and hear the smoothest running Fox, harvesters ever built If m m ii You’ll find a lot to see but not very much to hear when you check out the new Fox hum mers Thac’s because Fox engineering went all out to bring you new forage harvesters so smooth running you hardly can hear the harvester over the sound of your tractor. We use rubber drives and rubber gathering belts instead of chains, a new almost vibra tionless rotary knife on the corn head, big tapered roller cylinder and gear box bearings for smoothness, a solid PTO drive shaft with center support bearing to eliminate “whip” All this, plus special safety and acoustical shielding and precision component fit, results LANCASTER COUNTY GRUMELLI FARM SERVICE LONGENECKER FARM SUPPLY FARMERSVILLE EQUIPMENT, INC.

It means low friction, low-wear operation. Also important, it means lower power demands Before you buy any forage harvester, ask your Fox dealer to demonstrate a new hum mer for you.

Regional growth has often tended to be a disequilibrium process, and national con cern for regional economic unbalances frequently calls for government intervention. Economic advances shift from region to region, partly in response to impacts of government programs on: increasing resource availabilities, advancing technology, expanding markets, conquering space, and building institutions. That was the thrust of a presentation here this summer at the annual meeting of the American Agricultural Economics Association. Clark Edwards - An economist with the Economic Research Service (ERS), U.S. Department of Agriculture - told the meeting that despite recent gains, symptoms of rural urban imbalance remain. Nationally, rural income per capita is around three fourths of urban income.

Well-being varies among geographic areas despite pubbc and private efforts aimed at both rural and regional development. Advances in rural farm and nonfarm technology were seen as an important source of growth during the past decade. Programs to improve productivity of capital through public and private efforts to modernize plants, and to improve labor productivity through education and on-the-job training were cited. Federal programs to expand markets for rural products are mostly focused on exports. Developing domestic for markets rural products depends more on local public and private activity. Spatial changes to enhance rural growth depend largely on improvements in tran sportation and com munications. Coalitions of local governments, such as raulticounty planning districts, focus on over coming regional and spatial problems. MAIN OFFICE: 27 N. Church St Quarryville 786-7361
