Annual Meeting
Shifts in conservation techni
ques needed to reflect changes
in American life will be the tb
pic of a conference to be held
November 12-14, Summit Hotel
in Uniontown.
The convention of 400 Penn
sylvania land and water conser
vation officials will be jointly
sponsored hy the State Soil
Conservation Commission and
the Pennsylvania Association
of Soil Conservation District
Directors.
Amos Funic of Millersville
Rl, Chairman of the Lancaster
County Soil Conservation Dis
trict, pointed out that conser?
vation programs designed to
meet the needs of an America
that was largely rural at the
time must be adapted and up
dated.
“Today’s conservation pro
grams,” Punk said, “must be
geared to resource development
not only on farms but on land
lield by suburbanites, indus
tries. and public agencies.”
Funk said ithat serious eros
ion and water management
problems on non-agncultural
land require new educational
techniques and services m ad
dition to traditional land
planning procedures developed
by soil conservation districts
for farmeis.
The State Soil Conservation
Commission will hold a meet
ing in conjunction with the
conference, according to Leland
Jt. Bull, state agriculture sec
retary and chairman of the
Commission.
Conference hosts are Ithe
directors of the Coun
ty Soil Conservation District.
The Conference is expected to
be the largest ever held in the
state, according to Donald Ste
phens of Belle Vernon, Fayette
chan man.
Stephens said 61 of Penn
s\ Ivania’s 67 counties have
now organized districts.

Very little field work was
able to be done on Pennsylvan
ia farms during March as snow
cover the first half of the
month and wet fields the last
half prevented access to fields
However, record warm temper
atures and strong winds dur
ing the first week of April
dried the fields rapidly and by
April 10 plowing and planting
activities were nearly on "■ Im
dule.
Surface soil moisture was
sufficient throughout the Key
stone State as a result of snow
melt but sub-soil moisture is
still short, following last year’s
drought, in many areas. There
fore normal or better rain fall
will be needed during growing
season to keep crops growing.
Based on an estimated yie’d
of 29.0 bushel per acre on
504.000 acres the 1963 wheat
crop is expected to total 14,-
616.000 bushels. If realized
this will be 16 percent above
1962 production but consider
ably below average and the
third lowest of record - ex
ceeding only the 1961 and
1959 crops.
Wheat fields came through
the bitter cold winter in gen
erally good condition as snow
cover offered adequate protec
tion except in localized areas
where wind swept fields tree ot
snow.
Stocks of all grains on Penn
sylvania farms on A.pnl 1
were down substantially from
a year earlier and fiom the
5-year (1957-61) April 1 aver
age Corn stocks at 22.1 mil

Some 'changes are being made
in ithe schedule for the “Book
mobile” of the Lancaster Free
Public Library with an eye to
giving better service to more
■people on the same amount of
funds, Alice S. Heilman, act
ing county librarian said this
week.
The complete bookmobile
schedule has been changed
with many of the smaller stops
being dropped, larger, stronger
stops retained and patrons'en
couraged to patronize the new
locations, she said.
“In an effort to serve more
people more effectively we are
planning to make some book
mobile service available within
a five to ten mile radius oi each
atop, and to stop longer per
iods at each Ideation. You are
encouraged to keep the list of
all stops and time periods han
dy, and to use any which seem
convenient to you alt any time.”
'Locations and days are plan
ned in such a way that the
bookmobile will 'be in some
part of each quarter of the
county four days per month.
Patrons who live reasonably
close to stops in another quar
ter of the county have the ad
vantage of an additional day or
two in another week, in which
to visit the bookmobile.
“Try it with ns, won’t you?,”
She asked. “If, after a reason
able period, this new program
proves unsatisfactory, we shall
be happy to study it again.”
