Show I , Mr. Melfzer On Meet Your Real Estate , Dear Mr. Meltzer: i should know better, but don't so you will ; apparently : hate to tell me. Twice within the year, smart alecky college : freshmen have cheated me out i of rent, t I operate a rooming house i near a college. Most of my tenants are students. During this year, two freshmen ten-- 1 ants flunked out of school and ileft owing me rent and with : six months left on their lease. : i was told there is nothing I : can do because they are min- or (under 21). Fine minors : both were over 6 feet tall and :weighed over 200 pounds. Mrs. H.L. ft ;: The criteria dif- minors from ad- ;ults is not based cm height or weight, but on age. In most ''states, an individual achieves maturity at 21. However, it varies from state to state. : Anyone renting to a minor faces Hie potential problem experienced by our correspondent. Knowledgeable real ; estate operators overcome the i problem by a simple expedient :As a condition for renting to a minor, they insist that the : parents also sign the lease. jiWith this simple act the barn Poor is closed and there is .vno way in getting out of the lease. A standard bathtub long, 30 inches wide and 16 inches deep. This is adequate even for a 200 pounder like myself. Sometimes in an effort to save (or cheat) a little, a plumber will install bathtubs only 14 Inches deep and even as shallow as 12 inches. Tell the plumber that the trouble is caused not because you are too round, but because the tub is too flat. Mr. Meltzer welcomes your letters and comments. Unfortunately he is unable to enter into personal correspondence with readers, but will attempt to answer as many letters as possible through his column. N. D. "Pete" ELECT nlliyWIHrd For purchaser.

The streets designated for marketing would change when property owners would complain and there were no re- gulations for the same farmer to have the same space each day. It became increasingly difficult for a farmer to get a spot on the designated curb; so difficult that farmers were leaving their farms as early as noon on the day before to better their chances for a desirable market spot. From time to time the city would pass ordinances to irritate Hie farmers. One such ordinance made it unlawful fora farmer to unhitch his horse to take it to the feed yard. The retail grocers also succeeded In getting an ordinance passed whereby a farmer-- " could only sell to retail storekeepers and peddlers. This was later declared unconstitutional. The farmers bended together for their own protection and formed Salt Lake Gardeners and Fruit Growers Association. They began looking for a place where they could rent permanent stalls for a small fee. The final result was Growers Market, an area with covered cement stalls running east and west, flanked to Hie north and south with warehouses. But Hie small garden farmer and Hie small grocer are quickly disappearing with the day when every family stored its own fruits and vegetables. Industry and have replaced the old Salt Lake -- clared. But the centralized market with the 6 A.M. whistle was still better than the street market where the farmers would ".bring Hie produce to the city to sell in open wagon boxes.

Potatoes would be measured out in home woven bushel baskets; the cabbage heads would roll from Hie back of Hie truck and the farmer and buyer would ga would haggle, reminiscent of farms.

Today bananas are shipped in bunches already in cardboard boxes. Ethyl me gas is used to make them rippen faster. Truckers of produce is another growing phase of the produce business. A trucker comes to the market with orders from wholesalers. He goes around to Hie individual farmers and orders produce to till the orders. The farmers send the produce to the specified warehouse at the market and the trucker loads the produce from the warehouse on his truck to deliver to the wholesalers. The market has had its ups and downs. But it has filled the needs of the farmers and the community and continues to do so. all but Family farming ended during the war as farm children found other Jobs, and those who stayed in farming had to buy more machinery and more acreage. Chain stores proved too great a competition for the small grocer and forced many of the small grocers out of business. The chain stores had their own market areas. The centers. Valley shopping Grand Central markets, etc. all used to buy their produce from Grower's market before they were bought by Mayfair. No longer need a buyer risk death in a human stampede to get Hie choicest produce, but there is still plenty of market excitment and activity at 3, 4 or 5A.M. Monday and Thursday mornings.
