Wholesale Commodity
Index at New Hiuh

The wholesale commodity price
index compiled by the National Fer
tilizer Association advanced last
week to the highest point reached
since January, 1898. This index in
the week ended October ID was 77.2,
compared with 76.7 in the preced-
ing week, 1853 month ago and
72.7 year ago, based on the 1926
1928 average as 100.
Food prices were slightly lower
last week on the average, making
the fourth consecutive weekly de-
cline. The farm product index turned
upward, with cotton, grains and
live stock showing increases. The
trend of prices of industrial COM
modities continued upward, with the
index for all commodities except
farm prices and foods rising for the
ninth consecutive week. This aver
age is now higher than at any time
since October 1887.
Higher prices for anthracite coal
and petroleum took the fuel index
to a new high for the year. The
textile index rose sharply, due in
large part to higher quotations for
woolen goods and yarns. Burlap,
silk and cotton were also higher
for the week.
In the metal group rising prices
for brass and copper products more
than offset declines for steel scrap
and tin, resulting in a slight rise
in the group average. An upturn in
the building material index to the
highest point reached this year re-
flected markup in lumber quota
tions.
