i ) FARMERS’ MARKET . TEST FOR VOICES Garuso's Successor May Now Be Warbling “Strawb'rees” “Potato-o0-oes, cabbages, cel-el-el- ‘ery, tom-a-atoes. Yes, we even have bananas.” It is New Britain's curb- stone market, which meets regular- Iy every morning, but not at the curbstone any more. since the neighbors, fire depart- ment, officials, police department and others complained that the mar- ket was a nuisance on Commercial street. It has been moved around from one place to it seems to have come to a final Toosting but not resting place, where -there is neither peace, quiet, rest nor harmony. Everything is ,perfectly law abid- ing and peaceful insofar as overly cnthusiastic competihg hucksters might be inclined to indulge in physical violerce in disputes over a customer. Patrolman Thomas C. Dolan, who starts at 5 a. m. as boss of the market and winds up in the atternoon as fingerprint expert in the detective bureau, sees to it that every man is on his good behavior. There are 54 stalls set aside for the marketmen. The market place is in an open space in the rear of the Hotel Bronson and the Mohican market. Entrance is on East Main street. armers pay $2 a month for the privilege of usiny the stalls. Local jobbers pay $3 u month and out of town jobbers pay $5. The market consists of farmers, hucksters, peddlers and jobbers. They begin to arrive at 5 o'clock in the morning and by 9 practically everyone has sold out and gone home. When they arrive they drive into their respective stalls and im- mediately unload their goods, dis- played to the best advantage. Nothing is sold in retail quanti- ties. Everything is wholesale, but the householder has the opportunity ot buying at wholesale prices. The carly rising housekeeper catches the carly bargain. Many of the pur- chasers are retail dealers and huck- sters who re-sell the produce to those who do not get to the market. The minimum prices are those charged by the farmers, while the other dealers in adjoining stalls maintain more of a uniform price. While prices are not so far below what the same goods can be pur- chased for in stores later in the day as to be sensational, the following list taken at random by a Herald reporter yesterday morning, is a good indication of how things are sold: The prices are not the mini- mum, rather more of an average. Fancy pears, imported from Cali- fornia, were displayed at $4 for a box of 110. A bushel basket was offered for $3.00. " ‘Seedless grapes from California sold for $1.50 a box. Jersey peaches brought crate. A bushel basket of native peppers sold for $1.50. Native tomatoes in half bushel baskets brought from 7ic to $1.00 a basket. Half bushel baskets of apples sold for 75 cents to $1.00. Green corn on the cob sold 100 for $2.25 to $2.50. Beats sold for 40 cents a dozen. Carrots sold for 40 cents a dozen bunches, with four in a bunch. Cucumbers brought $1.50 to $1.75 for a bushel basket. Lettuco prought $2.50 for 25 Flor- ida headsYand $1.50 for 24 native Tieads. Spinach brought $1.25 a bushel. Celery sold for $1.50 to $1.75 dozen. Potatoes brought from 75 cents a bushel for seconds to $1.25 for firsts. Cabbake sold for $1.50 for a dozen four to six pound heads. The market has its appeal, If one were to judge by the purchasers v ‘terday, to the older generation. Young married housewives were not so conspicuous as were those of a generation ahead. Older women came with hand wagons, toy express wagons, baby carriages, bags and baskets. They saw, bought and car- ried away. Competition was keen, and the marketmen were not at all averse to butting into a competitor’s conversa- tion and stealing a prospect. Spec- tators strolling down the street were solicited for purchases, ~One man opped the reporter and asked of green peas $2.50 a a ‘“What are you, a buyer, a spectator | or a speculator? He was told “speculator,” said re- porter having speculated in three stalks of celery. But throughout the whole array of seeming confusion, there actually .is no confusion. Each man is in his place, each man pays his fee at the end of the month for his allotted stall; a blue print of the stalls with the name of each man written there- in is kept in a small office on the grounds. Not a truck comes in or a team goes out, but Patrolman Dolan is there to be sure he knows what is going on. Trucks are coming and going, backing in and pulling out. The old fashioned farmer’s teamn of two horses seems to have _gone, and modern trucks take place. A few local peddlers still stick to the horse and wagon, but “hay burners” are very scarce at the market.

