Some apple venders have been doing Rensselaer the past few days and from what some people say they have been “dolnfe” about every one who bought of them. One man alleged that they give only about 3 pecks for a bushel and after showing large and smooth apples they give purchasers small and inferior ones. They charge 1L25 per bushel and any lacal dealer will probably sell you a full bushel for the same price. George Ade, a man who knows a good thing when he sees it says: "I have found Witch Hazel Cream to be superior to any other treatment for the burnings of summer and the freezings of winter."
