O. ism it h. marl: et master, has arranfcrd for keepi the market open every day i n the week ejp-ept Sunday. At present the market is running run-ning on alternate days. Today the con- , tinuous operation will hejjin. Thursday and .Saturday of this week the west side market will he operated, and thereafter it will be kept open Tuesdays, Thursdays Thurs-days and Saturdays. M r. Smith said yesterday that the charge made by the Growers' exchange that only peddlers patronize the city markets was absurd. He said that there were forty-rive actual producers from the farms. on the markets last Tuesday, and that the number is increasing steadily. We started out abont bix weeks ago with five or six wagonloads of produce, but the market has proven itself to be the medium, needed to bring the producer pro-ducer and consumer into direct contact, and is growing steadily. More and more farmers are coming to market every dav and we have no- doubt but that it is filling a popular demand from both the consumer and the producer. |
