to balance myself securely therein, as

sleeves OF the garment continued to

Hardly had I adjusted myself. and

Weekly Market Review for Washington Consumers
SPRING GREENS AND EARLY VEGETABLES For APPETIZERs

With the advent of real spring
weather consumers watch eagerly for
something new" to stimulate lag
ging appetite. AS a wide variety
OF vegetables are now available house
wives should have but little difficulty
in securing something palatable" to
meet their individual tastes.
Kale is now the cheapest and the
most abundant of homegrown vege-
tables. while spinach, turnips, green's
and land cress are also available. A
few progressive farmers are also sup
plying Washington with a limited
amount of lettuce and radishes which
have been grown under glass, and
housewives wishing to make sauce or

pies can even obtain out-of-dooC rhu-
barb at n fairly reasonable price.
1t is not necessary, however. for the
housewife to confine herself to the
home grown products. North and
South Carolina and California are now
providing Washington with fresh as
paragus. Florida is shipping a large
variety of spring vegetables. including
new potatoes, cabbage. tomatoes, Gu
cumbers, lettuce. beets, green beans,
peppers and eggplants. While the
prices OF many of these shipped-in
products are above the ordinary
pocketbook, most of the home grown
vegetables are within the reach of

Steadiness and industry is indicated
by the planetary direction as the gen.

States, and labor difficulties which

happiness in the family is foretold.
