THE MARKET BASKET

Correspondent.

Correspondence.
Do you know how to select cante-
loupe at the market?
A local market man of wide exper-
ience told me the other day that the
net of the rind was almost an infal-
lible guide. The heavier the net,
the more fully mature the melon. "a
light net" he said, "is almost al
ways a sign of immaturity." In the
long list of varieties only one does
not net, the Usage Gem, Michigan
melon, which will not be on the mar
ket for several weeks yet. Many
canteloupes are coming in from Cali

ARE YOU DOING YOUR PART TO
MAKE THIS A DESERTED Tvwy?

HAT if this pleasant home town of
ours became Deserted Village ,"
The folks who send their dollars
to other towns and cities to buy their
needs and their luxuries can tell YOU
Just how to make this a Deserted
Village" The trick can be done bv
everybody following the example Of
the few and buying elsewhere.
Then there would be no money to
pay people who work. There would
be no money at all to buy farm
produce; no money for fire and DO
lice protection; no money to keep up
homes; no money to hold people in
this town at all. And so your prop
erty and home and job would have
little value.
