BONE IS BACK.


I'm every city I visited in which
municipal markets are successfully 0p-
Grated the general consensus OF opin-
ion was that these markets did not
reduce the cost Of living. Prices were
not reduced by the city markets, but
the people are AFFORDED a larger selec-
ton from which to choose their pur-
chases and probably rus get q better
quality Of food"
The foregoing is the way Roy L
Bone, city commissioner Of finance.
summed up his findings ON tour of
which he made for the city of Topeka.
He returned last night after visiting
Des Moines. Ia; Dubuque. Ia: Aurora.

Indianapolis. Ind. and Galesburg. Ill
Il learned that without exception.
where municipal markets are being
operated. successfully they started As
kets being operated successfully and
some which are failures" said Mr..
Bone. Columbus and Dayton have
the best real genuine markets.
The municipal market in Des
Moines is not q success. The city
went ahead and built large building
two stories high, with the result that
the second story is worthless and few
people patronize the place.
The Dubuque market Is entirely q
successful. Aurora's market is also a
curb market; but is not well patron
lied. Toledo has had a sad experience
with her municipal market The city
went to the expense of voting bonds
to the amount of $4,000. but this
market is no benefit to the people at
all. 1t is simply a place for the
wholesalers and grocers to do busi-
ness in and foods are sold only in
wholesale lots. Toledo has curb
market, however, which is well pat
rOnied.
''The only times that good foods are
sold cheap in the markets are on Sat-
urday nights. Then the people occa-
sionally get the advantage of buying
from dealers who cannot afford to
keep their products over Sunday"
Mr.. Bone hopes to have a written
report of his Investigations ready to
present to the city commission Nom
day.
