Public Service Commission
Asks Co-Operation Of Mo
tor Registration Bureau.
The cooperation of the ...automobile
registration department of the secre
tary of state's oinee is asked by the
state public service commission in an
educational campaign which it is about
to launch among automobile owners
throughout the state looking toward
the elimination of accidents at railroad
crossings.
"Briefly, it is our'intention to have
printed a eireulur or folder lllustrat
inpf and explaining the nature and in
tent of tho various kinds of warning
9igns, nlso to offer suggestions as to
the best method of negotiating uneven,
rough and unusually hazardous cross
ings, and further to request and urge,
all owners and drivers to notify the
commission of physical conditions sur
rounding any particular crossing which
may tend to increase the hazard,"
reads a letter addressed bv Chairman
Buchtol of tho commission to Govern
or Olcott as secretary of state.
"Under tho latter thought we nave
in mind that tho view of a crossing
may be, and often is, obscured by
brush, trees and other natural obstruc
tions, advertising signs are frequently
so placed as to add to the risk assumed
in negotiating grade crossings; worn
out Blanking, excessive grades, sand
and gravel, all have a tendency to add
to the dangerous condition. These mat
ers we shall urge in our circular
should be brought to our attention as
well as such other information as is
pcrtinont in an attempt to guard the
safety of the travelling public, thus
enabline us to direct the attention of
responsible parties to the circumstanc-
surronnding any particular gratie
crossing."
Tho cooperation of the secrotary or
state's office is asked to the extent
of including one of these circulars in
the letters in which the automobile de
partment will soon be mailing out op
plication blanks for renowals of auto
mobile licenses.
Comparison With Portland and 50
Other Cities Shows Salem Prices
On Foodstuffs A re Below A verage
CA.F.F.DAUET CORPORATIONS UP. BUFFMX,H.Y.
It costs less to eat in Salem than in
any 50 of the larger cities of tho Unit
ed States. This includes Portland which,
ranks fifteenth in the list, with San
Francisco the lowest eating costs.
Statistics have been compiled show
ing the average cost of meats and
canned goods, eggs, 'butter and sugar
in the 50 largest cities of the country,
and also the average costs for August
in Portland. All these figures brought
together in comparing eating costs in
Salem, show that the Capital City is
one of the most economical places in
the country in which. to live,
Tho aTerage cost of girloin steak in
50 of the large cities for August was
44.4 cents a pound, while- in Portland
it was 34.9 cents. Salem can beat this
record as the meat markets are today
selling sirloin at 30 eents and this has
been the average this year.
Hound steak costs in the 50 big cit
ies an average of 41.8 cents and in
Portland the average is as low as 33.3
cents. The best round steak is selling
in Salem at 30 cents a pound and this
was the average during August.
Rib roast averages 35.2 eents in the
large cities with 31.4 cents a pound the
Portland price. Salem goes one better1
with, prime rrt roasts selling today at
8 cents and an average of 29 cents
reeently.
' X'hock steak is cheaper in fSalem than
in Portland or any of the large cities.
The home price is today 24 cent a
pound snd this has been the average.
Portland's average is 25.9 cents and
the big cities, 29.7 cents a pound.
Plate beef also is away nnder Ilio
average price of tho 50 big cities. It
may be bought in Salem today :it 10
cents a pound, although the A ignst
average was 18 cents. Portlurio i av
erage is 20.5 cents and the b cities,
22.5 cents.
The old standby, pork cho. s, in Sa
lem run protty close to other cities.
Here the price today is 42 cents, while
the average has been 43.5 cents. Port
land's average is 44.7 cents and the
big cities, 43 cents.
iBacon today is retailing in Salem at
53 cents, although the average has been
58 cents. But Portland is higher with
an average of 59.3 cents and the big
cities, 58.7 cents.
It is the price of bam of tho fin
est quality that Salem makes the best
showing when comparing what one
would pay elsewhere. The Salem price
for the best of ham is 42 cents a
pound, with a past average of 44 cents
In Portland the average has been oli.S
and in the big cities, 54.6 e;:its. lleiivo
Salem is B paradise for the hani eater,
if prices are worth considering.
In the big eities, the average for
lamb chops has been 39.6 cents a pound
and in Portland 37 eents. Here jgain
Salem makes a record for low costs,
as lamb is today selling at 30 cents
and this has been the average.
Hens sold on the Salem market are
drawn and properly drcBSod. On the
Portland market, only the feathers are
removed. Hence whilo the Salem price
for dressed hens i today 45 cents, and
has averaged 47 cents, the Portland
showing is 44 cents and the big citios
3.5 cents. Tho net is much in favor
of Salem, as any housekeepor knows.
Canned Salmon averages higher hore
than in the big cities as they have a
iguro of 31.9 cents, with Portland
35.2 cents a pound. Salem's present
price and average is 35 cents a pound.
rresh milk bv the quart runs about
the same everywhere. Tho cities have
an average of 14.9 cents a quart, Port
land 14.6 cents and Salem in the past
14.3 cents with 15 cents today. Salem
has been exactly with Portland and
the big cities on evaporated milk, 13
cents, although in some stoics today,
the price is a cent or two humor.
Tho averaire of u3 cents a pound for
butter during the past few months in
Salem is a saving over that or the
cities at 67.9 cents and Portland 04.7
cents a pound. Butter has advanced the
last few days and is now pretty close
everywhere to 70 and 72V, cents.
Salem pays the same as other places
for its oleomargarine, 40 cents.. For
cheese, with a city average of 12.2
cents and Portland 44.2 cents, Salem
has averaged 44 cents until just lately,
when . tho price advanced everywhere,
Lard is 33 cents a pound today in
Salem. Tho big cities averaged 38.8
cents and Portland 37. cents. The aver
age in Salem has been 35.5 cents.
Union eaters are also in luck in na
lem. Tho averuvs has been 6 cents
while tho big I'itics have averaged
10.7 in Auuust. Cabbage has been three
cents a pound cheaper in Salem than
Portland and four cents a pound lower
than the big cities. In 'baked beans,
No. 2 cans, Salem has been higher
than Portland- as Salem has averaged
2o cents, whilo Portland's , average is
23.8 cents and the 50 big cities for
August 17.5 a can.
Sugar is just tho same iu Salem as
elsewhere, with an average of 10.6
cents a pound. The same may bo said
of tea, with an average of 60 cents
while coffee has averaged a few cents
higher. Raisins are the same, bananas
about two cents a dozen higher and
oranges about five cents a dozen low-
than Portland and tho big cities.
The average prices of tho 50 big cit
ies and Portland for tho month of Au
gust are taken from tho monthly re
port of tho U. a. bureau of labor sta
tistics. The Salem figures are taken
from stores that do not especially at
tempt to break prices but sell on their
record of giving only first class goods
and service, hence not especially low.
