REAL ESTATE TO BE OFFERED AT 12:00 NOON LUNCHSERVED Mitbler and Shelter Auctioneers For information about Real Estate, contact Wininer Coughenour • 2fi7-404S- The Delaware legislature is having trouble dealing with a bottle bill and it ap pears that not much will happen for at least another year. There is a law on the books in Delaware, but its enact ment depends on Maryland and Pennsylvania coming up with their own bottle bills. And that doesn’t appear to be happening. So what does the throw away bottle problem have to do with agriculture? Quite a lot, when you consider that a generous share of all of those con tainers wind up on agricultural lands. Con sequently, as a group, far mers are probably the biggest supporters of legislation that would require a deposit and thus might assure return of a sizable number of those bothersome missiles. You don’t think it’s a problem until you walk along the edge of a farmer’s field adjoining a major highway. The ground is absolutely 9:30 A.M. littered with bottles and cans, bearing all of the beer labels you can think of. For some reason the throw-away public seems to confine its beverage con sumption almost totally to beer. There is an occasional Coke or Pepsi container, but most of the mess is created by all that gusto stuff. On a photography assignment recently, I watched a farmer waste half an hour of his valuable spring-planting time searching out and removing hundreds of bottles along the edge of a field that bordered a roadway. It just happened that he was within an easy bottle throw of a prosperous liquor store and so his bottle problem was probably bigger than most. But it was obvious that something needed to be done. I helped him walk a half mile of road frontage, removing these dangerous little containers that can destroy valuable implement tires, or ruin the innards of expensive farm machinery. While the alcoholic beverage lobby pressures against a bottle bill and the various other interests debate pro and con, the farmer is left with the problem. You can bet not many of those lobbyists have a bottle problem.

Bradley, Auct. cost that bottle deposits would bring to their drinking habits. But they don’t clean up the messes either. In fact,- there are only two groups of people that I’ve ever seen cleaning up throw aways the highway department' crews, who occasionally police some of the roadwavs and the farmers who must clear their own land to protect their interests. If Delaware’s legislature can’t come to grips with a law that will provide for a refundable deposit on a returnable bottle or can, then maybe another kind of law would be appropriate How about some kind of bounty on dead beer bottles? The bounty could be claimed only by legitimate farmers who register in advance as bottle trappers. They could then roam at will over the land they control, grabbing up any liquid container they’re able to flush out. These could then be taken to a collection point where the bounties would be paid. Money for the bounty program could come from a tax on the bottler or perhaps the drinker. Both seem to benefit from the packaging and use of these products, so perhaps both should pay for the mess that’s created. Why should farmers continue to provide a free dumping ground for all of those useless containers? Why should they spend time picking up the messes and why should they endure the damage those containers cause? Here’s a bit of irony for you. How about a dairy farmer who spends time picking up beer bottles so they won’t wind up as broken fragments in a hay bale that might eventually be eaten by a milk cow. I’ve never seen a milk 10 O’clock A.M Lancaster Farming, Saturday, June 7,1980—£17 bottle thrown from a car window. Dairy farmers are as much in the beverage business as Anheuser Busch. No question it’s a different beverage and it reaches a different market in a dif ferent package. But milk is a bottled product, it does quench the thirst,' provide the body with much needed liquid, and better yet it provides a lot of vitamins, minerals and other nutritious things. But when you’re going for the gusto, you don’t go for milk. Instead you go for one USD A opens ag trade office in Warsaw WARSAW, POLAND - The U.S. Department of Agriculture Tuesday opened an agricultural trade office here to serve as a focal point for servicing exports of U.S. agricultural products to Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, and Romania. These countries were a market for almost $1 billion in U.S. agricultural products last fiscal year. The Warsaw office will help nonprofit trade associations currently working in East Europe under continuing agreements with the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Foreign Agricultural Ser vice as market development cooperators. It will also serve marketing groups representing individual American states, individual U.S. exporters, as well as East European importers looking for suppliers. The Warsaw trade office will be opened by James H. Starkey, USDA’s Under Secretary for International Affairs. Stefan Zawodzinski, Vice Minister of the Polish Ministry of Agriculture and other officials from Eastern Europe also will attend the ceremonies.

What a slap in the face! Not only do you ignore his product but you litter his fields with the competition’s containers. Farmers need relief from this annoyance and if the bottle bill isn’t the answer, then it’s tune for some creative thought into what is. If! you don’t like my bounty program, then let’s hear a better idea. Trade Office is located at 19 Wiejska Street. The director of the trade office is Charles J. Larsen who joined USDA last year to take the post in Warsaw. Before that he was employed by the Holstein-Friesian Association of America or its subsidiaries for about 23 years. Among his positions were executive secretary of HFAA and executive vice president and general manager of Holstein- Friesian Services, a sub sidiary. Under the Agricultural Trade Act of 1978, Congress authorized the creation of between six and 25 agricultural trade offices in key trade regions of the world. Five trade offices are already open: one in Miami to serve the northern Caribbean and Central American regions; one in Manama, Bahrain for the Arabian Gulf area; one in Hamburg covering West Germany; one m Singapore for Southeast Asia; and one in Seoul covering Korea. In addition, there is a similar office in London, opened in 1978 under other authority. At 11:00 A.M.
