most profitable eason this year Jhao
they have had in many years.
The actual figures being paid in the
northern markets at the present time
for high grade lettuce range Sro.a
$50 to $3.50 a basket. and it is SAID
that there is no apparent reason Why
there should be any decrease ii these

news of the high prices being Daid for
lettuce in the northern markets has
raised the spirits of the growers to 4
high point and they are feeling juh;-
la over the outlook.
Last year at this time, for the sans
sold at 81 and 1926 and the present
sold at 81 and $1.25 and the o2resent
prices represent an advance Of more
than 100 per cent.
The shipments from this section are
just starting, the first full car, contain
ing 412 baskets. having gone norti: to
a Philadelphia house on Tuesday. II
is expected that four or five other cars
will be loaded and shipped by FriGa:,
and these shipments VIII continue for
several weeks.
There are already quite a number Of
commission men, representing north
ern houses in this section and It is
expected that the big demand for let
tuce, reflected in the high prices being
paid for it. will cause the Ssending of
quite a number more here. who will
probably arrive within the next few
days.
The growers in this section STUCK
it lucky this year, their crops having
become matured just as the Florida
supply was exhausted and two or three
e in advance OF the lettuce around
Norfolk. So for a period of a few
weeks it IS expected that the high
ariees will be continued. This will
mea the bringing in Of Sabout three

A Very handsome and splendidly dis
played array OF spring millinery was
shown yesterday at the mammoth es-
tablishment OF the George o. Gaylord
department store on North Front ST. Get
the occasion being their annual open
ing of spring millinery. To the corQial
invitation that had been extended TO
the ladies of the city there was L very
generous response, and during the lay
the two big stores OF the company
were ~thronged with visitors, the mec>.
for them all. being naturally, the mil
linery department.
The Gaylord company claims 10
have the largest and most complete
line OF millinery, wholesale and retail,
in the state and certainly there is little
ground for complaint at the fine show
that is made.
1t is not possible to even ATTEMPT TO
give -8ny description of the beautiful
creations of the milliner's art that are
on display, suffice it to say that the
ladies who visited the store were pro-
fuse in their compliments on the mag
nificent effects, and that scores Of :rem
selected their Easter hats from he
| great number exhibited.
| Miss Alma Brown, the lea milllner,
| who has been connected with the com
| pany for many years, and who knows
] tho tastes ana daciroc pf tho cI1ctOr1orc
/ Of that concern, was Rept busy all day,
as were her large number of assist
ants, displaying to best advantage the
beautiful hats in the store. Miss Brown
recently spent some time in the north
ern markets, inspecting the spring
millinery in the big metropolitan stores
and she ordered the complete stock eX-
hibited at Gaylord's from several of the
houses that offered the most fetching
styles. Miss Brown has in the rnil;in-
er's department 80 young ladies eight
of these being trimmers and employed
in the work room, while the others are
s~alesladies, ever anxious and ready TO
wait on prospective purchasers.
A feature of the Gaylord establish
ment is that all hats are trimmed free,
where the hats and material are pm
chased from the store.
In the wholesale millinery depart
ment there is a tremendous assortment
of hats of all shapes and shades flow
ers in %profusion, of all colors and sizes
birds and plumes, and ribbons in every
conceivable color, from which most
any one COULD make a satisfying
choice. These goods are used to supply
the extensive out-of-town trade OF the
Gaylord store.
OF the extensive offerings in the re-
tail department, Miss Brown said tIat
the most popular shapes this season
are the Empire, Mayflower, Parsifal
and derby shapes and that the flow@rs
most used are daises, wisteria and pan
sizes. The colors for which there is Il
more decided preference are cham
payne, all shades of brown, COpenha-
gen, Blue and Apricot. The trimmings
generally used are plumes, flowers and
ribbons.
The opening which began yesterday
will be continued throughout today
and an invitation is given to all ladies'
to visit the store and inspect the
stock.
