ANN|STONS SOL LVES
 MARKET PROBLEM FUR SMALL FARMER
Home Products of All Kinds Sold at Cooperative Club Market-Fair
 Prices Set

Auburn. Ala, December 4.-(Spe- eial. )--After wrestling with the prob lem of finding satisfactory markets for the products produced by the club girls and women of Alabama for more than a decade 1t Is now thought that key to the problem was in- troduced at Anniston last week, re- port of which was made here today by Miss Stella Harms. home demon- stration agent for Calhoun county.
 As reported by Miss Harms the purpose of the club market intro- duced at Anniston Is to provide mar kets for several home products, many of which are not quite suitable to the regular grocery trade. At the Annis- ton sale such products as home made butte. canned products, sausage, ribs. backbones, home made bread, cakes, dressed chickens and cut flowers were sold. The sale was held fin Miss Harms office and the products were brought in by representatives of four community clubs in Calhoun county.
 In making arrangements for this sale a fair price committee was ap- pointed consisting of two ladies of Admission and two rural ladies, with Miss Harms as chairman, and this committee fixed the prices on the diff ferent products. The sale resulted in everything being sold with de- mands for two or three times as much as was on hand. To defray overhead expenses and to pay for cartons, wrapping, paper. etc, per cent was deducted from the gross sale.
 Following the initial success, the next Anniston sale will be staged on December 19, under the auspices of the Calhoun County Council of Wom- en's clubs. with Miss Harms in charge. To meet the holiday demands such products as pickles. preserves holly and mistletoe will be added to those sold at the first sale.
 It is understood from other county home demonstration agents who are in Auburn taking one month of spe- ciai training that similar markets will be opened soon in other Ala h A ma fnWnE
