Teaching the kiddies traffic eau
tion in school is one of the things
now being done which materially re-
duces the child deaths and accidents
due to automobiles. In some schools
this form of instruction is already a
part of the regular exercises of the
institution and observers who have a
chance to see how it works are loud
in their praises.
This teaching makes the children
understand the danger of speeding
autos, and also trains them to avoid
other dangers as well without rely
ing on someone else to protec them.
The valuable quality of self-reliance
and the ability to take care of them
selves is thus developed.
Safety Sally" says, Educating
boys and girls to dodge autos is
great as far as it goes, but the re-
sponsibility after all is upon the mo-
torist. A child in the road is a dan
ger signal to slow down." How
forceful becomes the old saying that
haste makes waste" Automobiles
are dangerous weapons in the hands
of careless persons and are doing
far more bodily injury then revolvers
in the hands of thugs.
The motOrist who will not head
the warning of caution is a difficult
person to discipline. When demand 4
ing others right-of-way, turning
without giving proper warning,
crowding ahead in a line of moving
traffic, driving recklessly, etc,
stamps the erring motorist as a
menace on the highway and an un-
desirable citizen, a self-respecting
public is demanding that these prac-
tices cease.

Potato Markets Gain

The potato market has shown a
generally advancing tendency during
the first part of January Ad Vances
did not occur in all producing sec
tions nor in all of the Target markets,
but there were numerous upturns of
8 to 15c per 100 pounds mostly in
eastern and wid-western sections, al
though several far western shipping
points reported firm price conditions.
The demand recently has been fairly
encouraging at eastern shipping
points. Prices in central and west
er1 New York showed an upward
trend around zoe per 100 pounds al
though wagon load price to growers
continued at rs to SOC per bushel in
bulk. The haulings were rather
light.
Market for Maine potatoes has
shown a better tone. Actual price
advance has been rather moderate,
but volume of sales increased. Car
lot price advanced to above SOC per
100 pounds, a gain of about 10c from
recent low points. Roads have been
blocked by weather conditions for
short periods and haulings were re-
duced for that reason, but Maine car
lot shipments have held up better
than the movement from most other
States. The Association of Potato
Growers was attempting to establish
a price about 10c above prevailing
level by means of refusal by MEM
bers to sell for less than the stated
price. Prices and market conditions
in middle western producing sections
were much like those in the east, and
firmness prevailed at most far west |
ern potato shipping points. .,
. City markets mostly reported mod |
crate supplies but receipts were lin F,
tied at Boston despite average of sew /
eral carloads per day from Canada. |
The Canadian receipts, being of Sc
lected grade and quality, sell consid- |
erably higher than the-general run |
of stock, reaching recent top of |
$1.65 per 9O-pound sack. Jobbing
sales of Maine Green Mountains are
quoted in eastern markets at 90c to
$125 per 100 pounds. New York and
potatoes range 85c to
81. Chicago potato markets show a
firm trend with recent top of soc by
the carload. Sales of potatoes for
future delivery show small price
gains fully holding the advances
made early in the month.
Prices of sweet potatoes show a
few gains but the trend is somewhat
Sweet potatoes are in
moderate to liberal supply in city
markets and demand is slow. Prices
showed a slight disposition to ad-
vance at some points along with the
general potato market, but the price
evel showed no uniform trend. Vir-
sinia stock sold at 35 to 75c a bushel
m eastern markets. New Jersey po- i
.atoes sold at 75c to S110 in Phila- {
1elphia, Boston, and Pittsburgh. Vir- {
sinia White Vans brought 40 to 60c c
n Philadelphia. Maryland and New l
Jersey stock sold at 40c to 81 in five l
eastern markets. South Carolina 1

Porto Ricans ranged 81 to $1.15.
Onions Higher

I
The slowly rising price trend on
onions prevailing through the clos
ing months of 1881 has continued in
to the new year and further sharp
gains occurred the first ten days of
January. Western New York onions
advanced to a new top of $3.50 per
50-pOund sack in the Rochester dis
trict with active demand and a
strong market tone. Considering the
smaller production in the State this
season, shipments have held up bet
ter than might be expected. The
figures to date stand near $500 car
loads compared with nearly 5000
last season to date. The large mar
kets generally report moderate sup
plies. Track holdings have aver
aged about 100 cars in the twelve
leading markets daily during the
past two weeks. Demand has been
increasing to some extent during the
time of rising prices. New York
and Massachusetts yellow onions
have been selling in eastern cities at
So to $225 per so pounds. Some
choice stock exceeded this range.
Milford chronicle., 1932-01-15
Apple Shipments Increase

Shipments of apples showed some
increase after the first of the year,
but demand was fairly good and
some price changes slightly upward.
The gains applied chiefly to a few
varieties which are in limited supply
this season. Mcintosh again reached
top of $3.50 per barrel in New York.
Prevailing range on Baldwins was
S2.75 to So and Greetings $3.50 to $4.
Eastern Staymans sold up to $1.25
Der bushel in Boston, but brought
only Csc to 81 in Philadelphia, Bal
timore, and Washington. Most east
ern Grimes are in poor condition
now and sell at low prices. Not many
lots of eastern Yorks brought as
much as 81.
Milford chronicle., 1932-01-15
Produce Market Notes

Prices of many vegetables have
shown upward trend since the first
of the year Moderate advances Oc-
CURED on of the 10 leading kinds.
Shipments have been light for some
time past and the markets were i'll
position to respond to more confident
buying. Potatoes advanced to 10
cents per 100 pounds at numerous
shipping points from Maine to Michi-
gan. Most price changes were up
ward in producing sections and many
markets. Sweet potatoes shared the
rising trend to some extent.
Onions and cabbage continued the
upward swing of the month before.
Carrots are a little higher in north
ern and southern producing districts.
The celery market is a matter of
quality this season, but desirable
stock advanced in a few markets.
Lettuce is slightly lower in far west
ern producing sections. Apple mar
kets are irregular as for some time
past. The southern Stayman and
northern Greening and Baldwin
made some price gains. Carlot ship
ments Of most lines of fresh produce
continue light, even for the time of
year, but potato movement shows
increase since the rising price ten
deney began.

