was feared, and this week the market
Is overstocked with berries, selling on
Tuesday at 75 cents per crato. Many
of the strawberry plants are tilled
with berries yet to ripen, and it is
presumed that berries will be in the,
market by the midle of July.
Raspberries are ripening, and on
Monday the first raspberries of the
season were brought into the local
market, and brought a wholesale price
of three boxes for 25 cents, but the
demand was so great that thero was
not enough to supply the demand.

er this year than that of last, and

berries, nnd always demand a good
price. R. O. Pierce, who resides on
Falls View, says that the crop of these
berries will be the largest he has ever
had. Mr. Pierce's vines are heavily
laden with the fruit, which is rapidly
taking on color. He has taken special
care of his berry vines, and the fruit
they bear find a ready market.
The farmers have no fear of the
present warm weather cooking the
ground in which the oats and wheat
are planted, as the grain has taken on
sufficient growth so as to shade the
ground.
There is a good crop of hay through

Two Succeeding Reports of Sams In
stitution Show Peculiar Differences.
A comparison of the reports of the
municipal electric light plant of Alle
gheny for the years 1904-05 and 1905-00
reveals one of the most barefaced at
tempts to deceive the public that has
yet come to our notice. The managers
of this plant had deemed It necessary
to show a lower cost for street lights
than was paid by the ndjacent city of
Pittsburg to a private company. Up
to 1004-05 this had been accomplished
by omitting the charges for water,
lost taxes, part of the Interest and
some niiuor Items and by charging on
ly 5 per cent for depreciation. In that
year they showed a "cost" of $83.44.
At that time, however, the charge
for street lights In Pittsburg was re
duced from $00 to $70 a year.
In order to meet this bona fide re
duction on the part of the Pittsburg
company the item of depreciation was
omitted from the next report of the
Allegheny plant, and a "cost" of $65.64
was thus shown. This would have
been bad enough, but the matter was
made worse by this statement, which
appeared above the table of costs:
"The following charges cover the mat
ter completely." This statement, which
is false, as shown by previous reports
of the same plant, has been repealed
In subsequent reports.
While this is an extreme example of
official deceit, It Is only a little more
brazen than scores of Blmllar reports
which are being put out annually os
tensibly to give the citizens of various
cities Information In regard to their
municipal plants, but the real object
of1 which to prevent their knowing
how expensive Is municipal manage
ment compared with the average prices
obtained by contract with private
companies.

The New Cold
Fillings
We never have to tell you that
"your teeth are to soft to hold
Gold Killings." We mastered
that difficulty long ago.
We put Gold Fillings in those
so-called "Soft Teeth" that do
not come out. Our Gold Fill
ings, no matter how large,
cannot come out when put in
by our new process. They are
solid as rocks and strong as
iron. Call and see them.
