If a Saturday market wet; organized, every person having eggs, butter, poultry, vegetates, etc., for sale, would be compelled to go to the market and offer them for, sale.

To the Editor of the Winghane Times, DEAR SIR, —As the season of the year is near at hand for electing re- presentatives to the;Counch board, I deem it a suitable time to oall the ate tention of gentlemen who may offer themselves for municipal honors, and also the ratepayers and business men generally, to a much needed change in our market regulations. At present, buyers of grain, peek and other pro- ducts, are stationed at the bridges, street corners and railroad crossings trying to steal a march on each other in snapping up bargains from the un- wary farmers wherever the opportunity offers. Now, sir, in my opinion, this kind of thing should not be ullowed. We have a cotnneodious market place, graded and graveled at considerable cost to tbe ratepayers, which up to the present has never been used for market purposes'. This foolish prace tice is against the interests of the farmers, and at any extra expense and cost to the buyers, who have to keep up a staff of assistants that they would not require if.ib was imperative that all products offered for sale should go to the market square. There are a nuin• ber of advantages obtainable; if this principle is carried out. I will not at present take up your space to !simmer, ate theni, but will leave the subject to be thought over and talked over dur- ing the municipal contest. Yours truly, AN /JUMBLE CITIZEN. Address and Presentation.
