RETAIL PRICES, 1907 TO DECEMBER, 1914. 1

FOOD.
In order that the course of prices of each of the various articles
through a series of years may be studied, relative prices have been
computed for each of 15 articles included in this investigation.
These relative prices for the several articles have also been combined,
so that the course of prices of food as a whole may be seen. The 15
articles represent approximately two-thirds of the expenditure for
food by the average workingman's family, as shown in the Eighteenth
Annual Report of the Commissioner of Labor.
No relative prices were computed for three articles for which
actual prices are quoted in General Table I of this report. These
articles are chuck roast, for which quotations were not secured
prior to January, 1912; leg of lamb, generally known to the trade
as "yearling," but which term, with some firms, includes sheep of
varying ages at different seasons of the year; and storage eggs, for
which quotations are secured for only four months in each year.
The following table shows the trend of prices of food during the
year 1914:

In the first column of this table are given the relative prices of
the 15 articles of food weighted according to the average consumption in workingmen's families. These figures show that the highest
point during 1914 was reached in September, when the price of all
food was 7.1 per cent higher than the average price for 1913, and
the lowest point was reached in April, when the price was 3.5 per
cent lower than the average price in 1913.
The other columns of the table show the trend of prices of each
article. Except for lard and such articles as are affected by seasonal
changes the highest price during the year was either in August or
September.
The next table shows the trend of prices from 1907 to 1914 by
years. As in the preceding table, the different columns show the
relative prices of all food combined and of each article separately.
In all food combined and in most of the articles, the highest price
was reached in 1914, while the lowest price prevailed in 1907. This
however, is not true of all articles. Flour, for instance, was 5.3 per
cent higher in 1909 than in 1914. Sugar, which reached a remarkably
high point, 145.3 per cent, in August, 1914, was 8.6 per cent higher
for the year 1911 than for the year 1914. In fact, sugar was higher
in 1910, 1911, and 1912 than it was in 1914.

The next table shows, for each of the geographical divisions and for
the United States as a whole, the relative retail prices of food for each
year, 1907 to 1914, for every alternate month from January, 1907, to
November, 1910, and for each month from January, 1911, to December, 1914; the per cent of increase and decrease in 1914 as compared
with each specified year and month; and the per cent of increase or
decrease in each year as compared with the year preceding and in
each month compared with the month preceding.
The relative prices shown in the table are the relative prices of the
15 articles weighted according to the average consumption in workingmen's families (as shown by the Bureau's investigation of 1901) in
the particular geographical division or in the United States as a whole,
and are computed with the average price for the year 1913 as the base.

The first section of the table deals with prices in the North Atlantic
division. For instance, the first column shows that the price of food
in 1907 was 83.3 per cent of the average price in 1913, that in 1908 it
was 85.3 per cent of the average price for 1913, etc; the second column shows that the price in 1914 was 22.4 per cent higher than the
price in 1907, that the price in 1914 was 19.6 per cent higher than the
price in 1908, etc.; and the third column shows that the price in 1908
was 2.4 per cent higher than the price in 1907, that the price in 1909
was 3.5 per cent higher than the price in 1908, etc. Similar data are
shown in other sections of the table for other geographical divisions,
and in the last section data are given for the United States as a whole.
While the percentage change in prices can not be measured by subtracting relative prices without shifting the base, yet, as explained on
page 369 (Appendix A) of this report, it is easily possible to compare prices for any dates for which comparison is not abeady shown
by dividing the relative prices to be compared by the relative price of

the period or date which is desired as the base. For instance, if it is

desired to measure the difference in price in the North Atlantic division from 1907 to December, 1914, the relative prices for these two
dates, viz, 83.3 and 105.2, respectively, should be divided by the
relative price for 1907, giving 100 per cent for 1907, and 126.3 per cent
for December, 1914, on the 1907 base, showing 26.3 per cent increase
in price in December, 1914, over the average price for 1907.
Relative price tables as used in previous bulletins of the Bureau are
given in Appendix B of this report.
The relative retail prices in the United States, considered as a whole,
of each of the 15 principal articles of food for the 8 years, 1907 to
1914, inclusive, are presented in the table which follows. General
Table III of this report shows similar data for each of the five geographical divisions. This table shows yearly prices for 1907 to 1914,
and prices each month from January, 1911, to December, 1914.

In the above table, as in the preceding table of relative prices, the

average price for 1913 is the base, or 100. The figures in the column
for round steak, for example, indicate that if the average price of
round steak for 1913 be considered 100, the price in 1912 was 89.2, or
10.8 per cent below the average for 1913; the price in 1910 was 77.8,
or 22.2 per cent below the average for 1913; the price in 1907 was
68, or 32 per cent below the average price for 1913, etc.
In connection with the price quotations furnished the Bureau of
Labor Statistics each month, the retail merchants are invited to
state "the cause of any material advance or decline in the price of
any article since the middle of last month." Some of the statements
of the opinions of the retail merchants accompanying price reports
for January to December follow. The name of the city but not of
the dealer is shown.
January.,
BALTIMORE.Eggs declined last week, but on account of cold weather the market
advanced 4 cents a dozen during this week.
BALTIMORE.Advance of 4 cents per dozencold wave. Receipts very light.
(Eggs.)
DALLAS.Outlook for an early spring cause eggs and butter to be somewhat
cheaper.
PHILADELPHIA.I did not quote storage eggs, as time limit has expired on April
eggs, and June eggs are not satisfactory, so that the dealers have practically cut them
out.
PORTLAND.Storage eggs very poor, practically all cleared up. Ranch eggs cheaper.
ST. LOUIS.Milk very plentiful, sales dragging on account of price.
February.
BALTIMORE.Eggs have an upward tendency on account of cold weather.

BALTIMOBB.Severity of weather causes a scarcity of goods (poultry).
BOSTON.Wholesale price of beef advanced J cent. No Argentine received this
week.
CHARLESTON, S. CMeats are still scarce, but prices have advanced in proportion
to scarcity. Market normal.
CHARLESTON, S. C.Good steers scarce and high.
DALLAS.Irish potatoes advanced because of cold spell.
FALL RIVER.I have cut up some Argentine beef. It seems to give very good
results, but I can not see how we can use frozen beef in the summer.
INDIANAPOLIS.Chickens have advanced 2 cents a pound, temporarily, owing to
extreme cold weather.
Los ANGELES.On February 9 my retail price on eggs was 45 cents and on February 14, 25 cents, a drop of 20 cents per dozen in five daysan unusual occurrence.
Never experienced such a drop since I have been in business, 13 years.
Los ANGELES.The seasonable rains and warm weather have made the difference
in price of butter and eggs since the report of January 15. The daily receipts being
much larger than a month ago.
NEWARK.Foreign butter coming in the market has slumped prices.
PHILADELPHIA.Open weather during January and February favorable for young
pullets and increase of supply is cause for drop in eggs. Quite a serious drop in price
of butter (5 cents) since last report. There seems to be an increased supply and an
indifferent demand.

SAN FBANCISOO.Milk is plentiful.
this year.
15
Farmers having good crops. Outlook bright

March,
INDIANAPOLIS The price of hens has gone up, due to the scarcity of same. It is
almost impossible to get them on account of the hatching season.
MILWAUKEE.The reason of decline in egg prices is oversupply.
PHILADELPHIA.Potatoes are somewhat higher at present on account of weather
conditions. Heavy snow, and farmers and shippers being unable to get their stock
to market. Eggs would also be possibly 6 cents per dozen or more lower if the roads
were passable.
PHILADELPHIA.The break in egg market is seasonable. The break is late this
year, owing to weather conditions. Look for lower prices if weather moderates.
PITTSBURGH.Scarcity of stock and strict Government laws. (Hens.)
April.
BALTIMORE.Jewish holidays; and fowl scarce.

CHICAGO.Beef got extremely high in last two weeks, so we are compelled to
raise prices in the future.
DALLAS.We have raised the price of round steak 2 cents on account of the great
demand for round steaks. We have to sell the plain steaks a little cheaper.
Los ANGELES.Beef has dropped cent, the first drop in two years by the whole
or half beef.
NEW YORK.We are selling a great deal of chilled Argentine beef and the trade
seems to be well pleased.
PITTSBURGH.Big demand for Holy Week and Jewish holidays this week. (Hens.)
WASHINGTON.Native beef cattle supply very light and consequently costing
higher. South American beef on market but not desirable and generally unsatisfactory.
May.
ATLANTA.Fresh vegetables extremely plentiful, good quality and low priced.

CHARLESTON, S. C.Good cattle scarce and very high.
CHARLESTON, W. VA.Packers are selling meat from 2 to 2J cents higher per 100
pounds.
NEW YORK.You will notice an advance in price, due to the large shipments of
beef for the Navy. There is very little meat in the local markets and that's the
reason of this advance, which think will not last very long.
PITTSBURGH.Butter has been advancing. No reason for it, as there is an abundance of milk on market.
June.
CHARLESTON, W. VA.Cause of higher prices on eggs is scarcity; very few coming

from country now.
CINCINNATI.Side3 of beef have advanced 2 to 2J cents. Quality fair.
DETROIT.You will notice a change of price3 on sirloin steak, as this time of year
steak is consumed so fast. Hind-quarter meat moves faster than the front-quarter
meat.
LITTLE ROCK.Dry weather making supply very short; need rain bad. (Milk.)
LITTLE ROCK.Weather is so hot local receipts of eggs are no good. Storage eggs
are much better.
LITTLE ROCK.The potatoes we are selling are new, the crop short, due to dry
weather.
NEWARK.Butter is high, as imports are not what they expected.

16
ST. LOUIS.Crops in our milk territory ruined with drought, army worms, Hessian
fly, and chinch bugs.
WASHINGTON.Native beef would undoubtedly be from 2 to 3'cents higher if vre
were not receiving large shipments of foreign beef.
July.
BOSTON.Everything in provisions, including vegetables, has been very high all

the season.
CHARLESTON, W. VA.-Owing to the increased cost of fresh meats, we had to increase
price of fresh meat cuts.
CHICAGO.Some cuts of meat are a little higher, and it ia a very rare thing to obtain
owing to the scarcity of the choice steers, such as we use. Spring lambs are the same.
We are paying more than ever, with no drop in sight, as per advice from packers.
CINCINNATI.Market on all fresh meats advanced. Wholesale pricesides of
beef, 14J; veal, 14J; lambs, 18; loins of pork, 17-17J. Poultry firm; hens cost
21-22; spring chickens, 40 cents pound, with head on and entrails in.
DALLAS.We are paying 13J and 14 cents for beef, but have not changed our prices
as I think it will decline in a week or two. We do not like to change our prices so
much.
FALL RIVER.Beef advanced 1 cent a pound wholesale. Lamb, during last of
June, advanced to about the highest point known in these parts, 19 cents pound
wholesale. Since last report potatoes advanced to 65 cents per peck, for three weeks,
native potatoes bringing $2.25 wholesale on July 10. Declined to $1.20 July 15.
Sugar also advancing, 30 points since last report.
LITTLE ROCK.The local supply of potatoes being short is why potatoes have
advanced.
MEMPHIS.All vegetables are very scarce and burning up from the sun. Potatoe3
are very scarce and are advancing every day.
NEWARK.Expect beef to advance again next week.
NEWARK.Price of all meats advanced 2 and 4 cents.
NEW ORLEANS.Local or Louisiana stock of potatoes is about exhausted and
northern goods not coming in yet. Hence higher prices.
PITTSBURGH.Old hens are very scarce and high. I suppose on account of harvesting and high price of beef.
PITTSBURGH.All meats are now away up in " G , " with indications to go higher.
The following increases have taken effect, viz: Beef, $1.50 per hundredweight;
lambs, $1 per hundredweight; calves, $1 per hundredweight; hogs, $1 per hundredweight. Scarcity of stock seems to be the cause of the increase; also the warm weather,
as it seems the people do not want anything but nice steaks and chops.
ST. LOUIS.Weather conditions worst possible. No winter feed in sight. No
pasture all summer. (Milk.)
SAN FRANCISCO.Milk very plentiful at present, but expect demand to soon
exceed the supply.
SAN FRANCISCO.The price of beef wholesale has dropped about 1 cent a pound,
but the margin of profit has been so small that we have not been able to lower the
prices on above cuts, and have used the difference to offset the raise in wholesale
prices on veal, pork, mutton, and lamb.
SPRINGFIELD.Milk scarce. Pasture all dry. All cows on dry feed. Looks like
a milk famine.
SPRINGFIELD.The raise of 2 cents per pound on pork chops caused by a 3J-cent
advance on pork loins wholesale.
SPRINGFIELD.-The change in price of bacon is because the packers have raised
the price of bacon, and beef has gone up a little.

