dollhouse Vegetables Sold Well on OF

Winter - Soon Season of Spring
stuffs to be the Year Round.

Spring brings variety of good
things in the line of edibles which are
denied during the long months of win
ter. The time is at hand when the
suffering public can break away from
the canned goods which have filled the
breach, for fresh produce from the
gardens will be coming into the city
! ere long, and the market will be piled
high with tempting assortments of the
I things which are 80 highly priced as
table Injuries.
Hothouse grown vegetables have
been on the market in greater quanti-
ties during the past winter than was
ever the case before, the grocers state,
the demand for them having grown
surprisingly. The grocer remarks that
, conditions are so shaping themselves
that there will be no season for vege-
table goods soon, but that these goods
will be on the market all the year
round. For instance, spinach has been
kept in the stock of grocers all winter
and the greater quantities have been
sold for the reason that it is one OF
the few vegetables in winter stock, and
of these few it is the most popular.
