MARKET BASKET NOTES
FOR CITY HOUSEWIVES
Summer Fruits and Garden Truck Disappear Fast from Mar
ket, While Hot-house Products Appear Home Grown
Vegetables of All Varieties Plentiful

While unexpected warm weather has
kept the produce market supplied
later than usual with green vegetables.
summer fruits and truck are fast dis
appearing from the local market.
A local grocer said today, that he
would have no more melons, or sweet
corn after this week. Beets, lettuce,
radishes, cauliflower, now sold are all
hot house grown.
Home grown vegetables of the fall
varieties are plentiful and of good
quality. Irish potatoes are plentiful
although most of them are shipped
from Michigan. The price is very
reasonable, but it is hard to predict
winter prices as the Maine potato
crop is under quarantine by the gov
eminent on account of an outbreak of
powdery scab.
Peaches Higher.
Grimes Golden apples appeared on
the market this week. The fruit is
of good quality but small due to dry
weather during the summer months.
The price at 25c a half peck is reason
able. Good Rhode Island Greening
apples can be had for 90c a bushel.
Peaches at S2.25 per bushel are ten
cents higher than last week, and soft.
Grocers predict no more bulk sales of
this fruit
Good quality of tomatoes can still
be had at 75c a bushel, and the market
is being crowded with green tomatoes
for picking, in anticipation Of predict
ed frost for next week.
Prices for produce tomorrow will
be much the same as last week, with
the exceptions named above

The Purdue representative favors
Mr.. Jones plan of oiling all roads
leading into Richmond and as many
in the county as money can be Sc
cured for. When he was informed
that the objection to oiling gravel
roads is that they become spongy in

ton Of drainage and an oiled road
which would become spongy In spring
would be worse If unoiled.

superintendent Jones spent most of
yesterday afternoon showing Mr.. Mar
tin the roads of the county which have
been completed and the repair gangs
in each county who are engaged in the
upkeep work. Mr.. Martin was then
taken to the National Road east below
Twenty-third street. He was unable
to distinguish between the work of
prisoners and that Of 81 a day, men
nor could he pick the prisoners from
the others.
After concluding his work, Mr.. Mar.

the best gravel roads that can be
built for the amount of money and
that the system in Wayne county il
we'll carried out. He did not have op
portunity to 60 into detail as he Is

"Wayne county has q class of gravel
roads far above the average" de-
clared George e. Martin Of the engi-
neering department of Purdue univer-
sity who inspected the county road
system here yesterday In company
with Superintendent Jones.
Mr. Martin was we'll pleased with
his investigation here. He said that
Wayne county is the only county he
has visited in his Investigations where
prisoners were successfully worked,
although other counties have tried to
work their prisoners in chain gang.
The purpose of the Investigations
is to bring back road building informa-
ton of a practical nature to Purdue
University. Mr.. Martin is a member
OF the newly established highway de-
partment Of the university. Purdue
will be made a clearing house OF road
information and serve to disseminate
throughout the state the new ideas
and best methods as they find them .
Views on Roads.
Mr.. Martin does not advocate any
kind of road for general use. For
trunk highways, he advises a hard
surface such as concrete or brick or
for we'll travelled highways. macadam
stone roads,.

thereof l had a delightful time golf

tically.

reaching the little city was Mr.. Van
Oven, one of Beloit's most enthu-
siastic golfers, and a little later at
the l.. c. Hyde & Britain Bank
met my good friends Mr.. Rockwell
and Mr. Britain. The first bit of golf
news that was communicated to me
was that Dan" was dead, and Dam
be it known, was the faithful horse
that did his share of the work about
the Beloit course. His death was
deeply felt by all the members of the
club, but particularly by Frank Crog-
han, who is greenkeeper, housekeep-
er, caddy master-in fact, almost
everything at the Beloit Club from
April l to Thanksgiving Day. Hav-
ing been deeply attached to the horses
at Edgewater when ! was a boy,

know that his last days had been
peacefully passed at beautiful Nor
