The Indian and the Berries
From far-off Montana comes the story which
in brief tells of Indian who, for a number of
years has been in the business of picking berries
which grow in luscious abundance in the locality of
his wigwam, and selling in the nearby settle

For years this has been his unvaryng price. Re-
Gently however, when in the annual berry season.
Mr.. Indian made his appearance and offered of his
product for sale his price had advanced 25 cents
per quart. He asked why this very much
higher price for the same variety and quality of
berries he had been selling at the lower price, He
replied: Heap big war some place-me lust hear
about um''
Judging by the mounting prices for many if
not most of the necessities life, of the demands
for higher and higher wages and less and less
