sources of the national banks of the J
United States within the last two years,
as shown by the returns from the last

Dauphin Deposit Shows
Depositors How Machine
Protects Their Interests
So much interest was displayed in
the demonstration given yesterday by
the Dauphin Deposit Trust Company of
the new Elliott-Fisher bank bookkeep
ing machine that it will be repeated to- j
morrow between the hours of 10 and 12
I o'clock.
j Depositors and visitors who witness
ed this demonstration were shown how
this machine insures accuracy and
gives them the best possible accounting
service.
The demonstration was in charge of
C. C. Fitch, manager of the bank de
partment of Elliott-Fisher Company.
Mr. Fitch showed how the machine
made tile depositor's statement, posted
the ledger and furnished a complete
journal of checks and deposit all ai one
operation. He pointed out how each |
i day's bookkeeping was proved from
I every angle so that it is almost impos
sible to make a mistake which could
not be detected immediately.
T!ie great importance ot the journal
of checks and deposits made the Elliott-
Flsher way was explained to many.
Each dHy this can go to the cashier or
any other official of the bank so that
lie can sne the condition of every ac
count and the changes that are made
from day to day. This Journal Is vir
tually a duplicate set of records In ad
dition to the ledgers. If for any reason
one or more of the ledgers should be
destroyed, as in the case of lire, they
can be completely reconstructed from
the Elllott-I' isher journal of checks and
deposits.
Many depositors received an explana
tion of the depositor's statement and
how it was made at the same opera
lion witii posting the ledger.
The importance of this statement was 1
seen a* a glance. With Elliott-Fisher |
statement system it is no longer neces- j
sary for the depositor to return his j
bank book for balancing.
Many of those who witnessed this |
demonstration never realized before j
that Harrisburg makes such a wonder- :
ful machine for bank bookkeeping.
Elliott-Fisher Company, in Its beau- !
tiful daylight factory 4n South Cameron J
street, has spent years in developing
and perfecting this machine.

City Ash Collection
Problems Grow Graver j
Samuel Gardner, president of the j
Pennsylvania Reduction Company, l
which has the contract for the collec
tion of ashes and garbage in the city
announced to-day that the company
had thirteen ash carts and 6 garbage j
wagons collecting to-day, and that he i
expected' the situation would improve
considerably within the coming week.
He blames the holiday season for
the refusal of the men to work.
Yesterday only 9 carts and wagons
were working. More went out but
the drivers refused to work in the
rain. Secretary Hamilton of the Re
duction Company said that the col
lections are now three weeks behind
schedule.
CHESTER AVI LI, "FIRE"
ITS ASH COLLECTOR
Chester also has its ash
troubles. At a special meeting of the
city council of that city yesterday the
City Solicitor was authorized to pre
pare papers for the forfeit of con
tracts and bonds existing between
George D. Armstrong, ash contractor
and council, and advise as to the
steps to be taken. The motion was
offered by Superintendent of Streets
Messick and seconded by Councilman
Mlrkil and passed unanimously on the
roll call.
The above action was taken follow
ing a flery discussion between the
councilmen over the conditions exist
ing. Councilman Mould declared each
night he received 10 to 20 complaints
over the telephone at his residence
about the noncolleotion of ashes.
Councilman Mirkil then said: "I
think Mr. Messick has given Contrac
tor Armstrong every chance and he
has violated provisions of the con
tract and the winter ash schedule each
minute of the day." Councilman Mes
sick then offered the motion for
Solicitor Cochran to give council the
action to be taken.
Contractor Armstrong's flve-year
contract expires April 1, 1917. The
Highway's Department will undoubt
edly take charge of the ash collection
until thut time.

Scrap Iron Feed For
Poker Beats Sand Diet
For Poultry Many Ways
Lcwistown, Pa., Dec. 28. Dory
Hummoll, of Beaver Springs, owns
the heaviest pig in proportion to size
in the world. The pig, of no remark
able dimensions in height or beam,
was slain and when placed on the
scales was found to register 595
pounds.
"Something wrong," said Hummel,
and his farmhand and neighbors as
sented.
"The scales he OK," continued Hum
mell, challenglngly, and though all
inwardly doubted, none was rash
enough to take up the Issue. Then the
pig was turned over to the farmhand
to be cleaned.
It proved to be a walking hardware
store. In the stomach were sixty-nine
ten-penny nails, a quantity of loose
bolts, nuts and screws and six pieces
of iron hoop from four to six inches
long.
Mr. Hummel avers that this method
of feeding has the poultry dealers of
New York who stuff their birds with
sand and .shot to increase their weight,
beaten to the wire by ten rods.
Over in Sinklni; Valley is another
remarkable pig. This is a female of
the species and she lives up to the
dcadlier-than-tlie-male thesis of R.
Kipling. Henry Smith owns this pig,
which devoured yesterday seven hound
puppies, live kittens and two Pekin
ducks. Mr. Smith camo out to re
monstrate and ills farmyard pet
chased him into the house.
"Pigs," says Mr. Smith, "may be
pigs, but some are hungrier than
others."
