Local grangers oppose
percentage gas tax
OAKRYN - Fulton
Grange No. 66 met Monday,
8 p.m. at the Grange Hall in
Oakryn with Master Thomas
C. Galbreath presiding.
Members went on record
in opposition to the proposed
change m the method of
taxing gasoline in Penn
sylvania from eleven cents
per gallon to a six percent
sales tax which would add
more to the already high
price of gasoline and as the
prices increases so would the
rate of this tax.
The proposal would also
increase the amount
allocated to mass transit for
large cities, depriving rural
areas of their share of the
gasoline tax to maintain
their highways.
The Lecturer, Mrs.
Howard W. Miller Jr.,
reminded members of the
photo, art, music and talent
contests and announced a
plan for members to buy a
brick, at a cost of $3. each,
for the State Grange
Headquarter’s new chim
ney.
She suggested that people
should examine their home
owner insurance coverage to
be sure it is adequate. She
also announced the next
meetmg of Oakryn Semor
Citizens for March 19.
The youth committee held
a code-reading class
February 23rd. at the home
of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas C.
Galbreath with 20 adults and
10 children attending. They

Open dating explained
YORK The Penn
sylvania Department of
Agriculture has required a
rune day open dating of fluid
milk since 1974.
The purpose of an open
date on any perishable food
is to encourage proper
rotation by store personnel
and consumers so that
consumers buy and use the
oldest products first.
Look for the printed or
stamped open dates on the
top of paper containers or
the sides of plastic jugs. Milk
processed on March 8, for
example, will have a date of
INC.
WEDNESDAY, MARCH 12
THURSDAY, MARCH 13
Mrs. William Taylor, a
certified emergency medical
technician, presented the
program and showed a film
“New Pulse Of Life” on
cardiopulmonary resuscita
tion. Mrs. Taylor explained
several techniques and
Clifford Holloway ID and
William Taylor demon
strated methods of applying
artificial respiration to
victims of suffocation, heart
failure, choking and
drowning.
Miss Solahco, Diane Marie
Michels, will present a
program of vocal and guitar
music at the next meeting,
March 10. There will be a
slide presentation on Ice
Storms at the March 24th
meeting. H.H. Haverstick
Jr. will speak on land
preservation at a Grange
public meeting in April.
March 17 or 3/17. Either is
acceptable.
Open dates don’t tell you
how long a product is good.
Consumers and distributors
determine that by proper
handling practices. Joan
Lamberson,
economist, recommends
keeping danyproducts away
from light and storing them
in the refrigerator at 40° F
and below. Close the con
tamer immediately after
pouring milk and return it to
the refrigerator. Be sure to
rotate containers, using the
oldest first.
