Shopping for food this week end
won't be quite as easy as you have
found 1t recently. as many items are
expected to prove very scarce. Even
produce shows gaps in its ranks
notably cauliflower, broccoli, cucum-
bers and green peas. Most greens
seem to be fairly plentiful, and also
In this category We find snap beans,
lettuce Of all kinds, tomatoes, green
peppers, new cabbage and very good
lima beans. Asparagus is of good
quality and some Of it still Is COM
ing In from New Jersey. Golden
bantam corn from Texas Is good but
the white variety Is poor in most
instances. There are plenty Of yell
low onions, beets, carrots and white
and yellow squash to be had, and
you'll also find nice eggplant,
radishes and spring onions.
The fruit hne-up is improving in
quantity-but. prices are, for the
most part, out of this world. Luxury
items are watermelons, Argentine
pears, sugar loaf pineapples and CAL
ifornia cherries. A bit more reason
able are mangoes regular" pine
apples, bananas and avocados. Few,
II any, peaches are expected this
week end. BlackberTies are high; so
are blueberries and huckleberries,
which have just come in. Straw
berries are least expensive, but still
cost too much for their medium
quality, In my opinion. Citrus fruits
from Florida are on the war1e, as the
last of the seasons crop begins toll
disappear from local bins. However
there are plenty of California Va
lencia oranges, some fair grape
fruit, and good lemons. Lines are
scarce.
Supplies of trying and stewing
chickens continue good, and Of
course eggs are flooding the mar
kets. You'll find plenty Of cottage
cheese about, for those cooling sum-
mer salads, and 1t seems to me that
q few more prepared cheese spreads
are seen around town than has
recently been the case.
Nice fish will be offered tomor-
rows shoppers, with most Of the
filleted variety out IN fun force, In
ciuding haddock, perch, founder and
cod. Cheapest and most plentiful
viii be crcakers, porgies, butter
fish. Boston mackerel, fresh trout,
carp, catfish and eeis. Higher In
price and bit scarcer are red snap
per, sea bass, founders, rockfish
ESQ good cold), and blue fish. The
shad season closes oficially today,
but dealers have 10 days OF grace
to clear out supplies, so you may
enjoy your old favorite that much
longer, If you wish. There are
plenty of CLAIMS, good Holsters from
Maine, lobster tails and crabmeat.
Little or no shrimp. Soft shell crabs
are very expensive, but OF fine|
quality, both jumbo and prime.
Over the meat picture we feel ve|
should draw q merciful veil. Most
of 1t has staged . complete disap-
pearing act, as you housewives know
too well. Pork is said to be the most
plentiful it's SO hot for pork
and there should be number Of

FIREMEN LAUDED
 FOR ALERTNESS
Vigilance Prevented More Serious Damage Marshal
 Tells Commissioners

Fire Marshal Dennis Lahey re- ported to the board of fire com- missioners yesterday on three dan gerous fires in the last month-at the Court Hotel on Leavenworth street, the apartment block at 57 Center stret, and at 65 Bank street.
 Marshal Lahey wrote if it had not been for the exceptional work of Chief Cavanaugh, Deputies Cam pion and Bloomfield, Capt. Joseph Kelley, and the rank and file of the department, all of these fires would have caused serious damage. AS it was, the losses were minor, com- pared to what might have occurred if it had not been for their prompt and effective action, he wrote.
 Fire Chief Cavanaugh submitted letter to the board praising the alertnesS, and vigilance of Patrol man Ralph Belloisy in discovering the fire at 65 Bank street on Nov 30, and Summoning firemen in time to prevent a serious conflagration. The board forwarded the letter to the police superintendent.
 The board received a check of $25, and a letter of appreciation from William H Green of 117 Bank street in connection with his res- cue by firemen when he fell two stories through the skylight of his building recently. It also received a check of $20 from Armand Le- Clerc, 80 Oak street, in appreciation for the aid given by the fire depart ment in extinguishing a fire at his store, Nov. P. Both checks were ordered turned into the firemen's pension fund.

Dust off those Christmas orna- tmerts and decorations and haul them down from the attic, for all Indications point to plentiful sup ply of Christmas trees in Water bury for the coming season.
 Local Christmas tree wholesalers and retailers today told the Demo crat reporter that some shipments are already here with assurances of plenty more to arrive.
 This year they will be sold at stabilized prices with wholesale prices probably ranging around SIPS to $50 each", one dealer stated. s'The retail price will naturally range well upward, but not too high"
 Although Christmas is three weeks away few orders have already been received, it was di closed by most marketers, with the prospects of the market to come healthy and sound.
 This is in contrast to last years season when many spectators and overnight operators entered the field and were caught flat-foot- cd trying to control the market, re- Bulting in thousands of trees be. lg unsold and subsequently, burned. Many legitimate dealers O., years stand 1g, found themselves inno- gently caught between the price lacking operation and suffered healvt, also.
 National sources have disclosed that the Christmas tree supply is plentiful and any shortage resulting will likely be an artifically created one intended to create high price market. Officials warned against

early buying at extremely high retail or wholesale prices-"for you may get stuag when the buying spread becomes evened off and prices Stab- illze."
 Last years market debacle when so many trees failed to sel' was en> gendered mainly by the spectators figuring they could create the high priced market because of the ample buying power of the working people. Fol some reason or other, the same spectators would probably pay well if yo knew the answer, the major ity of the people refused to pay the excessive prices and the trees did not move.
 It is possible there is even more money these days, within certain brackets, but a few of the dealers felt confident today that it would have little effect on any change over from last season.
 We want everyone to have a tree, one spokesman said. lacking of prices kills the holida; spirit and your legitimate Christmas tree deal CTS won't attempt it."
 This reporter saw few of these trees today and 4.ostalgic memories returned with their pungent piney odor and the crisp rustic of the needles. It's an overShadoWed Christmas in so many ways, this third one of Americas war, but all its traditions will be maintained by the people of Waterbury just as the traditions of freedom and liberty which are comprised of symbols like Christmas trees, are being perpet- uated by the stale, lonely battles of our fighting men overseas.
