SHEEP.

The sheep industry of the North
west is increasing rapidly in the
states of Minnesota, North and South
Dakota and northern Wisconsin. This
fact was recognized by the United
States Government last week when
they designated the Twin Cities as a
receiving and distributing station for
wool. The Government recognizes the
principle Of cooperation by authoriz-
ing the Equity Cooperative Exchange
of st. Paul as a receiving firm for
wool, and any farmer wishing the full
Government price for his wool can Sc
cure the same by consigning his ship
ment to the Equity Cooperative Ex-
change, st. Paul, MINI.

COST OF LIVING
HAS DOUBLED
Bureau of Labor Shows That Cost Of
Maintaining Family in the Unit
ed States Has Doubled Within the
Past Eighteen Years.
ALL LUxURIEs ARE EXCLUDED.
The Federal Government Has Desig-
mated the Equity Cooperative Ex-
change at St. Paul as the Wool Mar
ket for the Middle West.

The United States Bureau Of Labor
statistics reports that a wage of ST.
500 year will only provide "the
minimum standard of comfort"
In other words, this governmental
agency declares that if worker does
not receive SIS a day for 300 working
days in the year he cannot support
a family in the most restricted kind
Of comfort.
In "a principal American cities the
lowest annual wage should be 81 $50.
The cost of maintaining q family
in this country has doubled since 1900,
according to the United States bur-
eau Of labor statistics. Figures just
made public show that the average
cost in 1900 was $769. During 1917
the cost of the same commodi-
ties was $1,401. Food alone in 1917
cost only $50 less than all items COM
bined in 1900. 1927 represented the
expenditure for food of the average
working mans family in 1900. By
1911 this had risen to $43O and i'm
1917 it cost $716. Rent had advanc-'
ed SO per cent. Clothing doubled, ris-
ing from $106 to $21O. Fuel and
lighting show a similar advance, ris-
ing from $40 to $S2. Most of the
advance in these items occurred be-
tween 1914 and 1912. The 1917 figures
the bureau says, are already outdat-
ed because Of subsequent advances.
The minimum standard of comfort to-
day requires a wage Of approximate
ly $1,000 per year. The average Of
"a American cities is that the min
imum amount necessary for a reason
able standard Of health and comfort
in those "a cities is $1,65O, of which
$500 is spent for food. Investigation
by the department of health in New
York City fixed the figure for that
city at $1,682.
The above figures do not include
increases in the cost of such things
as amusements, charity, insurance,
taxes, books, newspapers, or expenses
incident to sickness and death.
