In the first place, the city is not large enough and the producers too far away to make the move stigma from City scheme a complete success. The chief trouble is that nobody knows just what days the market will be open — evident, too, and consequently forget it é-| together. It is that the producer cannot af-| ford to come here with his} produce every week. It is also certain that there is not enough in it for any local man | to handle the produce on com- mission.

Perhaps one of the local produce mer- chants would be glad to get free space or perhaps, indeed, pay a reasonable charge for it in return for a little service to the city. If this were done one of the requisites should be that fish should be sold at a profit of perhaps only a cent a pound. The commission the outside would be charged should also be limited.
