A flood of country produce poured into the four markets to-day, begin- ning béfore daylight and not ending until every available spot for a wagon or truck was taken. Fourteen wag- ons were at Fort Lee ferry, nine at the Third avenie market, five at Queensboro Bridge and four at Man-| hattan Bridge. More are expected from Long Island farms during the| day, but unless those now there have old out there will be no room, for hundreds of peddlers have brought in their stands and are making eager| use of the free space. Prices are as low as at any tlme this week, and hundreds of women who have neglected the markets | heretofore came in when they learne) to-day that a delivery service had been installed by the city at all mar- | kets except Manhattan Bridge. Vestigators believe that the pur- chasers to-day will exceed by many thousands the number of any pre- vious day. Board of Health inspectors and in- veatigators from tho Department of Weights and Measures are stattonad in every market to see that no bad food or produce is sold and that the weights and prices are not unfair Commissioner of Health Goldwater is determined that no bad food shall be allowed to enter any free stand, Nowhere in the city was any In- rise In found. ‘The butcher shops mali tthe prices of Thursday and Friday.

The buyer gets a home as good or etter than the apartment, although it ts worth $8,600; less, the difference ‘olng toward the cost. T. R. B. writes: “My wife and I have decided to place our savings in & home rather than in securities or banks. Would it be advisable finan. clally to buy a house on an ordinary city plot or to go further into the aub- urbs and get more land « the same price?” Increase in value must come from the land—the house usually deterior- ates steadily. equrd, the more land you hold the greater Is the profit. G. F. asks: “Do the land developing companies charge much more for their new lota than they are really worth? In it better to buy a home site from private parties away from | ip ¥. such developments?” Developing syndic usually di count much of the future with the prices. The buyer should use hie judgment as to present and future val- ues. Much depends on chance, A rapid inflow of population lifts values. Sometimes bargains may be found out- side of development centres. Miss K.
