Sugar 66 cents in 1974, 9 cents now. Coffee $3.37 in 1977, $1.05 now. Soybeans almost $13.00 in 1973, $7.50 now.

Cocoa almost 5000 in 1977, 1900 now.

Cotton in the 90 cent area in 1973, 1976, 1980, 1981, 1990, 1991, but 48 cents now.

Lumber was over $500 (per thousand board feet) in the early 1990s, now under $250 (despite the "housing boom").
