The start will see more stalls oc cupied on the three days, Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, to which the producers and the buying public have been accustomed since the establishment of the market 14 years ago, said Mr. Ayres. It la boned, however, he added, that the people of Eugene will so spresd their pur chases orer the week as to giTe each of 4he six days about an equal volume of business. Such a condition is expected to come about gradually as the people become accustomed to the market being open six days a week. The separate booths will not be permanently assigned at the present time, according to Mr. Ayres, but will be used to care for the producera who are not regular sellers on the market.

The balance of the cost of the buildine was met with a loan which was pain off from, the proceeds of stall rentals. The rapid firowlh of the city in the period beginning in UJ0 was reflected in the growth of business at the public market and the construction of the second unit of the Eighth avenue site was accomplished in 1925. This unit, build to the east of the first, housed 40 stalls in a 165 by 24 foot Bhed. Business men contributed $500, a loan for $1200 was flonted and the balance of $1000 was taken from market ren tal funds. A rearrangement of the market so as to provide for the con necting runway between the northern ends of the two units reduced the number of Malls to 76.

Vendors were made to share stalls and extra tables were placed in alley ways adding to the conges tion of the market.
