STATE MARKET
SURVEY TOPROBE
COST OF LIVING
Questionnaires to Be Mailed
to Consumers and Pro-
ducerS of District

The first survey of market con-
ditions and facilities to be made by
the State Department of Agricul-
ture will be undertaken in Harris
burg and will probably be extended
to other cities during the autumn.
A series of preliminary inspections
and meetings with farmers is plan
ned for Harrisburg and State off,
cials will also visit Lancaster, York,
Reading and other places.
Within the next few days Har-
risburg food consumers will receive
questionaires from the State Bureau
of Markets as part of the survey
here and municipal officials will CO.
operate with the State authorities.
Guy c. Smith. director of the State
Bureau of Markets has already for
warded questionaires to hundreds
of producers within the marketing
radius of Harrisburg and this sur
vey is expected to show what guam
tity of foodstuffs from the produc-
ers reach the Harrisburg wholesale
and market trade and what portion
is shipped to other points.
The list of questions which will
be submitted to Harrisburg fami-
lies of all classes will include a plan
of suggestions for the improvement
of the public markets and for the
general handling of food products
in the city. 1t will also give the
consumers a chance to record what
complaints they have against the
present market system and will
show in what portion food products
are purchased by the average con-
sumer. These questionaires are eX-
pected to go out next week and Mr..
Smith is asking the housekeepers to
give immediate attention to the re-
ports so that they may assist in the
movement to promote better mar
ket conditions in the city.
In a cable dispatch to Secretary
of Agriculture Rasmussen yesterday
Professor ]. P. Sanders, director OF
the Bureau of Plant Industry stated
that he was leaving Rotterdam,
Holland, on the steamship Amster-
dam.
Professor Sanders as an agent of
the United States government has
been making an extensive study of
the potato wart disease in England
and ether European countries. He
is expected to bring back with him
valuable information concerning
methods for combating the disease
and also list of wart resistant va
rieties of potatoes which have been
developed in England. 1t Is likely
that the Federal and State authori-
ties will arrange for the importance
of resistant types of seed potatoes
if Professor Sanders has found them
to be a success and they will be
used in the districts in which the
potato wart has been found.

STEELTON PLANT
WANTS DAYLIGHT
SAVING IN 1920
Only Three of the Big Office
Force Fail to Sign
Petition

The thousands of employees of the
big Steelton plant of the Bethlehem
Steel Company are lining up for an
extra hour of daylight next sum-
mer which Congress sought to kill
by repeating the act which proved
immensely popular among all class
es of workingmen and women.
Petitions calling for the setting
of the clock an hour anead next
summer for five summer months
have been circulated. Only three of
approximately 200 men employed
in the general offices did not fix
their signatures to the petitions.
Similar petitions have been got
ten ready for circulation through
out the plant and it is believed that
more than 5000 signatures may be
obtained in this manner.
Many members of the Steelton
council are known to be inclined tc
favor a continuance of the extra
hour of sunshine which they have
been enjoying for two years. An
ordinance calling on all business
men to observe the new schedule
during May, June, July August and
September of next year is being pre-
pared, it is understood.

City Saves Money by
Collecting Ashes Under
Municipal Supervision

The cost of municipal ash COL
lections in Harrisburg during lug
ust was $4S2,35 less than the old
system of collecting by contract, ac-
cording to a report presented to
City Council this morning by Harry
F. Sheesley, chief of the Ash Bureau
The report was read into the Coun-
Gil Journal by Commissioner Hass-
Ter.
Maintenance and care of the
horses, including the blacksmithine
amounted to $424.40, salaries paid
to seven drivers, seven ground men,
three dump men and one stable man
aggregated S1,215 and $26.25 was
charged for stable rent, making a
total of $1,665.
With the same amount of men
and equipment Sheesley said II
would have cost $2,148. hence the
difference. S4S2.35 represents the
saving. Sheesley also charged for
depreciation and interest on the
money invested. Other figures he
offered shows that 1t costs the city
ninety eight and two-fifth cents u
day to keep the horses. Council
was Pleased with the report and
ordered 1t to be made a part of the
official Council Record.
