i * I i I t I Cost of Living in Taihape. | What Mr Malcolm Fraser Says. ! s I a Mr Malsolm Fraser is the Government Statistician. He brings out monthly figures concerning Births, Deaths, and Marriages, Criminal Prosecutions, Cost of Living, Imports and Exports, Mining, and a host of other subjects. Bead this concerning Taihape: — SINCE JULY 31st 1914 Taihape Meat Prices have increased by 51.58 per cent. Groceries have only increased by 16,31 per cent. But, taken all round, Taihape is second highest in cost of living in a list of 25 towns. However, these figures show that it is not because of grocery prices; indeed Taihape owns to the LOWEST grocery pricc-inc.rcase, with the exception of Hew Plymouth,: which is IC.OI per cent. How in seeking the reason for this low increase in Grocery prices, we say, and with due modesty, that it can be attributed to BENNETT'S CASH TRADING POLICY Our plan of buying and selling for. Cash, and cutting out the old-time wasteful credit system has cot Grocery prices down and down. Those statistics PROVE IT! Think of Wellington with 31.5 G per cent, increase; Gisborne with 29.84 per cent.; ‘Ashburton with qo per cent.; Mastorton cent. —are you not ter by the money savings ing CASH at BEHNE r CAN WE HfiPE ORDER ivith 27.57 per iptod to profit ted by pav'T !
