MISTRESS XMAS
SHOPPER, DON'T!
Well, Don't Let the Baby
Guard Your Purse for
One Thing.
PREVENTION IS BEST

The holiday season with its rush and
hustle always brings in few minor
complaints of pickpockets and pack
age thieves, and already the police
have received reports of several in
stances of petty theft. The old adage
of it's being too late to lock the stable
after the<horse is stolen applies here.
Take thought beforehand, and the
petty thief will be unable to take ad-
vantage of your carelessness.
A woman in store the other day
with her arm full of bundles was sur
prised to find on opening her purse
that she had no change in it. She re-
membered having just cashed a TWEEN
ty-dollar bill and being given $40 in
change moment before in another
store down the street. AS she snap
ped the clasp of her bag she noticed
quantity of spinach" in her hand.
She had been carrying the change
loosely. The sum might have been
larger and the carelessness the same,
opening an opportunity to the always
opportune thief.
Chief Supplies Some "Don'ts."
The chief of police has drawn up a
list of few donts for Christmas
shoppers. The common sense of this
appeal is one as apparent as that of
the old proverb just given, but strange
ly enough, It is just these aobvious pre-
cautions that people forget in the
hurry and excitement of running down
the right kind of toy dishes for Su-
san or top Hupmobile for Bob or the
books for Ned, not to speak of all the
little odds and ends like silver Irvine
and Christmas seals.
So here are Chief Logan's "don'ts",
together with general and envelop-
ing don't of don't forget them.
/. Don't leave your house to go
shopping, without securely locking the
doors and windows.
2. Don't leave your purse in the
baby carriage, and expect an infant
to guard it.
Don't leave purse or package at one
end of store while you go shopping
in the other.
a. Don't leave baby carriage il,
the aisle of store, whether there is
baby in it or not. A fire might
break out and INSTRUCTED aisles add
to the confusion and danger.
s. Don't leave Christmas packages
unguarded in an automobile. 1t is
very easy to take articles out Of stand
| ing cars.
| 8. Don't forget to count yonr
change when you receive, and don't
return to the merchant an hour or q
week later and say you were given
wrong change.

Better Markets
Boost Prices
Price of Cabbage Scars as TranspOr-
tation is Provided and
Markets Improved.
fRv Associated Press J

Madison, Wis.-Cold weather, car
shortage and an improve demand at
terminal markets are given by the
state department Of markets as causes
for the greatly improved cabbage mar
ket during the past few weeks. Where
growers throughout the fall were re-
ceiving an average of $4 a ton, they
now are receiving from S11 to $12,
the department says.
"The market started the season in a
weak condition and during the main
shipping season the demand and move
ment were only moderate" the report
declared. "To increase the difficult
ties the car shortage was severe all
during the fall.
"Most of the growers who sold dur
ing the fall marketing months received
from SO to Sc per ton for their cab
bagew it'll the general average around
81. This amount hardly paid for harry
esting and marketing costs and some
acreage in the state was abandoned.
"Since the first of the month there
has been a decided improvement in the
cabbage market and those growers and
dealers who held cabbage in storage
are benefited by the increased prices
now being paid. Growers are now re-
ceiving 81 to $12 per ton for U. s..
Grade No. Danish type cabbage, and
car lots are selling f. o. b. shipping
points for SIS to SIT per ton.
wisconsin to date has shipped ap-
proximately 4100 cars as compared
to 1900 cars of cabbage shipped all
last season. There are between 800
and 1000 cars of last years crop still
remaining to be shipped"

clared that the world was looking t.
America for the brains and construc-
