HOME GROWN VEGETABLES HERE nlr of Ornpr Kmlt Incrrnar Won dcrfnllr Drnsr Store Lours Montr on Chicken Snnd wlrhrs. Chickens have bfen discovered to cost the consumer 6 cent" nn ounce A drug; ptore at Seventeenth and Fnrnnm streets Which serves sandwiches at Its soda foun tain recently bouttht two hens, wclnh Inc nine pounds, for Jl.Stt. The hens were boiled and nil the meat taken from them. Vhen put In the scales this meat foal nncc. at twenty-seven ounces, which brought the actual cost to figure 6 cents an ounce. The drug store had been sell ing cnicKcn sanawK'ucn ni j icum .-ih.m,j The price Immediately wail raised to 20 cents, the proprietors having figured that money was lost, not only on the chicken, but the bread, butter, olive and !lck1e were being given away. Chickens nro scarcer In Omaha than they have been for many months. There Is practically none on the local market. What can be had are bought at IS cents A pound, wholesale, and at most places nre sold at 20 and 22 cents, retail. There nre no ducks, geoso or turkeys. Other meats are selling at about the same high figures as a week ago. None has de clined In price, and some kinds hava ad vanced a half cent or more for the re tall dealer. Butter still sells at 36 cents a pound rnd eggs at 20 cents a dozen, l'rults find vegetables arc plentiful. Home irrown vegetables have begun to como into the local market Itadlshes sell three bunches for a nickel. .Spinach Is six pounds for 6 cents. Asparagus Is "Vi rents a bunch. Rhubarb retails at two bunches for a nickel. Fresh peas have arrived from Texas Itnd are selling at 10 cents a quart. Pineapples are unusually plentiful. They sell at 15, 12M and 10 cents apiece, a reduction of 6 and 10 cents from the Jirlce of a year ago. The sales of grape fruit have trebled In the last two weeks, says Albert King, manager of Hoyden llros.' grocery de partment. Incidentally, they have ad vanced a dollar a box, and retail at 7H, HVS and 10 cents each. There has been no demand for oranges this spring. Con sumer are afraid of them slnco the frosts truck the crops In the west. Prices are higher, fruit which sold at 20, 25 and 30 cents a dosen a year ago, now selling at 90, 35 and 40 cents a dozen. Medical Colleges Get More Corpses Undertakers of Omaha are not Just ture of the effects of the new. law passed by the Nebraska legislature, regulating the disposition of unclaimed bodies. The hew law prohibits friends of a deceased person from claiming the body, making Its disposition rest on the direction of relatives only. According to some undertakers the new law Is Intended to keep persona posing n friends of the dead whoso body has Dot been claimed from directing that It be turned over to a medical college. One undertaker said that the state superin tendent of publlo Instruction formerly bad authority to direct the disposition of unclaimed bodies, and that he sent tnost of them to Omaha when the medi cal colleges here were In need of ma terial: that the medical colleges fore nulled such action by having a man pose as a friend of the deceased and or jderlng the body turned over to them. The new law, they say, Is Intended to Jielp the medical colleges. There are some who believe the law will Interfere with those who actually ere friends of a dead person In disposing of the body. In cases where such a per son has no relative, but haa friends who want to bury the body, they say anyone who wlshod to stand strictly to the letter of the law could oppose them. In such cases the body would go to a medical college.
