Poultry Farm Needed.

An industry which would pay
big profits here if properly man
aged is Il poultry farm or hennery,
Not to raise fine chickens and fine
eggs for sale at a high price but
to produce eggs and poultry for
the market. There is great
scarcity of fresh eggs Mt this time
and they are never very plentiful
here, while young chickens are al
ways in demand at good prices, A
few people who have hens are
making II little money by the sale
of fresh eggs and they obtain
from 20 to 30 cents n dozen all the
year round for all the eggs they
can supply.
Feed Is cheap here. Chickens
thrive on milo maze and other
crops which are produced in
abundance in this country.
Eggs are shipped in here con-
stantly in cases and they could
be produced here Just as cheaply
and as abundantly rs they can IN
Central Texas.
One party at least who ha:
common hens has regular Gus
toners who pay % cents do2er
all the year round, no matter
what market prices are.
There is no doubt but that there
is an opportunity here for splen
did business which would require
but small capital and would ylelc
large percentage of profit.

Vacation Drawing to a Close.

Vacation is rapidly drawing to a
close; on next Monday a week, Au-
gust 29th, the school term will begin.
During the short interim the teachers
out of town will return and prepare
for another nine months of hard
work. Parents and pupils likewise
will find plenty to do in order to be
ready to respond when the school bells
ring out after their long silence on
the morning of the 29th.
Que of the duties which they will
not neglect is to attend to the matter
of vaccination. for it is hardly neces.
sary to call attention to the fact that
the school law forbids teachers or prin
cipals to admit students who have not
been successfully vaocinated.
Pupils attending our schools who
were successfully vaccinated last year
for any previous year during his or
her school life and furnished GER
tifcate to that effect need feel no con-
Germ as to vaccination this year but
will be admitted without question
All new pupils. however. entering
our schools for the first can be admit.
ted only by producing certificate
from a physician certifying that they
have been successfully vaccinated.
The school law is very strict in this
matter and no exceptions will be made
Each year a considerable number of
pupils arrive at school age. taking the
place of those who graduated the pre-
vious year or dropped out during the
term. Of those who have not yet
reached school age, but are between
five and six, all whose next birthday
occurs between the opening of the
schools and the Christmas vacation
will be permitted to attend at the be,
ginning of the term; those who will
not be six until between the holidays
and spring will not be admitted until
tile reopening Of the schools after the
Christmas vacation.

Two Principal Commodities.

The two principal commodities in
the curb stone market Tuesday were
sweet corn and tomatoes. There were
few wagons which did not contain one
or the other or both Of them.
The corn was most luscious 10 quail.
ity, the grains large and juicy and the
ears we'll filled. The price during the
earlier hours was ten cents per dozen.
but before the close of market q great
deal was sold at eight cents.
Tomatoes are very fine. Yesterday
they could be bought for fifty cents
per bushel. although In smaller guam
titles they sold at five cents per quar-.
ter or ten cents per half peck.
Only few peaches we're in market :
these were small and sold at ten cents
per box. Plums were more plentiful
aud sold at % cents per peck. or 10
cents per box.
Prospects are fair for . good apple
crop; although they are found In
market in only limited quantities and
sell at 10 cents per peck.
Black berries and huokleberries sold
at 10 cents per box.
Along with farm produce generally
cabbage is growing nicely and prom
ises large yield. 1t sells In market
at an average of about cents per
head.
Butter was scare in market and
brought 25 cents per pound. Eggs are
more plentiful than month or so ago
and sold as low as 1S cents per dozen
yesterday.

River Goal a Scarce Article.l

One of the effects of the record break.
ing food, which is very generally de.
plored, was to sweep the deposit OF
river coal olt of the lower North
branch, which at this place and at
Sunbury was formerly the foundation
of quite an industry. The Water Works
at this place, which since the miners
strike has depended mainly upon river
coal, has been obliged to fall back in
part upon mine coal and now is using
the FIRST car load of that kind since
last spring q year ago.
The deposit of river coal at Sunbury
is exceedingly limited and that which
has been shipped to this city is very
small IN size. The Danville coal dig.
ger is standing idle and has been used
very little since the Fourth Of July.
The reason assigned is that 1t does not
pay to operate it. The deposits of coal
near the bend Of the river where the
digger was employed proftably last
year. have about disappeared. while
Sunbury party who recently examined
the river above our town found little
or no coal.
The theory is that the ice gorges as
they moved along swept the coal from
the bottom Of the river. while what.
ever coal may have been released At
the mines has not reached Danville.
The situation, it will be seen. admits
Of hope. as the next big food may
bring fresh deposit Of coal.