LURE OF ADVENTURE INHITCH HIKING Economical Transportation Also Kppeals to Thrilty “Thambers” There are two sides to every argu- ment, even to that being waged over the hitch-hiking nuisance. The mo- torists's viewpoint has been set forth frequently and at length. That of the “bummer” has received less attention, and the person who “thumbs” his way along the high- ways is generally looked down upon as a contemptible parasite seeking {to gain something for nothing by imposing upon others. The hitch-hiker has a defense which he frequently offers. Strange- ly enough, this is not always, as might be supposed, the economic ex- cuse that by begging rides he can g0 to places otherwise beyond his | means. It is generally the lure of adventure, the attraction of the un- certain, which is placed foremost in 1easons put forth for the practice. This is the case with college boys, particularly. They beg their way to and from college despite the pres- ence of railroad fare in their pock- ets, and they enlarge upon the habit by going to big games played by their college teams and by mak- ing trips to resorts in the summer. This type will frequently use hitch-hiking only as a supplement | to railroad trips, begging auto rides until their time grows short and then, if motorists prove blind to their signals, finishing the journey by rail. The adventure along the road is most appealing and has the preference, but the more pro- saic method of travel is resvited to if the romantic variety fails. Some older men have things all | mapped out in detall and ° have | figured out systems for cheap trans- portation. As an example, there is a man in a nearby town who makes frequent trips to New York and other large cities. He has the train fare from certain neiglborhood cities and the likelihood of securing rides to those cities figured out, and | he saves a great deal of money by riding to them a la bum and then catching the train for his destina- tion, the auto transportation acting {as a feeder and fare-reducer. In this way he is enabled to take in all the shows, fight and other events in the hig cities. Experienced “bummers” have motorists more or less classified ac- cording to probability of securing | rides. speed of driving, likely gen- sity, and other important mat- ters. No really good thumb expert will waste time on a crowded car or one containing a young couple, for instance, while a flivver or a stowly moving driver is likely to be passed up in the hope that a larger car or a speedier operator will come along soon. Then the way usually able to pass the car he ne- glected and, in the end, save time. Can “Spot” Agreeable Driver One college man lving in this city says that he can tell whether or not the driver will stop as soon as the driver himself can. There is | some indefinable action or appear- |ance of the motorist which acts as | 'an almost infallible tip and tells the would-be passenger whether or not to continue his thumbing motions. | There are some lonely drivers who lare so glad of company that they are looking for hitch-hikers and will even stop at trolley poles to ask waiting people if they want rides. These people like company and treat their passengers well. Others, prob- | ably with boys and girls of the | own, like young people and pick up college students without hesi tion, staking them {o swmptuous dinners at times if the trips of driver and passenger coincide for a long distance. Once in a while some other col- loge hoys, more fortunately equipped | with a car, happen along, but these arc not always good for rides, and at times they will even turn down recognized college mates. A couple | of college girls are much more like- Iy to pick up a pair of fellows who | 1ook as if they went to college— and by no means does “necking” re- | sult from every such pick-up. | Some motorists, even after they | hve picked up a “bummer,” prove unpleasant to their guests. The lat- ter naturally expects to repay their | running | { hosts by smokes, into wa for | other small helps, but |ists demand these things offering de stands food, or some auto- 50 per- emptorily that their commands are | Most hitch- carried out unwillingly. likers offer help in case of trouble, hut motorists are prone refuse them, believing they can do the job better and more swiftly without interference. Make Excuses and Icave Some motorists turn out to he | nervous chaps and shy at every passing car, and some are reckless fellows who tear along, just miss- ing every pole and auto and keep- ling the passenger’s hair vertical In the former case the hitch-hiker lis likely to make some excuse and leave as soon as possible, but most lof them are game enough to sf with the speeders. Another pestiferous sort of motor- ist is the fellow who seizes upon | the hitch-hiker as a mental punch- ing bag and promptly unburdens his [ whole life history and all his trou- | bles or bores him with inconsequen- tialities or questions. Then there is the man who i§ not sure of his way—or is too which amounts to the same thing. In the former case he expects the guest to airect him, while in the lat- ter he wanders far off the rohd and usually leaves the hitch-hiker far from where he wants to go, on a | titt1e-travelled road, with slight | prospects of a second hitch. say that their prac- tire | 0| | Tapered and tempered steel tubing. sure, | tice 18 much easier in daylight than after dark, ascribing this to the fact that the driver can see them more quickly and can size them up better than at night. Hitch-hiking after dark is a tough proposition, but it can be done with luck. As said above, these hitch-hikers defend their method of travel. And there are some who even defend, on grounds of expediency, the practice of deserting a motorist with a blow- out and grabbing a second ride frors some other car which passes by.

