8 WHOLESALE MARKET IS OF NO BENEFIT "Would Be Detrimental Rather Than Beneficial, Proprietor of East End Farms Tells Members of Harris burg Rotary Club "I believe the idea of a wholesale market in Harrisburg will be detri mental rather than beneficial to the interests of the consumer, Robert J. Walton, proprietor of the East End Farms, near Hummelstown, told members of the Rotary Club and their families who were his guests at a cornroast last evening. "In the first place," Mr. Walton continued, "the farmer has not the time to attend both wholesale and retail markets, which would mean that he "would come to markets Tues day and Fridays, sell to city re tailers who would add their profit and take the goods to market the next day. As the arrangement now is, we bring vegetables, taken from the ground the day before, to market and the consumer deals for the most part direotly with the farmer and gets fresh vegetables and fruits." "A great deal has been written recently," he continued, "about the great profits the farmers are mak ing. I do not notice that many farmers . are getting very rich. If the business is so. good why is it that the number of farmers is not greatly Increased by people from the city? You do not try to regulate the prices the merchants charge you for dresses or suits of clothing, yet all,manner of attempts are made to No Alcohol or Dangerous Drugs NOTED PASTBH \M TANLNC That the stomach is the fountain head of most disease- was again proven in the case of the Re-.

Mr. Walton told the Rotarians that he expects his farms, which are among the largest in Pennsyl vania, will produce this year about 15,000 baskets of peaches, 5,000 bushels of apples, 5,600 bushels of potatoes, 12,000 dozen ears of sweet corn, 100,000 heads of cabbage and 150,000 stalks of celery. Most of this is sold in the Harrisburg mar kets. A young army of employes is at work constantly. "Tho need of the hour is encour agement to the farmer," Mr. Walton said. He cited the instance of Wilkes-Barre, where the Chamber of Commerce ran special motor trucks equipped to carry passengers into the country districts to take mei. to and from work on the farms, thus saving a labor shortage and greatly increasing the crops of fine vegetables thereabout. Mr. Walton entertained the Ro tarians in fine style, the first feature of the day being- an inspection 'trip of the big farms by automobile, the journey requiring about one hour. Then the guests looked over the sheds where the fruit and vegetables are prepared for market and loaded on the trucks that bring them to this city. The supper was served on the lawn, corn on the ear, cold boiled country ham, potato salad, poaches, pears, apples- and grapes being on the menu. After supper the first fall meeting of the Rotary Club was held on the porch of the Walton home, with G. ! M. Steinmetz, president in the chair, and John F. O'Neill, acting as secre tary in the absence of W. M. Robison who is attending the Knights Temp lar convention in Philadelphia.

HARJUSBUR.G SdilSl TELEGRAPH ODD FELLOWS IN BIG REVIEW Much Interest Being Shown by Delegates in Election of Officers ***** | |HSsiEj|<4 ROBERT E. LEE, Popular Philadelphia Candidate For Grand Master Election of ofllcers was put ahead to-day on the convention calendar of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows. Delegates wanted more time to discuss reports. It was also feared that after the parade a num ber of delegates might want to get away, and some of the discussions were sidetracked and election of offi cers called for. The light for grand master will in all probability be between Philadel i phia candidates. Robert E. Lee has opposing him Dr. J. W. Sutton and John D, Morris. These candidates all stand high in the order and the competition while spirited was friendly. Delegates were ready to make war on any attempt at fac tional lights, the majority favoring harmony. It was the belief that Lee was a favorite. However, Dr. Sut ton had an enthusiastic following. Local ( and.date Dr. Charles H. Crampton of this city, expected to have some opposi tion in the race for district deputy grand master. It was said there would not likely be any competition for the other offices. John Fields of Steelton, had no opposition for the office of State secretary. He has held this important office for some time and has a host of friends who recognize his efficiency and ac tivity in the order. Delegates were not certain whether it would Le pos sible to complete the election before the parade. It is also probable that a session will be held to-morrow morning.

Zion Church, and was followed by the business sessions. Reports presented and discussed were on insurance, Household of Ruth, auditing and other branches of the order. The latter is in a nourishing condition throughout the State, the increase In membership being large. After Next Convention There is likely to be a spirited contest for the convention next year. Lancaster is making a strong bid and offers big inducements for the meeting in 1920. Delegates from Connellsville and Monesscn are also showing activity. It is said the con vention belongs in the western part of the State next year.' Pittsburgh is backing the Connellsville delegates. The parade this afternoon was the big feature of the day.
