PRICE OF FOOD
WILL NOT DROP
IS PREDICTION
Shortage Of Farm Labor Lessons
Production Which Cannot
Equal Demand.

Food prices win probably either
maintain their present level or go
higher, in spite of the drop in
other commodities. is the opinion
of H. A. Clevenstine, Rock Island
grocer. The reason is that condi-
tons are such this year that the
supply in food stuffs does not equal
the demand, forcing the present
prices in groceries.
The difficulty farmers have had
in obtaining farm labor accounts
for the lowered production, accord
ing to Mr.. Cleventsine. If the gen
eral slump had occurred earlier,
releasing factory and other labor
ers for farm work before the spring
planting, this condition would
have been remedied.
Many fields have lain idle, simply
