It begins to look as if the price of
foodstuffs win show little further de
cline for the Immediate future. An ex
amination, of the trade in foodstuffs In
dicates Ujat the price changes are run
In cycles, f The resent flurry and down
pour of values appear to have subsided
and during the last few days there
have been no marked changes in gen
eral. . . '
That the public be not deceived by the
great howls in some -quarters of fast de
clining values, an examination shows
that, except in a few -staples such as
flour, sugar,, potatoes and onions, the.
declines of late are no more than were
the advances 'made JuBt after the armis
tice w,as signed. Therefore the real ad
vances in foodstuffs during .the war pe
riod have not- been generally molested:
In some instances canned goods have
shown sharply lower values than open
ing figures for the season, but It will
be noticed that most of these declines
still left the prices reasonably high,
while original figures were ' utterly too
high, considering all conditions. .
The following prices ruled generally in retail
shot for good quality. Some values are frac
tionally highest- and inferior tuf f fractionally
lower :

Foreign short sellers are Still being
forced to pay liberal premiums over the
established exchange values for wheat
to fill sales made some time ago. While
the international clique is still evidently
in control of the situation, its hold ap
pears to . be slipping somewhat.
A the time approaches when actual Wheat!1,
must be- substituted for the "paper" wheat of
the esstern exchanges,. It become evident thk
those allied witht the international clique are-
teas sure aoout Deing -aoie iu uiciaie me price
to the American grower.
The fact that actual purchases of real wbest
hsve been made in the East at an advance of
25c a bushel above the future quotation on
the Chicago market, indicates that the letter
represents little saide from speculative activity.
There has been a farther drop of $1 a ton
