store butter, eggs, poultry, etc.. to be
used during the non-producing season
Otherwise we would have a feast in sum-
mer and a famine in winter.
Strikes and other labor disturbances do
not decrease the cost of living. but the
contrary. Transportation disturbances are
the worst. During the past three weeks
many cars of perishable foodstuffs have

II laws should be enacted now to keep
down the price Of farm products below the

After the Civil war, we had an outcry
against high prices, and the government
set about contracting the currency. But
when prices began to fall, so many people

close of our Civil war before our currency
situation was again normal.

The United States is not yet ready to
abandon the industrial and economic
methods upon which we have built up this
country-that we are not prepared to sub

economizing, they keep spending, and then
complain that prices are high

is to increase the consuming population
