LESS PRODUCE AT
THE CITY MARKET
Falling Of in Total Receipts in
1913 Caused by Meat
Stand Withdrawal.

Total receipts at the city market,
which has now closed for the winter,
were slightly less the past season than
during the one of 1912, according to
the reports of John Mcbride, market
master. In the last season the sum
paid for produce was $l1,291.75,
against $12.50S.32 in 1912.
The difference, according to Mayor
Carlson, was caused by the fact that
there was no meat stand in the market
this season. Next year be hopes to
have one, a man who is competent TO
handle it having practically agreed to
look after it. He will buy and slaugh-
ter his own meat. The mayor says
there will be no stand if 1t is necessary
to buy the supplies from the packers.
Great difficulty has been experienced
ever since the market opened, in get
ting sufficient produce to supply the
demand. Buyers are on the ground
early and quickly snap up most OF
the produce offered for sale. The re-
suit has been that prices have ruled
about as high as those in the retail
stores of the city. Buyers. however.
say they are willing to pay such
prices in order to be certain of get
ting their vegetables fresh.
According to the maIaet master,
notice of the closing of the market
the first of this month was followed
by sharp rise in the retail price of
produce all over the city, though this
may have been due to the frost which
put fresh vegetables practically out
