deluge Of last Wednesday night and
Thursday morning caused a great
amount of damage. Housewives who
nave been awaiting the appearance
in the market of native strawberries
for home canning are very much dis
appointed with present prospects for
the threatened high prices will mean
that a reduction in the winter supply
OF preserved fruit is very likely.
Another result from the storm is
the flooding of the market with po-
tatoes held over from last winter in
the hope of a better market about
this time, many cellars in which the
tubers were stored having been
flooded. necessitating the removal Of
the crop.
