SAN FRANCISCO, April THE vegetable mar

much depressed, owing to heavy receipts. The
same applies to old potatoes and onions.
The fruit market. with the exception of
slight improvement in oranges, was without
much change. The supply is plentiful, but the
quality is not all that could be desired. Apples
continue scarce and frmer. Strawberries are
arriving more freely, and prices are more mod

Dried fruit was quiet, and business without

The market for dairy produce was without
much change California eggs were in light

Butter is in large supply, and prices are shaded

The Durham daily globe. (Durham, N.C.) 1889-1894, 1892-05-31
As WE MOVE ALONG.

Towns on paper count for nothing.
What does count, however, is brick
and stone and wood and mortar when
fashioned into buildings.
And such business is being done in
Durham.
The lumber men say that they are
selling more lumber these days than ever
before.
An item to put in your hat A year
and q half aco. when THE GLOBE com
menced bowling boom in double leads,
there was but one lumber yard in Dur
ham.
Since that time that one lumber yard
has more than trebbled it's business-has
| enlarged and is still charging.
Six months later HOWELL & Co,
opened a lumber yard and HOWELL re-
ports the sale of over 200, 900 feet of lum-
Der last month. His business is growing
and dozens of enquiries for lumber are
made every week.
Two month ago another lumber yard
opened. It is doing a good business and
increasing its trade.
The b~rickyards have found it impossi-
bic at times to supply the demand for
brick and increased faculties-new ma
chimes, etc., have been added to the
FITZGERALD yards.
Apart from this unprecedented in
crease in the lumber business in this city,
many bills for houses have been pur-
chased outside of Durham-and the lum
Der shipped here.
Just these straws furnish conclusive
evidence that Durham is rapidly and
solidly growing.
Look in any direction and you will see
a new house going up-and what is
stranger still it is almost impossible tC
rent a dwelling in the town.
And the moral and the pointer is:
Pin your faith to Durham-buy Dur
ham dirt now, for if you do not, dirt viii
be higher pretty soon.
Durham is a winner-you can read i
in the stars and you car see it on the
ground.
Let all push the town along.
The Durham daily globe. (Durham, N.C.) 1889-1894, 1892-05-31
WONT YOU, PLEASE

1t does beat all how ambitious we all
are to see our names in print. The other
morning a sweet-faced little girl stopped
the old man on the road and said, won't
you please put me in the paper" The
girl could not have been over nine years
of age-but all the same she wanted 10 be
put in the paper. One of her companions
had gotten her name in the paper some
way--and there was a distinction.
And while we smile because the little
tot wanted TO be put in the paper-the
smile is out of place. Show Us a nan
no matter how old or how Young-and if
he is favorably mentioned in a newspa.
per he is not mad about it. On the con.
trary he would rather be in print than
not TO bc-aud the bottom of it all is
vanity.
And thus was it written of old that al
is vanity-and so it seems to-day.
OF course it is all right. No one is go
ing TO kick aid if there is a kick Vanity
will continue to whoop it up just the
same.
The Durham daily globe. (Durham, N.C.) 1889-1894, 1892-05-31

And why not? We get but little salts
faction out of this life, anyway; why not
devote some of it to looking at our names
in print If there were no type and no
presses-even then we would find the
scribes round printing jests with their
pens about how COLONEL SO-AND-So did
this and how MAJOR So-AND So did that.
And the crowd down in front of the
market place where the scribes would
read their rot would pronounce it good.
Men and women-boys and girls-all,
all sigh for distinction; they love to be
observed-they want the crowd in its
hurry to take notice of them.
And perhaps it is we'll.
