conception of what
a vast task lays before these new
found rag pickers.
To meet this competition the private
rag picker has a new line or barter
that is quite unique; he now offers
one to two pounds OF potatoes for
about eight pounds Of rags.
The housekeeper. who perhaps has
not seen potato for weeks. eagerly
accepts this offer. forgetting that the
market value of the potatoes is but
seven cents a pound. while he rags
are worth about rs cents II pound at
present prices.
The rags and clothes collected by
the official rag pickcrs are all torn
into shreds, sterilzed. and redrcssed
before use. They will be welcomed
by the army authorities who are very
short of raw materials for the man ufac-
ture of khaki and army blankets.
