The opinion of many men wWhose ideas are respected was that would be the bottom price for potatoe Reports came from large producing areas that farmers refused to dig their crop the then low prices, and some potatoes were withheld for some time.

A great change occurred in the to- mato crop. Ten days ago tomatoes sola at 20 cents per pound. Since then they have dropped to 5 cents per pound, and the big problem is disposing of the crop. Now that many people are at the shor consumption is not up to its pos ume. There is hardly any occ: despair at the tomato price, how $1 per 25 pound basket for the re of the season is a price which will yield good returns. This crop also was being retailed by farmers to some extent daur- ing the last week. This is the period at which lettuce peas and beets show signs of scarceness Only a few growers are bringing in let- tuce. To. get a crop at this season re- quires foresight, as it is> not a hot weather crop unless nurtured in an ex- | tremely careful fashion. Peas ve practically disappeared from the local market. Most Connecticut cities have peas shipped in from Long Island, where a cooler climate is conducive to pea pro- duction at this season. Muckleberries Are Plentiful.

Lovers of sweet corn may now have their fill of choice varieties at moderate prices. Local prices are 50 per ceqt. be- low those of New Haven and Harttord. Farmers usually specialize in a few crops but sweet corn is an exception—all of them seem to grow considerable. There is a sentimental attachment to maize, and tb augment this there is a good de- mand and fair profit. The meat prices have dropped a few cents per. pound when the whole carcass is purchased. This affects the consumer to a very small degree only, except in the case of chicken. The demand for beef has fallen off somewhat, while that<for veal and lamb has increased. All butch- ers complain that consumers are order- ing nothing but choice cuts, leaving a great portion of the carcass unsold. This is a factor in the high cost of meats, he- cause the surplus turned over to a fer- tilizer plant brings much smaller price than the average rate per pound paid for the whole animal. This is made up by higher prices for choice cuts. Active demand for eggs, berries, let- tuce, peas, beets. Moderate demand for sweeet corn, car- rots, peppers. Slow demand for squash. matoes, beans. rabbage, to- Market Conditions. Today saw another drop in the potato market; 11-peck bazs sold from $4.75-5. This is $1.75 per bushel.
