seen this year, a panel of
business and government
leaders from central Penn
sylvania predicts. The
forecast was made in
Harrisburg recently during
an economic symposium
sponsored by Com
monwealth National Bank.
Leading the turnaround
will be stronger activity in
the housing industry, con
sumer durables and
retailing, areas hard hit by
the recession, according to
the panel. Experts from
industry, government,
energy, retailing,
agriculture and banking also
concurred that economic
conditions in the region are
generally more favorable
than in the rest of the state
and country. South central
Pennsylvania’s current
unemployment rate,. for
example, is only half that of
the national figure.
“Much of what the public
reads or hears about the
nation’s economic problems
comes from Washington or
Wall Street,’’ said George L.
Morrison, Commonwealth
president and chief
executive officer. “Most
people, however, are con
cerned about how inflation,
recession and unem
ployment affect their daily
lives, far from the political
and financial power centers.
We have attempted to
provide shareholders and
customers of the Bank with
both the macro and micro
views of the economy.”
Highlights of the two-hour
discussion appear in a
special section of Com
monwealth’s 1974 annual
report.

MR. DAIRYMAN:
The dairy farmer in California, due to
his breeding and management and his
feeding program, has come up with a
;very high productive herd over the last
8 years
♦
t
These rolling herd averages are 54
pounds and up which is nothing un
common, they were forced to look into
better milking systems that would do
the job with a minimum of udder
irritations such as:
I—Low1 —Low Vacuum of 10 W' to IIV2”
2—Not flooding at the teat end
3—No back flushing of the teat canal
A —Proper pulsations per minute