EETAIL PKICES, 1907 TO DECEMBER, 1914.
17
August.
BIRMINGHAM.We believe the Government should thoroughly investigate the advance in price of staples, especially sugar, meat, and flour. Wholesale price on sugar
here to-day 8 cents.
BOSTON.Sugar advanced from 4.45 August 4, 5.45 August 11, to 7.62 [cents per
pound] August 18. Beef, lamb, and pork also advanced.
BosTon.Sugar has advanced. Vegetables are cheap. Hour has advanced. No
reason. There is wheat enough in this United States to supply everybody. What is
the reason of flour going higher? The same on sugar.
CHARLESTON, S. 0.Still hold to old prices. If prices for old cattle keep going
up, our prices must follow. Sales poor on account of poor quality of cattle at high
prices.
CHARLESTON, W. VA.The cause of advance in prices is that the wholesale prices
are advanced on us.
CHARLESTON, W. VA.The dry season has caused an advance in price of butter;
scarcity or decrease in supply the cause of advance in eggs; excitement because of the
wars in foreign nations the cause of advance in sugar and flour.
CHICAGO.'We are selling sugar less than jobbers are asking, as we believe this is only
a scare market and have enough to ford us over.
CHICAGO.There is a very large shortage in fresh meats at the stockyards, and it is
hard to get what you want; never saw anything like it right now, and can not understand it, as no exporting is being done, and we all looked for a decline instead of a
raise, and it is hurting business right now.
CLEVELAND.Sugar cost me at this date $8 per hundredweight by the barrel.
DALLAS.Prices are sure soaring in Dallas on everything in the grocery line and
meat. They claim the war is doing it.
DALLAS.We are paying 31 cents a pound for pork loins.
DENVER.Sugar advanced $3 in 10 days, wholesale price.
DENVER.Sugar, war prices, but sold September, 1911, at $7.50; August, 1912, at
$6.50. Meats show very little raise by the retailer. Canned goods have not been
raised to the consumer so far by us.
JACKSONVILLE.Groceries have advanced, sugar, flour, hams, and bacon, but I have
a large stock and have not raised my prices, but most grocers have.
JACKSONVILLE.Small strips of breakfast bacon cost us now 23 cents in Baltimore.
(Date of last invoice, Aug. 14, 1914.)
JACKSONVILLE.From present indications we will be compelled to raise our prices,
as wholesale prices are rapidly advancing.
LITTLE ROCK.'Rough meats, such as chucks and plate, are 2 to 2J cents per pound
higher at wholesale. Price pork loins are: Fresh pork loins, wholesale price, 23 cents
per pound; frozen pork loins are 20 and 21 cents. We are retailing pork chops for 30
cents per pound and pork roast at 25 cents. Pork shoulders are retailing at 20 cents.
MEMPHIS.All pork products have advanced in the last four weeks, so that I was
compelled to advance my prices on same.
MEMPHIS.Seems to us that the packers have taken undue advantage of the war
scare. Frozen pork loins that were selling in Memphis last week for 16 cents sold
yesterday for 22 cents. The whole line has taken a boost in about the same order.
Sugar was wholesaling last Friday at $4.75; is worth $8 to-day.
MILWAUKEE.Note price on sugar. We are selling it at what the jobber is asking
for it at wholesale. Outlook is for 10-cent sugar.
MINNEAPOLIS.Suppose the speculation in wheat the cause of flour going up, and
the decline in the amount of eggs coming in to the market the cause of eggs going
up. The scarcity of butter the same. Sugar speculation.

BULLETIN OF THE BTJKEAU OF LABOR STATISTICS.
NEWARK.Steers cost 16 cents a pound, pork loins 23 cents a pound, hams 20 cents
a pound, and lambs 19 cents a pound.
NEW ORLEANS.Beef, veal, and pork very scarce on this market. Some packing
companies receiving local meat, which is very poor grade. Not much fed stock
received.
NEW ORLEANS.Pork loins have advanced to 22 cents on frozen stock and 24 cents
on fresh loins. Can not understand the reason for this advance.
NEW YORK.Sugar refiners ask 7J cents for loose granulated, \ cent more for 3J
packets. We look for higher prices. Flour advancing gradually.
NEW YORK.-Good beef is very hard to get at present, very high and scarce. City
cut pork loins were up to 24 cents per pound for several days last week. Western
are somewhat cheaper.
PHILADELPHIA.Sugar is worth $7.50 wholesale to-day, which should make our selling price at least 8 cents. Flour is worth to-day 95 cents. We are selling flour and
sugar at less than what we would have to pay for them to-day.
PROVIDENCE.The wholesale rate on meat in this market has been going higher for
the last three months, and we were forced to raise our prices.
ST. LOUIS.Sugar we are selling a little below cost to-day, being Saturday. Monday
we must sell 12 pounds for $1. Cost of sugar here is 8J. Navy beans have gone up
from $2.35 to $3.50 per bushel. Gold Medal flour to-day is $6.25 per barrel wholesale.
SALT LAKE CITY.Sugar has gone up to $7.75 and $7.95 per hundredweight to us.
Within five days was $5.05 and $5.25.

SALT LAKE CITY.You will notice an advance on all pork, both fresh and cured.
Butter, eggs, andflourall on the up gra.de. The war scare has raised the prices of nearly
all the necessities.
SAN FRANCISCO.Sugar has made rapid advances in the past two weeks, from $4.50
to $7.75.
SCRANTON.During the past 10 days prices onflout-,butter, sugar, and potted meats
have advanced beyond all reason. Sugar almost double. Local produce (vegetables
and fruits) are good and cheap.
SPRINGFIELD.The only cause I can see for raise on pork is the packers. They
went from 16J to 24 cents in one day and a half in face of decline in live hogs.
SPRINGFIELD.The change in pork chops loin is because the packers have raised
from 20 to 25 cents per pound and lambs are 14 and 15 cents per pound.
SPRINGFIELD.Fresh pork loins advanced from 17 cents per pound to 26 cents wholesale inside of four days. Bacon and all other meats went up in proportion. I am
getting 30 cents for fresh chops and 25 cents for frozen.
September.
ATLANTA.Bou'ght flour heavily in June and have not advanced retail prices.
Fresh vegetables still extremely plentiful, cheapness of apples affecting other
fruits, and in our opinion will affect the consumption of dried and canned fruits.
Trade is encouraging, buying the less expensive cuts of meats more and more.
BIRMINGHAM.The flour we quote would cost us more to buy than we are getting
for it, and we can't see the reason for it in the face of the Government report on the
wheat crop.
CHICAGO.Flour up on account of price of wheat.
FALL RIVER.The beef market is very high. Cattle that look like Texas steers
which have been fed a little corn are bringing 12J to 13J cents per pound.
JACKSONVILLE.Prices were on an average of 5 cents higher the first of the month,
due to the very high wholesale prices. (Meat.) Pork was 25 cents per pound wholesale. Prices now back to normal.
MINNEAPOLIS.All canned meats, and sugar, flour, etc., holding steady advanced
price upward, presumably on account of the European war.
19
MINNEAPOLIS.Light receipts of butter and eggs cause of advance.

PHILADELPHIA.Decline in steaks, due to reduction in wholesale price on hind
quarters beef. Increase in eggs due to inability to secure enough near by.
PROVIDENCE.Instead of strictly corn-fed beef I am using partly grass-fed beef.
This accounts for reduction in price from last month.
ST. LOUIS.We have advanced the price on milk on account of the extreme hot and
dry summer in our dairying department and the shortage in crops.
SALT LAKE CITY.Pork has advanced, but there has been no material change in
other meats since the war broke out.
SEATTLE.Advancescause, war.
SPRINGFIELD.The prices on beef have dropped a little on account of the cattle
that we are now getting being grass fed. Pork is still too high, according to what the
packers pay for live hogs. They are charging 18 cents wholesale for pork loins.
October,
ATLANTA.I notice a slight downward movement in my prices, excepting flour,

that remains steady. I govern my prices on quotations from salesmen, jobbers, and
merchants.
CHICAGO.One of the large flour mills predicts that flour will go up soon on account
of large export orders that are coming in, and the same applies to eggs, I am told. On
sugar we can buy much cheaper from the smaller jobber than from the larger ones.
The larger jobber does not care about it either. Say they can not meet their prices
on the sugar. This is unusual, especially as sugar has been for some time on the decline.
LITTLE ROCK.Please note prices of hogs, 7 and 8 cents; pork loins, 18 cents; bacon,
28 cents; ham, 20 cents by the 100 pounds. These prices are a hold-up on the public
and should be investigated as the loss on hogs is about 1 cent net.
Los ANGELES.The price of local ranch eggs, extra fancy, has advanced quite
sharply the past week owing to the supply not being nearly equal to the demand.
It is probably only for a short time at that high rate. Sugar has declined materially
the past week.
LOUISVILLE.Business is very quiet with indications that prices will be lower
the stagnation prevails in all lines of trade.
NEW YORK.You will notice that prices are not higher than they were a month
ago. There is lots of goods on hand, and quite a lot coming from Argentina. You will
see a very low market in beef.
PHILADELPHIA.The supply of fresh eggs is very short owing to hens moulting, so
that advance is seasonable. I find considerable complaint among shippers of high
price of feed, claiming even at the prices that there is nothing in keeping hens, and
unless there would be a change in price soon that it would not pay to continue. If
that would become general there would be'quite a shortage on near-by or local supplies.
Just a straw to show which way the wind is blowing.
PITTSBURGH.Everything remains about the same as last month. A small decline
in the price of beef was the cause of the drop of rib roast.
November.
BALTIMORE.Fresh eggs very scarce.

BUFFALO.Advance in butter due to hoof-and-mouth disease in cattle. Flour, the
war.
CHICAGO.The price on some meats has advanced in the wholesale way, but this
is owing to our stockyard being closed here for a while by the State, but retail prices
are not as yet affected by the rise in the wholesale prices. They do not raise the price
enough so that we will have to in our store here, but it is reported they will go higher.
FALL RIVER.Fresh eggs are like diamonds around here.
20
BULLETIN OF THE BTJKEAU OF LABOR STATISTICS.
LOUISVILLE.Cattle a shade easier. Local stockyard closed at present. Local

butchers bought enough stock to last until yard opens. No shortage of beef, although
calves are somewhat scarce.
PITTSBURGH.Everything about the same as last month with the exception of
pork, which has taken a drop of 2 cents per pound. I think next week beef will be
higher owing to the foot-and-mouth disease with which the cattle are affected.
SCRANTON.Practically no strictly fresh eggs. The few arriving selling 50 to 60
cents per dozen.
December.
BIRMINGHAM.Fresh eggs are very scarce and the price so high that we can not
handle them.
DALLAS.Prices remain practically unchanged, with the exception of a slight
advance in wholesale price of flour, due to heavy exports.
EL PASO.Advance in eggs on account of scarcity. Cold weather, smaller supply.
Business slow first half of December. Meat prices steady.
EL PASO.Eggs are somewhat higher than last month. Has been almost impossible to get strictly fresh eggs.
FALL RIVER.Rise in price of white meal, arbitrary on my part, not on account of
any rise in the wholesale price.
~ MINNEAPOLIS.Quotations on strictly fresh eggs vary so much that one can get
almost any price from 45 to 50 cents per dozen, for there is unusual scarcity.
NEW HAVEN.Prices of all kinds of meat lower than last month, which is somewhat surprising as there have been so many cattle destroyed by disease.
BREAD WEIGHTS.
This report shows, together with prices, the scaling weight (weight
of dough before baking), in ounces, of the principal brands of baker's
wheat bread as reported by representative bakeries in each of the
cities on the 15th of each month, January to December, 1914, and for
comparative purposes for the corresponding dates of 1913, where
available. Comparisons of weights on December 15, 1914, and on
December 15, 1913, are available for 228 brands, and of that number
the weight of 6 brands was heavier on December 15,1914, than on the
corresponding date in 1913, the weight of 89 brands was unchanged,
and the weight of 133 brands was lighter.
The weights of wheat bread shown in General Table II of this report
were reported from representative bakeries in each city. In order to
avoid identification, names of firms and brands are not disclosed, but
each firm has been given a number and each brand reported by a firm
has been designated by a letter.
The following remarks accompanied bakers' reports of bread
weights during the year 1914:
January,
PORTLAND.Bread scaled a little heavier on account cheaper strong flour.
RICHMOND.Wrapped bread almost lost out. No demand. Wrapping less than
50 per cent loaves a day. Offering premiums to sell it. Don't go;, strange, too.

the bread business, cutting prices and giving discounts, etc.

