Food IVhsIc mid Hl(,'li Price.
Amorlcana waste In their kitchen
food to tho oxtont of $700,000,000 n
year, say Secretary of Agriculture
Houston, In his discussion of the pro
ent lny ulttiatlon. Ho finds no short
age of food to support tho hysteria that
has prevailed In somo parts of tho
country. On tho contrary, ho says
plenty oxlsts, nnd that with applica
tion of proper household arrangement,
tho causo for complaint will vanish.
Tho secretary's Indictment sounds for.
midnblc. On n basis of twenty million
famlllos, his estlmato of wastage
amofimts to $25 per year per family, or
a trlllo under 10 conts a day. Tills
doosn't sound so blR, does It? On the
other hand, tho very present fact Is
that the price of the staple articles
thRt enter Into the dietary of the
American people has risen enormously.
Whctfidr due to nhoviage or not, be
oauso of 'psychological or other reason,
tho cost of living hat Kone up, an() no
nmpunt of dlscottrs from a. cabinet
officer Is going to put It down again.
One real reason for tho advance
In dlSKlosod In the report for January
Inst on oxportatlon of foodstuffs. On
tho Item of bacon alone, the quantity
'hipped had Increased 41,000,000
pounds or over 80 per cent as com
pared -with January of 1910, while tho
price paid by the foreigners had risen
trom 13,8 io 15.7 conts per pound.
I5rry articlo in the list of food ex
portations shows an increase, both In
ftiimitlty and In vahiu. Secretary IIous
tqn may be right as to tho waste
In American kitchens, but that nlone
dodtn't account for tho sky-rocketing
prise. Omaha lico.
