prea to Mar ketfor Sunday Turkeys Present a Hard Prob- | lom for the Housewife to Solve. By Charlotte R. Bangs (Founder of the ome Market Clab) TURKEY fs the magic word this week. fers to the American bird whose {co at this season of the year affects many hearts and homes throughout @ whole country, especially Greater New York. The retailers are waiting expectantly, even anxiously, for they know not what. The housewife wonders, too, But the wholesalers KNOW. The warm Oetobder weather invites out- oor life for turkeys; they aren't even fattened for city markets, but are being a kept for Christmas table feasting, when more solid flesh te om their bones and scales tip downward more heavily than now. This is not the worst, however, for New York Btate, which demands 80 many turkeys, actually contributes very tew. Turkeys for next week are siated for tke following prices: At wholesale, 2 to @ cents a pound; at retail, $2 to 8 cents a pound. This means good grade. The only way to clroumvent these high prices will be ‘to screw a couple of chickens together and roast them as one fowl (with vivid imagination), to buy a dozen or a bar- Tel of turkeys at wholesale price—or to do without. The two former plans @eem best. Buying co-operatively would mean that one housekeeper could get eleven others to agree to buy a turkey, weight stated. The dozen so bought means & lower price for each housewife than if each buy individually. Nuts, dates, &c., ean be purchased the same way, also pineapples, oranges, grape fruit. There should be one delivery point and email, 4f any, express charge for the turkeys if Jeft at a store. Have the wholesaler at- tach @ ticket on each turkey stating its exact weight, which of course includos’ fet, head, &c, The housewives should give thetr representative buyer cash t2 cover purchase—a wholesaler sells only for cash when dealing with @ co-opera- tive buyer. It 1s worth while knowing that best smoked hams at 17 cents a pound, best bacon at 14, 16 and 22 cents can be bought at wholesale in not tre- mendous quantity. Sausage Meat—So many varieties and prices abound tn this food product, it is tmely to relate that truly good sausage, made from actual pork, cannot be sold ! ee ee at wholesale for less than 17 or 18 cents a pound. At retail the price ts from 5? to 26 cents. Another grade of sausage | keepa two weeks. In every large market the matter of cranges for Thankagiving week has | been held over pending settlement of the | trouble between freight handlers and wholesalers over Carloads of California |fruite, This ts now adjusted. A new |lot of oranges in market at this time means reduced prices for this week end and next week California oranges bring @ better price than Floridas at present, the latter's season being not yet in full swing. Pine- apples are plentiful and excellent in quality this week. Grape fruit are en Declaily fine and cheap. It is no uncom- mon sight to see a wholesaler split a bax of each for cash consumer sale. NUTS—Only hickory nuts are sold b; the bushel; all others go by poun Weight In a bag of 60, 100, 20 pounds, It ts important to select this year’s nuts. Because nuts may be. a few cents aheaper tn one place than another, Jo not be too speedy in buying the cheap- est; they may not be good nuts. There are grades even in nuts. The following takje, shows relative prices, wholesale and retall, Delivery charges should be 20 cents for every 100 pounds.

Cheese—State grade, 16, 17, 18 centa a pound per grade, Cheese made from skimmed milk 1s sold for as low as 8 cents wholesale. Orange County sends some good “cream cheese” to market, but no great quantity. It retells at 12 cents a package. Cheese at retail is 20 ‘to 26 cents @ pound. These prices re- Imain about the same in every market and all retail districts in the city. Eggs—There is something very wrong with all the hens.
