STATE TO FARM
AT INSTITUTIONS
Development of Prison and
Almshouse Being Discussed
by Board of Charities
Preliminary data for the establish
ment of a system whereby inmate*
of prisons and almshouses may work
on county farms was presented to the
State Board of Public Charities to
day by Secretary Wharton under au
thority of the Joint resolution passed
by the last Legislature. All of the
eastern, and central counties have
submitted figures regarding prisons
and Information about farms and as
soon as the western counties report a
system will be worked out and put
into operation in the spring.
Plans for extensions and changes
at the Farview State institution were
submitted by Henry F. Walton, chair
man of the board of trustees, and
tentatively approved. The board ap
proved plans for the new almshouses
of the Scranton and Blakely districts
and for the new Indiana county pris
on. Keports were made that condi
tions at Northampton county prison
had been improved.
State farm advisers were called
here to-day for consideration of a
plan for visitation of all State in
stitutions having farms wlyereby ad-'
vice could be given for the raising
of the maximum amount of food
stuffs for thelf inmates next year.
The Department of Agriculture has
compiled information about the ex
tent and character of all farms own
ed by the State at institutions and
soil surveys as well as studies of the
needs of institutions have been under
way. The advisers wll take up each
particular institution and present
recommendations as to the kind and
extent of crops.
RIVERSIDE IS
NOW 14TH WARD
Residents, However, Cannot
Vote at Primaries, City
Solicitor Says
The court decree annexing River
side to Harrlsburg and designating it
as the Fourteenth ward was signed
to-day by President Judge George
Kunkel.
In the order the Rev. A. A. Bouton
was appointed judge of elections; G. J.
Gripfe, majority inspector; Harry C.
Miller, minority inspector, and placed
the polling place at Herre Brothers
Plumbing Shop, Fourth and Vaughn
streets. The election officers are only
appointed for the purpose of conduct
ing the election of ward officers. No
special election was set in the decree.
City Solicitor John E. Fox and the
county authorities rtow have a new
tangle to solve. The section of the
Clark act under which the Fourteenth
ward was created provides that elec
tion officers appointed by the court
only hold the positions until succes
sors are elected, and for this purpose
a special election may be called.
Mnnt Present Petition
As no date was set for the special
election, and the officers appointed by
the court only act at an election of
ward officers, city officials expressed
the opinion to-day that the Riverside
voters cannot ballot next Wednesday
for candidates for either city or coun
ty offices.
lit was also said that since the court
did not set a date for a special poll
for ward officers, that the residents
In the annexed territory will proba
bly have to present a petition asking
such action.
City Solicitor Fox stated that should
a specal election be called it would
be governed by the usual municipal
election laws and could not be held in
time for the Fourteenth ward to be
properly organized so that the voters
could ballot in November.
"I doubt, however," Solicitor Fox
continued, "whether the voters can
be deprived of their privilege to vote
in November for city officials. If reg
istrars are appointed by the county
commissioners, I believe the voters
could register and ballot. It is a
question which must be thoroughly
investigated, and I will do so at once,
before givnig a final opinion."
It is probable that.,the residents of
Riverside will take some action on
the question of losing their vote and
regarding the filing of a petition for
a special election of ward officers.

Warns Against Buying
From Dealers Who Use
Short Measure Basket
Inspector of Weights and Measures
Reel, has found that certain dealers
of this city doing business in the
city markets are using short
measure baskets in selling peaches
and to-day warned housewives
against buying from these men who
are leaving them under the im
pression that they are getting more
than they are actually receiving l .
These dealers are buying peaches in
half bushel baskets and transferring
the fruit to fourteen-quart baskets,
getting the same price as the dealer
who sells from the slxteen-quart
basket. These dealers get around
the law by marking the baskets
twenty-one pounds, but they should
not ask the same price ns the dealer
who sells his goods in the original
basket which should contain twenty
four pounds. The baskets are mark
ed short and are shipped here from
the southern states containing mel
ons and are bought up by these deal
ers with the express purpose of using
ttiem In delivering the consumers
who unless familiar with different
size baskets think they are getting
a half bushel. The worst trouble
in ihts respect has been with certain
dealers In the Hill markethouse.
