THE LOCAL MARKETS
POTATOES AND TOMATOES AID
VANCE IN PRICE.
Peaches and Canta1oupes in Demand
Game Supply short-Fish
Not Plentiful.

Potatoes and tomatoes, two vegetables
that are In great demand, are higher this
week than they have been in long time.
The former jumped from s1.25 and $1.50 to q
barrel yesterday, while tomatoes went as
high as 81 box. A local dealer told Star
reporter this morning that he was unable
to get any tomatoes for his trade for less
than $1.75 box, and unless there is de-
cided increase in supply during the next
few days the price will go still higher.
Lettuce is coming unusually fine. and fine
headed stock that usually brings from 10 to
20 cents at this season is selling at cents.
There is good second crop of string beans
and they are correspondingly cheap. selling
at 30 cents a peck. Other vegetables are
plentiful and cheap.
Peaches and canteloupes are leading the
fruit market, and the demand for them will
continue as long as the supply lasts. The
canteloupes are from Colorado and are as
fine as ever reached the local market. They
are to be had at from 8 to 20 cents each.
While peaches are not cheap. they are quot
ed at lower rates than the local dealers had
anticipated. Western Maryland growers are
furnishing most of the stock for the local
market. They would have been much more
plentiful had 1t not been for the late rains
damaging them before they could be picked.
The price depends entirely upon the quality
of the fruit. Grapes from California are
pientlIul To-Day AND IN good condition, bring
Ing 10 cents pound. Apples are plentiful
and are to be had as low as 81 a barrel for
ordinary stock.
The Game Supply.
Reedbirds and ortolan are In demand but
the supply is short. The former are selling
at rs cents a dozen and the latter are bring
ing 81. Dealers are unable to get enough
birds to supply the demand at these prices.
The game supply Will be better when there
Is a decided change In the weather. Wild
ducks will then make their appearance in
this section and gunners will have sport and
be able to furnish stock to the dealers.
There are no woodcock or snipe in market.
Some few birds are being killed, but they
are not reaching the market. There has
been practically no change In the price of
chickens since last week. They are no
cheaper, and dealers do not except they will
be any cheaper in the near future.
Butchers are not as busy they usually
are at this season, the continued warm
weather having depressing effect upon the
meat market. Hams and bacon are no
cheaper than they have been for several
weeks, but other meats are cheap. rs.
Fish are not unusually plentiful. but local
dealers are able to get supplies enough Tor
their trade. Soft crabs are still to be had
at reasonable prices, but the season for
them will close soon. No change in the but
ter market Is noted. Eggs are selling at
from % to 80 cents, with a tendency toward
an easy market

Big Packer ADVISES Sugar Beet Hog

Big Packer Advises Sugar Beet Hog
And now it's the sugar beet hog.
Nelson Morris, the millionaire Chi
cago packer, in Denver few days
ago declared that hogs fed on sugar
beets made the very finest kind of
meat. He also declared that Ne
braska, Colorado and Wyoming,
where the cultivation of sugar beets
is undertaken on large scale, might
profitsbly turn to this new industry.
Because of the prevailing system
of freight rates the sugar beet hog
can enter into successful competi-
tion in the markets of the country
with his corn fed brother from Iowa
and states east There should be a
large and growing business in this
new industry.
Mr.. Morris declared that there
we're three great forms of food for
hogs which made their flesh firm,
and developed them in every way
into valuable animals for the block.
These he said were alfalfa, sugar
beets and field peas. In his opinion
beets were far the most valuable as
food.
This state has an ever growing
acreage of sugar beets, and enjoying
transportation facilities which per-
NIT easy and equitable access to the
big consuming centers it easily
might enthroned the hog as one of
it's chief sources of wealth. MIR.

Colorado Opportunities.

The rush that ensues whenever an
Indian reservation is thrown open to
settlement shows how strong is the
land hunger in the hearts of The
American people.
Yet it is a fact beyond dispute
that the opportunities that are open
in the agricultural districts of Colo
RADIO are far more favorable than
those that may be found in more re-
mote and less developed sections of
the country.
The man that has energy, industry
and the means that are necessary to
insure fair start anywhere, need
not lack for opportunity in any part
of Colorado:
The fact that the growth of Colo
RADIO is not progressing at rate that
compares we'll with that of other To-
calities that have far less to offer,
shows conclusively that our people
are not doing what they ought to
attract the attention of home seek
ers in other states.
All the conditions are right for
great increase in Colorado's popula-
ton in the next few years, and if
Colorado does not get that increase
it will be entirely Colorado's own
