Of Sugar City. Colorado announces
that as soon as the necessary arrange
ments have been completed and re-
ports from their representatives as to
the stocks on hand in Crowley and
Kiowa counties have been received.
they will sell sugar at the old price
of $1,000 sea-board basis which
means Ice pound retail. Any deal
er in the above counties who charges
more than l 6c-a pound for beet sugar
should be reported to the Federal
authorities for investigation on charg
es of profiteering. With 1882 a
hundred wholesale price for sugar
here. retailers are making a trifle
more than the maximum profit allow
ed of 2 cents pound.
Owing to the abnormal demand for
sugar during the early part of the
year, which made heavy inroads upon
the stock held by the National Sugar
Mfg. Company for local consump.
ton, it is necessary for the next four
months to limit sales to retailers to
38 per cent of the average monthly
consumption during the year 1919,
but the above arrangement is to ap-
ply only to the balance of the stock
now held in the Company's ware
house.