Mrs. Waits was arrested on her arrival from England on the lner President Roosevelt. The warrant sald that “inspired by the devil and without the fear of God before her eyes,” she poured acid on Louis Fisher, with the result that he “languished and died.” The woman was held pending the arrival of Fisher's body and papers in the case from London where Mrs. Walts was said in cable advices to have been exonerated in the death. Upon arrival here she stated that sbe had not always been a steward- ess but was formerly an active worker for woman suffrage, LARGE FIELD IN AMATEUR TOURNEY Yoo Elm, Watts and Gunn to Megt Still Gompetition BY JIMMY POWERS ew York, Aug. 20—*"Step right golf show on earth! “See Bobby Jones, wonder-boy, the super-man, the stoopendous | scintlllating star of the links! “See the fat ones, the skinny ones | the tall ones, the short ones, ete.” The ballyhoo is on. Thrills are ahead. You can almost picture the phantom figure of “Nifty” Miller of “The Barker” Iuring his gallery to Minnikahda's rolling prairies. A succession of amazing feats by | recent weeks promises a national amateur championship next month | that will surpass all others for spine tingling. Bobby Jones' achievement fin again winning the British open in record breaking figures overshad- ows everything, of course. It brings assurance, furthermore, to his friends who were bitterly disappoint | ed by his downfall in the American open. Mainy a tear was shed at the supposed passing of the world's greatest medal player. He's lost his grip; he’s shot his bolt—those were the whispered comments now hush- ed. Now Jones' was not a lonesome achievement among the amateurs. His protege, Watfs Gunn, gave a Erilliant exhibition, capable of winning any match play champion- ship, when he battered young Ro- land Mackenzie to earth in the finat of the national intercollegiates. He also annexed his state title during idle moments. Those two victorles proved Gunn is a golfer in his own right—not a shadow of his famous pal. They proved it was no flukey streak that brought him gloriously to the finals at Oakmont fwo years ago. Gunn, in that championship, gave Jess Sweetser a terrific beating. It is too bad Jess will not get a chance to reverse the verdict at Minnekah- da. for his health limits hint to 18 holes a day. George Von Elm will he in tip- top shape. The clash between Jones and Von Elm will he worth travel- ing half a continent to see. The strutting grenadier deserved his 1926 triumph over the Atlanta wiz- ard. He will once more be the hope of the far west which is seek- ing the 1928 amatenr tournament site. George Voight, provided he can clear his name of hometown charges and bickerings, will be watched. The sporting element, always look- ing for an overnight flash to upset the dope, will keep their eyes glued upon the sensational Washington {she will live aff % el golfers during ) ., cn here was held as a sort of | marksman. There is no question but what amateur golf is getting classy in this country. Business among the simon-pures is looking up. The boys are no chumps—as many a pro who lost his shirt betting in a friendly mixed foursome will sadly tell you. Only one finishing touch is neces- sary to make the week-end at Min- nekahda a riotous success. That would be the presence of Edwin H. Haley, the hitherto unknown young American who all but upset the blinking English tournament this summer. If he can be induced to make a visit home this fall Amer- fcan fans are in for a rare golfing treat. Even as it is, the affair is going to be some picnic.
