Valparaiso. Chile. Feb. THE news

TO PASS COUNTRY
MARKET STAGE
Richmond Will Soon Have a
Public Market During
The Entire Year.
WAITE MANS PLANS.
THINKS THAT THE PUBLIC is EN-
TITLED TO MORE THAN occAs-
IoNAL MARKET AS THERE is A
STRONG DEMAND.

Richmond will soon be past the
country market stage; it will have a
city market all the year around in
stead of on important holidays and dur
ing the summer season only. Market
master Henry Waterman believes the
public here is entitled to something
more than an occasional market. and
his plans now contemplate keeping the
South Side establishment open praC-
tically all the year around. ne has al
ready instituted the plan of having
market every Saturday afternoon and
night and will continue this through
the entire winter. Heretofore it has
the market season untn the first of
June, but that will not Oe the case this
year, as the pening will be pushed for
ward until the first of May. Mr.. "aI-
terman argues tnat tuere is plenty of
stuff ready to go onto the market a
month earlier than has been the Gus
tom in Richmond and that the public
should have the benefit of it
Last Saturday on the city market,
165 chickens were disposed Of. and
there is to be found even in this mid
winter season a liberal supply, not
only of poultry, but fresh meats. eggs,
butter, vegetables, green stuff and
fruits. The market habit is growing,
Mr.. Waterman says, and he has OBJ
served that persons who remove to
Richmond from larger places, where
they have been in the nabit of having
a city market Always available, come
to the Richmond market to do their
trading whenever an opportunity is
afforded.
