Cost Of Retailing High.

This, say the experts, is partly pc
cousc the cost of retailing, as pusl-
ness operation, is high. Out Of the 30
cents that you pay for pork chops, the
retailer must pay, not only the price OF
the pork at wholesale, but also the rent
Of his store. the cost of the ice on
which he kept the pork, the wages or
tho man who cut it and sold it to you,
the paper in which it was wrapped and
unI,eep of the vehicle in which it was
delivered.
The experts do not seem to kno"
exactly what percentage of the cost Oh
those pork chops is represented by
each of the clements in it's transfer.
That is probably one of the things
treir investigation will reveal. But
they think that the price paid for the
pork is less than half Of the total cost
of getting it from wholesaler to con-
SINNER. And all of these facts in the
oueration have risen in cost. Rent,
wages, ice, paper, gasoline-no one
needs to be told that all of these
things are from 10 to 100 per cent.
higher than they We're in 1913.
Remember, too, that with many per-
sons out of work and money tight, the
retailer is doing smaller than nor
NAL business. But he still pays the
same rent and he probably has to
maintain about the same staff. HIS
reduction in expenses, in a word, is not
in proportion to his reduction in busi-
ness. That means that the cost max
ing each sale is higher than it would
he if he were doing n big business. If
the butcher only sold one pound OF
pork chops in day, he would have to
get SO or SIS for it in order to break
even.
AS matter of fact the profteernG
retailer is probably rare bird just
now. A few of them are perhaps max
ing large profits by sticking to war
time prices; but many more of them
are only hoping to make expenses un-
ill better times come along.
The difficulty, explains an expert
lies in the fact that retail prices
wages. and farmers earnings are al
ON different levels. In order that oul
clumsy industrial system may work al
all they must be on about the same
! lcv@'.

Several cases Of scarlet fever are re-
ported among children living at the
Glover Cotton Mill here and while 1t is
said that some Of the patients have
been pretty sick, none of them have
been seriously sick. So far there has
not been single case in the Clover

are somewhat apprehensive on account
Of it.
