SUGAR PRICES LOWER
AXOTIIEIl DIME IS IjOPPED OFF

Season's Total Ilrd action Xow 53
Cents Jobbers to Follow Load.
War Brings About Cut.
Sugar prices are tumbling rapidly.
Testerday there was another decline
of 10 centa a hundred In tha refinery
price, making a total reduction of t5
cents from the high price that prevailed
In the latter part of September. The
present refinery quotation on the local
rr.arkatt is 17 a hundred for granulated
cane sugar and l. 80 for beet sugar.
These prices. In spite of the several
recent reductions, are still 11.79 a
hundred above the lowest prloe of the
year last February. e
The refineries, however, are not do
ing all the cutting. In fact the prices

The rule that it pays to buy
the best is recognized nowa
days by a large majority of
the people. This rule also ap
plies in the selection of street
pavement, because where it
is used for a period of years
it saves money for the tax
payer in cost of maintenance
and the relaying of new
pavement which would be
necessary if any other kind
than bitulithic were used.