KANSAS CITY.Small reduction in weight on account of advance in flour and sugar.
Los ANGELES.'Reduction in weight made on account of increased cost of materials.
MEMPHIS.We have not cut size of loaf, although flour has advanced about $2.50
per barrel. We believe the larger bakers throughout the country are doing the same
thing. This, we think, should be appreciated by the consumers.
MILWAUKEE.Owing to the high price of flour we have reduced our weights.
MILWAUKEE.-Reduction in all weights since September 4, due to an increased
cost of flour, sugar, flavors, seeds, and almost all raw materials.
MINNEAPOLIS.We are still giving the public a 14-ounce loaf, notwithstanding a
50 per cent advance on flour, but within the next 30 days will be compelled to reduce
the size to 12 ounces.

22
MINNEAPOLIS.No change in weight or prices on our breads as yet.

NEW ORLEANS.Flour and other materials have advanced sharply; furthermore,
feed for our live stock is also high.

am thinking seriously of reducing loaves 1 ounce.
PHILADELPHIA.Weight on Brand reduced on account of increased cost of
flour, etc.
RICHMOND.Working on high price flour, can't break even. Can't pinch off much
more dough.

COAL.
Retail prices of coal for household use have been secured by the
Bureau quarterly, on January 15, April 15, July 15, and October 15,
but beginning with 1914 prices were secured semiannually on January
15 and July 15. Data showing retail prices of coal for the years prior
to 1914 will include quotations for January 15 and July 15 only.
The table which follows gives, for each of the geographical divisions, the per cent of increase or decrease in the prices of coal from
January 15, 1913, to January 15, 1914, and from July 15, 1913, to
July 15, 1914. Three kinds of coal are includedPennsylvania anthracite white ash, stove size; Pennsylvania anthracite white ash,
chestnut size; and bituminous. The comparisons are of coal for
household use and sold in ton lots. General Table IV shows actual
prices of the three classes of coal above namsd in ton lots and in
half-ton lots.
PER CENT OF INCREASE OR DECREASE IN RETAIL PRICES OF COAL IN TON LOTS FOR

Relative prices not computed owing to small quantity used in this division.
The next table compares for each of the given geographical divisions
relative prices on January 15 and July 15, each year, 1907 to 1914,
inclusive, with the average price for 1913 of three kinds of coal
Pennsylvania anthracite white ash, stove size; Pennsylvania anthracite white ash, chestnut size; and bituminous. Bituminous coal is
reported only for cities in which there is considerable demand for
bituminous coal for household use. The comparisons are of coal for
household use as sold in ton lots.

SCOPE OF STUDY AND METHOD OF OBTAINING PRICES.
This report presents for each of 44 of the most important industrial cities in the various sections of the United States the retail
prices of the principal articles of food, the weight and price of the
principal brands of wheat bread, the retail price of anthracite and
bituminous coal, and the net price of gas for household use. The
retail prices of food in Charleston, W. Va., and Springfield, 111., as
shown in this report, begin with May 15, 1914, the prices in Schenectady, N. Y., begin with June 15, 1914, and the prices for El Paso,
Tex., begin with November 15, 1914. No prices of coal were secured
for Charleston, W. Va., for the reason that for family consumption
natural gas is used to the exclusion of coal.
Data are furnished to the Bureau by approximately 725 retail
stores, 150 bakeries, 215 retail coal dealers, and 65 gas companies.
Excellent results have followed the use of the form books for reporting prices. Ninety-three out of a possible 100 per cent of reports
for January to December, 1914, from retail merchants, dairymen, and
bakers were received. A large number of firms have not required
even a letter of reminder during the six months. A number of
merchants have also stated that the stub record of prices was of
considerable value to them, as it is an easy method of preserving a
record of prices each month from year to year. In several cities
practically every report requested from merchants, dairymen, and
bakers has been received each month; this is notably true for Boston,
Denver, Kansas City, Los Angeles, Louisville, New Haven, New
York, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Scranton, and Washington. Almost
every coal firm and gas company from whom price statements were
requested has also responded to the request.
The 44 cities included in this report are important industrial cities,
representing 33 States. In a general way the city selected in each
section of the country was the city having the largest population in
that section; but, in addition, 6 smaller cities were included as being
industrially important in those sections. The 6 cities are Charleston,
W. Va., El Paso, Tex., Fall River, Mass., Schenoctady, N. Y., Scranton,
Pa., and Springfield, 111. "Within the 44 cities live one-fifth of the
total number of people, two-fifths of the urban population, and
approximately one-third of the total number engaged in gainful
occupations (not including those in agricultural pursuits) in continental United States.

FOOD.
The present report gives retail prices of the principal articles of

food in 44 industrial cities in the United States for January to
December, 1914, and for comparative purposes the prices on the corresponding dates of 1913. Prices are shown for two additional cities
for May to December, one additional city for June to December, and
one additional city for November and December, 1914. Summaries
are also presented covering the eight years from 1907 to December,
1914, inclusive.1
The retail dealers who kindly furnished the information for this
report were selected through personal visits of agents of the Bureau
and are those selling largely to the families of American, English,
Irish, German, and Scandinavian wage earners. Practically all of the
1
Previous investigations of retail prices have been made and published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
as follows: Eighteenth Annual Report, covering 1890 to 1903; Bulletin No. 59 (July, 1905), covering 1904;
Bulletin No. 65 (July, 1906), covering 1905; Bulletin No. 71 (July, 1907), covering 1906; Bulletin No. 77 (July,
1908), covering 1907; Bulletin No. 105 (August, 1912), covering 1907 to 1911; Bulletin No. 106 (August,
1912), covering January to June, 1912; Bulletin No. 108 (October, 1912), covering July and August, 1912;
Bulletin No. 110 (December, 1912), covering September and October, 1912; Bulletin No. 113 (March, 1913),
covering November and December, 1912; Bulletin No. 115 (April, 1913), covering January and February,
1913; Bulletin No. 125 (June, 1913), covering March and April, 1913; Bulletin No. 132 (August, 1913),

1914), covering November and December, 1913.

29
stores included are neighborhood stores, as such stores more nearly

represent the trade of workingmon's families. A comparatively few
"down-town" stores are includod. "Chain stores" (a number of
stores in one city owned or controlled by one firm) are not included,
except in a very few cities where such stores are so numerous that
they form a vory important factor in the city's trade. So-called
"cut-rate" stores are not included. The stores selected, with a very
few exceptions, deliver all purchases when requested.
After the agent of the Bureau had selected a store, arrangements
were made for the retail merchant to send to the Bureau a statement
of prices of the various commodities on the 15th of each month
thereafter. Return visits to the various firms are made by agents
of the Bureau whenever it is necessary to make personal inquiries
concerning the monthly price quotations.
The grade of articles quoted is that sold in each city in stores
patronized largely by the families of American, English, Irish,
German, and Scandinavian wage earners.
It is manifestly unfair to attempt any comparisons of prices
between cities widely separated or between localities where qualities,
market conditions, and freight rates vary greatly. For almost every
article it is absolutely impossible to quote prices on an identical
grade throughout the 44 cities, as the grade varies not only from city
to city but also from firm to firm within the same city, and even
varies to some extent from month to month within the same store.
Stores which vary in a marked degree the grade of articles handled
from day to day or from month to month have not been included, but
in every store there is necessarily some variation in grade. This
variation is usually more marked in fresh meats and eggs than in
other articles.
Brief descriptions of the articles and the necessary explanations
concerning each article are here presented.
Fresh beef.
In the present report prices are quoted for four cuts of beef, as
follows: Sirloin steak, round steak, rib roast, and chuck roast.
Methods of cutting beef vary considerably in different cities and to
some extent this affects retail prices.
The majority of the firms that furnished quotations for cuts of meat
quoted in this report buy "straight cattle" or carcass beef; that is,
whole carcass separated into sides (halves) as distinguished from
special cuts, such as loins, ribs, or rounds. A side or half consists of a
hind quarter and a forequarter. In separating a side or half into
quarters no ribs are cut to the hind quarter in some cities, while in
other cities the side is cut leaving 1, 2, 3, or 4 ribs on the hind quarter.

30
BULLETIN OF THE BTJKEATJ OF LABOE STATISTICS.
These ribs are sold either as roast or porterhouse steak. If sold as

steak, the rib is usually removed before weighing.
The hind quarter is separated into "loin" and "round" either by
cutting from the top of the hip near the end of the backbone through
the rump to the hip joint and then through to the front of the leg
above the stifle joint or by cutting from the leg at the stifle joint
along the leg bone to the hip joint and then through the rump to the
top of the hip at or near the tail bone. The second method gives a
larger loin and a smaller round than does the first method.
The loin of beef is cut into steaks. The cuts commonly known as
"sirloin" steak for which prices are quoted in most cities are cut
parallel to the full cut surface of the thick or butt end of the loin,
and include all cuts of the loin with any part of the hip bone in them.
The other cuts of the loin, or those from the small or thin end, are
commonly known as "porterhouse" steak in most cities.
Emphasis should be placed upon the fact that, according to the
method of cutting followed in Boston, Mass., Manchester, N. H.,
Philadelphia, Pa., and Providence, R. I., no cut corresponds to the
cut known as sirloin in other cities. In these four cities the cut
known as sirloin corresponds to the cut described above as porterhouse, and in this report the quotations of prices for the cities just
named are for the cut known locally as sirloin. The cut commonly
known as sirloin is sold in Fall River, Mass., under the name of
"rump" steak, and in this report the prices quoted for that city are
for the article known locally as "rump" steak.
The round of beef is separated at the hip joint into the rump and
the round. The rump has part of the hip bone in it and is called
rump, bouillon, or butchers' roast.
The round has the leg bone in it. The great majority of the prices
quoted for round steak are for "whole" round; .that is, for a cut that
includes the top round, bottom round, and bone. Quotations from
a few firms are for "top round, bone out," or "top round, bone in."
Top round is cut from the inside of the leg or round and extends about
half through the round to the leg bone, and to the tissue or membrane
which marks the natural division between the inside and outside of
the leg. The inside is tender while the outside is muscular and more
or less tough. Some firms cut the top round to include the leg bone
and a small part of the bottom round. Firms that sell top round
usually sell the bottom or outside for pot roast or Hamburg steak.
In many cities no bone or fat is trimmed from either sirloin or round
steak before weighing, while in .others some bone and fat or all bone
and fat are cut oft before steaks are weighed.
Forequarters include ribs, chucks, plates, and shanks. The shank
is removed by cutting through the shoulder joint or by sawing through
the leg bone below the shoulder joint. The plate is separated from

the ribs and chuck by cutting through the ribs on a line beginning
about the middle of the rib next to the hind quarter and running
parallel to the backbone to the point where the shank is removed.
If the line or cut be nearer the backbone, the ribs are short, more
desirable, and higher priced.
"Ribs" are usually separated from chucks by cutting across the
backbone between the fifth and sixth ribs, counting from the front
backward. "Ribs" usually include about eight ribs, two of which
have part of the shoulder blade in them.
The prices quoted for rib roast are for cuts of ribs that do not have
any part of the shoulder blade in them. Some firms in some cities
cut rib roast short and trim off part of the chine bone before weighing.
Chucks extend from the point where ribs and chucks are separated
to the neck. Chuck roast as quoted in this report includes five ribs
and part of the shoulder blade. The prices quoted are for the best
cut, which is next to the butt end of the ribs. No relative prices
have been computed for chuck roast.
Plates include the forequarter flank or navel and the brisket. The
flank or the navel extends from about the eighth rib to the hindquarter flank, and the brisket extends from about the eighth to the
first rib and includes all the breastbone.
All quotations for fresh beef in this report are on the basis of 1
pound, but of course in many, if not most, cases the usual sale is in
quantities of more than 1 pound.
As stated elsewhere, the grade of beef quoted is not identical
throughout the 44 cities, nor is the grade identical in a store throughout the period for which prices are quoted, but the article quoted is
the best grade of meat on sale at the date of each quotation in the
store selected, and the stores selected were those patronized largely
by the families of American, English, Irish, German, and Scandinavian wage earners.
Pork chops.
The quotations are for loin chops.

