Swapping things—as when
our grandmothers  Traded eggs for calico at the crossroads store — gives a better understanding of values. By measuring one thing against another, we too can often judge values more clearly. Coal and wages make up more than half the manufacturing cost of cement. The chart above shows price fluctuations for pordand cement, coal, and wages during the past ten years. In each case, 100 is used to represent 1913 figures, by the Government departments which compiled these statistics. Translated into "eggs and calico" language, this chart shows that a ton of coal would buy nearly twice as much cement in 1922 as in 1913. A day's wages also would buy more cement in 1922 than in 1913.
