According to one local wholesale grocer there was a short park of canned goods lat year, nnd the effect of this shortage Is now being felt Next season's pack Is being contracted for nnd flumes nre high, owing to the labor itus'tinii and the high prices of materials, like tho cans themselves The labor situation makes Itself felt In the prices farmers are asking on contracts Even should the pack be large It will meet a market pretty well bare owing to last years shortage As nn evidence nf conditions it Is pointed nut that last vcar farmers furnished tomatles to tho packers nt 10 a ton; this yenr the pilce is $15 Last year corn was supplied at $10: this year It will enst $20 Taking n wide range of canned goods, the prices ma be said tn run perhaps fifty to eighty per cent nhead of last year. "The standard ten etnt can in ceitaln lines Is doomed." said one man "Tho ten-cent price may stand, but If It does the can will have to be smaller." SOME HOOPS STILL CHEAP Facts as stated nbovi- give what might be called the darker side of the grocery situation hut there nte other aspects which Philadelphia wholesalers nre point ing out "Theie arc many desirable food articles which have not advanced In price." said It. L Montgomery, nf William Montgontt-ry & Co 'Pried fruits, save apricots have advanced little In comparison with some other lines, and they are valuable foods Cocoa In Itself Is n good food; the supply Is abundant and prices have not risen Coffee Is unchanged Itlce Is cheap, nnd they say there are 200 ways of preparing It." That theie arc ways nf meeting the food situation, so far as canned goods are con cerned was pointed out by another grocer, who cited an Instance nf a purchaser who insisted on buying California peaches on the ground that eastern peaches, though possessing superior aroma nnd tlavnr. did not have miite as pronounced color as the western goods "I call that finicky." said the wholesaler, "nnd that Idea of In sisting on color was enough tn maUn the purchaser pay a fancy price for goods not a whit better than the eastern product. "If the public wllj adapt itself the situation will be much more easily met The housewife who Insists on getting her fnvnrlte fancy brand of Maine corn, for example, will have to pay mnie for It. Yet nt the old price she will tie nble tn get n can say of southern corn, possessing Just as much food value. A little adapta tion on the part of the public will help both consumer nnd dealer."

Mcpermntt sympa thized with the public on the food problem The prices were ton high for fish What could bn done" He realized that certain fish not commonly used for food In this t-pctinn of the country could he obtained nt a rldlcillnuslv low figure. The people vvniill be nblo to afford this commodity nnd the lesult would be a "run" of buying. From a business standpoint tre plan seemed feasible He could sell with the same profit as he received from the higher pr.ced fish The scheme appealed tn be a winner nn firquently he wired for an order of cusks from a llrm In I'm Hand, Me In due time the cusks arrived Now. n cusk Is a perfectly good edible denizen nf the deep gieen. according tn McPermott He announced that the price was threo centR per pound for cusks.

Hlg eyes prntrude from the frog-llko head nf tho cusk He has a long "wlggly" tall and generally glows about three feet long Shades of Tho artistic sensibility nf the woman was shocked. Three rents or eighteen cents per. pound made little dif ference.

Once more the eyes played an Important part. "Strange, ynu can't get the penple tn buy a homely looking fish. They don't like the llsh with the iikIv ev'es and brad even when thev are dirt cheap All of there fish I bought were good." said Mcpermntt "Thev would rather havo tho prettier fish nich ns the shad and the Spanish ninck eiel." continued McPetmott.
