Potatoes, Corn, Apples: 1917

The Farmers' Market
Started up in mid-July in our neighborhood. Carrots, cucumbers, peas in the pod, potatoes and all the regular vegetables were available. We could even buy honey in the comb! At the end of summer, the McIntosh apples came in. We could buy a whole bushel basket for a buck!
They were ungraded as to size, but they were FRESH! Not like the mushy ones in the supermarket of today; these were ripe and hard as a rock!
