Something Is Out of Jibe at Home.

Notwithstanding the immense crop of potatoes this year and the fact that more potatoes were raised in Jasper county than ever before in its history we are still compelled to pay SO cents a bushel for them at the grocery stores, about 30 cents more than they are quoted at in Chicago. Eggs also are away up in price for this season of the year,] and are retailing now at 22 cents per dozen, which means that they will get along well toward the 50 cent mark before spring. In Chicago they are now quoted at 26 cents. *