Prices are quoted on the pound basis, but many of the sales are for
quantities larger than 1 pound.
Bacon.
Prices are reported by each dealer on the best grade of smoked

bacon that he sells in any considerable quantity to families of wage
earners.
No fancy bacon ready sliced in glass jars or other small packages
is quoted.
The prices quoted are in most cases for bacon sliced when sold, but
in a number of cities some of the dealers sell relatively little sliced

32
BULLETIN OP THE BTJEEAU OF LABOR STATISTICS.
bacon and therefore have quoted bacon by the piece and have reported
the usual range of weight of such pieces.
Prices are quoted on the pound basis, but many sales are of quantities larger than a pound.
Ham.
Prices are reported by each dealer on the best grade of smoked

ham that he sells in any considerable quantity to families of wage
earners.
The prices quoted are in most cases for ham sliced when sold, but
in a number of cities some of the dealers sell relatively little sliced
ham and therefore have quoted whole hams and have in most cases
reported the usual range of weight of such hams.
Some of the firms that sell sliced ham cut only four or five slices
from the middle of the ham and sell the ends without slicing. On
the other hand, some dealers slice practically all the ham and in such
cases the prices quoted are for the best slices from the middle of the
ham.
Prices are quoted on the pound basis, but in many, if not most,
cases the usual quantity sold is greater than 1 pound.
Lard.
All quotations are for "pure" lard with the exception of a few for
"pure leaf." No "compound" lard is quoted. The great majority
of quotations are for " t u b " lard (lard sold in bulk). Some quotations, however, are for lard in pails. Tub lard is quoted by the
pound. In many cases tub lard is customarily sold in quantities of
2 or more pounds, and in all such cases the price quoted in this report
is reduced to the pound basis. Where lard is sold by the pail, the
price is quoted per pail, the net weight being given in each case.
Leg of lamb, yearling.
The prices quoted in this report are for the article generally known
to the trade as "yearling." The age of the sheep (yearling) varies
from approximately 9 to 18 months. Owing to the fact that, in
some firms, the age varies considerably with different seasons of the
year, no "relative" prices are computed for this article in the report
of the Bureau.
Kens,
Prices are quoted for "hens" at least a year old, such as are usually
sold for roasting or stewing, and in some cities for stewing only.
In some localities the term used for these hens is either "fowls,"
"stewing," or "fricassee" chickens.
The quotations are in most cases for "dressed" hens, although a
few dealers reported prices for "live" hens. Dressed hens are
described as "drawn" or "not drawn." In a few cities hens aare
sold "full dressed"; that is, drawn and with head and feet off.
Throughout all cities reporting the basis of sale is 1 pound.
33
Flour, wheat.
Flour is quoted by the eighth-barrel bag for about 30 of the cities,

by the eighth-barrel bag with a few firms quoting fourth-barrel bags
in a few cities, by the fourth-barrel bag with an occasional firm
quoting half-barrel bags for some of the Pacific coast cities, by the
20-pound bag by two firms in Indianapolis, and by the sixteenthbarrel bag from an occasional firm in a few of the cities. The weight
of the various size bags varies slightly in different localities; the halfbarrel bag weighs from 96 to 98 pounds, the fourth-barrel bag from
48 to 49 pounds, and the eighth-barrel bag from 23 to 24J pounds.
These weights are in some instances net and in others gross. Great
quantities of flour are sold in sixteenth and in thirty-second barrel
bags, particularly in the eastern cities, but the eighth-barrel bag is a
very popular size in most of the cities for which prices were secured,
and for ready comparison that size has been quoted where possible.
In a few of the cities the price of flour is "protected"; that is, the
flour manufacturer fixes a minimum selling price for the retailer.
The quotations from each firm are for a definite brand, or brands
of equivalent grade, throughout the period for which prices are
quoted, except as indicated. The name of the brand quoted has
been entered in connection with the price. V/here a merchant has
quoted a brand manufactured especially for his trade or which carries his firm name the flour has been entered as "special brand," in
order not to disclose the identity of the firm furnishing information
to the Bureau.
Corn meal.
The corn moal for which prices are given is bulk or bag meal, and
not fancy meal in cartons or packages except in a few cities where
the bulk of sales are of package meal. The color of the meal handled varies, generally speaking, according to the locality, yellow
being sold as a rule in cities of the North, white in southern cities,
and both white and yellow in Denver, Salt Lake City, and the cities
on the Pacific coast.
The price of corn meal is quoted in this report on a 1-pound basis.
These figures have been derived from the price charged by the
dealer for the quantity of corn meal most in demand among his customers and represent a great variety of units of sale. In, New England and other northern cities the amounts sold are usually small,
being as a rule from 2 to 5 pounds, the 5 cents' worth, or the 10
cents' worth. In most southern cities sales of 10 pounds or more
predominate, while in the cities of the far West reports on any other
unit than 10 pounds are exceptional,

BULLETIN OF THE BUEEAU OF LABOB STATISTICS.

Eggs.
Prices of eggs are reported from grocery stores with the exception
of a few instances in which quotations have been secured from dairy
firms. The prices quoted are for "strictly fresh" eggs of the highest
grade handled by the firm on the date of each quotation, excluding
fancy eggs or eggs selected for size and color. Many of the firms
represented in this study carry both fresh and storage eggs whenever
both are on the market, and some firms at certain seasons do not
carry any "strictly fresh" eggs. The trade terms used to describe
the eggs for which quotations are given vary with the locality. On
the Atlantic coast, for example, common descriptive terms are
"near-by," "State," "eastern," and "western"; in the Middle West,
"near-by" and "country"; in certain' southern cities, "near-by"
and "Tennessee"; and on the Pacific coast, "ranch" and "eastern,
fresh."
Some quotations for "storage" eggs were secured for the period
1907 to 1911, but the number was insufficient for purposes of publication. Prices were quoted in Bulletin No. 106, Part II, for storage
eggs for the months of January and February, 1912, and in the succeeding bulletins covering the months of January and February and
November and December of each year, prices for storage eggs are
quoted. Some few firms quoted storage eggs for the spring, summer,
and fall months, but those quotations were not entered in the reports,
as it appeared that in some cases, at least, the article quoted as "storage" during the spring months was eggs "iced in transit" and not
eggs that had been in storage. No relative prices have been computed for storage eggs.
All prices in the table are quoted on the dozen basis, and in most
cities included in this study the dozen is the only unit of sale of importance. In New York City, however, purchases by the 25 cents' worth
are common, and in the Pacific coast cities two dozen becomes at
times the prevailing unit of sale, owing to the fact that it is a common
practice to make a special rate on this quantity (as, for example, 65
cents per two dozen when the price is 35 cents per dozen). In such
cases the price as quoted on the most usual unit of sale has been reduced to the rate per dozen.
Butter.
The quotations for butter represent the grade of butter known on

the market as "creamery extra." Dairy butter and brands designated as specials or fancy have not been included.
Creamery extras are sold in two ways: In bulk, otherwise known
as "tub" butter, or in bricks, termed "print" butter. When print
butter is put up in cartons it is often termed "package" butter.

EETAIL PBICES, 1907 TO DECEMBER, 1914.
35
The demands for print or tub butter seem to rest on local preferences. In some cities the price is the same for both; in others print
butter is quoted at 1 or 2 cents higher than tub.
AH prices in the table are quoted on the pound basis.
In some of the Pacific coast cities butter is usually sold in 2-pound
prints, locally known as "squares," but all such quotations hare been
reduced to the 1-pound basis.
Potatoes.
All quotations for potatoes are for the article known in many
localities as "Irish" potatoes, which signifies the "white" potato in
contradistinction to the "sweet." The extensive variety of Irish
potatoes on the market and the fact that retailers do not confine
their buying to one variety have made it impracticable to quote varieties or grades.
New potatoes have been quoted only when they form the bulk
of the sales. This is usually when new potatoes grown in or near
the locality are plentiful, as the price of new potatoes shipped from
a distance is generally prohibitive to the mass of trade in the stores
reporting.
The peck, or a fractional part of a peck, is the unit of sale for
practically all eastern cities except New York. In the West potatoes
are sold by weight, using the 100-pound lot as a basis. In the western cities reporting there is a demand during the summer for smaller
quantities than the 100-pound lot, which results in sales of 25 cents',
50 cents', and 1 dollar's worth.
In New York the unit of sale for Irish potatoes varies materially
from store to store, and also in some cases from month to month
within the same store. For example, in Now York the amount sold
for a quart varies from 2\ to 4 pounds, and within the same store
the number of pounds of new potatoes sold for a quart is generally
less than the number of pounds of old potatoes sold for a quart.
Prices for New York, except when quoted by the peck, are reduced
to a pound basis, but the usual unit of sale is also shown for each
store.
Sugar.
All quotations are for granulated sugar and are on a pound basis.
These prices per pound in most cases have been derived from prices
as reported by the dealers on the quantities most in demand. Such
quantities vary in the cities represented. The common units of
sale in most cities are 25-cent, 50-cent, and $1 lots. In certain
cities, notably New York and Philadelphia, smaller quantities are
reported as the usual units of sale.

36
BULLETIN OF THE BTJKEAU OF LABOK STATISTICS.

Milk.
All quotations are by the quart and are for milk regularly delivered to customers.
In connection with each quotation is a statement as to whether
the milk is sold bottled or dipped from the can as sold, and also a
statement indicating whether the milk is sold " r a w " or "pasteurized."
All quotations are from dairies, either the original producer or a
milk dealer, and none are from grocers.
The method of sale is in some cases by the quart, and a bill is
rendered monthly for the quantity actually served. In other cases a
certain number of tickets, each exchangeable for 1 quart of milk, is
sold for $1, usually with a slight gain to the consumer. Thus, if
milk is 9 cents per quart, 12 tickets may be sold for $1. Some of
the dairies in the Pacific coast cities charge a definite sum monthly
for a quart of milk each day, the price being the same for each
calendar month.
BREAD WEIGHTS.
The Weights of wheat bread, tabulated separately by cities, firms,

and brands, are the weights at which the respective breads were
scaled on the 15th of each month from January to December, 1914,
and, where available, corresponding information for the same months
of 1913 is shown for comparison. This scaling weight is the weight
of the loaf before baking. While it would be highly desirable to prosent the weight of the loaf as actually purchased by the consumer,
the complications involved in the relation of the scaled weight to the
weight of the bread when it passes over the retailer's counter were
found to be such that it was impossible to do so. The loss of
weight in baking varies with the formula, with the style of loaf,
and with the temperature of the oven. A further element of uncertainty affecting weights enters before the consumer actually gets
the loaf. The weight, of course, varies with the time intervening
between the removal of the loaf from the oven and its final distribution to the consumer, the loss by evaporation also being partly
determined by the conditions under which the bread is kept and by
the state of the atmosphere.
The customary loss in baking is variously estimated by bakers,
but it may be said that a loaf scaled at 18 ounces will when sold, if
handled under ordinary conditions, weigh not far from 16 ounces,
and a loaf scaled at 16 ounces will, when baked and cooled, weigh
about 14| ounces. As noted above, however, the range of loss
varies widely.
From General Table II of this report for each city all fancy, special,
graham, rye, and restaurant breads are excluded. All wrapped and
so-called "French" breads are so designated.
RETAIL PBICES, 1907 TO DECEMBEE, 1914.
37
In the use of these data it must be borne clearly in mind that

