BOSTON PRODUCE MARKET


From Boston journal
Since our report of a week ago the butter
situation has been shaken up considerably,
with declining tendency at all leading
points. New York dropped Ia to 2 cents,
Chicago cent and Elgin half u cent. All
these places have been quoted higher than
Boston, and, while their change OF base has
tended to weaken the market here, it has not
caused much of decline, and our prices are
still low compared to their quotations.
But the break has destroyed confidence. and
buyers are disposed to hold of for further
developments. The accumulations OF last
weeks receipts are mot yet all cleaned up,
and, as the quality varies considerably, II Is
hard to tell what few days more will bring
forth. The prevailing opinion is that choice
fresh creamery is about as low as il will go
at present, and that the finest grades will
stiffen up again. The same opinion is ex.
pressed in regard TO best storage goods.
There was a wide range in asking prices
Yesterday, but few dealers could come down
to actual sales. The drop in other places had
led buyers to expect a corresponding decline
here, but when II was pointed out to them
that Boston's ruling rates were still low com.
pared with the outside quotations. and that
prices had not at any time been on par with
New York or the West, they became more
reconclled. A range for fresh made North
ern and Western creamery may be given at
% to % cents for fair to choice. 2S to "a cents
for choice to fancy and a higher rate for su
perlative quality with little new milk
flavor. Asa rule, the western creamery just
at present takes the highest value. because II

there are exceptions. 1t Is necessary TO thus

shippers consider their creamery as good as
the other fellows, and cannot understand
why they get only - or % cents for their but

The oleomargarine bills have been be-
fore the house committee at Washington
this week, and considerable evidence has
been sdduced going to show the health
fulness Of this product. AT first blush
this testimony seems to be wholly beside
the question, so far as the dairy interests
are concerned. The great and practically
the only question for such interests is
whether or not the oleo manufacturers
are to be permitted to sell their product
as pure butter. The healthfulness of
oleo isn't In question. If its makers can
convince butter consumers that it is a
good substitute and thereby secure a
market for it, that is legitimate compe-
tition. The oleo men know very well
that they cannot so convince consumers,
and resort to deception and fraud to
foist their article on the pure butter
market. That is what hurts the dairy
interests and where legislation is wanted.

MRS. FRANCELIA III. DAMON.

Franceia IL. MacQuivey was born in Rip
ton, VT, March p, 1854. and there grew to
womanhood. Her gentleness and nopleness
OF character endeared her to all who knew
her. In early life she gave her heart to the
Savior, united with the NJ. f. church, and
ever after lived consistent Christian life
In May, 1888, she was married to Melvin E
Damon.
In her later years it was her lot to suffer
much physically, and in the last few week.
she endured intense pain with much forti
tude, and such an implicit trust in her Savior
as only true diciple of Jesus can show.
The end came peacefully on JAMS, 1902.
Asleep in Jesus blessed sleep,
From which none wake to weep.
she leaves husband daughter and large
circle OF friends to mourn their loss. Their
loss is her gain.

The disaster in the Park avenue tunnel
in New York city last week, whereby
fifteen persons met immediate death and
two since have died in hospitals, might
we'll be designated as criminal lack of
foresight on the part of the railway CON-
pany. Only few months ago the citi-
zens and newspapers of the metropolis
were agitating the subject of forcing the
New York Central company to intro
duce electric locomotives for hauling
trains through this tunnel, and the rail-
way company's defense was that it
would cost too much. What the neglect
has cost is seventeen human lives and in
jures to over forty persons; and the re-
moval by the New York legislature a
few years ago of the $4,000 limit COL
lectible on the loss of life, leaves the
railway open to suits aggregating hun
dreds of thousands of dollars.

1t appears that Captain Clark and not
Admiral Dewey is to represent the Amer
lean navy at the coronation ceremonies
of King Edward next June. The position
is honored by the man in this instance.
Captain Clark ! is one of the few con-
spcuous figures in the late Spanish war
with whose name no scandal of any
kind has been connected, and being a
true Vermonter he cannot fail to uphold
the highest traditions of this govern
ment on an occasion so full of mockery

No Word For Love.

