dealers the necessity of complying
strictly with the federal rules. which
permit OF but FIVE or six cents profit

allowances for storage. The best
grade of fresh butter is selling at
wholesale on the Boston market at so
cents a pound. but the investigators
found number of instances where re-
tailers were charging for the same
butter 6S and even 10 cents a pound.
The same quality of butter was selling
at the same time in New York at
wholesale at 5s l-4 cents, IN Phuaoei-
phia at So Ia cents. and in Chicago at
5s IA cents. according to the market
reports of the department Of agricul
