LOAD OF SWEET
POTATOES home
CROWN ARRIVES
First Placed on Markets of This
City for Several Years Makes
Appearance.

First load of sweet potatoes,
grown locally, arrived in this city
yesterday. Rock Island wholesale
and retail dealers were surprised
to see the load, it being the first
crop grown in the community that
has been put on the market in sew
eraI years.
Years ago it was common to have
sweet potatoes brought into the
city. Today it has become a rare
event Just what the producer OBJ
tanned for the load could not be
ascertained.
Market Unchanged.
The local markets in wheat. oats
and corn remain practically the
same. Several retail grocers have
predicted that a reduction in the
price of foods is not far off. Fine
eating apples of all qualities are
making their appearance Peaches
and pears are plentiful. The blue
grapes are not as plentiful as had
been hoped. Homegrown grapes
are coming IN faster, however, now
than they have been in the last
three weeks. Prices on butter,
eggs and cheese remain the same.

of which are also extended so as
to include most of the Istrian
peninsula and a strip along the
western frontier of the province of
Carinthia.
All that remains of the former
empire is what is known as Ger
man-Austria, including Upper and
Lower Austria, and parts of Syria
and of TyrOl.
Since the close of hostilities
gtheTe has been a movement afOot
/by which Austria would be an
nexed by Germany. By one of the
most important clauses of the
treaty signed today this is forbid
den.
Indemnities Not Fixed.
The treaty does not stipulate an
exact sum to be paid in indemni-
ties. This amount will be fixed by
the reparations commission on or
before May l, 1921, the commits
sion also being empowered to de-
termine the details of the pay
ments which will extend over a
period of 80 years.
This sum must be paid by the
Austrian republic and is not to be
appOrtioned among the compon
ent parts of the country which
have been declared Independent.
In addition to paying indemni-
ties, Austria must also replace ton
for ton all ships Lost by the allies

countries works Of art and objects

industrial purposes.
The economic clauses and those
relative to freedom of transit are
similar to those of the German
pact.
Questions relative to the DISPOSE

settled in the Austrian treaty, but
Austria renounces in favor of the
allied and associated powers all
her rights and titles over terri

which, though outside the new
frontiers of Austria, have not at
present been assigned to any
state. She undertakes to accept
any settlement made in regard to
those territories.
