Some merchants are likely to be carried away by the fact that there is every probability of an increased output of dairy produce and wool values are likely to he steady, hut it would never do to base opinion entirely on these possibilities. The fall in produce prices began with the return to the gold standard, which is equivalent to saving when deflation commenced This deflation is still in progress, and commodity prices must conform to the new values: The tendency of all commodity prices is steadily downwards. Manv business people are carried awav in the fluctuations, as when prices advance they believe they have come t ■ staV and the wish becomes the parent of the thought.
