City Markets Good
Place to Buy Meats

When you go to market to buy
produce of any kind you always like
to know if it is of good quality or
not. In green goods and fruit you
can readily tell by inspection.
But in meat it is a different pro-
position. You must almost take the
word of the party from whom you
make the purchase. In so doing you
should choose a good reliable man
to buy meat from. Lafferty Bros,
of Hummelstown, who conduct stall
No. SO in the Chestnut street market
can be relied upon to handle only
first class, fresh and smoked meats.
Convince yourself to this fact by CIV
ing them call next market day.

Supply and Demand
REGULATOR of Prices

The two dominating features of
to-day's merchandise situation are
high prices and low stocks.
The law of supply and demand
appear to be working inflexibly to-
wards constantly higher prices in
practically every commodity pro-
duced and marketed.
Experts in buying and selling of
merchandise-men who have given
their lives to a study of the produc-
tion and distribution of food fuel,
clothing and home goods-confess
their inability to see the end of the
upward price movement.
The low stocks of goods in the
hands of textile, metal woodenware
and clothing manufacturers reflect
their inability to produce goods fast
enough to keep up with the de-
mand.
This is, indeed, the one big rea-
son fqg the highest prices in a gen.
eratioG With the governments of
the world competing for the goods
they require at whatever price is
demanded, and the merchants of
the world competing for whatever
goods are left at equally high prices
and with millions of men with
drawn from the production of
goods, situation is developed
Where the delivery question is of
greater Importance than that of
price.
There is desperate shortage in
clothing of every description-work
clothing, coats, trousers, hosiery, un-
derwear, shirts, piece goods, etc.
and the spectacle of jobbers-even
Observation-Disclosures around the
country to pick up small lots in
broken sizes, at whatever price is
demanded, shows in an Illuminating
way the struggle that is on to get
the goods.
The readers of this page are CIV
en- an opportunity, through the ad-
vertisements of these merchants, to
get in touch with almost any article
in any line of goods that is pro-
duced and marketed. BY carefully
reading the advertisements here list
ed the reader, in a very few mo-
ments, can pick out the article he
has been hunting for and, the mer-
chant that is lucky enough to have

this store, or by using the telephone,

The goods all advertised on this
page are handled by merchants in
Harrisburg and the surrounding
towns and are backed by the mer-
chants reputation for good quail
ity goods and a large mercantile ex-
perience.

Sea Foods Economical
For Everyday Use

In these days when high prices
for food products stares every one
in the face and with the government
asking us to cooperate in the plan
to conserve the meat supply, fish
and sea food play an important part
in the menu for our daily meals.
BY using fish in the place of meat
you not only help the Governme ent
but you also help yourself inasmuch
as sea foods on an average are
cheaper than meats and just as nu-
tritious and satisfying.
The Russ Fish Market on the
Square, carries q full supply of fish,
sea foods and game. Daily ship
ments of these products asure only
fresh and quality goods.
Special attention is given to a de-
livery service, that for speed is un-
equaled in the city. A telephone
call will bring to your home any
of these money-saving and meat
conserving products. Be patriotic.
Let your to-morrow's menu contain
some product of the water as it's
important factor. Be sure that, If
quality is what you want, to call the
Russ Fish Market and place your
order with them.

Anyone Can Learn to
Make a Sweater
In a Short Time

It is the common belief that
sweaters are especially hard to
make. AS matter of fact, they are
not. A little girl years of age has
just completed a sweater that is just
as well made as one made by an
older and more experienced person.
Possibly the reluctance of many
women to attempt a sweater has
been due to the blind way they have
been taught to knit
Crochet work is one OF the easiest
and most fascinating forms of fancy
work. It's simplicity and rapidity
with which it can be done makes it
particularly attractive to the begin
ner.
George R. Nauss, who conducts
the Art Needlework Shop, at Front
and Pine streets, in Steelton, per-
sonally teaches the art of knitting
enables Mr.. Nauss to teach per-
son in a very short time to accom-
plish what they may think is al
most impossible.
Mr.. Nauss handles all the various
shades of Lion, Bear and Corticelli
brands of yarn. To those who buy
yarn from this store Mr.. Nauss will
teach free of charge and will glad
ly give any help or directions that
will make your work a success.
Besides a full line of yarns, Mr..
Nauss carries various designs in
stamp goods, ribbons. fancy needle
work and ladies' handkerchiefs.
Most anything in the needlework line
can be procured from this store.
The best quality goods, personal at
tention and a desire to please make
this store q mecca for the ladies.

