—Lancaster Farming. Saturday, April 30'. 1977 64 Berks politicians questioned ByLAURELSCHAEFFER Berks County Reporter LEESPORT, Pa. - Berks County political candidates met at the Berks County Agricultural Center on April 22, to participate in a “Meet the Candidate program” sponsored by the Berks County Farmer’s Association. The candidates included five nominees for the Court of Common Pleas. They were:. Thomas J. Eshelman; William R. Bernhart; Forrest G. Schaffer, Jr.; Donald F. Spang; and Robert L. Van Hoove. Three candidates for county treasurer: Stella C. Kompa; Charles B. Coleman, and Robert E. Blum, were also in attendance as well as five of the ten candidates for jury commissioner. They were: Joseph G. Natale, George A. Harakal, James D. Abbott, the, father of candidate Sheldon M. Meyer; and Gene D. Killian. Each candidate was given three minutes for opening remarks, - which was then followed by a question and answer period. Questions submitted by the audience were screened by a panel Prices of most garden seeds have gone up con siderably in the last year or two, but this cost is still a minor part of the total ex pense of raising a garden. Reasons for the seed price rise include adverse weather conditions during the past two years in the West, where most of the garden seed production industry is located. Another factor has been increasing competition from other crops which might be grown more profitably on the same land. Propane is traditionally used by nurseries for greenhouse heating, water heating for plant ger mination, heat for frost prevention systems as well as for offices, particularly in those areas of the country beyond the reach of natural gas mains or where there are shortages. It is a ver satile fuel, cost efficient, clean burning, safe and readily available. Mowing a Kentucky bluegrass-red fescue type lawn closer than IV4 inches gradually weakens and eventually kills the grass, cautions Henry W. Indyk, Extension specialist in turf management at Cook College, Rutgers University. The end result is a thinned out lawn infested with a variety of weeds. XXX TRY A CLASSIFIED AD! and given to Charles Mohn, mediator. Mohn in turn ad'’ ;ssed them to the ap propriate group of can didates. Each candidate was given one minute to answer each question. The candidates for judge were asked how they felt about plea bargains, and if' they felt additional judges were needed in Berks County. Candidates seeking the office of county treasurer were questioned on their views of the present system of selecting doe permits and the necessity of having so many costly tax collectors for the county. The present system, for selecting jurors was also questioned, as well as the amount of time the jury commissioner -candidates felt was necessary to fulfill the job. Many other questions were posed during the program which was concluded with a two minute closing statement from each of the candidates.
