Aug. 9. —Increases in the price of bread as a result of the recent boost in wheat prices is likely 1 to be general throughout Indiana as J soon as the present supplies of flour that, bakers now have on hand are r exhausted, C P. Ehlers, secretary ! and manager of the Indiana Bakers e Association said today. Bakers in Marion and Hartford ■> City have increased their bread prices approximately two cents on the pound loaf. Increases have been predicted in Richmond and Indianapolis as soon as the present. flour supplies are exhausted. Since the last of June, the price of Setember wheat on the Chicago market has increased from sl-16 to $1.32 a bushel. The December wheat increased from $1.20 to approximately $1.35. As a reflection of these changes, the price of Hour a barrel on the New York market for the spring patents has been raised from $7.00 at June 30 to approximately SB.OO at the present time and the I hard winter straights has been raised from $6.50 to $7.10. The cost of flour is from 35 to 50 per cent of the cost of a loaf of bread, Mr. Ehler said. The price of shortening cuts a rather large figure in the bread price also and the price of it has advanced. Bakers ordinarly lay in their supply of flour at this time of the year—right around harvest time —when the wheat price usually declines, ’ Ehlers said. "For that reason they have not prepared for an increase in price by laying in large supplies, when the prices were lower earlier in the season. When their present supplies are exhausted and they begin to lay in flour at higher prices they will have to charge more for their bread in order to maintain their margin of profit.’’ Ehlers said that an advance of one dolar on a barrle of flour would neces- ' sitate an advance of approximately | one cent on a loaf of bread. j