weight is only one factor entering into the bread question as an
element in the study of prices. The quality of materials used varies
widely and is likely to be reflected in the weight at which the loaf is
scaled.
It is hoped that at some future time it may be possible to present
baked weights as well as scaled weights; but, as already explained,
this was impracticable in the present report.
The most representative bakeries in every city included in this
report have promptly furnished to the Bureau information concerning bread weights on the 15th of each month.
COAL.
This report shows the increase in retail prices of coal during the
period since 1907 and gives actual prices of coal on January 15 and
on July 15, 1914. For comparative purposes prices are also entered
for the corresponding dates in 1913. The prices shown are those
quoted for retail trade for household use. The table of prices
shows Pennsylvania anthracite white-ash coal both in stove size
and in chestnut size; bituminous coal of several kinds; and in a few
cities other varieties, such as Colorado anthracite. Prices are quoted
for sales "in ton lots," and "in half-ton lots." The prices were
quoted by coal dealers, who supplied the information at the request
of the Bureau. In some cities practically all sales for household use
were of anthracite coal, and in other cities of bituminous coal. Bituminous coal is reported only for cities in which there is considerable
demand for bituminous for household use. The coal dealers in
each city were asked to quote prices on the kind of bituminous
coal usually sold for household use. The prices quoted are for
coal delivered to consumers, but do not include charges for storing
the coal in cellar or coal bin where an extra handling was necessary,
except as noted in connection with the price quotation.1
GAS.
This report gives prices of gas for household use on April 15 and
October 15, 1914, and for purposes of comparison the prices on October 15, 1913, the date of the last previous report, have been entered.
The prices quoted are the net rates charged for gas for household use
as distinguished from use by manufacturing plants and industrial
establishments. Where a sliding scale of prices, based on amount
consumed, was reported, the price for the smallest quantity has been
quoted, except in Salt Lake City, where the quotation has been noted,
as the smallest quantity is less than the amount usually consumed for
i Previous reports, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, containing data relative to retail prices
of coal for household use, are Bulletins Nos. 105,106,108,110,113, 115,125,132, 136,138, and 140.

domestic purposes. The prices are the same for gas for illuminating,
cooking, and heating purposes, except as noted in the table. Prices
are in most cases for manufactured gas, but natural gas has also been
quoted where that is in general use. The data were furnished by
the gas companies, who kindly responded to the Bureau's request for
this information.1
EXPLANATION OF TABLES.
This report includes four general tables, as follows:

Table I.Retail prices of the principal articles of food on the 15th
of each month, January to December, 1913, and January to December, 1914, by cities and by firms. This table is in two sections, A
and B.
Table II.Bread weights: Scaling weight (weight of dough before
baking), in ounces, of the principal brands of wheat bread on the 15th
of each month, January to December, 1913, and January to December, 1914, by cities and by firms and brands. This table is in two
sections, A and B.
Table III.Relative retail prices of the principal articles of food,
1907 to December, 1914, by geographical divisions.
Table IV.Retail prices of coal, for household use, on January
15 and July 15, 1913, and January 15 and July 15, 1914, by cities
and by firms.
Table I.Retail prices of the principal articles of food on the 15th
of each month, January to December, 1913, and January to December,
1914, by cities and by firms {pp. 41 to 293).This table includes 44 of
the most important industrial cities in the various sections of the
United States. For each city prices are quoted for 18 principal articles of food. Prices are quoted for the 15th of each month, January
to December, 1914, and for comparative purposes prices on the corresponding date in 1913 have been entered. When the 15th fell on
Sunday or on a holiday, the prices quoted were for the 16th of the
month.
For convenience this table is divided into two sections: A shows
prices for the period from January to August of 1913 and 1914; B
shows prices for the period from September to December of 1913
and 1914.
The 44 cities are arranged in alphabetical order, and under the
various cities the articles follow a uniform order, beginning with
fresh meats. The particular grade or description of each article is
shown in connection with the price quotations. Great care was taken
to secure prices throughout the period covered for an article of as
i Previous reports, published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, containing data relative to prices of
gas lor household use, are Bulletins Nos. 105,106,108,110,113,115,125,132,136,138, and 140.

RETAIL PRICES, lOOY TO DECEMBER, 1914.

nearly uniform grade or quality as possible within each store as

changes in quality are, of course, reflected in prices.
Price quotations were secured from several firms in each city. In
order to avoid identification, names of firms are not shown, but
each firm has been given a number, which enables one to follow the
prices quoted throughout the period for which a firm has been furnishing price quotations, either for the present report or for the
preceding reports, covering the period from 1907 to December, 1913.
Three articles are included in this table which are not carried into
the tables showing relative prices of food; these articles are chuck
roast, storage eggs, and leg of lamb (yearling).
Table ILBread weights: Scaling weight (weight of dough before
balcing), in ounces, of the principal brands of wheat bread on the ISih
of each month, January to December, 1913, and January to December,
1914, by cities and by firms and brands (pp. 294 to 320).This table
shows the scaling weight, in ounces, of the principal brands of wheat
bread in the cities covered by this report. The weights are quoted
for the 15th of each month, January to December, 1914, and for comparative purposes weights on the corresponding dates in 1913 have
been entered where available. When the 15th fell on Sunday or on
a holiday, the weights quoted were for the 16th of the month.
For convenience this table is divided into two sections: A shows
scaling weights for the period from January to August of 1913 and
1914; B shows scaling weights for the period from September to
December of 1913 and 1914.
Weight quotations were secured from several representative bakeries in each city. In order to avoid identification, names of firms
and brands are not shown, but each firm has been given a number
and each brand reported by a firm has been designated by a letter.
Table III.Relative retail prices of the principal articles of food, 1907
to December, 1914, by geographical divisions (pp. 321 to 335).This
table shows for each of 15 principal articles of food the relative price
for each year from 1907 to 1914, inclusive, and for each month from
January, 1911, to December, 1914. Relative prices are not shown
for chuck roast, leg of lamb, and storage eggs for reasons stated on
page 5.
As explained on a previous page, a relative price of any article is
the per cent which the price of that article at any certain date is
of the price of the same article at a date or period which has been
selected as the base or standard.
The base selected for this compilation of retail prices is the average
price for 1913.
The value of the relative price is that it enables the reader to
measure more readily the course of prices of a single article and also

40
BULLETIN OF THE BUREAU OP LABOR STATISTICS.
to follow the course of prices of groups of articles. The relative

price also permits the continuation of a price series when for any
reason quotations from one firm are discontinued and quotations
from another firm for a different quality or brand of article are
secured instead, which article, though differing somewhat from the
one formerly quoted, equally well represents the trend of the general
market.
The many changes in firms furnishing prices and also the changes
in grades and brands of articles make several steps necessary in
order to arrive at the relative price of an article for a geographical
division or for the United States. The methods followed in this
report are fully explained in Appendix A.
Table IV.Retail prices of coal, for household use, on January 15
and July 15, 1913, and January 15 and July 15, 1914, iy cities and
hy firms (pp. 386 to 355).This table shows prices of coal in the cities
for which retail prices of food are shown. Prices are quoted for
Pennsylvania anthracite coal, stove size, Pennsylvania anthracite
coal, chestnut size, and bituminous coal for January 15 and July 15,
1914, and for comparative purposes prices on the corresponding
dates in 1913 have been entered. In some cities practically no
bituminous coal is used for household purposes, and in others practically no Pennsylvania anthracite coal is used. Bituminous coal is
reported only for cities in which there is considerable demand for
bituminous for household use. In a few cities Colorado anthracite
and in one or two cities lignite and other varieties of coal are quoted.
Prices in most cases are quoted for coal in " ton lots" and in "halfton lots." In connection with prices the number of pounds per ton
and per hah7 ton is also shown.
The quotations were furnished by coal dealers in each city, who
responded to a request from the Bureau for this information. To
avoid identification, firm names are not shown, but each firm has
been given a number which enables one to follow the prices quoted
throughout the period for which a firm has been furnishing price
quotations, either for the present report or for preceding reports.
The prices quoted are for coal delivered to consumers, but do not
include charges for storing the coal in cellar or coal bin where an
extra handling is necessary, except as noted in connection with the
price quotation.

i The prices are for the article generally known to the trade as "yearling." The age of the sheep ("yearling") varies from approximately 9 to 18 months. Owing to the fact
that, in some firms, the age varies considerably with different seasons of the year, no "relative" prices are computed for this article in this report.

1 The prices are for the article generally known to the trade as "yearling." The age of the sheep ("yearling") varies from approximately 9 to 18 months. Owing to the fact
that, in some firms, the age yaries considerably with difEerent seasons of the year, no "relative" prices are computed for this article in this report.

The prices are for the article generally known to the trade as " yearling." The age of the sheep ("yearling") varies from approximately 9 to 18 months. Owing to the fact
that, in some firms, the age of the sheep varies considerably with different seasons of the year, no "relative" prices are computed for this article in this report.

The prices are for the article generally known to t h e trade as "yearling." T h e age of thesheep (" yearling") varies from approximately 9 to 18 months. Owing to t h e fact that, in some firms, the age varies
considerably with different seasons of the year, no " r e l a t i v e " prices are computed for this article in this
report.

The prices are for the article generally known to the trade as " yearling." The age of the sheep (" yearling ") varies approximately from 9 to 18 months. Owing to the fact that, in some firms, the age varies
considerably with different seasons of the year, no " relative " prices are computed for this article in this
report.

i The prices are for the article generally known to the trade as "yearling." The age of the sheep ("yearling") varies from approximately 9 to 18 months. Owing to the fact that, in some firms, the age varies
considerably with diflerent seasons of the year, no "relative" prices are computed for this article in this
report.

in this report, but in this city it is called "sirloin" steak.
"The prices are for the article generally known to the trade as "yearling." Theageof the sheep ("yearling") varies from approximately 9 to 18 months. Owing to the fact that, in some firms, the age varies

APPENDIX A.EXPLANATION OF METHOD OF COMPUTING

RETAIL PRICES AND INDEX NUMBERS.
INTRODUCTION.
The methods formerly used by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in

calculating relative retail prices and index numbers have been
changed, and the base period to which all relative price variations
are referred has been shifted from 1890-1899 to the last completed
year, 1913 being the base year in this report. In the following pages
the old methods of computation are explained, and the reasons
which have led to the discarding of these methods and the adoption
of the new methods.
RELATIVE PRICES.
A relative price of any article is the per cent which the price of
that article at any certain date is of the price of the same article
at a date or period which has been selected as the base period. The
prices for the base year or period are represented for the purposes
of comparison as equal to 100. Relative prices enable the reader
to follow more readily the course of prices of a single article. An
index number may be denned as a combination of individual commodity prices in such a way as to form a general relative price for
a group of several commodities. A series of index numbers enables
one to follow the percentage changes in the prices of a group of
articles taken as a whole. A retail-price index or index number
should measure with the closest approximation to exactness the
percentage changes from period to period in the cost of living, so
far as the cost of living is reflected in the prices of the commodities
which are carried in the retail-price index.
METHOD FORMERLY USED IN COMPUTING RELATIVE RETAIL PRICES
FOR SEPARATE COMMODITIES.
In preceding bulletins of this Bureau relative retail prices for

each article for a geographical division and for the United States
were computed as follows:
For the period from 1890 to 1903, during which time there were
no changes in the list of firms furnishing quotations of retail prices,

