REPORT SHOWS
RAPID GROWTH
Farmers Community Market Has
Gained Precedence Among
Housewives in Five Years.
BRANCH OPENED BY MILLER

The annual report of Farmers Com
munity Market, which is located on
Boston avenue, between Fairmount
avenue and the Thorofare, Atlantic
City, and attended by so of the farm
ers in the Bargaintown, Linwood, Alb
secon and Cologne sections of the
county, indicates the rapid growth
which this organization has made dur
ing the past five years under Voca-
tional guidance. This market is at
tended by the housewives of the Chel-
sea and Yentnor section.
Some scope of the quantity of bust
ness done by the local farmers was
reported by H. A. Miller, marketmas-
ter and agricultural instructor of this
section. During the year of 1923 there
were 21,198 dressed chickens sold and
22,142 dozen eggs, which is equivalent
to 739 cases. The poultry products
represented approximately 10000
The market has developed an exclus-
i've trade for fresh killed chickens and
eggs.
A rule of the market which helps
maintain this standard is the fact that
all products brought to it must be
raised by the farmers attending the
market. This insures strictly fresh
products direct from the farmers
There were 1893 individual loads
brought to the market during the sea
son. which averaged at least $50 per
load throughout the season. The big
gest load of the season was brought
in in August and sold for approximate
ly $50. Valuing the loads at $50, the
approximate volume of business done
by these farmers was $4,000
An accurate ratio was established
between the prices received by these
retail farmers, as compared with the
wholesale prices of the same products
The figures indicated that the retail
farmers were averaging about 1890
more for their products than if sold in
the wholesale market This would in
dicate saving to the farmers through
the establishment of this market of
approximately S7,725 per year. The
Vocational department feels very much
pleased that it has been able to assist
these farmers to such degree.
A similar market was established in
the Inlet section by Mr.. Miller during
the past summer and it also has been
avery successful During the winter

OF the market, such as promising crops
adapted TO the market conditions, irri-
cation methods, more complete regu-
lation of the poultry products and sea
.sonal distribution of the products as
grown by the local farmers This will
help TO clear up some of the neglected
phases Of last years work.
