The stall rentals for 1914 will amount to $724. ir the expenditures average as they have during the last four years, this will leave a deficit of over $200. The expenditures include the marketmaster's salary. As he devotes half his time to inspecting weights and measures, a part of these expenditures should not be chalked up against the market house. But this is counterbalanced bv the intprPBt

invested in the mnrkAt h mica ann

grounds, which would be $250 to $300 a year. Marketmaster McKinley says he believes the citizens of the community have become indifferent to the institution. "The fact that we have market only one day in the week instead of three days, as the rules provide for, shows that the consumers don't take much stock in it. If it did them any good, they would come in larger numbers and they would demand that we hold market three days a week, as the rules call for." Grocers Not Affected. A number of local grocers interviewed on the question, expressed themselves as being wholly indifferent to it. One dealers, whose comment was typical of all. said: "It does not mako a bit of difference to me one way or the

other. The city market doesn't cut any figure at all in our business. It doesn't affect prices a penny. If a hundred or so women prefer to go down there and haggle over the tables and then deliver their own purchases, they are free to do so. But I don't see that the city should put up a lot of good, hard cash In order to give them this privilege. If the commis

sion merchants and the professional gardners want a place to retail their stuff, let them put up their own building and not expect the city to furnish it." Other cities have had the same experience as Richmond. Mayor Hosey of Fort Wayne wrote in response to a questionnaire sent out by the Palladium. "The same conditions are confronting us as the ones confronting you. and we are looking for information along this same direction." The marketonaster of Philadelphia, who is recognized throughout the country as an authority op the subject, sajd among other things the fol-

existing in Richmond, unfortunately are true in most markets." St. Louis Indifferent. The controller of the St. Louis markets, in a report made to the Chicago municlpa market commission, described conditions there as follows: "Our experience in the last few years seems to indicate the passing of our municipal markets. . Their sphere of usefulness appears to materially contract from year to year. A careful investigation of the situation some months ago convinced me that the patrons of our markets are dealing for the most part at neighborhood combination grocery, meat and vegetable shops and largely by telephone. Few farmers bring their produce to the municipal markets, preferring apparently to deal with commission men. The statement that has been made since

the establishing of municipal markets the price of food has decreased conBirior&hlv la not borne out by facta."

' The city of St. Louis receives $30.000 annually from the rental of alalia and stands. This is almost no return at all on the investment. One market buiding alone w4th Its grounds is valued at 2.000,000. Marketmaster McKinley said he did not see that anything could be done with the market at present. He believes that in Justice to taxpayers it should at some time in the future be abolished.
