HOW IT WORKS OUT
A short time afro a farmer brought j•
a calf's hide to the store where 7 am 1
employed. After looking up the!
market, on hides I found the best •
price I could offer him was four'
cents Der pound. The hide weighed
12% lbs., which at four cents, equals
51 cents, and in exchange he took'
one pair of shoe laces at 20 cents;
one package puffed, wheat at 16:
cents, and one package health bran':
at 15e. After the man bad left the
store I began to compare the values
of these articles. The laces were
the sort used for lacing long boots
and were cut from common every-
day calf skin. On weighing these 1
found that there were 24 pairs to the
pound, at 20c per pair, making the
cost 84.80 per pound., As leather
gains five per cent in tanning, the
12 3-4 pound bide would weigh 16
•pounds when finished and would- be
worth $75.60 when cut into•laces. So
if the farmer wished to buv his same
r'alf hide tanned and cut '-nto laces
iie would need to bring in 50 calf
hides at 50e, plus 60 sheep skins at
40e, plus 20 lamb skins at 25c, plus
50 pounds of wool at Se, and to snake
up the balance would have to hand
over $1.40 in cash. The package of
puffed wheat was marked "4 oz,
net." or ode per oz., or 64c per pound,
lir $35.40 per bushel. Now if the
same farmer wished to take home a.
bushel of wheat converted int() puf-
fed wheat (which is common ordin-
