Delaware Food Market
Report

It's back to normal after two big
Holiday week-ends, with prices ad-
vancing cn many foods. The effect
of cold weather in Florida is still
showing up in the rising prices on
fresh vegetables. Lettuce is up &c
a head. Quality needs to be checked
carefully since there are many
heads that are very light in weight
for size, and a loG OF leaf damage
has been seen Egg plant has jump
ed back to 15c a h.; so has the
price of sweet potatoes gone. back
up to the pre-holiday price. Cauli-
flower and broccoli are both higher
in price. The only vegetable which
is the exception is tomatoes. Car
ton tomatoes dropped as much as
SC in many stores this weekend.
Florida citrus fruit is becoming
more plentiful and in some instan-
ces the quality is better. Prices,
however, are bit higher than nor
NAL for this time of year. On the
average, oranges are selling at 49c
a dozen; tangerines, 39c a dozen;
Milford chronicle., 1961-01-06

and grapefruit about lie each.
Lemons are also up in price. selling
for 60c a dozen this week. Many of
the oranges remain small to middle
size and a large per cent seem to
contain many seeds. Flavor still
has much room for Improvement
This can also be said for many of
the grapefruit on the market.
Egg prices are on the rise again.
Grade A large eggs have advanced
&c on the dozen. Grade A medium
size eggs are also up &c dozen.
The price spread between these two
sizes is about 10c which once
again makes Grade A medium size
eggs the best buy this week. When
buying eggs, be sure to select those
that are stored in refrigerated un-
its, since room temperature soon
lowers the quality of eggs.
Thrifty shoppers will find fresh
pork one of the better buys this
week-fresh loin and fresh ham
are two cuts to check. There is
plenty of bacon and sausage. with
reasonable prices. Leg-of-lamb is
also on sale with prices starting at
soc a lb. Check these beef items
also as some stores are featuring

think we are all a little disap-
pointed that this country is as
civilized as 1t is. We have an
Anchorage Community Choir, N
Anchorage Symphony Orchestra
an Alaska Musical Festival and
now Alaska Methodist University.
When We first arrived in this area,
we searched fruitlessly for the
University. Two months ago. we
attended the open house of a very
contemporary structure glowing
in beautiful colors, modern lines,
m p | cit e educational facilities.
and excellent dormitory quarters.
Bill and | received an invitation
to attend the Inauguration of Rev.
Fred McGinnis as President of
the ANU. 1t was the most i'm
pressive ceremony ever held at
the Sidney Lawrence Auditorium,
with professional including dignit-
aries from throughout the United
States, including our Governor
Egan and representatives from
nearly every college or university
in the lower 48. However, the I'm
iversity of Connecticut or the I'm
iversity of Delaware wasn't rep
resented. Oh, well, Bill and l were
there representing both, although
unofficially.
Last evening, after a long meet
ing, l walked for a few minutes
in the crisp cold air of the first
day of December. There were no
stars for an ice fog filtered over
the trees. The very stiffness made
me feel as though l were in a
magic spell. Where but in Alaska
could we see, as we did recently,
t h e moon shining brightly
through a heavy snow storm. We
miss the sunny beaches and warm
water of Delaware, but Bill and
the kids say the glacier water of
the lakes around here are invigo-
rating. Cranky, I'm not that much
of a sourdough yetD l still gaze
in awe at the Northern Lights,
| but, by the way of continued con-
trast, l gazed in awe at the vapor
trail of the first Nike Missile
ever found in Alaska. We thrill at
the sight of moose, but we have
also learned to regard them as
! food as well as curiosities.
We Alsakans plan early for
Christmas each year and we're
certain to have white one So our
thoughts go to each of you dear
ones so far away in physical mil
es, yet so close in our hearts and
thoughts. May you all have a
deeper insight into the true spirit
and meaning of Christmas. So
that wherever you may be, you
will know the warmth and inner
peace that the season brings to
all.
Merry Christmas, and God bless
you.

We would like to pass this most
interesting letter on to their many
friends in and around Bridgeville
The letter is as follows:
Greetings From The Land of
Make-Believe
Dear Friends:
Now that we have completed
the full circle and are approach
ing our second Christmas in Alas
ka, it seems more than ever the
Land of Make-Believe". Oftimes
when l write the words, Anchor

really true!

again this year. The contrasts in

Local level, for did not both
President-elect Kennedy and pres

She added two more blue ribbons
Milford chronicle., 1961-01-06

one or more of them: chuck and
rib roasts and some steaks.
The outlook for food in the New
Year, 1861, is as follows: Supplies
will be little larger. but these
will be equalized by the increase
of population. Consumer demand
for food is expected to remain
strong. Much of the income of con-
sumers is expected to remain at a
high level. With food supplies and
demand little different from last
year, retail food prices this year
are expected to average close to
those of 1860.
