have been reduced on an average of $142
a car, bringing them virtually to their
pre-war price. [he price reductions
range from approximately 14 per cent
on trucks to 31 per cent, on small auto-
mobiles. The Ford company has 146,~
000 unfilled ozders,
There will be no reduction in wages
at any of the Ford plants, it was an-
nounced. ‘Now is the time to call a halt
on war methods, war prices, war profi
teering and war greed,” said Mr, Ford.
*“For the best interests of all it is time
that a real practical effort was made to
bring the business of the country and
the life of the country down to normal.
Inflated prices always retard progress,”
The announcement said the price re-
ductions were made despite unfilled ‘or-
ders for 146,000 vehicles,

Cider Vinegar Sale Made Easy Under
Penna. Law.
Country cider vinegar, made by the
farmers of Pennsylvania, may be sold to
the wholesale and retail trade in this
state without inspection or permit of
any kind, Provided the ‘vinegar has
been made from apple juice and con-
tains no added water, drugs or acids, it
complies in every way with the pure
food laws of the state,
Director James Foust of the Bureau
of Foods, Pennsylvania Department of
Agriculture, this week declared that
agents from the larger vinegar distilling
plants, many of them located outside the
state, have been making strenuous ef-
forts to keep the farmers from making
and disposing of their own cider vine-
gar, *
These agents have been going up and
down the state telling the trade, particu-
larly the small retail dealer, that he runs
a risk of violating the food laws of the
state by selling cider vinegar made on
the farm,
A recent act of the legislature provides
for the interest of the farmers in this
particular case. The act provides that
that there shall be po standards as to
solids and acidity for cider vinegar made
from apple juice. The act requires,
however, that the cask or container of
such vinegar shall be marked with the
name and address of the person making
the vinegar. This may be done on any
farm, with a set of stencils or a card
containing the information may be at-
tached to the barrel.
Penpsylvania imports great amounts
of cider vinegar from New York and
Virginia each year. The farmers of
Pennsylvania have an excellent oppor-
tunity to convert their apples intoecider
vinegar, realize a good profit and run no
risk of running afoul of the prohibition
laws. If every excess apple in the state
was made into vinegar, the amount
would still be insufficient to meet
mand and at the current price of 30 to
35 cents a gallon, cider vinegar returns
an excellent investment to the farmer
