The New Holland Supply
Co., Inc. planned an “open
house” for Friday and Satur
day this week to introduce
Lancaster Countians to its new
facilities on Route 23, about
one-half mile west of New Hol
land.
The firm, which distributes
animal health products, and
farm supplies and chemicals,
had many representatives of
its suppliers on hand to an
swer questions.
The new warehouse was
built to give better customer
service, according to- manager
John H. Hess. He added that
material is moved in and out
of the warehouse by machine,
improving efficiency, and that
the new store has increased
display space for the benefit of
the walk-in customers. There
are ample parking spaces, Hess
said, and a small meeting room
that will hold up to 40 people
The firm now has six sales
men on the road covering
Pennsylvania, Maryland, and
fringe areas in New Jersey,
Virginia, and West Virginia.
Wait until next spring to
prune fruit trees. Ones pruned
now will be more susceptible
to injury caused by severe
winter weather. Wounds heal
better after sprang pruning
