MIR. RASPBERRY ARRIVES.
Strawberry Season Is Oyer-ShiD.
ments of Other Fruit Arrive From
Illinois,

The strawberry season is now prac-
tically over.
Some stray shipments are still COM
ing in from isolated points in Wiscon-
sin, but the regular shipments have
ceased. The berries will probably be
Oh the market for a week or tend days
to come, but they are becoming scarce,
and the price will become gradually
higher from now until the time they
are out of the market
Their place is being taken by rasp-
berries. Red raspberries are now be-
ing received daily. The shipments are
coming from Illinois, and next week
they will be quite plentiful.
Blueberries are also on the market
now, the first shipments having come
in during the last week. They are
rather scarce as yet but they will
become more plentiful next week.
The only other berries in the market
at present are gOOseberrieS, but the
supply of these is variable and cannot
be counted on.
Considering the season of the year,
there is a very fair supply OF CalifOr-
MIA fruit on the market at the present
time.
The season for California cherries is
nearly over. but there will be a fair
supply OF them for a week or ten days
yet
1t is still early for plums and peach
es, but they are beginning TO become
quite plentiful.
The demand for all kinds of Califor-
mia fruits is very heavy just at the
present time. in anticipation of the
Fourth of July trade.
This is the height of the season for
Florida pineapples. The pines were
never more plentiful or of a better
quality than they are now. The season
will not last more than week or ten
days more, and the dealers are advis-
ing housekeepers who wish to buy
them for preserving, to do SO at once.
as they will be practically out of the
market in two weeks.
The potato market is much easier
The receipts of new potatoes have
been quite liberal during the week.
and the price has dropped from SIPS
bushel to about 80 cents. Oklahoma
and Indian Territory are at present
the source of supply and the crop in
that part of the country seems to have
been a good one. The demand for old
potatoes is steadily decreasing, and
they will not be in the market much
longer.
New celery from the district about
Kalamazoo, Mich, is in the market.
Up to the present time the celery has
been mostly imported from California.
and the South, but the Michigan celery
is now ready for shipment. and the
supply is becoming quite plentiful.
The receipts of California cantel-
oupes have been quite liberal during
the week and the price is lower.
Receipts of fresh eggs and butter
continue liberal, the prices are ruling
low, eggs being quoted at 15k to 16
cents dozen. Quite number of eggs
are being placed in cold storage, and
the market is being kept pretty we'll
cleaned up.
Fish are still very scarce The
storms prevent the fishermen from
getting out, and the receipts of fresh
trout and Lake Superior white fish
are very small. The supply is barely
sufficient to supply the demand, and
it has been difficult to secure fresh
fish during the last two or three weeks.

Waterbury evening Democrat., 1906-07-13

Ever since the Spanish war some- body has been begging away at the
 uniforms of Uncle Sam's soldiers, and now an English tailor has been called in to establish a model uniform. Gen eral Chaffee, that rough and ready campaigner. who has worn every thing in the way of a uniform from the togs furnished by the quarter master to enlisted men up to the full
 dress of a lieutenant general. began to lecture the ranks about shaping up in the matter of dress while he
 was in command in China. Our Hen did come out of the Spanish war ap- parently reveling in a go-as-you- please way of wearing their things. The fellows were always picturesque, though, when the beholder had in mind the transports, Fl Caney and San Juan hill, but to think of them as soldiers merely. to be associated with paTades and reviews. put the matter in another light. Somehow it is getting to be the fashion in certain quarters to think of the soldier as an ideal army man instead of the man with the musket and sa5er who does things when the question of soIdierly appearance comes up. We rejoice in pictures of the old Continentals. who often hadn't a whole shirt to uesr and seldom boasted of jacket at all. Sherman's men. marching home from the sea. are often referred to as the ideal for soldiers who have been whzeking al the enemy, and battle pieces showing the tough looking Confederstes who never had tvo gar ments of the same color stir u7 feel inzs akin to those of the goo1 old .'secssh- dame welcoming Stonewsil Jsckson's corps into Maryland with the words, God bless your dirty.

WHEAT GROWERS ROBBED.
The Common Carrier and Elevator
 Combine to Be Probed Next.

Washington, July l3.-Ths intsr- state commerce commission is laying the foundation for an inquiry into the relations between common car riers and grain elevators Wheat growers of the northwest have chare- ed that the railroads use the eleva- tors 10 oppress them.
 One of the commonest of practices. they aIlege. is for the railroad and elevator combine to 'rate the whea. sent to them at less than its true grade and paying upon that low .at- ing. and then selling it on its true rating. Thus the combine. while pay ing for only two bushels of No i wheat. is able to sell three. or even three and a half.
 The commission has sent a letter to all the great ersin-carryine reads of the country asking them for in- formation as to the number of ele- vators on their lines. their owner ship. details about milling in transit rates and the effect such rates have upon through and local rates.
