Among the grains are twenty varie-
ties of wheat and several varieties
of oats and grasses. During the

they have not delivered in the
way of fruits, corn and vegetables.
Let every farmer attend this tair
and thereby show his apprecia-

Market is where the exhibit is be.
ing prepared and is where it viii

READING ALSO
BANS LIQUORS

The Philadelphia and Reading Rail
way followed the lead of the Penn
sylvania Railroad and issued a general
order Yesterday prohibiting the sale
of liquor on all dining cars on ali
its lines in Pennsylvania The order
was issued by General Passenger
Agent Edison J. Weeks and goes into
effect at once.
Although no intoxicating drinks
will be sold in this State, the order
does not prohibit the sale of liquor
on crossing the State line, Il will
thus be possible for Philadelphia
New York passengers to be able to
purchase drinks before the train pulls
into Trenton.
I'm commenting on the order Agent
Weeks said that agitation on the
part Of the Pennsylvania Anti-Saloon
League was partly responsible for the
order. The fact that the Reading
trains are passing though a section
Of state where county local option
is in force is also i'm part responsible.
The Reading Railway Official said
that a number of passengers would
probably be incOvenienced He add
ed, however, that only runs of any
length within the State boundaries
would result in any Inconvenience to
those passengers desiring to purchase
liquor.

with the Board of Health OF Lynn,
Mass. over the odors which the
board claims the oompany's plant
gives out that It has decided to re-

II. e. Wright, of the company. who

account of the trouble, has lately re-
turned home. Mr.. Wright said that
the company had simply been unfort-
unate in locating at Lynn.
"The site where our plant is To-
Gated" said Mr.. Wright, had been
used at different times for dye
works, a cannery, and tanning plant.
All Of these trades helped to I'LL the
ground with foul matter, after we
had put our plant into operation and
as the city had built up all around us
the board Of health began to give
our plant the credit for the odors.
We have spent considerable money
improving our plant but we do not
feel that we can spend the necessary
amount OF money to meet the boards
requirements so we have decided 10
remove to some other city. Very
good offers have been received from
