MARKET

New Potatoes, Green Beans, Cucumbers, Onions and Radishes Obtainable.

THANKS TO WEATHER ; Richmond markets are a riot of fresh vegetables. The unusual warm winter has enabled the southern gardeners and northern greenhouse vegetable producers to market their crops early, new potatoes, strawberries, green beans, encumbers, celery onions and radishes can now be obtained from the grocers and .commission men. The first supply of new potatoes are quoted at SO cents a small measure which to the average housewife would mean approximately 3 cents each. -The marble like tubers have been shipped from the south In small quanitiea. Strawberries H'flbThe quotations in the strawberry markets remains stationary, 45 to 50 cents a quart aeecr'ng to quallity and conditions of shipment. Up to this time the shipments of strawberries have been of the highest order owing to the fact that the berries have been packed in ice and transported in refrigerator cars. The market for berries is steadily increasing. Owing to the fact that the winter has been exceedingly mild the sassafras hunters have been able to gather the bark and place it upon the market. Already a few bundles of bark has been on the list of quotations at 10 cents. This is rather early for sassafras but the quality of the ark la equal to later gatherings. Red radishes and onions are now being shipped in Richmond in large quanittB as the market is steadily rising . The radishes bring 5 cents a bnnen while the onions, command a price of 3 for 10 cents. The grape fruit supply is gradually Increasing. At this time but few cases of the fruit can be obtained by the commUsionmen. The orange market Is steady. The California Narrate arre rapidly taking the place of & Florida fruits. The quality of of the Navals is much better at this time than in previous shipments. Apple Market 8teady Small shipments of all the usual aprtog vegetables are expected if the weather continues warm but if should a cold spell set in then the early spring markets would be delayed about three weeks or a month. The apple market is remaining steady with quotations similar to those of last week. The shipments of the western and southwestern fruits are becoming more numerous and the western product is commanding higher quotations. The New York State supply is still keeping a pace with the demand. Y. M. C. A. Men's Meeting Sunday, 2:30 p. m., Honeywell Tabernacle. Hear Rev. McGurk of Dayton in his great message to men.

BURLESON CHANGES COMPLICATE RATES Post Office Officials Perplexed Over Parcel Post Rules.

"With all the changes, parcel post rates are becoming so complicated we 1 will not be able to figure them soon. ' Under the latest order of the postmaster general, you can send four pounds of third class or printed matter to Chicago for 32 cents. Add a few sheets of paper and make it five pounds, and it costs you only 14 j cents." This was the comment of Lawrence A. Handley, superintendent of mails at the Richmond postofflce, when asked about Postmaster General Burleson's order making third class matter over four pounds shipable by par cel post. Four pounds or under is ; sent at a cost of two ounces for one j cent, while more than four pounds j goes at the regular zone rate. Since January 1, when the rates were lowered and weights increased, parcel post matter has increased in volume. The average weight of parcels has more than doubled since October. The average weight then was two pounds to a package, while last week's average was four and one half pounds to the package. There is every probability that the average weight of packages will increase still more in Richmond, asa number of merchants are adding mail order departments to their stores. A change announced two months ago will be effective March 1 on books weighing more than eight ounces. Books will go at parcel post rates instead of as third class matter. The local office has not yet received a parcel weighing the maximum of fifty pounds. However, a short time ago, a forty-seven pound package was received. Several parcels of steel bars weighing twenty pounds, the maximum from that zone, were received from New York. CITY STATISTICS Deaths and Funerals.

yesterday a demonstration of tbe new milk clarification machine, recentlyplaced on the market by a Chicago concern. The demonstrators, N. 1. Malmstrom and A. B.

One quart had a vast amount of dirt in it. The other quart was contaminated by udder impurities and was declared to be most unhealthful.

STEPS ON LIVE WIRE; THROWN TO John Bettelon Probably Saves His Life By Lying Quietly. Walking along North C street about 6:30 o'clock last evening John Bettelon, 30, a shipping clerk at the American Seeding Machine company, stepped on a "live" telephone wire and the electric shock threw him to the ground. He was knocked unconscious for a few moments and when he revived he found that the "live" wire had almost encircled him. Realizing that if he moved he would come in contact with the live wire again, he lay still and shouted to passersby. Many pedestrians were attracted to the scene and hurried to the rescue of Bettelon. With the aid of a coat wrapped around the live wire it was drawn aside and Bettelon, partially stunned by the shock, was carried out of range of danger and later removed to his home, 214 North Nineteenth street. At a" late hour this afternoon his condition was regarded as slightly improved. He was badly burned about the feet and legs. The fact that he remained quiet while within the coil of sparking, death carrying wire, is the only thing which prevented him from being electrocuted, it is believed. Investigation showed that the broken telephone wire had fallen across
