SPEEDY SELL OUT
AT SOUTH MARKET
New Produce ’Change for
Housewives Is Success.
“Melons, ’taters, apples; right this
way, lady,” is the call of the farmer
on the sonth side market, at Arizona
and Talbott streets.
Although Rome was not built in a
day, markets are, for the south side
market, which has been in operation
only two months, bids fair to assume
metropolitan dimensions within the near
future.
More than twenty stands crowd the
sidewalks and sixteen farmers sold out
their gooods long before the demand
was over.
Approximately $1,500 worth of pTOdnca
has been sold on the market, which is
open all day Saturdays and Wednesday
mornings.
“We have lively' competition in onr
market,” said Mrs. M. L. Reiffel, presi
dent of the South Side Women’s club,
through whose efforts the market was
openea.
“It serves to bring down the prices
of goods,” she continued. “Yesterday
tomatoes were selling at 5 cents a
pound.”
Mrs. Reiffel cited one farmer who
came in from thirty miles and sold
apples at six pounds for a quarter.
"Another producer from Morgantown
raid that he would bring in two truck
loads of peaches and sell them at 3c
l>er cent lower than the market price

if the women would provide baskets to
carry them in.”
Not only green vegetables and fruits
are handled, bat also butter and eggs.
According to Mrs. Reiffel they can’t
get enough butter.
“The women are so anxious to buy It
that they get on the running board of
the car before it stops so they will get
first turn,” she said.
“We need more growers so that all
the women can get served,” Mrs. Reiffel
stated.
Now the women have to come early so
they can get something, and many who
come after 10 o’clock have been disap
pointed, was Mrs. Reiffel’s experience.
More than 600 women from all parts
of the south side patronize the market.
One woman came from Sixtieth street,
saying she could save more money than
her time was worth.
Mrs. Reiffel says that four submar
kets are needed In the four Sections of
the city In addition to the central mar
ket.
"We are continually receiving letters
from farmers regarding our market, and
every producer on the Arizona market
has asked for space on the proposed
Fountain Square market.”
