planned by the market committee.
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. Mr. Ayres said that ha ex
pects all of these s!Us to be In use
during the opening days of the new
market. ,

WHOLESALE MARKET
What the vegetable and small
fruits produce industry means to
growers of this vicinity is demon
strated in the extensive business
carried on by James Gardens who
are regular sellers at the Produc
ers' Public market. . Their farm is
located on Goodpasture island.
They are opening the first local
wholesale vegetable market ever
Conducted in Eugene, the place to
be opened in the new public market
building. ' The wholesale vegetable
market is to be maintained in the
southwest end of the new market
buiWirg. With the JameB gardens
are a number of other producers in
the wholesale market. Cold storage
equipment has been put in for the
market. James Gardens also conduct
a retail stall in the building.
James Gardens have been selling
on the public market for the past
seven years. Besides their business
at the public market they also con
duct a large wholesale vegetable
business of their own, trucking stuff
to various cities and communities in
neighboring districts.
Ihey have CO acres under cultiva
tion for raising vegetables and amall
fruits.
William James is general manager
for the James Gardens wholesale
market, their retail market, and the
geperal wholesale business. Others
in the firm are F. B. James and C.
W. James. .1. A. Morgan is to be
manager in the office at the public

provided space for 50 stalls, extend
ing in a double row through the 165
by 30 foot structure. 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.
Move Is Forced
With from 00 to as high as 115
producers bringing produce to the
market space was soon nt a premium
during tfie out-of-doors arrowing sea
son. Vendors were made to share
stalls and extra tables were placed
in alley ways adding to the conges
tion of the market. Agitation for
larger and more modern quarters
wai started about two years ago and
came, to a climax early in 1020.
After diseusiona pro and con. the
question of moving to a new site or
retaining the old was settled by a

The selection of the Broadway

West Broadwav association, was an
nounced on May 1 of this year, by the
market committee. A slight dissen
sion of opinions as to the new loca
tion waa disposed of and a vote of
thanks wa accorded the donors of
the new site and the market com
mittee at a banquet on May 28 at
which about 200 producers were
guests of the market committee.
The new market wilt be conducted
along the same general rules as has
governed the old, according to Mai
ketmaster Ayres. Fruits and vege
tables offered for sale is the' stalls
must have been raised on ground
owned or leased by the producer. In
the case of meats and poultry, the
animals must have been in the pos
session of the producer for at
least 00 days prior to being killed.
The marketing of gooda by associa
tions of producers will be permitted
as in the past.
No raise in the rental on stalls
from the 25 cents a day rate which
has been in effect since the start of
the market will be made for the time
being, the committee announces. Ex
ceptions to the rules as to sales will
be made in the case of the store
rooms which are by commercial con
cerns offering for sale food stuffs
not in competition with the local
producers and making the market a
real shopping center.
