PRICES OF CHIMED GOODS Oil INCREASE
Although the scarcity of the pea crop will affect the price of canned peas to the dealers, local grocers state the retail price will not be raised by the' advance in the price. Peas are
now selling from 10 to 25 cents per
can, aocoraing to quality.
. Wtlbin the past two years, a large increase has been made in the whole
sale price of corn, peas, tomatoes and other garden products that are canned, but the retell price has not changed nraeh. The scarcity of the supply Is the chief cause assigned by the grocers for the Increase in 'price. Maine, which has been the greatest state for producing corn for canning, is producing less And less and New York state, which has also been a large corn producing state, Is growing less corn than it did several years ago, which has materially affected the supply. Local grocers state that the wholesale price of corn has Increased from 10 to 15 cents per dozen cans within the past three years. A slight increase is also expected in the market quotations for this fall.
