Dishong TAILOR Elizabethtown, Pa REPAIRING -- CLEANING and PRESSING Potato Situation The quantity of potatoes yet to be marketed this season seems like ly to be ‘less than usual, in pro- portion to the production in the late potato States. This is partie- ularly true in some important pro- ducing sections, such as New York where many late potatoes harvest- ed were showing injury from blight or field frost by Nov. 1st. The Philadelphia potato market was weak today, and prices declin- ed slightly, Offerings were more liberal and the demand continued slow. Pennsylvania round whites sold at $5.25 to $5.50 per 150 pound sack. Offerings of apples did not clean up as there were hardly enough sales to establish a market. On- ions were very slow and offerings were limited. String beans were more plentiful and the markets steady. Mushrooms were a little stronger. Sweet potatoes sold at a wide range in prices due to the quality and condition. Turkey Supplies Liberal Receipts of both live and dress- ed turkeys are fairly liberal on the Philadelphia market and the demand is rather light, according to the State and Federal Bureau of Markets. There are some small lots of nearby live turkeys but the bulk of this stock is coming from Virginia, while most of the dressed stock is coming from the West. Dealers expect that supplies will be heavier next week and that the market will show greater activity. Fancy live turkeys ranged from 38c to 40c per pound on Thursday while fair quality stock brought 36c to 38c. Reports from York county, Pennsylvania state that the crop is approximately 50% less than last year, while in some sections of Lancaster county the crop is about 10% heavier than in 1924. Wheat Feeds Firm Wheat feeds are firm with the demand generally firm. Prices for gluten feed and hominy feed are steady and the demand for these » | feeds about equals the offerings. Linseed meal was slightly easier and cotton seed meal is neglected, although prices are held firm by the mills, resellers appear weil supplied and some are shading pric es for transit stuff. Stocks of cot- tonseed at mills are heavy.

The new road built by the State Highway Department and county, known as the Watts Station pro- ject, passed through the properties of Colonel Duffy and the J. E. Baker Company. Col. Duffy claims his property contained 8.48 acres before the new road was built through it, The building of the road which runs 732 feet in length through the front yard of the property, took approximately an acre of land. A tract of two acres was cut off from the rest of the property by the road. The value of the Duffy property before the road was constructed was placed by real estate dealers at $25,000. Now it is not worth more than $15,000. Damages of $10,000 are therefore claimed. J. E. Baker Company through its secretary, G. D. Shenberger, of York, and on testimony of real estate dealers claims damage of ap proximately $4,600. The company owned a tract of land 1.23 acres in area near the railroad, and con- taining siding facilities, connecting with quarries in the rear. When the road was constructed .45 of an acre was used, and left a strip of land between the road and the railroad 85 feet long by 10 feet wide or .11 of an acre in area. It was ‘estified that the value of the tract for manufacturing pur- poses and railroad facilities was $4,500 and now it is worthless as it is impossible to cross the road to obtain the railroad facilities. The board of viewers will take the testimony under consideration and ages, to the court. —— CHANCE FOR RADIO BUILDER TO WIN FIFTY DOLLARS Has Lancaster county a boy ra- dio genius. Well, here is a chance to find out. If there is a juvenile radio builder in this county, he has now an opportunity to vie with the other youthful stu- dents of radio in winning fame and money through a competition conducted in connection with the Chicago Radio Show to be held in the Coliseum, November 17 to 22. With the idea of getting the best ideas in radio and to encour- age the youth of the nation to use their ingenuity and technical know- ledge to produce something new, the Stewart Warner Speedometer Corporation, one of the country’s largest manufacturers of raido sets announced today that a prize of fifty dollars would be awarded to the boy who is the constructor of the best “home made” raido set submitted. The products of the minds of the boy radio builders should be sent to the Chicago Ra- dio Show, Coliseum, Chicago where a committee of experts will exam- ine the sets of the young radio wizards and select the winner of the contest. Some of the best ideas which have helped build this infant in- dustry have come from the stu- dents of technical high schools. At the various radio shows of the country the school boy has exhib- ited radio sets which have received the commendation of the experts at these expositions, and it is with the hope of finding a boy radio genius, whose work might other- wise never receive the attention of the world, that prompted this man- ufacturing concern to offer this prize at the Chicago show. eae COUNTY FIREMEN MEET AT MANHEIM, NOV, 27 The Lancaster County Firemen’s Association will hold its November meeting in the hall of Hope Fire Company in Manheim, on Friday, evening, November 27.
