food bill came to a tidy $5,
$4,000. This sum, apportioned
equally among local residents
represents purchases in tn
meat markets, grocery stores.
bakeries and other establish
ments of the sort of $685. per
family.
The present generation in
America is eating higher on
the hog than any other in his
tory. More and better food is
being consumed by a public
whose net diSposable income
last year was at a near-peak
level.
The good earnings accounted
for by Geauga county residents
made themselves evident in
other retail lines used in the
study as indicators.
Sales of automotive equip
ment locally, including new
and used cars land trucks,
farm machinery and accessor-
les, amounted to $4,O81 900 in
the year, equal to 10 percent
of the retail dollar.
Also reflecting the good local
conditions were sales of gener-
al merchandise, which reached
a volume of $946, 900. This rep
resented four percent of tn
dollar.
Stores selling furniture, house
hold equipment and radios had
a $625,00 year, taking three
percent.
Drug store business in the
county came to 1926, 900, almost
two percent additional.
The volume of business done
by all the local retail stores
during 1858 was $21, IT'S, 900, a
gain over the $21 1923 900 pro-
duced in the previous year. In
addition, a big spending poten-
tial now exists locally and in
most other parts of the coun-
try.

Geanga Eats Better Than Average
National Survey Shows

NEW YORK, Oct. 4 Among
housewives in Geauga county,
food occupies the number one
spot on the budget. Out of
every dollar they spend in the
local retail stores, 26 cents goes
to buy food for the f a m | y
table. This is brought out in
the current, copyrighted study
made by Sales Management of
the spending habits of people
in all 48 states.
The local spending pattern
shows more emphasis on food
than is evident in most other
counties throughout the coun-
try. Nationally, compared with
Geauga county's 26 percent, less
than "a percent of retail spend
ing is for edibleS. In the East
North Central States it is %
percent, and, in the State of
Ohio, 25 percent.
This ability to spend more
for food is one of the indica-
tors of higher living standards.

sion, was the speaker of the
evening. DR.. Parks spoke con-
cerning the State Division. The
State Board of Trustees is
equally represented by 81 a y
men" and doctors. This acts

producing a broad out look on
all matters.
