FOOD PRICES SHOW
GENERAL DECLINES
Next Week Expected to See
Drops in Some of the
Commodities.
POTATOES UNSTEADY
Vegetables Generally Down
Only Fruit Gains
This Week.

Food prices experienced a genera
decline this week. and prophesie
from local concerns and travelling
salesmen are that next week will
witness a fall on the prices of sugar
flour, potatoes and all vegetables.
The dumping of sugar from ''mys
terious source" has taken the bottom
out Of sugar prices.
This dumping, according to thu
Chicago markets. is result Of mucf
boarding which has caused an artifi-
cial famine in sugar. Another reason
attributed to the falling price in sug'
ar according to the Kansas City mar.
ket, is the tightening up of credit by
the banks. However. the local retail
price is still 2S cents a pound.
Potatoes are unsteady and, accord
ing to the local merchants, will be
cheaper next week. They are still
selling at 10 cents pound.
Flour is ready for big tumble. as
the falling price in wheat this week
indicates. According to the Boone
County Mill, they will be able to make
lower prices within few days. Sales
men covering tn local retail fields say
that the wholesale price for nationally
advertised flours has been on a slight
downward trnd for teh last week, and
predict a good drop within the next
few days. Flour is still reported at
$3.50 a hundred pounds at the retail
stores.
Vegetables, too, are sinking. To-
matoes are selling today at 8H cents
a pound. Everyone seems to have q
back yard garden growing in full
force. Beans are coming in better
than was expected and are selling to-
day at two pounds for 25 cents,
against Is and 20 cents a pound last
week. Corn is one the decline and
is generally sold at so cents dozen
ears. Cabbage, too, is down, at to
71s a pound.
Oranges are taking a back set,
though they have been rising for the
last few weeks. They can be bought
today for so and so cents a dozen
aginst last weeks 60 and rs cents.
Lemons are, however. higher, selling
at 80 cents against last weeks price
of Is cents. Apples. too, seem to
have taken a little trend upwards.
Last week they were selling for 81 a
peck: today they are selling from
s1.10 to $1.25 a peck. Bananas are at
40 to so cents dozen. watermelons
continue to drop.
Creamery and country butter both
take a higher price, country butter
being scarce. Eggs are selling today
at two dozen for 20 cents, or a rise
in price Of az cents According to
the Kansas City market, they can be
to rise still more within
the next few days.
