COST OF LIVING
DECLINE IN JULY. A decline in the prices of the three food groups is shown by the Government Statistician for the month ended July 15. The index number for the three food groups at that date was 1590, a decrease of 14 points as compared with that for June (1604), and an increase of 48-60 per cent, as compared with that for July, 1914. A fall of seven points in the groceries group was due mainly to a fall in the price of sugar in several towns. Considerable decreases in the prices of eggs in the various towns caused a decline of 48 points in the dairy products group, while meat prices were practically stationary in July