357
358
(1) a relative price for each of the 14 years was computed for each
article quoted from each firm by dividing the average price for
each year by the average price for the 10-year period from 1890 to
1899. The average price for the 10-year period was used as the base
in preference to the price for any single year, for the reason that an
average price for a number of years more nearly represents average
or normal conditions than does the price for a single year, when
abnormal conditions may prevail as to the prices of one or all of
the articles included within the investigation. (2) For each separate
article (e. g., sirloin steak) the relative prices computed as above
for all firms reporting in a given city were added and the sum divided
by the number of firms to produce the average relative for the city.
City relatives were thus computed for each of the 30 articles. (3)
The relative prices of sirloin steak for all of the cities within a geographical division were added and the sum divided by the number
of cities included, which produced the relative price of sirloiu steak
for the geographical division. (4) The relative prices of sirloin steak
for all of the cities included in the study were added and the sum
divided by.the number of cities, which produced the relative price
of sirloin steak for the United States. These calculations were
repeated for each of the 30 food commodities included in the retailprice index, giving a relative price for each commodity for each
geographical division and for the United States.
The many unavoidable changes in firms furnishing retail prices, aud
also the changes in grades and brands of articles, made it necessary
to devise some means for including the new firms and the substituted grades and brands in computing the relative prices for the
period following 1903. In such cases the method adopted was as
follows: (1) For all new firms added in connection with the 1904
report, prices were also secured for 1903. (2) For each article quoted
the average price for 1904 was divided by the average price for 1903.
This produced the relative price in 1904 with the price in 1903 as the
base, or 100. (3) These relative prices, computed for all of the firms
in a city quoting prices of the article, were added and the sum divided
by the number of firms, which produced the relative for the city with
1903 as the base. (4) The relatives for all of the cities within a
geographical division were added and the sum divided by the number of cities included, which produced the relative for the geographical
division with 1903 as the base. (5) The relative prices for ail of the
cities included in the study were added and the sum divided by the
number of cities, which produced the relative for the United States
on the 1903 base. (6) The relative price of the article for 1904 on
the 1903 base was then multiplied by the relative price for 1903 on
the 1890-1899 base calculated as described above, to obtain the rela-

tive for 1904 on the 1890-1899 base. For example, in the North
Atlantic division it was found that the average relative price of wheat
flour in 1904 as compared with its average price in 1903 was 117.91.
The average relative price of wheat flour in 1903 as compared with
its average price for the period 1890-1899 was 101.6. Multiplying
117.91 by 101.6 gives 119.8, which was taken as the relative price of
wheat flour for this geographical division in 1904 on the 1890-1899
base.
From 1907 to 1910, inclusive, retail prices were secured for the
15th of every second month, and in 1911 for the loth of each month.
Bimonthly or monthly relative prices for each individual commodity
quoted by each firm were computed by dividing the price reported
from each firm by the average price of the same firm for the preceding
year. The relatives for geographical divisions and for the United
States were worked out by the method described in the preceding
paragraph.
Retail prices were published in the Eighteenth Annual Report of
the United States Commissioner of Labor for 30 different food commodities for the period 1890 to 1903, inclusive. Bulletins 59, 65,
71, and 77 continued price quotations for the 30 articles enumerated down to and including 1907. From 1908 on it was deemed
inadvisable to attempt to carry price quotations for all of the 30
articles originally included because the quality of some of the
articles changed so radically from year to year and even from
month to month. Only 15 food commodities have been carried in
the list for which relative prices are computed since 1907. As
explained on page 5, prices have been published for 3 other articles
of food, but relatives have not been computed therefor.
For an accurate comparison to show price changes from one period
of time to another, only prices of identical articles reported by identical firms can be used. In the list of articles now included in the
Bureau index number each article has been carefully selected and is
as nearly uniform in quality throughout the country and the years as
possible. Absolute uniformity throughout a period of years or
throughout the country is, of course, practically impossible. It is
necessary to follow the custom of the locality, and some variation
from season to season or from year to year is inevitable. New
firms are added from time to time, and occasionally old firms drop
out altogether or fail to report prices for some commodity for one or
more months of the year. Beginning with 1912, price quotations
were obtained by correspondence, supplemented by personal visits
of agents of the Bureau, and lapses in reports from firms were not
infrequent. Consequently a considerable number of firms had a
break in the series of quotations preventing the computation of a

360

yearly average, and the reports of such firms could not be used if a
computation of the relative price was to be based on the average price
for a full year.
In order to include as many firms as possible in the comparisons of
prices, it was decided to compare identical firms month by month,
beginning with 1912. For example, a relative price for round steak
was computed for each firm reporting prices of round steak in both
December, 1911, and January, 1912, by dividing the January price
by the December price. This gave the relative price of round steak
for each firm for January on the December, 1911, base. A simple
arithmetic average of the individual firm relatives was made for the
firms reporting from a given city, as explained above, and the city
relatives were combined as before to produce the relative prices for
geographical divisions and for the United States. These relative
prices were shifted to the 1890-1899 base by multiplying them by the
December relative for round steak, computed, as above explained, on
the 1890-1899 base. All the steps outlined above were repeated for
each commodity. In exactly the same way prices reported by identical firms for January and February were compared and the process
repeated to obtain February relatives, first on the January basis, these
relatives being later shifted to the 1890-1899 basis by multiplying
through by the January relatives computed on that base. These
price comparisons and calculations were continued for FebruaryMarch, March-April, and so on until relatives for each individual
commodity for each month of the year were computed. The relative
price of any commodity for the year was made by calculating the
simple arithmetic average of the twelve monthly relatives of that commodity. The methods described were employed to construct relative
prices of individual commodities until January, 1914, when the new
methods of computing relative prices, described on page 373, et seq.,
were put into operation.
THE OLD INDEX NUMBERS.
Besides showing price changes of single commodities by percentages of the prices in the base period, it is desirable to show general
price changes on all commodities, taken together, for which price data
are obtained. For this purpose the Bureau combined the individual
price relatives of food commodities for which price quotations were
secured into two series of index numbers. The first series was a simple unweighted index number constructed by striking the simple
arithmetic average of the relative prices of the individual commodities month by month and year by year. The second series was a
weighted index number constructed by weighting the relative price
of each article by a figure representing its importance in consumption

in woikingmen's families in 1901, as calculated from the data gathered in the cost-of-living survey for that year.1 The individual commodity relatives, so weighted, were added together and divided by
the sum of the weights to obtain the general weighted index number.
Below is given the table showing the average money expenditure
per family in 1901 for the several kinds of food included in the report?
by geographical divisions and for the United States:

For convenience of calculation, the total expenditure for food in

each geographical division and in the United States was assumed to
be 10,000 value units. The table below shows the distribution of
expenditures on the assumption that 10,000 value units were expended
for food alone in each geographical district and in the United States.
Of course, the 10,COO value units in each instance represent the
expenditure in dollars and cents for each geographical division and
for the United States, e. g., for the North Atlantic division 10,000 =
5.10; for the South Atlantic division, 10,000 = 3298.64; and
so on.

Up to the end of 1907, 30 food commodities were included in the

retail-price reports of the Bureau, these articles constituting 94.3
per cent of the total food expenditures of an average workingman's
family, as indicated by the Bureau's investigation in 1901. Expenditures for the 15 food commodities carried by the Bureau in its
retail-price reports since 1907 comprise only approximately twothirds of the food budget for workingmen's families in 1901.
The percentage of total expenditures represented by the 15 articles
in each geographical division and in the United States as a whole, as
shown by the Eighteenth Annual Report, was as follows:

The number indicating the relative importance of fresh beef, 1,531,

is drawn from Table B, and denotes that for every $100 spent by the
2,567 wage-earning families for food in 1901, $15.31 was spent for
fresh beef. The relative price, 180.9, entered for fresh beef is a
simple average of the relative prices of sirloin steak, round steak, and
rib roast. The number entered in the "result" column, 276,957.9,
is the product of the relative price, 180.9, multiplied by the relative
importance, 1,531, of fresh beef.
Each of the other articles is taken up in the same way as fresh beef,
the relative prico being multiplied by the relative importance of the
article, as shown in Table B.
The grand total of the numbers indicating relative importance was
6,397, and the sum of the results obtained by multiplying the relative
price of each of the various articles by the number representing its
relative importance was 1,045,409.1. The sum of the results divided
by 6,397 gives 163.4, which is the relative price of food for the United
States in 1913, when the various articles are weighted according to
the reported consumption in 2,567 workingmen's families. It was
not possible to collect retail prices for all of the articles which enter
into the family food budget, but, as indicated above, the relative
importance of the 15 articles for which prices are shown was in 1901
6,397 out of a total of 10,000, and they therefore represented 63.97
per cent of food expenditures in the average workingman's family in
the United States.
' By this method weighted index numbers were constructed for the
different geographical divisions for all years from 1890 to 1913, inclusive, and for each month since 1911.

DEFECTS OF METHOD FORMERLY USED IN COMPUTING RELATIVE

PRICES AND INDEX NUMBERS OF RETAIL PRICES.
From the foregoing description it is apparent that the relative

prices of individual commodities., as well as the combined relative
prices of all commodities or index numbers, as heretofore constructed,
are averages of percentages. The firm relatives were averaged to
get the city relative, the city relatives were averaged to get each
geographical division relative and also the United States relative.
The individual commodity relatives for the country and its divisions
were averaged to produce the combined relative or index number
for all commodities for the whole country and its divisions; and
finally, the monthly relatives were averaged to get the yearly relatives for firms, cities, geographical divisions and the United States.
When averages of averages of relative prices are thus piled up, it
becomes difficult to comprehend the meaning of the final average,
even if no theoretical or mathematical errors are involved in the
processes.
A simple arithmetic average of percentages is useful for certain
purposes, but for the purposes of retail-price studies which should
show changes in expenditures by consumers, a percentage based on
average or aggregate actual prices of a commodity reflects more
accurately the changes in the cost of that commodity.
The table below illustrates the difference in results obtained by the
two methods of computing the relative piices of a single commodity:

The table gives the prices of round steak as sent in to the Bureau
by the 6 identical firms reporting from one city in the months of May
and June, 1913. The relative prices are computed on the May base.
The city relative prices on the bottom line of the first two columns
were computed in this case by dividing the aggregate actual prices
by the aggregate actual price for May, which makes the May relative
price 100 and the June relative price on the May base 101.4. The
relative prices on the bottom line in the last two columns were obtained
in like manner, by dividing the aggregate relative prices by the May
aggregate relative price, which gives 101.6 as the June relative price

on the May base. The relatives could have been computed from
the averages of the aggregates, but the results would have been
identical. The difference between these two relatives for succeeding
months, computed by these two different methods, amounts to 0.2
points.
The foregoing comparison of results by the two methods of computing relative prices is for round steak, an article whose price variations from month to month are frequent, but usually within rather
narrow limits. The figures fairly represent what occurs in the case
of all the articles for which the Bureau secures retail prices, except
those which are each year subject to seasonal changes, as potatoes,
eggs, and butter. In the case of these articles where the price fluctuations are not infrequently violent and sometimes capricious, the
two methods of computation may produce widely divergent results.
Thus, in Table E, where the two methods of computation have been
applied to the price of potatoes, the city relative price for June, computed by the method of averaging firm relative prices, is 113.1, while
the city relative price for June, computed by calculating the relative
of the aggregate actual prices, is 108.6. The difference is 4.5 points,
or more than 4 per cent.

