Imagine buying that acre of land you have spotted for $1.25! Or, even at the higher price of $10. Those are the prices offered to our founding fathers to encourage set- tlement of the wilderness areas of this nation. A stage wasn't the most comfortable way to go, but you could get from city to city for as little as $3 — at the amazing pace of six miles per hour. Compare today's wages with a 12-hour day in the early 1800's. A man earned 50c a day. Of course his dollar bought a little more than today's. Butter in 1826 was about 5 t lb. in the Midwest; eggs, 3c doz.; corn 6c bu., wheat, 25c bu.; and a cow could be bought for $5. With travel becoming the American tradi- tion, you could choose train, wagon, horseback or the water. A canal ride, with bed and board included, averaged 3 or 4c per mile. And when you reached your des- tination, you could sit down to a 5, or even 10 course meal for 25c. (Ladies 20c. in consideration of appetite.) Farmers in the early 1800's could own the famous McCormick Reaper for a mere $100. But the Civil War increased prices as the machine became the first item farmers could buy on time payments for the sum of $1,500. A good suit of clothes then might cost $1.95 and ladies waists (blouses) were marketed for 49c to $3.50 with a whole dress pattern priced at 15c. Cookstoves. quality-satisfaction guaran- teed,'' could cost you $29.25 at $4 per month and a dandy heating stove could set you back as much as $5.73 and up. The first electric refrigerator cost $900 — which might be enough to make you faint on your 1907 fainting couch that had cost a mere S7.85. Your new baby travelled in the height of fashion in a wicker sleeping coach (stroll- er) for the sum of $12.04. If you had $1,500 in 1903 you could show off in one of the first automobiles. Ah, those were the days. Some of the cur- rent prices are reminiscent of those days, but at frontier prices, which were a whole different story. Hardy pioneers had to pay $2 a pound for sugar, too. And the same for a pound of coffee or pepper. Those items were only 15C per pound back in civ- ilized St. Louis. Flour was marked up 100 times for sale to the frontiersmen and dur- ing the famous Gold Rush, that precious commodity went for S400 a barrel. FOR NSW TORS.
