And this in spite of the fact that flour prices did not reflect the decline in wheat prices to anything like the same extent ss bread prices did." 'I‘he report emphasizes that this does not/imply an expression of op- inion that flour and bread prices were in a proper relationship in 1929 or that there "is no ground for com- plaint about the present price level." On the other hand. the report points out that "while bread prices fol- lowed wheat prices in their decline during 1930, at the opening of i930 bread prices were decidedly out of line with wheat prices as compared with the relationship which existed in 1923." It is shown 1n the report that between January, 1925, and June, 1930, ‘while wheat and flour prices fluctuated freely, bread prices were maintained at s. high level which was generally unchanged. The interval between these_ dates,’ ‘it is stated, "constitutes a period in which occurred the most striking develop- ment of the bread industry in recent years, namely the acquisition of a large measure of control in the bread baking industry by a few flour mill- ing companies." Other Factors parted this life to await the recur-lion are clearly seen; competition inl rection.

In other words, even if the baker had got his flour for noth- ing in 1930 he would still have charg- cd 5.1 cents a pound for his bread; in 1913 he would have charged only 2.3 cents." The report reviews the relation be- tween bread prices in the different provinces and states that Nova Sco- tia, New Brunswick, Alberta and British Columbia have practically al- ways been above the Dominion av- ernge while Prince Edward Island, Quebec. Ontario and Manitoba have as consistently been below the aver- age.

Comparison In Prices Besides dealing with the question whether there is a combine lll the bread baking industry, the report compares, by means of tables and charts, Canadian bread prices of the present with those which were in ci- fect before the war and with those obtaining in the United Kingdom and the United States. "Bread prices" the report says, “did not come down proportionately in the early months of 1930. and that fact doubtless gave rise to most of the protests. But by December, i990, they came to bear the same relationshi to wheat pric- as in y, 1929, the same indeed as in the first six months of 1939. __'—. N. D. MdcLCGII usssssaun WIQMM Dill!

In this section the costs of Canadian and British bakers are compared, the British costs being for 1923 with the exception of flour, which is for i929, and the Canadian costs being for 1929 throughout. This comparison shows total Canadian costs of 7.03 cents and British costs of 3.80 cents, An examination of the details reveals a difference of a third of a cent in flour, a half a cent on other ingredients, over haif a cent on baking costs, over one cent on delivery and sale and half s. cent on overhead. The report comments that. the Canadian loaf is much richer than the British loaf and remarks that within the past two years some of the larger Canadian bakeries have put out in a few cities a special bread more after the type of the English loaf and that tho difference in cost of ingredients between this loaf and the ordinary Canadian lcaf is estimated as just less than two thirds of a cent per pound.

"Gus" is well known as the chef of the 105th and his cutinary fame is still talked about by the boys. His feat of cook- ing 55 dozens of eggs on Easter Sun- day morning before the boys left Summerside, is still remernbe ed as one of his many accomplishments.- S. —MCLEAN TROPHY ELIMINA- TlONS-It; was decided st a meetimi. at the Queen Hotel, Summerside on Monda, afternoon at which repre- sentatives of the Borden and Cape Traverse teams were present, togeth- er with the President Mr. Dodds, and Secretary, Mr. Leo Wedge, that a decision to decide which team was eligible to play in the semi-finals with Kenslngton for the McLean Trophy, would be left in the hands of the President, Mr. Ralph Dodds, Vice-President Mr- Preston Kennedy and the Secretary, Mr. Leo Wedge. Considerable discussion book place on the matter before this settlement was arrived at.

The winning team will play against Kensington in the semifinals for the McLean Trophy. turday night's game at Kenslrgton between Cape Traverse and Borden ended in n tie.

SUCCESSFUL MOCASSIN DANCE AT CURLING CLUE The Mocassin Dance at the Cur- ling rink last Friday was from all angles a. great success. Everybody enjoyed themselves. Fun and laugh- ter is about. as gocd a way to describe it. For to the music played by Dix- CD'S Orchestra the dancers danced, some slipped, some fell, but this on- ly added to the hilarity of the gath- ering. The feature of the evening was the broom race. This novel event exhib- ited to the spectators for the first time, kept all spell bound at the s- gility of the various competitors. Four heats were necessary as only six teams could race at one time. Three preliminary heats and a final. The teams were made up of o broom, a lady and a gentleman. The lady sat. upon the broom and the gentleman holding the other end of it raced iovmrd the wire after the the starter. Mr. Allison Macbeod gave the word go.
