MANUFACTURERS ANNOUNCE
NO DECREASES AND SOME
INCREASES FOR 1921.

ADVANCED 10 PER CENT

impossible.

Agricultural Supplements will not
be lower in price next year. at leas.
not during the first six months. The
only changes from present price quo
tations that can be expected win be
increases to as high as 10 per cent or
more for some lines. Tho farmer, in
the face Of prevailing low prices for
farm products of all kinds. must pre-
pare to pay the same high prices for
farm implements that have been the
rule since war demands sent prices
to double pre-war prices.
Prices for spring delivery are now
being sent out by the manufacturers.
These with practically no exception
are, at least as high as have been
quoted at any time. with substantial
increases in some lines.
Manufacturing Costs Hol!.
The manufacturers, in defending
their position. declare that they now
are manufacturing for spring tra1e
under peak cost conditions. They say
that in only onei respect has their
cost decreased. that lumber has gone
down but that lumber plays small
part in present-day agricultural I'M
plement. .
With the last increase In freight
rates they figure the average In
crease In this important item Is
101 per cent. and that this is pyra-
mided IN their cost OF manufacture.
They say their freight bills on coke
coal. iron and other raw products are
three times the cost for outbound
finished products and that this In
crease makes very heavy burden on
the industry.
Retailers Without Recourse.
All other costs, they aver, are at
war levels. They figure their labor
bill at about the same as it has been,
and metals. mainly pig iron and steel
are no lower, while coal and coke has
even gone higher recently. Even if a
reduction In these prices should oc-
cur now. they claim. they would not
benefit except in labor, as contracts
for other materials would continue
for some time at present prices.
The local dealers. who receive these
reports, can see no prospect for de-
crease and the mos hopeful only look
to the possibility OF keeping present
retail prices where they are and
getting by with them.

Your Liberty Bond

The United States Government Dor
rowed money from you TO fiuance
the war. You hold the Government
promise to pay you back. This
promise is called Liberty Bond OF
Victory Note. On this Bond Is stat
ed the conditions under which the
Government borrowed the money
from you.
For instance. II you hold n Bond
OF the Third Liberty Loan, 1t states
that on April 18th and October 18th
OF each year until maturity, you VIII
receive interest on the amount you
paid for the Bond. Other issues bear
other rates OF interest and other ma
turity dates, all OF which are clear
ly stated on the Bond.
Now, IL you keep your bond until
the date when the Government pays
you in full for II. you do not need TO
worry If, in the meantime. the price
Ia low one day or high the nex.. You
and Uncle Sam are living up To your
agreement with each other, and mel
Their will lose by 1t.
On the other hand, IL you sell your
Liberty Bond now, you will find that
the man you sell il to will not give
you dollar for every dollar you
paid for II. The price has been
brought down because of so manY
people are offering to sell their
Bonds. II the market is flooded with
tomatoes you can secure them cheap
but II everyone is clamoring for to-
matoes and there are few to be had
the price goes up. The same is true
of Liberty Bonds. Short-sighted peo-
pie are dumping them on the market
and wise ones are buying them.
The best advice that can he given
to the owner OF a Liberty Bond is to
hold the bond you bought during the
war; 1t is as safe and sound as the
United States Government itself.
Buy as many more at the present
low rate as you can afford. II you
hold them to maturity. you are bound
TO make the difference between what
they sell at now and their face value.
You will also receive good interest
on your investment
Hold on to your Liberty Boids and
buy more.
