Cheap Bananas.

Buyers Of Bananas know that for sew

Fruit has been lower than for many years.
Some say they never knew tho price Tor

when fine fruit can be purchased from 4
to 10 cents a dozen, the last named price
being rarely asked. The cheapness OF
bananas has been generally attributed
to competition between the United Fruit
Company, Of Boston, and the Atlantic
Fruit Company of this city. These con-
Germs practically control the importing
trade of the fruit to this country. The
