AFTER YOUR “GOAT” "Slackers” Who uodge Taxes to be Rounded Up. We think that prices arc high in the United States now and have a sigh every time advances are quoted, so it is somewhat of a relief to know that the Germans in Germany are paying for certain items. Their "war prices" make ours look low, indeed. The woman who goes down town to purchase a wool gabardine that was formerly equivalent of 72 cents a yard in United States money, must now pay $0.60 a yard. Velvet that was sold at $1.44 in Germany before the war now costs $12. Sateens that were 20 cents a yard, now $2.88. Voiles that were 13 cents a yard are now $2.88. Half wool cloth that was 38 cents a yard now brings $5.76. Sewing silk was 1% cents a spool, but is now 15 cents. Cotton thread that was 4 cents is now 22 cents. In-, fants’ cotton socks were 72 cents a dozen are now $11.52. Women’s wool en stockings that were sold at 66 cents a pair now bring $3.60. it is said that cotton cloth and thread is very scarce in Germany and that buttons are being fastened on cloth with wire.
