SNAKE RIVER STEADILY
EATING AWAY TOWN

BAGGS, Wyo., Dec. 17.-This
town of 200 souls is doomed to ex-
tinction unless the Snake river
ceases it's periodical rampages. The
river is steadily and rapidly eating
its way into the bank on which the
town is built, and in it's frequent
overflows is forming a new bed
that leads to the northern part of
the village. 1t is probable if the
Snake follows its new course in the
spring floods that the bridge now
crossing the river here will be left
high and dry and the town itself ell
tirely inundated.

Hartford, July 15-The Connect- cut Company, which Is just about paying operating expenses, according to officials of the company, will do nothing that will keep the public from riding on trolleys in its attempt to secure more revenue, according to a statement from the New Haven office of the company yesterday.

BRIDGEPORT MARKET
 REPORT

July 15. 1S13.
 Prepared by the City Marketing Agent, of the Bureau of Markets. U. s. Department of Agriculture, Con- necticut Agricultural College, CO., operating.
 ABUNDANT-New beats, carrots, green beans, peaches, .vaternrelons, cabbage lettuce NORNIAL.-Banana lemons, or anges, onions, tomatoes, potatoes, can- taIoupes, cucumberS, blackber1eS, summer squash.
 SCARCE.-Celery, peas, apples entrants, sweet corn, rhubarb, red raspberries, black raspberries.
 Potatoes Higher.
 It is probable that the advance in price of the old reliable potato, af- fects the pocketbook of the consumer more than any other vegetable. Not only have new potatoes taken a sud- den jump in price, but old potatoes have had a, tendency in the upward direction, during the last few days. About week ago. new potatoes were selling to retailers at s6.50 to $7 a barrel This morning (Tuesday) prices had advanced to s7.25 to sS a barrel or from 6 1-2 to Sc a peck higher for the same grade of "spuds-" The rise is attributed to a combina- ton of circumstances. q large per centage of the crop on eastern shore of Virginia, where most of the pota- toes have been coming from for the past few days, have been harvested. New Jersey is reported to have a light crop, and at present there seems to be some difficulty in ob- taining cars for transports tation. BIackberries and Biueberr1es in
 Season.
 Blackberries and bIueberries are the most abundant berries on the market at present. Red raSpberries are practically gone and the light supply of black raspberries do not show the size CT quality they did the first of the season. Pennsylvania has been supplying most of the 5lackberrieS but the sea son for the native blackberry has just opened and few crates were offered to the retail trade this morning. Blackberries sold mostly at 25 to 30 cents a quart today, although a few crates of fancy stock brought as high as 35 cents q quart Blueberries sold at 2s to 30 cents a quart' some of them coming from the Berkshire Hills Of Massa chusetts. Growers claim that berries are dropping due to the dry weather, and that they are not able to harvest the fruit. The following are wholesale prices. The consumers should expect to pay on the average from 20 to 40 per cent. above these prices to cover the retailers cost of doing business and his legitimate profits. Wholesale prices paid and same prices on small measures: Vegetables
 Beets, native, 5o-6o dog. punches; 4-5c bunch.
 Beans, green and wax, $1-$1.50 bushel; 3-5c quart Cabbage, $2.75-$3.50 barrel; 9-14c head.
 Carrots, native, 35-50c doz bchs 3-4c bunch.
 Lettuce, large head, 50-65 doz.; A. sc head.
 Onions, ss-ss.75 bushel: s-7 1-ec pound.
 Potatoes. Maine, $1-$1.so bushel; 25-45c peck.
 Potatoes, new U. S.. No. 1. $7.25- sS barrel; 66-73c peck. Summer squash. 7o-soc dozen: g. | s1-1c each.

The Lee Yates sale held yester-
day was a ''humdinger" state a
number who were in attendance.
While some of the stock did not
seem to bring prices commensur-
ate with their real value, the
sale brought much more than
Mr.. Yates anticipated. Among
the good sellers was a brood SOW
that brought $3.50, Chickens
sold for a dollar a piece. l. E.

in person, he having come to
Kooskia to secure employment.
At all times since his return to
Spokane he was in communica-
ton with his wife and would have
made good in this section had not
