FARMERS REAP BENEFITOF HIGH COST OF LIVINGJame. D. lIagee of Political Econ­omy Department Lays High.Price. to Farmer.The high cost of living is main­tained in the interest of the farmer.whose crops have increased enor­mously in value year by year. accord­ing. to Mr. James Dysart :\[agee. afellow in the department of politicaleconomy. who writes on "Food Pric­es and the Cost of Living" in theApril number of the Journal of Po­litical Economy."If the present high level of pricesof agricultural. products continues,"he writes, "the new generation willneed to have explained to them whatwas meant by the expression "thepoor farmer.' The figures given bySecretary Wilson are truly beyondcomprehension: $8.760.000.000 is. saidto be the value of the products of thefarm for 1909. In the case of a fewcrops the number of units producedin 1909 was not quite so large as ithad been in some previous years. yetgenerally, because of the higher priceper unit. the value of each crop wasgreater than ever before."Retailers' Margin Unchanged.The author, with the aid of compre­hensive charts and tables, givingamong other data index numbers. re­tail and wholesale, for the variousfood products, traces them through. the' farm, wholesale and retail levelof prices. The' far� p�ice is comput­ed from the price in the primary mar­ket�. The general average of percent­age- increase, wholesale and retail, asshown by the Bureau of Labor for1908 over 1890-1899 was 22.8._,: "The general conclusion," writesl\fr. Magee "seems to be' that ex­cept in the case of meat the retailers'margin in the great staples has re­mained about the same. So we endwith the farmer, as we began withhim. The cost of living is high be­cause farm products are high. Whyfarm products are high remains to beexplained."�' .. Cites Instance of Grocer. :Mr. Magee cites the instance of aretail grocer in the residence districtof the city who mentions severalthings which tend to make priceshigh. Among these are the telephonebills, the cost of delivery of the arti­cles and the spread of advertisedpackage goods."The grocer said that butter, egg�and sugar did not really pay the costof handling them. and that on ordi­nary staples the margin had not ad­vanced in spite of increased expens­es. To offset this, there had grownup a' trade in fruits and vegetables allthe year around. On this he admit­ted that there was a good profit. Itwill be noted that none of this classof goods was included in any of the re­tail prices given above. Part of thefruit business was in California fruitand part in cold-storage fruit. In thelatter there is a considerable specu­lative element, which is responsiblefor a certain amount of the highprice."Meat Prices Increase.I n considering the situation of themeat prices in the city of Chicago theauthor shows by a table that in everycase the absolute margin and the per­centage of gross profit have increasedin the first half of 1909 over what the,'respectively were in the first half �f1905. Then, judging from the gener­al increase in the index numbers ofthe other food products for the year1907 over 1900, the author concludesthat there has been an increase in themargin between retail and wholesaleprices.Advertite in The Maroon.PatrODift lIaroon advenilen.IIuooa Waat Ads BriDe Raalt&. CRITICISES RULE REFORMSays Work of Committee Must Be.Be llade More Definite.An authority on football writes thefollowing criticism of the proposedfootball reform for the Yale Xews:"In the rules already advanced thecommittee has made very definiteprogress, as an analysis of the legis­lation shows. They have, however,by the omission of a recommenda­tion one way or the other as tothe forward pass, left incomplete anygroup of rules to form a definitegame. That conclusion must bereached at the next meeting. To an­alyze the work-the requirement ofseven men on the line of scrimmageonly materially affects the speed withwhich the man dropped back from theend could get into the interference.The forbidding of pushing or pullingthe runner or aiding him by the useof the hands and arms will have amore definite effect and wilt preventlocked interference of any kind. Theprohibition of the diving tackle is in­tended as a protection for the tacklerrather than the runner,. and legisla­tion of that nature is generally prettydifficult to work out; If its purposeshould be accomplished it will beexcellent. The limitation of the on­side kick to 20 yards beyond the lineof scrimmage is also a good safe­guard, while the division of the gameinto four periods ·of play, if properlyworked out so as not to mean that ateam only just gets going and then isheld up, should operate well in thedirection of saving men from exhaus­tion. The removal of the five-yardrestriction on the quarterback runmay lead to considerable push playsthrough the center unless a premiumof some kind is placed upon end run­ning, Coupled with the proper legis-- lation of this kind it will work outwell.Forward Pass Rule."There is little -need to tell Yalemen who saw so many ends laid upeither temporarily or permanentlywhen attempting to· receive the for­Ward pass; . or who'} saw the tacklesbattered to' exhaustion up at Cam­bridge because under the forward passthey could not be supported by theback field, that the restriction limit­ing the forward pass 50 that it rna,'not cross the line of scrimmage shouldbecome a great factor in saving endsand tackles."Finally, the. suggestion will be con­sidered further of forbidding the de­fensive team to line any player upoutside the end of the offensive team.This opens the way for the kind offootball we used to see when endruns, line plunges and general varietywas the order of the day. Further­more, the adoption of such a rule andlimiting the forward pass to the lineof scrimmage will cut out some 15 ormore cumbersome rules which arenow made necessary by the forwardpass and which will be rendered stillmore cumbersome if an attempt ismade to protect the men receiving it."MRS.
