The second Quarterly Conference
for Bethel and Cheswold meets at
Bethel, September 9th at 10 a. m.
To show the wide range of value for
produce existing between the producer
and consumers the following instance
comes to our notice. Recently when
the earliest tomatoes were being picked |
from our patches, one of our growers
gathered few baskets for which he
could not find sale at our stores neither
could he sell them on our shipping
market and the shipper thought them
too low priced to risk shipping them.
In the Meantime a lady from Phila-
delphia visited the grower and mar
veled when the circumstance was told
her and said: "Oh! in our market had
to pay fifteen cents for quarter of
peck, isn't it awful?"
Rural Grange held a social on the

ments.

loaded nearly a car of tomatoes at 30
cents per basket.
