BERWICK - Carol
Slusser Fraind, a resident of
Berwick who specializes in
paintings of farms and
farmers will hold her third
one woman exhibit May 18-
June 16 at Bloomsburg State
College, Kehr Union
Building. The exhibit will be
open between the hours of 8
a.m. and 4 p.m. May 18-27
and from 8 a.m.-ll p.m.
daily thereafter.
A native of the Berwick
area and a graduate of
Bloomsburg State College,
Fraind has taught science
for the past 12 years in the
Berwick School District and
is currently working on
certification in art from
Kutztown State College. She
recently won first prize in
the Hazelton juried fine arts
festival held earlier this
month.
This show will be a
collection of approximately
35 paintings centering upon
rural and agricultural
people and themes.
Watercolor and acrylics are
her favorite media, but she
also utilizes other media to
achieve certain affects.
Fraind states her purpose
in painting is far more im
portant than any of the
awards she has won. Her
artistic undertakings reflect
her “rural background and
perhaps these paintings will
make people more aware of
the forces that are
eliminating family farms
and open spaces. Un
fortunately, certain groups
in our society look at rolling
fields and quiet forests only
in terms of how they can be
exploited to make big
profits. In the few years that
I’ve been painting, I have
noticed how each farm is
unique different in some
way from every other
farm.”
She continues, “No (Hie
will every stop progress and
its relentless encroachment,
hot perhaps communities
will learn to guide these
changes toward more in
telligent and aesthetic
results. Allowing people to
see the uncommon splendor
in die commonplace is the
first step toward having
them appreciate and try to
preserve the things that
really count”
One of her worts will be
included in a calendar
printed by the McCleery-
Cummings firm this year.

WASHINGTON, D.C. -
Old reserve agreement
wheat may no longer be
removed from the farmer
owned grain reserve without
penalty since the national
average mid-month price for
April is $3.40 per bushel, 10
cents below the $3.50 reserve
release level, announced
Ray Fitzgerald, executive
vice president of the Com
modity Credit Corporation.

Union announced January 4.
Corn and sorghum also
may not be removed without
penalty, Fitzgerald said.

while barley and nee remain
in call status, he said.
Fitzgerald said the
reserve status decisions
were made .following a

agricultural price report
released here April 30.
' Storage earnings resumed
May 2 in all states for wheat
and continue in effect for
corn, oats and sorghum. No
storage payments will be,
made for barley and nee.
Data used by CCC in
determining the release and
call levels include five-day
average pnees as reported
by USDA’s Agricultural
Marketing Service (which
show pnees bid by buyers at
selected markets) and the
month-end report of prices
received by farmers issued
.by USDA’S Economics,

report shows the previous
month’s average price and
the current mid-month
price.
