Produce

A great demand for apples is being experienced by local produce dealers, and high prices are being gotten for them, but the great drawback is that the market is practically bare of this popular fruit.
 Local onions are now plentiful and are finding a ready market. Crystal wax and yellow Bermudas are now coming in steadily. Garlic, from old Mexico, is also received regularly by dealers here
 A car of mixed fruits and vegetables was received yesterday. and was left in the ice house all day to keep fresh for distribution today.
 A car of lemons, a car Of potatoes and a car of bananas are scheduled to arrive in this city today.
 Summer squash is now coming in in large quantities and in excellent condi- tion. It is selling at @ very reasonable figure.
 First express shipments of apricots were made yesterday. Only a few boxes of the locally grown fruit was sent away.

was made of q white clay called kao-
lin. 1t is as white as -four and is
the very best clay for making china.
Sometimes it IS mixe1 with other kinds
Of clay, and used for china that is not
SO fine. All kinds %. clay have to be
ground up and all the impurities
taken from it. Sometimes big mag
nets are used to draw out any little
pieces of n.etal that might be in it.,
for after it IS fired they would make
ugly places in the china"
Il wonder who ever thought Of
making dishes out of clay?" the lit
tie boy said.
Long ago nobody but the Chinese
knew how to make, this fine china,
for although other nations had been
making china. too. it was not as fine.
OF course, the Chinese wouldn't tell
anybody and you know nobody was
allowed to go. into their country to
find out. Finally. one Chinaman. who
talked too much. gave the secret away
while he was travelling in another
country. He said it was made from
kind Of clay that looked like ground
wheat. So the chemists of other
countries began to look for that kind

rather a strange way. The wife of a