"You will know tree by its fruit"
says DIR. r. S. Stephens, optometrist,
and the people that eat the fruit
ought to be the judge of the tree.
The apple known as the eye, is a
very delicate organ. He has fitted
forty-two thousands pairs OF glasses
and he has had much experience
along this line of work.
You ask the people who wear his
glasses about the fruit of his labor
and you will see him when you need
anything in his line. He can grind
any lense you may need and has a
new line of frames of all styles.
You will find him at 219 South
State street, Dover.

Cabbage Prices Advance

The upward trend of the cabbage
market continued in early January
reaching new top prices at several
points, but country shipping points
in New York and Wisconsin showed
little further change. Top price for
bulk cabbage in the Rochester dis
trict was SIS per ton. A supporting
feature was the lightness of ship
ment from the South, but prices of
Texas cabbage lost little of the ad-
vance made at shipping points. Old
cabbage is in moderate supply and
in fair demand in most eastern mar
kets. Receipts of New York long
keeping stock brought $1S to $25 per
ton in New York, Boston, Philadel-
phia, Baltimore, and Pittsburgh, ad-
vancing about So the first week of
January in New York and Pitts
burgh. This stock sold as high as
S35 in some mid-western markets.
Sales per 100 pounds ranged 81 to
$125 in Washington, Cleveland, and
Detroit. Red cabbage reached $50
per ton in New York City. Dealers
in cabbage producing sections of
western New York were still paying
growers around $40 per ton for Dan
ish type cabbage.
Milford chronicle., 1932-01-15
Carrots Selling Better

Lighter production of carrots this
season is beginning to appear in a
stronger market position. Sales of
1O0-pound sacks recently exceeded
the dollar mark in the Rochester dis
trict. Before that time very little
business was reported above 90c.
Washed carrots in bushel baskets
and 50-pound sacks realized 70 to
Use. Carlot movement has slightly
exceeded that of last season to date,
but the crop is estimated much
smaller and holders feel encouraged
by recent developments. Prices are
firm in New York at $1.25 per 100
Some lots. brought $1.50 in
Boston, and Philadelphia quoted top
of $1.35. New southern carrots are
in light supply and sold as high as
$4 per crate in New York. The cell
cry market is irregular, mainly be-
cause of quality which is only fair
to ordinary on most eastern ship
ments.

irving 10 adjust things. Foot ball broad
casts Admittedly are among the most
nonuIar radio features during the Fall
Rroadcasters naturally are incensed
over the act. Beyond tnst, however,
they feel the schools are hurting them
selves by their action. They hold the
belief that the broadcasting OF run
ming accounts of games instills the de-
sire among listeners TO attend games,
and that radio is largely responsible for
the spllrt in the popularity OF foot ball
during recent years.
The schools which already have ruled
out foot ball broadcasting are Harvard,
yale. Princeton, Pennsylvania, Brown,
Pittsburgh, Army, Navy, Columbia, Syr-
anuse Dartmouth and Penn State. In
announcing the decision MAJ. p. B.
Fleming. graduate manager OF atnletics
at West Point and president OF the
association, said that colleges must not
overlook any opportunity to increase
receipts at games ut has been def
nitely established" he added, that
radio cuts into attendance"
Mai. Fleming declared the action was
taken reluctantly, but was agreed upon
unanimously because foot ball is the
only snort producing the money neces-
cary for the support of intercollegiate
athletics. He explained that the de-
cision prohibits broadcasting OF al
games played at the home stadiums oi
the IL schools, or under their jurisdic-
ton. during the forthcoming season.
From Chicago it is reported by Mai

OF the Western Conference, that the
Big Ten athletic directors are unani.
mously in favor of banning al foot Dali
broadcasting. The question viii be de-
cided at the National Collegiate Atm
letic Association meeting at Pasadena,
Calf, July % and 20.
Dlsagrees at NOtre Dame.
This view, however. Is inconsistent
with the sentiments expressed by Father
Mulcaire of Notre Dame. i feel" he
said, that those thousands from coast
to coast who have supported Notre
Dame in other years, when they could
afford to do so, should not be deprived
of the pleasure Of following the games
by radio now that they have become
victims of the depression. have never
felt that the gate receipts would be
materially increased by patronage Of
those who listened to the games over
the radio when tickets Of admission are
available"
BroadcaSters, moreover, cannot recon-
cile the views expressed by Mai. Fleming
with those Of other sports and enter
tainment groups. One broadcaster al
luded to the confession by the Madison
Square Garden Corporation that the
radio publicity given the Schmeling-
Sharkey heavyweight championship
bout bolstered attendance. Some 10000
people witnessed the fight, paying about
half million dollars.

BY ROBERT MACK.

Foot ball may be booted from the
ether waves altogether this Fall.
Through the Eastern intercollegiate
Association, IL leading universities in
the East already have banned foot ball
broadcasting, blaming 1t for the falling
of of attendance at games. This month
the Big 10 Western Conference will take
I'D the issue, and probably follow suit.
The Pacific group probably will be in
fiuenced by the action of the Eastern
