FOOD PRICES HIGHER
HERE THAN YEAR AGO
Sugar, Flour and Meats Main
tain High Levels-Coffee
Somewhat Cheaper.

That there has been quite a fluxation
in the prices of. foodstuffs during the
past year was noted Saturday morning
when n comparison was made between
the prices of today and those of this
date in 1919. In some cases there mas
been a decline while in other lines the
prices have advanced.
Some of the dealers declared Saturday
that the people are making more money
now than they ever made before, and
that they are still demanding the very
best of everything on the market
Speaking OF meat prices, one or the
best known meat market men In the
city said that while there had been
some decrease In prices OF the cheaper
grades, the better cuts were just as
high as they were this time last year
He was asked why this was So and
his reply was that the people have
more money than they ever had and
are demanding the very best cuts
such as the porter house and sirloin
steaks. The retail prices OF the cheaper
grades OF meat compared with those
of last year show a decrease or from
10 to 20 per cent, while the retail price
on cured meats, such as breakfast
bacons hams are from 10 to 20 per
cent higher.
The present retail prices on coffee
show that there has been a decrease of
about 10 per cent on the local coffee
market in the past year On the other
hand, sugar was retailing last year in
Chattanooga for II cents pound, this
date last year. and is now 20 cents.
Prices from the local -four mills show
that there has been an increase in the
price Of -four over that OF 1919. Last
year one Of the best grades of flour
sold in the city was wholesaling at
1890 q barrel. This year that same
grade is selling for $14.50 a barrel,
which makes an increase Of 1920.

Perhaps one of the most surprising
features of the trip to the citizens OF

was the fact that the land along the
Tennessee river from Chattanooga 10
Hale's Bar, which had been submerged
through the erection of the dam, was
gradually filling in through deposits
following high waters. with the result
that the river will within few years
be confined to the same channel as be-
fore the erection Of the DAM The rich
sou deposits of the former submerged
lands win prove the best river bottom

along the river. Already In some por,

that was formerly submerged. Another
fact not generally known is that the
owners were paid full value for the
land damaged through the oNernow' YET
they retain title and within few years
win have much better land than was
the case before the erection OF the DAM
