The Price of Sugar.,

The wholesale price of sugar
advanced so that the retailers
can no longer sell at 10 cents,
and under the uncertainty of the
market it is impossible to fix a
price that will fit all the county.
There is a way, however, that
the retailer can stay within the
law and arrive at the correct
price. The Food Administration
permits the retailer to make a
profit of one cent per pound on
sugar. This price is arrived at
by adding cent to the wholesale
price of the sugar and adding the
freight. Nothing else can be ad-
ded. Rents, insurance, nor 9TH
er overhead exposes can not be
figured in. Nor can paper bags,
twine, etc. Just add the freight
and cent to the cost and you
have it. If the sugar costs you
1913 a pound and the freight is
40 cents a hundred you figure it
this way:
Wholesale price, .... 10.4
Freight an 40c a hundred. A
Profit of 1c a pound. e. ..01.
Price to consumer. r..... ll.8
This is eleven and four-ffth
cents a pound, and the price the
sugar must be sold at under the
above cost, and would not author
ize the selling at II cents nor at
12H. The sugar must be sold at
not more than one cent pound
above cost and freight.

Morgan County Food Administrator.
