In the whole 15 years, wheat, on July 1, of each year, was for only three years lower than it is now, these years being 1893, 94 and 96, and wheat is now lower than it has been on the average of the whole fifteen years. As to corn, in only two years out of the fifteen has it been as low as this year, and it is over five cents lower now than the average, and only twice in the period has it reached as low a price as this year. As to hogs, prices have been higher than this year in 11 out of the 15 years, and are lower now than the average for 15 years. In cattle only has there been any general improve- ment, the price now bebng only five cents per 100 pounds above the aver- age of the period named. Says the Democrat, concluding the showing: ‘Now let the Republican papers stop prevaricating about high prices for farm products and the wonderful prosperity the farmers are having under the McKinley administration.” Less for what the producer pro- duces. more for what he has to buy of trust controlled productions. That is the Republican “ prosperty.”” Boys and Mens’ bicycle shoes at Beckfelt & Mathers. Proceedings OF THE BOARD of EQUALIZATION OF Itasca County FOR THE YEAR 1899.
