COMPARISON The comparative high cost of living during the time of the Civil War 1 and the late World War. . | (By A...C Gile) There seems to be a difference of opinioo of many people on the subject. The- writer of this article has seen and read from an old-time retail grocer book, the cost of many, f of the' necessities of life purchase*.' and 'sold -during the year of 1863 and 64. The cause of this price soaring in a measure can -be accounted for. During the first year of the Civil "War, our Government formed a blockade of war ships on the water tf> prevent runners coming into our ports, loadr ing supplies for. the confederates of ) j food, guns, ammunition, jetc. The . I northern states were also deprived of ; • j cotton and mar.;- ether sjuthcrn plo- j . i ducts and the result was that the | .'.prices soared so high that the ordi- • nary commodities of life became al-l ■ I most prohibitory among the poor. } ■ ; The following retail prices in 1863 . 64 aie given: Flour §10 and $11.25 a I • baud; sugar, 10 and 12c a pound; '• . best grade 14c; butter, 40 to -ICi- lb : ; fresh beef, 16 l-2c lb-; wggs, 42c do/, i A ton of coal cost $8.50. Wearing j* , apparel, best grade muslin, 50c yd.: . calico, 15c to 25c yard; men's high boots, $6 to $8 pair- Coffee was not ! thought of, the substitutes were used. • roasted whea , oaks, also . •veet pot a , toes cut up small and rousted.- Chic- ! | Oi-v, a 'small bean was manilfa'ctured | into a substitute. ,un<!' sold as coffee • . essence . A decline fcegan to set in' . - about 1866. People in the southern state* fared I ; I far worse. Confederate money, com j • pared to our moifley late in 1864: aj gold' dollar equaled $27 to $28 in con-.l federate paper money, at the same time our gold dollar was wortlP$2.40 and at times $2.56., The people of the south paid enor-; mous prices' for goods. They paid j for a barrel of flour, $3fcjgo"; corn meal, $55.00 a bushel; bacon, $10 to $11 a lb.; coffee, .$12.00 1b.; sugar ; $8.50 to $12.00 lb. Clothing was al- [ most impossible to get at any priceTheir, soldiers had to wear clothes of all description. Many times our', "boys"- have seen ■ whole- confederate regiments fitted out in clothes mqile 'from what looked like bed quilts, old -blankets and their head gear was made of the same material. Their j officers were the only men that-had thejgray uniform, but what their lackj ed in uniform, they made uo In grit, i nerve and fighting. | Profiteering has been in -many ages j past.
