Public Market Places
In the Smaller Cities
LaFollette's Magazine.

City markets worthy the name and
under municipal regulation have been
practically unknown in all but the
larger cities Of America. However,
they bid fair to soon become the rule.
The increasing cost Of living, the
congestion Of population in our cities,
the success of market ventures by
our larger municipalities and the
lesser cost of living In European
cities where public markets are no
longer an experimental these are
facts that are beginning to appeal
to thoughtful municipality minds and
to chrystallize into action.
Encouraged by the success Of Bal
timore, famed for its dozen markets
and low prices; of Houston, Texas,
which Is deriving a revenue of $780,
900 year from its market, of Boston
and other cities which can make an
even better showing from the stand
point Of money returns, smaller mu-
inequalities are beginning to change
the methods that obtain in marketing
within their Jurisdiction.
Primarily. of course, the purpose
Of the regulated market is to secure
the freest and most direct contract
between producer and consumer; to
bring about closer and more intelli-
gent relationship; to make the cost
OF produce to the consumer as small
as possible through the elimination
of the middleman and his profits.
These, with regulations to prevent
speculation in food-stuffs and to avert
possible famines or corners in food
supplies, are the chief considerations.
Incidentally the public market under
efficient regulation has other advan-
tages. Honesty in weights and meas
ures and more sanitary precautions
for the protection Of the public health
can be enforced through IT. With
central market or markets provided,
the unwholesome and meuacing prac-
tice Of selling meats and fruits in
the open and dusty streets can be
greater uniformity in prices brought
about.
Madison, Wisconsin, Is ono Of the
of its class in this country to under
take the solution Of its marketing
needs in the practical manner of the
larger cities by the creation of q mu-
nicipal market. To establish this
latest institution the city reclaimed
a half block Of marsh land adjacent
to a street car line and constructed
thereon a market place and market
house costing $4,000. The entire
ground and floor area was built OF
concrete, as were the sheds and
market house. The main building
is 100 by rs feet and has a large open
floor for the display and sale of pro-
! duce. It is also provided with all

AMBASSADOR AND MRS,
REID GAVE RECEPTION

London, Nov. 24.-American Am
bassador Reid and Mrs. Reid gave

ter House today. The guests includ-
ed the officers OF the American visit
ing feet and many persons from the
American colony in London. Elevens
from the battleships Idaho and Yer

silver cup given by local paper.
The spectators included many Eng

comforts and conven1ences to make
the place attractive and popular
wash rooms, retiring rooms, tables for
luncheons, smoking rooms; rooms
for men and women, provided with
chairs, tables and settees, water,
light, telephones, clocks, etc. Sheds
and watering places Of the latest
modern construction also are provi-
ded for horses and other live stock.
Significant as indicating the public
interest taken In this latest municipal
enterprise was the formal opening OF
the market. The day set was a par
ticularly disagreeable one, yet in re-
spouse to Invitations extended by the
city administration the market was
crowded throughout the day and in
the gathering were many representa-.
tfves from all walks of life in the
city, with farmers from miles around.
The days program included music,
addresses of welcome and a lunch,
the last served by the city officers
and employees. The informality and
good fellowship manifested on the &C.
casion augured auspiciously for the
project.
AS Mayor Schubert we'll said, the
determination should be and will be,
to make it the peoples market, where
every citizen may direct his or her
way and to best advantage.
This market, like others of its kind,
will be under complete regulation by
the city that the ends of its establish
ment-the good of the consuming
public-may be fully protected. A
superintendent will have charge of
the building and grounds, with au-
thority to enforce honest weights
and measures and all necessary
police requirements.
The rules provide, among other
things, for the market being kept
open from a. m. to 6 p. M; for a
scale OF fees and charges; against
speculation in market produce;
against huckstering elsewhere in the
city save by farmers or licensed ped
dlers; against the use of liquor or
improper behavior; against individ-
ual selling of more than one charac-
ter OF produce or article. and for
cleanliness on the part Of the selling
public. The policy as set forth by
the mayor will be to give the greatest
encouragement to the farmer and
producer to make use of the market
Accordingly, little or no charge will
be exacted Of them for the use Of the
market, the maintenance Of which is
expected to come principally from
the regular renters of stands. The
ends sought will be honesty in
weights and measures, clean produce
and low prices. These should be the
purposes of all markets and only on
their attainment can such projects
be Of service to the people and sue
cess to their promoters.

MOTOR INDUSTRY
CENTRALIZED HERE
Compilation by Magazine Writer
Show Tremendous Degree To Which
This Has Come To Be the Case.

The tremendous degree to which the
manufacture of motor cars has been
centralized In the state Of Michigan is
rent number OF Motor Age of Chi
cago. which believes that. during 1910.
313,373 cars will DC manufactured In
the United States, OF which Michigan
is credited with ability to turn out
161. ZIG. while Ohio. its nearest rival,
is credited with 40.150. Indiana with
S6.915. and New York with 31,112. No
other state will manufacture more
than 10000 cars. A large share OF
Michigan's activity is, of course. cen
tralizej In Detroit. which Motor Age
believes will produce very near TO
100000 cars. this figure being. how
ever considerably below the factory
estimates.
An interesting feature OF the com
pilation Is the tact that the tremen-
dous expansion of the Buick factory
has raised Flint to second position
among the producing cities.
With the Lansing, Pontiac and other
Michigan factories all In operation as
they are. Motor Age figures that the
valuation OF Michigans output must
De very close To the astounding sum
of $202.9l0.000.
Motor Age fnds 156 different maacs
of gasoline pleasure cars heing pro-
duced all over the country, OF whic.l
Detroit leads with e. Chicago being
second with IA. OF which all are small
factories.
In summing up the Detroit situa-
ton, Motor Age says:
THE city Of Detroit will alone pro.
duce 99.246 gasoline pleasure cars for
1910, and these will return q value OF
SIS, ,136.000 from the public. Detroit's
cars alone will furnish some interest
ing figures. such as: II they were
placed end TO end they would reach
from New York to Boston, or q dis
tance Of 207 miles. II paid for In dol
lar bills and these were placed end
to end they would reach over halr
way around the world. Detroit's out.
Put OF these cars will equal that or
the next three largest cities in num-
bers produced.
Figuring the 1909 output at 100,0
and previous cars, on duty at $4,000.
we here have a car for one out OF
every 1877 people In the United States,
and IL about one-third OF thee were
men we have ,he astonishing figure
of one car for each 80 men. The ques-
ton Immediately suggests itself How
long before they will each have one? ="
