Joy, Pa. 17552 is Conservation GETTYSBURG The Adams County Conservation District is getting a helping hand from one of the most attractive technicians in the county’s history. Deborah Spain, a old graduate of Gettysburg College, has been helping to survey ponds, waterways, and subsurface drainage, and has been the “right hand-man” to the local Soil Service of fice’s technician William Mcdeaf. What makes Deb so unusual is that she was not from a farm and received her degree in English Literature rather than agriculture. Through CETA, the Comprehensive Em ployment Training Act, Deb has learned the art of peering through a Dumpey level on swelteringly hot Summer days, along with trudging through mud and dust that’s ankle deep while 'running the surveying rod during an engineering survey. , “It’s surprising how much you can learn when your working on the farm,” she said. Assisting McCleaf has given Deb a chance to learn about farm management practices such as manure storage facilities and stripcropping. According to Deb, there is not any part of the job she finds too difficult .What’s difficult she said, is the frustration of knowing that when she’s finished her year and a half of training there remains a question of whether she’ll be employed. more si fine shredding action for a wide variety of field conditions and a 13 Vi swath These units respond to big jobs, so well, you II breeze through the meanest jobs with just one pass over the field, allowing up to 100 acres of shredding per day ' Rugged, uncompromising muscle is built into'every feature, including a mas sive one-piece welded frame with 7 gauge deck and 1/4 x 12 steel bands, sturdy gear boxes with heavy-duty, precision cut steel gears, completely adjustable rear axle to match row spacmgs, 3 overlapping blades to eliminate streaking, and a cen tral gear box to provide uniform cutting in all conditions Model 166 (for 540 rptn tractors) and 1166 (1000 rpml are two bold new ways to conquer stalk shredding once and for all BVTGII IM\#* SEE THEM AT DUSIa law V YOUR BUSH HOG DEALER TODAY “It's not a Bush Hog if it doesn’t say Bush Hog."