In comparison with the English
tongue foreign tongues seem parsimo-
NOUS in some ways of expression and
wasteful in others.
For instance, it is impossible to kick"
a man in French. You must give him
.blow with the foot" The Portu-
guese do not wink" at one; they "close
and open the eyes"
In the languages of the American In
dams there is no word with which to
convey the idea Of stealing" perhaps
because the Idea of property Is so
vague. 1t is related Of one of the early
missionaries that In attempting to
translate the Bible into Algonquin he
could find no word to express love"
and was compelled to invent 1t.

The PERuNA ALMANAC.

The druggists have already been sup
piled with Peruna almanacs. There is
sure to be a great demand for these
almanacs on account of the articles on
astrology which they contain. The sub
ject of astrology Is very attractive one
to most people. The articles on astrology
In the Feruna almanac have been furnish
ed by a very competent astrologist, and
the mental characteristics of each sign Ii
given, constituting almost complete
horoscope. A list of lucky and unlucky
days for each month are given. There will
be a great rush for these books. Ask your
druggist for one early before they are all
gone.

FRIDAY, JANUARY II, 1902.
THE VILLAGE MEETING.

The outcome of the village meeting, we
believe, is substantially satisfactory to
all for it is on the lines of economy,
and it is very evident that our voters
were fully aroused to the necessity, at
this,time, of directing our principsl ener-
giles to the reduction of our debt. They
feel, and we believe correctly, that the
question Of good water with minimum
expense is practically settled; and in
their satisfaction with so great benefit
are very willing to economic on other
things for the present, or until we have
made a practical reduction of our debt.
For instance, we can get along for year
by keeping our present roads and walks in
good repair, without building much new !;
and thus and otherwise economic in the
expenses so as to show, with the income
coming In, substantial reduction In the
village debt; which we all recognize as
larger than it ought to be.
In all such matters start In the right
direction is the important thing; for, as
the old proverb has it, work we'll begun
is half done.
But here it is most evident to US all
that one of the greatest items Of saving
should come, and come at once, from our
new sy stem of water supply. For, as we
understand, it can be arranged at once
70 get our water supply from the new
system. Possibly the supply for the
marble mill may have to be secured for
while longer by the pump which was
procured for that purpose, but we think
that the water commissioners will have
no serious difficulty in arranging at once
that all other needed water for the village
should come from the new system, and
thus save large amount of expense con-
nected with running the old system.
There was some merriment at the eX-
pense of Mr. Battell, who in nominating
Mr.. Boyce for water commissioner in the
gested that the nomination occurred to
him at the moment; and then, a ballot
being called for, produced votes for Mr..
Boyce. There was here an apparent
discrepancy of conditions, but it was
only apparent, for the votes produced
were not printed for Mr.. Boyce as
candidate for commissioner to supply the
place of Mr. Benedict, resigned, but as a
candidate for water commissioner for the
full term. Mr.. Bate II understood that
Mr.. Benedict would not insist upon his
resignation; but, when he did, used Mr.
Boyce's name as candidate to fill the
vacancy, and at a moments thought, as
suggested; and then, when ballot was
called for, used the votes designed fol
another purpose. We believe that every
body is agreed that Mr.. Boyce will make
an excellent water commissioner. And
in connection, the REGISTER will express
hope that he will furnish for next
week a brief statement of present condi
lions of the new system, and how soor
we may hope that they will be entirely
finished.

ITS COMING.

Yes sir-ree, the time is coming when coffee is the only healthful and whole some drink that should be allowed in- side your home. They say the law this year doesn't allow intoxicating drinks to be sold within 200 feet of church, public buildings, cemeteries, libraries, etc, and they also say that next year the wine dispensers cannot get i- cense to sell intoxicants within 5000 feet of anywhere in Connecticut That's the time that good tea and cof- fee (the kind we selD can and will be highly appreciated by everyone. Say, the lawmakers up in Hartford are 'coo-coos." Remember, we have been talking about sleeve ironing boards for two weeks and we are almost sure they'll be all gone before the end of this week. We will continue to give one with each pound of our warranted good tea, 30 cents per pound, while they last. Our Butter is the same good quality as usual and the price is the same as last week, 2J cents per pound. Those jardiniere stands, twenty nine inch tables, clothes racks or plates which we are giving with one pound of our Baking Powder are certainly bar gain at
 Phelan's T Store.
