are at 20 cents and choice grades are
higher. ' ' .
Vegetables Continue Stronger
The vegetable market will be strong
from now on and will be so for some
time to come. But the shortage In
.fresh vegetables will be temporary
tonly on account of the rains In th,e

warm weather following the frost.
Onions are said to be In a bad con
dltlon on account of the blight of last
summer. The stock Is just now being
assorted and the price Is remaining at
75 cents per hundred pounds F. O. B

People will differ on politics, religion and most every other subject
under the sun, but there is ono thing that ninety-nine epaple out
or every hundred agrpe on, that is; the superiority of
Electric Lights
over all other kinds. The quentton naturally arises then: "Why are
not all home lighted by electricity?" The .answer Is simple. Some
people who are not familiar with lighting progress still thlak that
electrle lights are expensive. We are ronvaclng people dally ef
(be economy of electricity for lighting. Will you (Ire us a chance
to prove It to your satisfaction?
