Lancaster Heritage
Antique Show
During the early years of
the settlement of Lancaster,
silversmithing was a
thriving trade.
' Shortly after Lancaster
was founded in 1730 as the
oldest inland town in North
America, the village found
itself to be an important
point on the trade route
between England and the
Ohio Country. Silversmiths
came here to produce silver
items as part of that trade.
Some of that silver, much

Lawn Care
With warmer weather due
to arrive at any time, many
property owners will be
outside getting the garden
and lawn in summer-time
condition. A good raking
might be one place to start
before any lime or fertilizer
is applied; this will remove
excess trash and old grass
from last year. Lime should
be applied when needed
according to a complete soil
test, followed by moderate
fertilizer applications. In
many cases the weed killers
can be applied with the
fertilizer thus saving a
separate spraying operation.
Mowing can be started when
grass growth gives anything
to mow; some areas of rank
growth may need mowing
before the entire area.
