STATE'S MARKETS
NOW NUMBER 131
Most of Them Are in Smaller
Towns of Pennsylvania
Nowadays
Twenty-three of the sixty-one mu
nicipalities in Pennsylvania which
have public markets are places with
less than 10,000 population, accord
ing to a survey of the markets of
the State made by the State Bureau
of Markets. The bureau has heard
of 131 markets. The sixty-one
places reporting them are in thirty
eight counties. In all officials of
486 cities and boroughs were asked
about market facilities and the re
sults indicate that many officers
favor establishment of markets
either on a municipal or corporate
basiß, while others asked for State
assistance in getting the nearby food
supply to their people in some other
way than farmers selling by outcry
through the streets or delivering
only to commission merchants or
grocers. Several of the reports were
to the effect that efforts were under
way to get farmers assured that
there would be a regular demand
for their produce.
The market survey developed 58
curb markets, practically all used
by farmers and 73 enclosed markets
In which city merchants also had
stalls, but in which farmers pre
dominated. Another fact was that
in twelve cities markets were aban
doned, some of them after having
been conducted for a long period of
years. The bureau has agreed to
give such assistance as is possible
in establishing marjtet and to get
farmers into touch with the people
of the towns and also to demonstrate
ways by which towns can attract
farmers! by publishing what is need
ed. ,
The bureau plans another survey
which will go into more details
about the markets.