The above example, based on potato prices, while showing rather

extreme fluctuations and differences in prices, is based on actual quotations reported by five firms in the same city and is a fair illustration
of what may occur in potato prices every year. It is obvious that
slight modifications in the price quotations could have made the relative prices much more strikingly incongruous than they actually are.
Thus in Table F a difference of 0.18 points, or more than 13 per
cent, is shown. Potatoes were chosen deliberately for use in the
illustration (Table F) because prices of potatoes for these months, just
at the time when the new crop begins to come in, fluctuate so capriciously. It is intended to show that the difference in principle of the
two methods of computing relative prices is not of theoretical interest
only, but presents quite startling differences in results, which can not
be ignored or set aside with the assertion that 'in the long run" dif-!
366
ferences tend to disappear and "in the end" the results will be
approximately the same. Experimentation goes to show that differences in results do not tend to disappear. The question which
method is best adapted to measure price changes accurately must be
frankly faced and decision made once and for all on the method to
be employed, with the certain knowledge that the results obtained
by the two methods may be and often are quite different.
For the purpose of showing changes in cost to the consumer the
percentage computed from aggregate actual prices, 108.6, more accurately expresses what has happened to the price of potatoes per peck
than does the percentage, 113.1, computed by averaging relative
prices. By the new method a decline of 8 cents in the price of potatoes in one shop, from 35 cents to 27 cents, would affect the aggregate,
and consequently the city relative price, by exactly the same amount
as an equal decline in another shop from 32 to 24 cents. An advance
of 16 cents, from 24 cents to 40 cents, in a third shop would exactly
counteract the two decreases of 8 cents each, leaving the relative
unchanged. The reason for this is obvious. The sum of the prices
in the base period, 35 cents+ 32 cents+ 24 cents = 91 cents, is exactly
the same as the sum of the prices following the fluctuations we have
assumed, viz, 27 cents+ 24 cents+ 40 cents = 91 cents. The aggregates being the same, the relative prices must be the same.
By the old method equal 'percentage changes in prices have equal
effects on the final relative price. In the example given above the
firm relatives following the price changes are 77, 75, and 167. The
simple arithmetic average of these relatives is 106. If the percentage
of increase had been exactly equal to the sum of the two percentages
of decrease, there would have been no change in the relative. For
example, if the firm relatives in the second period were 80, 75, and
145, respectively, the aggregate relative price would remain unchanged, because the average of the firm relative prices on this supposition is 100. On this assumption and to produce such relatives
the actual prices for the second period would have to be 28 cents, 24
cents, and 35 cents, respectively, which would give an aggregate
actual price of 87 cents, which sum divided by the aggregate actual
price in the base period, 91 cents, gives by this method a relative
price of 96 in the second month.
SHIFTING THE BASE PERIOD.
The method of computing relative prices employed from 1903 to

1911, inclusive, involved computing the relatives on the preceding
year as the base, and afterwards shifting to the 1890-1899 base by
multiplying by the relative for the preceding year computed on the
1890-1899 base. Since January, 1912, relatives have been computed for each month on the preceding month as the base, the relative
EXPLANATION OF METHOD OF COMPUTING RETAIL PEICES. 3 6 7
for each month being shifted as above described to the 1890-1899

base. The base period of a relative price or index number built up
from averages of relative prices can not be shifted from one base to
another in this way without involving an amount of error which is
greatest when prices differ most in the base period and change most
capriciously from time to time. To show the possible inaccuracies
involved in shifting the base period of a relative price constructed
from averages of relatives and also to show that no inaccuracy results
from such shifting of base in the case of a relative price constructed
by comparing the aggregate actual prices, the following examples
are given:

The prices given in the first of the above examples are for round
steak reported by the 6 identical firms reporting from one city for
the months of May, June, and July. The relative prices for May and
June are computed as follows: May is taken as the base period of May
prices, being expressed, therefore, as 100. The June relative price of
each firm is expressed as a percentage of the May price of the same firm.
The relative price for the city given at the bottom of the fifth column
is obtained by dividing the aggregate actual price in June, $1.42, by
$1 42
the aggregate actual price in May, $1.40, giving ' , or 101.43 as
the relative price for the city for June computed on the May base.
The city relative price given just above in the fifth column is obtained by dividing the sum of the 6 firm relative prices by the number of firms, which gives 101.61 as the relative price for the city computed by the method of averaging firm relative prices. There is a
difference in these relatives, as noted above, of 0.18 points.
The July relatives, following the former practice of the Bureau in
computing relative prices, were first constructed on the preceding
month as a base. Calling each June price 100, and expressing the July
prices as percentages of the June prices gives the relative prices in
column 8. The combined city relative at the bottom of column 8 is
the quotient of the July aggregate actual price, $1.49, divided by
the June aggregate actual price, $1.42, which gives a July relative
computed on the June base of 104.93. The aggregate relative for the
city, 105.24, given just above in the same column, is the arithmetic
average of the firm relatives in that column, obtained by dividing the
total by the number of firms. These two relatives for July on the
June base, computed by the two methods, thus differ by 0.31 points.
In column 9 are given the firm relative prices for July on May as
the base, computed by calculating the July prices directly as percentages of the May prices. Immediately below the city aggregates
in column 9 is given the arithmetic average of the firm relatives in
the column, 106.62/ which is the city relative for July on the May
base, computed directly by the method of averaging firm relative
prices. As has already been explained (p. 358), this method of computation has not been followed by the Bureau because of the changes
in firms and in the quality of some of the articles reported. To shift
the July relative price for the city to the May base, the relative price
for July calculated on the June base is multiplied by the June relative
price calculated on the May base. This gives 105.24 X 101.61 = 106.93,
the city relative price for July calculated on the May base, by the
methods employed by the Bureau since 1903. The relative price obtained by this method, 106.93,isgreaterby0.31 points than the relative
price, 106.62, obtained by averaging the July relative prices calculated
directly on the May base, although both relatives are calculated by
EXPLANATION OF METHOD OF COMPUTING RETAIL PRICES. 3 6 9
averaging relative prices, and this divergence falls within a period of

only three months. The city relative for potatoes for the same
period, calculated by the new method, viz, 127.56, differs remarkably from both the relatives constructed by averaging individual
firm relatives.
If prices of potatoes, with their violent fluctuations, are taken instead of prices of round steak, to show the differing results obtained
by shifting the base period of relative prices computed by the old and
new methods, startling differences are found, the city relative for
July on the May base by the old method being 153.30, or greater by
6.65 points than the relative 146.65 obtained by averaging the July
relative prices calculated directly on the May base.
Relative prices computed by comparing aggregate actual prices can
be constructed month by month and shifted to any desired base
period, year or month, with mathematical accuracy so long as the
actual price quotations come from identical firms throughout the period
considered. This is readily shown by the following formulse:

relative price on the May base, which is exactly the same result as
would be obtained by dividing the July aggregate in the first instance
by the May aggregate. Even with changing firms and commodities
varying in quality, the relative prices calculated by comparing actual
prices may be shifted to any desired base by the method illustrated
above with the closest possible approach to absolute accuracy. This
is further explained below, page 371. Shiftability is an indispensable
quality in a relative price which must be built up by computing the
relative for each month with the preceding month as the base and
then shifting the resulting relative price to the selected base period
by multiplying through by the relative price for the preceding month
computed on the selected base period. If there were no other reason
for changing the method of computation, this alone would seem to
make the proposed change in method imperative.
There is another highly important reason why relative prices and
index numbers should be so constructed as to allow of shifting to any
base. People are curious to know the percentage of price change
from 1912 to 1913, or from 1907 to 1913, or for some other recent period of time. Few are interested to know by how large a per cent the
58294Bull. 15615

24
370
prices of 1913 exceed the prices of a period as remote as 1890-1899.

It is impossible by means of the old series of relative prices and index
numbers, when computed from relatives in the manner described, to
calculate accurately the percentage change in prices from 1912 to
1913. For example, from Bulletin No. 140, page 16, we learn that
the relative prices of round steak were 174.3 and 199.5, respectively,
for 1912 and 1913. Nobody can from these figures calculate the exact
percentage of change in the prices of round steak from 1912 to 1913.
The severest critics of the Bureau's price statistics almost invariably
calculate the percentage of change by the short and simple process
of subtraction, contenting themselves with the misinformation that
the price of round steak rose 25.2 per cent from 1912 to 1913. A
more "scientific" method employed is to divide both relative prices
through by the 1912 relative, 174.3, thereby going through the motions
of shifting the base period to 1912, and obtaining 100 and 114.5 as
the relative prices of round steak for 1912 and 1913, respectively,
computed on the 1912 price as the base. The Bureau has resorted to
this method in preceding bulletins to construct tables to show the
percentage changes from year to year. The results are inaccurate
when the relatives are averages of relatives and the amount of error
can be ascertained only by going back to the original actual prices
and reconstructing the relative prices anew on the 1912 base.
In the case of articles where the price, fluctuations from month to
month are narrow the amount of error would be quite small but
would tend to increase as the relative prices represented longer periods
of time. In the case of articles where price fluctuations are wide and
at times capricious the amount of error would at times be large.
Tins may be seen by a brief consideration of Table F.
Using the prices of round steak as an example, the relative price
for June on the May base, computed by averaging relative prices, is
101.61. This number is supposed to give the percentage relation that June prices bear to May prices. It is desired to find
the percentage relation of May prices to June prices. Using the
method of shifting the base by dividing by the relative price of
the period to be used as the new base, we have the following
, May relative on May base = 100

, -,
, .
formula: j ^ ^ t i v e o n M a y b a s e = 1 0 L 6 1 = 98.42, the May relative
on the June base. But when we calculate the relative prices for each
firm for May with June prices as the base and average the May firm
relatives, we get 98.94, as shown in the table below. I t will be seen
that the city relative price, computed from the original price quotations by the method of calculating relative prices for May on the June
base and then striking the average of these relatives, is 0.52 points
greater than the relative price obtained by shifting the base as
explained above.
If the prices of potatoes, as given in Table F p. 367, be taken as

an example, an attempt to shift the base by the method explained
above results in striking differences. The May relative on the June
base ( , K-. QQ ) is 66.10, but when we calculate the relative prices for
each firm for May with June prices as the base and average the May
firm relatives, we get 76.33, as shown in the table below, a difference
of more than 10 points in the results obtained by the two methods.

It must not be forgotten that the figures used in these illustrations

are actual prices returned to the Bureau by all the identical dealers
reporting from one city. This is not an imaginary example, set forth
for the purpose of showing a theoretical possibility that contains no
element of probability. The example in which the prices of potatoes
are used is extreme, but such capricious fluctuations are repeated
each year for potatoes and to a certain extent for eggs and such commodities as are subject to violent price changes. Potato prices are
used as an example to show typical price changes in a commodity
that fluctuates capriciously in price, as the prices of round steak are
used to illustrate typical price changes in commodities that fluctuate
rather narrowly.
The relative prices computed from aggregate actual prices can
be shifted at will to any base without error. This is evident when
we consider the nature of such a relative price. The June relative
$1 42
price of round steak computed on the May price as 100 is ^ *
Shifting this series to the June base by dividing by the June relative price gives the following: May relative price l^Vo, June relative
price 100. Individual commodity relative prices can thus bo shifted
372
to the base price of any period desired without error, because the
relative prices are simple ratios of aggregate actual prices. Dividing
by the relative price of any year or period merely has the effect of
substituting the aggregate actual price for the base period as divisor
in the formula for computing the relative price.
By the old method of computation any errors which may have
existed in price data in the base period 1890-1899 would affect the
series of relatives throughout the entire period covered. Errors were
introduced by means of the method of averaging relatives calculated
from different prices as bases, and these errors were cumulated by
the process of shifting the base of the relative prices every month.
These inaccuracies taken with the inflexibility of relative prices and
indexes calculated by averaging relatives made the changes in methods
of calculation which have^been carried out imperatively necessary.
THE NEW BASE PERIOD.
Having decided to change the method of computing relative prices

and index numbers from the method of averaging relatives to what
may be called the method of relating aggregate actual prices, it
became necessary to decide upon the base period or year to which
all price computations are to be referred. The old base period
1890-1899 was out of the question for the following reasons:
First, it is impossible at this time to recompute the relative prices
back to 1890 because of the enormous amount of labor involved.
Second, it is inadvisable to use the price quotations of such a remote period as the basis for the calculation of relative prices to-day.
The price data become more doubtful the farther back we go. When
the cost-of-living investigation was made in 1901, it was necessary
to take such records as could be found. Many of the more representative firms and dealers had destroyed their records, consequently,
the figures for the earlier years were sometimes less representative
than those for later years. Any errors or shortcomings that may occur
in the price statistics for the fixed base period, 1890-1899, are bound
to be perpetuated throughout the whole series of index numbers.
It seems inadvisable to base relative prices and index numbers permanently upon the least trustworthy foundation.
Third, relative prices are most frequently used to compare price
changes in the more recent years. People generally want to know how
prices this year compare with last year's prices. They are not so
much interested in the percentage change in prices in 1914 compared
with the average prices prevailing during a period as remote as
1890-1899.
Fourth, it is greatly to be desired that the list of articles at retail
should be extended if possible to include some standard kinds of

