HE retail merchant with whom you deal does not like present prices any better than you do. He is the victim of circumstances. The producers of raw materials get more for foods than ever before. For example, during the past fiscal year, Armour and Company paid raisers 47% higher, or more for livestock than during the year 1915 preceding our entry into the war, and with virtually no increase in the total weight received. Thus, it must be obvious that the retailer's stock costs him much more money. wader Knowledge ever cam O TO do the same volume as for y, a dealer has to tie up considerably increased investment in stock. The interest charges are heavier. And with other similar factors militating against hirr the probability is that his year’s profits are no more than they used to be—if, indeed, they are as much Without relief in sight until things return to nor- Ze | mal, it becomes apparent the only way dealers can ‘ keep down prices to you is to reduce operating ex- will be helping in another way.

Under this famous label, which indicates Armour'’s top quality no matter on what kind of food you find it—at once a trademark and a grade mark—you can buy practically everything you need among table staples.

Any consideration of the question of available sugar supply must take into account a series of ex- traordinary factors. The immediate effect of the declaration of the European war was to cut off from the world’s market the sugar of the Central Powers. About one-third of the world’s total pro- d-iction formeriy came from within the present battlelines of Europe. The Western battlefront passes through the sugar producing territory of Framce and of Belgium. In conse- quence, England, France and other foreign countries have competed with the United States for Cuba’s cane sugar. Not only did this cause an advance in the price of raw and refined sugar, but until competition was checked by the recent agreement among the Allies, it resulted in lessening the supply available to the people of this country last fall. At the same time, an abundance of sugar—hundreds of thousands of tons—has been locked up in far-away Java, owing to the lack of ships to transport it. It is no more available than unmined gold. To provide ships to bring this sugar here—or to Europe—would withdraw them from the more important business of carrying our soldiers and their supplies overseas, as Mr. Hoover has pointed out. The nation-wide movement to save the fruit crop last sea- son greatly increased the use of sugar. While the quantity in the sugar bowl was for this and other reasons lessened, this sugar is wisely stored as food in preserved fruits, jams and jellies. “Every jar of fruit preserved adds that much to our in- surance of victory, adds that much to hasten the end of this conflict.” Because of the increased demand for sugar, more sugar cane has been planted in Cuba, Porto Rico, Hawaii and Louisiana, the chief sources from which the United States gets cane sugar. The reporis from Cuba and Porto Rico make the situation more favorable than a month ago for a supply to meet the sugar needs oi all who are dependent on this source—includ- ing this country, our soldiers abroad and the Allies. We buy raw cane sugar in the open market and refine it. To the extent of our ability, we are co-operating with the Government to insure a fair distribution of cane sugar, to stabilize the price to the consumer and to prevent hoarding and waste. We kept our refineries working last fall so long as there was a ton of raw sugar to be had. In order to make our output of refined sugar go as widely as possible, we distribute Domino Cane Sugars in convenient- size cartons and smal! cotton bags. These small-size pack- ages make it easy for grocers to limit sales to actual needs and to prevent hoarding. They help to prevent waste in the home. Housewives can cooperate with this plan by asking for these package sugars. It will be necessary for grocers and consumers to watch carefully their distribution and purchases during the ap- proaching period of rea nent. The refineries are now starting up and supplies of raw sugar coming forward but it will take weeks, and possibly months, for the return of normal conditions. In war-time and at all times it is our aim to safeguard the interests of the public we serve. american Sugar Refining Company “*Sweeten it with Domino’ Granulated, Tablet, Powdered, Confectioners, Brown
