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.

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.
