The streets and sidewalks committee of the common council will have a meeting to dis cl1ss the matter next Tuesday night ait o'clock in the 1cIty clerks office but the members of this conaInittee are practically decided on it now. The Terry estate owns all the property on the north side of the street except ti1ie brick building at Main and Congress streets It has been estimated that it will be necessary to slice off about 10 feet of this fbt1flding in order to get the desired width there. The build ing is owned by John J. and Abbie McCarthy of 671 Brooks street.
 Attorneys Erred D. Keeler and F. A. Bartlett, who represent the Terry es- tate, appeared at a. roeeting of the common council on Monday and ex- pIained that the heirs of the estate planned extensive Improvements in the property but before making them wamted ito be assured if the street was to be wtdened on the north side. The Terry estarte heirs will be satisfied with small land damages if the street is widemed now. Tho City Planning Commission favors widening the street and the streets and sidewalks commit tee will make favorable report on the project at the next meeting of the Icona1nOn council.

THE HIGH COST OF DISTRIB-
UTING FOOD PRODUCTS.

A wide range Of plans is being tried,
IL the endeavor to bring back the old
time conditions of direct trade be-
tween producer and consumer, or at
least between producer and retailer.
One method attaining some pOpu-
larity, is the public market idea.
Farmers drive in, or send in some
member of the family or hired man,
with stocks of goods. Several farm
ers may combine to send in supply
to the stalls.
Such markets depend for their sue
cess on several conditions. The Amer
lean people will not tolerate poor
goods Unless some market director
has the absolute power TO inspect the
stock and condemn unfit articles for
sale at that market. and unless he ex-
ercises that power strictly, a great
deal of poor truck will be worked off,
That will give the market a bad
name, and outside stores will be pre-
ferred.
Another essential for success is a
good system of rural transportation.
If the farms supplying the market are
reached only over poor or rough
roads the daily transportation Of
goods i'm small lots becomes too costly
II there is good trolley or rail con-
nection with outlying farms, the
chance of keeping up regular and
fresh supplies is much better.
A third essential is that the public
give up its lazy reliance on delivery
wagons, and carry Their own bundles.
Efforts are being made all over the
country by agricultural colleges, farm
bureaus etc, to interest city people in
buying from the farmer by parcel post
and express. Containers are being
devised TO carry regular supplies Of
eggs, butter. chickens, greens. etc. 1t
is asserted that group of city fam
lilies should be able TO pay FIVE cents
dozen more for eggs, five cents a
pound more for butter, than the farm
er now gets, and still underbid the
grocer five cents each. This seems
TO be hope rather than a demon
strated fact. But there is something
in the idea. The retail dealer, how
ever, if he is enterprising in seeking
opportunities for direct purchase OF
goods, and if he uses the aid of the
newspaper to reach out and broaden
his trade, occupies an impregna bl e
position.