REMOVING
THE MARKET

The question of relocating the curb
stone market will come up before the
Borough Council at its meeting to-
morrow night. Owing to the paving
of Mill street a point has now been
reached where the market at least
temporarily will have to be removed
from that thoroughfare.
The question to settle will be
whether the removal should be per-
manent or not ;also what street is best
adapted for the market.
Not few of the merchants, who
would like to see the market kept on
Mill street, take the view that even
with the trolley line in operation
there will be ample room for the wag-
ons and advocate bringing the market
back as soon as the street is paved.
It is evident, however. that there will
be opposition to this course.
Whether the removal is to be perm.
anent or not a nice point to settle
will be which street is best suited
for the market. Many persons taking
into consideration the location Of the
town, one populous section lying as
it does OIL the north side and the other
on the south side, think that Ferry or
some other street exten ding north and
south should be select ed as one that
would be convenient for the greatest
number of people. They hold that
Lower Mulberry street would be too
inoonvenient for residents of the First
and Second Wards and that Mahoning
street is too remote from portions of
the Third Ward and Yorks' Hill.
The matter is now up to Council
for immediate action. as the market
is already partially crowded off the
street and but two or three marke
days remain before the portion now
occupied will be closed by the con-
tractor.

Pure Milk In Western Counties.

DIR. Warren, Dairy and Food Oom.
missioner, has received reports of an.
aIysis Of milk and cream from western
Pennsylvania chemists. which were
Surprising in their results and indicate
that the efforts to rid that section Of
the State of embalmed dairy. products
have met with marked degree Of sue.
cess. Out of q total number of 225
samples analysed for formaldehyde,
boric acid. and other harmful or IL.
legal adulterants. only three samples
failed to comply with the law.
This Ia in contrast with the condi.
tion which existed at the time when
the present Dairy and Food Commis.
sioner assumed charge of the office. In
the same district last summer, scores
of prosecutions were successfully
brought against dairymen who used
r:naDdehyde, (embalmed fiuid), or
who had sold SKINNED or watered milk
aud cream.
The boroughs in which the samples
were purchased by the sworn special
agents are as follows: Bradford.
Punxsutawney. Rochester. Mononga-
hela, Titusville, Parn assus. KittanninR,
Dubois. Beaver, Arnold, Meadville,

Installing New Fire Plug.

Two new fire plugs were installed
on Mill street Sundsy-onel at the
Danville National Bank and the
other opposite the Opera House.
The plugs displaced we're not worn
out, but they were of the old patte IN
and would sooner or later reach their
limit of usefulness. In order, there
fore, to avoid the probability of being
Obliged to tear up the paved street in
short time it was decided to put in
the new and improved plug. which is
generally being installed throughout
the Borough.
1t was necessary to turn of the wat
er south of the canal while the change
of plugs was being made. Sunday,
therefore, was selected for the work
to the end that as few people as pos.
sible might be disconnected.
The water was turned Off shortly
after noon. The work was accom-
Elished without any hitch and by
evening the water was turned on
again.
It Ia the intention of the Water
Commissioners to throw out all the
old plugs on Mill street and to insert
new ones. The remaining plugs will
be tackled later, at such time as the
work Of paving reaches tho spot they
occupy.

Stoe's Band Will Hold a Ball.

Stoes' Band will hold dance in
the Armory on Friday night, which
promises to be a very fine social event
This band. which is composed of
deserving young fellows, talented in
music, is having a rather disoourag-

port received from the public ia inad :
equate to meet the running expenses.
which although not heavy are more
than the individual members should
be asked to bear. The heaviest item
is the rent, which with light. &c.,
amounts to about ten dollars per
month. This the members. in addition
TO devoting time to practice, at pres :
ent are obliged to pay out of their
pockets.
That the members of the band feel
discouraged goes without saying.
They have decided upon the expediont
of holding the ball OH Friday night
with the hope of realizing from the
proceeds enough to relieve the situa.
tion and place balance in the treas.
ury. In view of the above therefore
it is hoped that the ball will be an
unqualified success. Music for the
dance will be furnished by the band.
The band under the direction OF
Arthur Foulk is praotioing regularly.
At frequent intervals between now
and fall they contemplate playing on
the street as on Friday night and II
the music does not prove highly accept.

support.
