HIGH PRICES ARE
TO STAY. DECLARES
YALE ECONOMIST

Irving Fisher, professor of political
economy at Yale university, asserts
the high price level has come to stay.
1t is permanent, in his judgment. He
thinks it may go down trifle in a
year, perhaps, but then will continue
on plane far above the pre-war
level.
His views are being distributed by
the department of commece in the
hope of stimulating private business.
On whether the general level of
prices is bending downward, he says
sit is not going to fail much, if at
ALL" Continuing, he declares: I'VE
are on a permanently high price level
and the sooner the business men of
the country take this view and adjust
themselves to it, the sooner will thew
save themselves and the nation from
the misfortune which will come, If we
persist in our present false hope"
The professor jumps down into eco
Monies and brings up this fundament-
al reasons for high prices:
Surplus Gold Raises Prices.
1.-THE general level of prices is de-
pendent upon the volume and rapidity
of turnover Of the circulating medium
in relation to the business to be trans
acted thereby. If the number of dol
lars circulated by cash and by check
doubles, while the number of goods
and services exchanged thereby re-
main constant, prices will about
double"

At the meeting Of the Rotary club

further expansion Of his large hotel
building by the construction of a new

concrete foundation in complete
readiness for the raising of the struc-
ture later, but has much of the nee
essary building material at hand so
that when the necessity arises, how
ever suddenly, he will be ready to go.
He believes that he can complete this
wing in sixty days owing to the COM
pleteness of his preliminary plans. He
has in mind particularly the proba-
bility of an oil strike in ColfaX county,

ADVANCE IN RENTS
WILL STRIKE DENVER
ABOUT SEPTEMBER

Another advance in residence rent
ais, this time of 10 to 25 per cent, will
take place in Denver, Colo. Septem-
Der /. according to realty dealers of
that city. The advance will be uni
form in character and will affect
apartment houses particularly, says
the Denver Post.
The raise will bring the total in
creases of the last year up to 100 per
cent. Dealers say that at this figure
profits of to per cent will be pos
sible on money invested. whereas at
the present time most owners are sim
ply breaking even"
Apparently the increase will be by
agreement between dealers and own
ers. although the rumor could not be
confirmed. Officials of the Denver
Real Estate exchange denied en-
phatically that any such agreement
has taken place Individual members
expressed the opinion that rents
cannot fail to go up late in the sum-
mer," since at that time Denverites
who have been summering in the
mountains will begin returning and
searching for quarters in which to
live.
1t is pointed out that the city's pop
ulation is now far in excess OF normal
living accommodations Last Satur-
day night, according to officials of the
exchange, the shortage of houses and
apartments amounted to 1000 or 200

Cream Rusiness n Big Item.

The Messenger man has often Won
dered what the cream business at
Merose really amounted to in dollars
and cents, so this week we have gone
to the trouble of seeing each cream
buyer in the city and getting their
statements as to the amount of bust
ness done during the month Of June,
and publish same below to give our
readers some idea of its magnitude.
During the month of June the three
combined buyers of this city bought
and paid for $4,239.sS worth of cream,
when is an average of $l41.32 per day
shipped through the local buyers This
does not INCLUDE some individuals who
ship their own cream, nor does 1t in
clude that shipped through Melrose by
other buyers at inland towns with the
exception of two such buyers-Wom-
ack Il Co. at Field. and the Midwest
Supply Co. at MCAlister. Their pur-
Chases are included in this statement
1t is the belief of the writer that if a
grand total of all cream shipped
from here could be ascertained it
would be approximately $500 per
day.-Melrose Messenger.

WHY YOUNG MEN
ENTER BUSINESS

In the early days of our country,
it was popular for young men to pre-
pare for teaching; three-quarters of a
century ago, young men flocked to
law; but today there are more young
men studying for business than for all
other professions combined. Furth-
ermore. a large number OF those who
study for years fitting themselves for
other professions, find their way later
into a business training school In or
der to equip themselves for the more
lucrative field of business.
Business is attractive to the man
OF keen intelligence. ambition. and