clothing materials and a larger list of foodstuffs. It will be absolutely

impossible to get actual price quotations running back to 1890.
An endeavor is now being made by the Bureau to add cheese,
rice, dry beans, coffee, tea, canned corn, canned peas, canned tomatoes, canned salmon, onions, prunes, raisins, oranges, woolen flannel,
cotton flannel, calico, gingham, percale, muslins, sheetings, readymade sheets, cotton blankets, and shoes to the list of commodities
carried in its bulletins on retail prices. If the old base were retained, none of these articles could ever justifiably be included in the
price relatives and index numbers. Even tea, coffee, cheese, prunes,
and the other articles which were included in the list of commodities
carried down to the end of 1907 probably could not be reincorporated
in the price indexes, because it would be impossible to secure prices
of the same grades even approximately for the period running back
to 1907.
Lastly, for purposes of international comparisons, the base
1890-1899 is impossible. Statistics are being used more and more to
compare wage levels and price levels in different countries. Some
foreign countries are just beginning to gather statistics of wages and
prices. Heretofore, no accurate comparison of such statistics with
the statistics for the United States was possible, because most foreign
countries had no price data for the base period 1890-1899 and to
shift the base of the old relatives and indexes to a year corresponding
with that used in foreign price indexes would involve an error the
extent of which can not be estimated. Even with relative prices
that can be shifted without error, it is advantageous to choose the
last completed year as the base in order to facilitate comparisons
with countries that from time to time take up the work of gathering
and publishing wage and price statistics, but publish figures extending
back only a year or two.
For the reasons given above it was decided to adopt the last completed year as the base year for the computations of relative prices
and price indexes in future. In this bulletin prices in 1913 are taken
as the base and are represented by 100.
THE NEW METHOD OF COMPUTING RELATIVE PRICES.
The year 1913 was chosen as the base year in which all prices were
to be represented as 100, but no aggregate or average actual prices
for the year 1913 were in existence to be represented by 100. If all
firms reported every month throughout the year, the aggregate actual
price of each commodity could be calculated for each month and
these monthly aggregates added together and the total divided by
12 in order to obtain an average aggregate actual price for the year
for each commodity. Any aggregate actual price can be converted,
if desired, into an average price by dividing by the number of firms.
374
BULLETIN OF THE BUBEATJ OF LABOR STATISTICS.
It was decided, however, to use price aggregates for all computations

where possible to avoid unnecessary and tedious labor and possible
errors arising from repeated divisions and dropped decimals.
As there were in existence no aggregate actual prices for 1913 to
be used as the base prices in the calculation of relative prices for
other years and the months of each year, and as yearly average
aggregate actual prices could not be computed by averaging the
monthly aggregate actual prices, because the firms reporting were
not identical firms throughout the year, it was necessary to start
with the aggregate actual price for some one month. Obviously,
January, 1913, was the most convenient month to take as the tentative base period. The procedure followed is most clearly explained
by an example.
In the North Atlantic division 89 identical firms reported prices for
granulated sugar in both January and February, 1913. These February prices coming from the same identical firms are fairly comparable with the January prices. The aggregate of the actual prices
quoted by the 89 stores for January was $4.9502. The aggregate for
February for the same 89 stores was $4.6770. Dividing the February
aggregate by the January aggregate, we obtain - ' 6 == 94.48, which
is the February relative price referred to the January price as
the base, or 100. It will be observed that a price change of 1 cent
reported by store A has an equal effect on the relative price as an
equal price change reported by store B, although store B may sell
50 per cent more sugar than store A. It is, of course, impossible to
get any facts as to the amount of any commodity sold by any store
in any month. It would enormously increase the labor of collecting
and computing price statistics if the quantities sold by each store
could be ascertained and used to weight the prices reported, and the
slight influence upon the relative prices would not justify the added
expenditure of time, effort, and money.
It was found that 86 identical firms reported prices of granulated
sugar in the months of February and March. The aggregate actual
prices were $4.5194 and $4.4629, respectively. Dividing the March
aggregate by the February aggregate gives - . '
=98.75 as the
March relative price calculated on the February aggregate actual
price as the base. Multiplying this relative, 98.75, by the February
relative referred to the January base, 94.48, gives 93.3 as the March
relative on the January base. This process of calculating from the
aggregate actual prices the relative for each month on the preceding
month as the base and then multiplying the resultant relative price
by the relative price for the preceding month on the January base, is
repeated until relative prices have been obtained for the 12 months

It is submitted that the relative prices obtained by the method
above described picture price changes with the greatest possible accuracy. Of course, if the same identical firms had been represented
throughout the year, the December relative on a January base could
have been obtained, as explained above, by dividing the December
aggregate by the January aggregate directly. That being impossible
because of the changes in the number and identity of firms, the
nearest approach to that simple result is obtained by the operations
explained above. The relatives thus obtained for sugar on the January base for the 12 months were: January, 100; February, 94.5;
March, 93.3; April, 92.4; May, 92.2; June, 91.6; July, 94.0; August,
96.2; September, 97.6; October, 94.8; November, 93.9; and December, 93.4.
The next step was to add the 12 monthly relatives together and
divide by 12 to obtain the average relative price for the year 1913
on the January base. It is perfectly proper to calculate the relative
for the year by averaging these monthly relatives, because the relatives are all calculated on the same base price, viz, the aggregate of
actual prices of sugar reported by 89 stores in January. An average
of relative prices all of which are constructed on the identical base
contains no element of error. The relative price of sugar for the
year was found to be 94.5, January being 100.0.

376
Next these relative prices for each of the 12 months of the year and
for the year 1913 were shifted from the January base to the 1913 year
base by dividing each of these 13 different relative prices through by
the 1913 relative price of sugar, 94.5. This shift of base can be
effected without error, as has been explained above, page 369, so long
as we are dealing with relative prices made from actual prices. The
resulting series of relative prices of granulated sugar on the 1913 base
are: January, 105.8; February, 100; March, 98.7; April, 97.8; May,
97.5; June, 96.9; July, 99.5; August, 101.8; September, 103.3; October, 100.3; November, 99.3; December, 98.8.
Having thus established a relation between the aggregate actual
price for the entire year 1913 and the aggregate actual price for January, 1913, the next step was to calculate the relative price for December, 1912, on the January, 1913, base. The aggregate actual
prices reported by 84 identical firms were $4.6932 and $4.8139,
respectively, for January, 1913,' and December, 1912. The relative
for December on the January, 1913, base, 102.57, multiplied by the
January relative price on the year 1913 base, 105.8, gives 108.5, the
December, 1912, relative on the 1913 base. These processes were
repeated, going back each month, until relative prices were obtained
for each commodity for each geographical division and for the
United States for each month of the years 1911-1913, inclusive, for
every second month of the years 1907-1910, inclusive, and for all the
years 1907-1913, inclusive. The relative price of a commodity for a
year was arrived at by taking the arithmetic average of the relative
prices for the 12 months of the year.
THE NEW COMBINED RELATIVES OR INDEX NUMBERS.
The construction of an index number by the new method of comparing actual price aggregates presents new difficulties. To form an
index number which will register the change in prices of all commodities taken together, it is not feasible to combine the aggregate
actual prices of the commodities because the firms reporting prices of
eggs in May, 1907, might differ considerably in number from the firms
reporting prices of milk in the same division for the same month.
In the North Atlantic division the aggregate actual price of sirloin
steak for January, 1913, reported by 80 firms, was $22.88, while the
aggregate actual price of sugar for the same month reported by 89
firms was $4.9502. To combine these aggregate prices would be
absurd. To weight each by a quantity representing its importance
in consumption and then to add these weighted prices would produce
a meaningless quantity because the aggregate price of sugar is disproportionately large by reason of the fact that the number of quotations of sugar exceeds the number of quotations of sirloin steak.

EXPLANATION OF METHOD OF COMPUTING EETAIL PEICES. 3 7 7
In order to combine prices of different commodities fairly they

must be average prices, or at least aggregates made up of an equal
number of quotations in every case. To avoid the absurdity of adding price aggregates made up of varying numbers of quotations, the
method described below was followed.
The aggregate actual price of granulated sugar in January, 1913,
for the North Atlantic division ($4.9502) was multiplied successively
by the relative prices of granulated sugar on the January base for
each month of the year 1913. A series of monthly price aggregates
was thus built up on the assumption that the 89 stores reporting
in January had continued to report throughout the year. The arithmetic average of these aggregates for the 12 months of 1913 was taken
as the average aggregate actual price for the year 1913. This average
aggregate price ($4.6779) for 1913 was divided by 89, the number of
firms reporting in January and the number assumed as reporting
throughout the year, to obtain the average actual price of granulated
sugar (5.26 cents) for the year 1913. This computed average actual
price of granulated sugar in 1913 was next multiplied by the amount
of sugar consumed in the North Atlantic division in 1901, according
to the Eighteenth, Annual Report of the Commissioner of Labor. This
formula $0.0526X283 lbs. = $14.89 gives the cost of the amount of
sugar consumed by the average workman's family in 1901, purchased
at the average price obtaining in 1913. In like manner the cost in
1913 of all other commodities at retail was computed by calculating
first the average price of each commodity for 1913 and then multiplying this average price by the quantity consumed in 1901. The
table of quantities consumed in the United States and each of its
divisions based on the figures for 1901 is given below:

beef appearing in the workman's family budget for 1901 has been
divided equally between the three kinds of fresh beefsirloin steak,
round steak, and rib roastwhile the salt hog products have
been divided equally between bacon and ham. To separate flour
from corn meal, it has been assumed that the consumption of flour

The total cost in 1913 in the North Atlantic division of the 15 commodities included in the food budget was $333.90, which sum was
obtained by adding together the cost of the several commodities purchased in the quantities consumed in 1901, at the average prices paid
in 1913. The cost in the North Atlantic division of each of the 15
items of the family food budget having been found for 1913, the cost
for any month or any other year was calculated as follows: The cost
of 283 pounds of granulated sugar at the 1913 price was $14.89. The
relative price of granulated sugar for January, 1912, calculated on
the 1913 base, as explained on page 376, was found to be 122.6. Multiplying $14.89 by 122.6 gives $18.26, the cost of 283 pounds of
granulated sugar at the average price in January, 1912. Each item
in the food budget was treated in this way until the cost of each of
the 15 items at January, 1912, prices was found. The total cost of
the food budget for January, 1912, was found to be $328.52. This

sum divided by the cost of the same budget at 1913 prices gives
the relative cost in January, 1912, of the budget, calculated on the
cost in 1913 as the base, viz, .' ,. =98.4.
Eelative cost of the
same unvarying food budget was thus computed for each of the 12
months of the year 1912. The average of these monthly relatives
was taken as the relative for the year 1912, viz, 97.2.
The averaging of the monthly indexes to obtain the index for the
year involves no error in this instance, because the several monthly
indexes are all built up on the same base, viz, the expenditure for the
food budget in 1913. That the relative or index number, 97.2, does
express as accurately as possible the relation of the cost of the food
budget in 1912 to the cost of the same food budget in 1913, may be
shown by computing the 1912 index directly from the aggregate
expenditures.

380
BULLETIN OF THE BXJEEAU OF LABOR STATISTICS;
First, the aggregate expenditures for the 12 months may be added

giving a total of $3,894.67 which divided by 12 gives an average expenditure for the food budget for the year of $324.56. This divided
by $333.90, the expenditure for the food budget in 1913, gives 97.2
as the index for 1912 on the 1913 base, the same as obtained by
averaging the monthly indexes.
Again, take the average expenditure for each commodity in 1913,
multiply each sum by the relative price of that commodity in 1912
on the 1913 base as shown in the following table:

The products given in the last column represent the expenditure

for each commodity at the 1912 average prices. Summing these we
get $324.23 which represents the total expenditure for the food
budget in 1912, worked by this method. This is 33 cents less than the
sum obtained by striking the arithmetic average of 12 monthly aggregates of expenditure for the food budget, which makes the index
number 97.1 instead of 97.2. This insignificant difference is accounted
for by dropped decimals.
