LETTERS TO THE EDITOR.
PRICE OF VEGETABLES,
Sir,—l ,T.)i truly sorry to know Mr. Tregoar lias put the put on the retail greengrocer, letting the public know how the poor grower only gets lid. n sack for cauliflowers while tho greengrocer gels about Ms. per sack. I wonder both the Mayor and Mr. 'J'regear do not got into a business so profitable. As Mr. M'Laren states: "I have held I he- sales account in my hnml, .and can vouch for the Gd. a sack cauliflowers." It is a pity the Mayor did not see or smeil such a sack. I have seen plenty during my short stay iu business. If Mr. M'Laren, also M,V. Tregcar, will send me their address I will, on the first chance, send them a bag of this eril-smclliiig rubbish free of cost. I also enclose price paid by mo in to-day's auction for cauliflowers, 13.'. i>er sack. It is easy for the Mayor and Mr. Trcgear to learn the truth it the? wish to—l am, etc C. N. LEWIS.
[Tho sales account enclosed shows the price paid as stated by Mr. Lewis.]