Bread Baking on
Large Scale at Ruhl's

Bread baking is an art that is
only acquired, like most any other
art, only through years of expert
ence and keeping abreast with the
steady march of modern science.
In the past decade bread baking
methods have so changed that a per-
son familiar with them then would
find himself very much at loss
now If you should step into q mod
ern bakery.
Ruhl's Bakery, at Penbrook, is
just such modern bakery. All the
modern equipment known to the
baking trade is installed in this
model bakery. Every loaf of bread
that is delivered to you from this
bakery is protected from dirt and
dust from the time it is only -four
until it comes to your door. the fin
ished product.
All who know Ruhl's bread agree
that it can't be beat for quality or
quantity. Besides perfection in
bread, this bakery also maintains
a service that is as nearly perfect as
times with labor shortage and scar
city of materials will permit. A
trial of this bread will convince
the most skeptical that 1t is all bread
and full value.

Cash and Carry Plan
Working Well at
Etter's Store

The present system of the much
talked of Cash and Carry Plan" is
working out to the entire satisfaction
of the customers of S. S. Etter, the
Hill grocer. Since opening this
store few months ago the trade
has increased in jumps and bounds.
The prices maintained are lower
than most stores working under the
delivery and credit system, and the
general sales show an increase over
the old system. More satisfaction is
shown among the customers who
realize that they are getting full
value for their money.
The scarcity of food products
causes some inconveniences to the
grocer and the trade in as much as
articles advertised are soon gone and
nothing to take their place. Mr..
Etter has a large stock on hand and
is trying to supply his trade as best
he can.

Flour and Feed Business
On the Increase

A big speciality seller is the chick
en- meat mash sold by o. S. Ebersole,
the Penbrook flour, feed and grain
man. This meat mash is special
preparation, put up by Mr.. Ebersole,
and especially during this time of
year, when cold weather has its us
ual effects in causing a dropping off
in laying, is very good feed for
the chickens. 1t not only helps in
the production of more eggs, but
makes healthier, better chickens.
Mr.. Ebersole also does large
business in flour, grain and corn.
During these strenuous times, when
all feed of any kind is so high, 1t is
a very hard matter to even secure
these products at almost any price.
However, Mr.. Ebersole has a goodly
stock on hand and those who have
been dealing with him know the
quality of goods he handles and the
business integrity used in conducting
one of the largest flour and feed
businesses in Dauphin county.

at most any price. The demand is
much larger than the supply.
c. E. McAlicher, who conducts a
general grocery store at the corner
of Green and PETER streets, carries

ceries. The prices maintained are
based on quality rather than guam
tity. All the articles are of the first
grade of goods and are appetizing
and will please the most fastidious.
Special features are the different
grades of coffe handled. One spe-
cial brand sells at 90 cents a pound.

extended to every one to try the
goods that are displayed in this up

Heinz Tells Why Nation
Must Observe Wheatless
and MeatleSs Days

Persons who observe strictly the
wheatless meal and wheatless day
may wonder why the Food Admins
traitor continues to almost daily send
out bulletins on the urgency of fur
ther conservation, but there is a rea-
son. For example, his figures in to-
days message put the situation in a
nutshell. He says our average an
nual consumption of wheat is 572,-
OOO,O00 bushels. Our 1917 harvest
was $50, 100000 bushels. After ship
ping 20O,O00,OO0 to Europe we will
have 46O,000,000 bushels left, or
eighty per cent. of our normal
amount.
Bear in mind that this leaves us
approximately eighty per cent. of
normal wheat for the 1917-191S sea-
son (and there are some hundreds of
thousands of our boys on the other
side who will not be here this year
to eat their share) and there is no
possibility OF our losing any of this
eighty per cent. through submarines
or in other ways. Therefore. it
should be plain to all of us what our
duty is-it is to save as much over
and above the amount we are asked
to conserve by the observance of
Monday and Wednesday as wheatless
days and by the observance of one
meal daily as q wheatless meal.
"The reason we must save thirty
per cent. now Is because the twenty
per cent. represents the saving that
must be made during tho entire sea-
son of 1917 and 1918 and we did not
start our conservation until long aft
er the 1917 harvest had been started
through the mills and even now there
are some who have not started con-
serving as they should"
Mr.. Hoover lays great stress on
the necessity. of using more potatoes.
Potatoes and wheat possess starch in
generous quantities and by using po-
tatoes freely we will be able to con-
serve the wheat it is necessary to
send abroad. Some of the delicacies
he suggests, made from potatoes.
are: Shepard's Pie. Potato Sausage,
scalloped Potatoes and Cheese, Pota-
to Pie, Potato Turnovers and Mrs
LEAFS Bread Receipt. One of Phila-
delphia's largest bakeries is using a
big percentage of mashed potatoes
in making It's bread. Any housewife
can learn al about potato substitu--
ton by writing to the United States
