The study cited the fact that the watershed embraced some of the state’s most valuable and productive farmland. Eour covered bridges, all of which are on the National Register of Histone places, span its waters. And nearby is the former Woods Chromite Mine, which was once the source of almost ail of the world’s chrome ore. •For these and many other reasons, the Octoraro has been given top priority as a candidate for the scenic nvers system,” Wenger said. "The idea also received a big boost from the Lancaster County Planning Commission, agricultural and environmental organizations, and other individuals and groups,” he noted. 749 FEWER PARTS A 100-FOOT LENGTH OF BERG GUTTER CHAIN HAS 749 FEWER PARTS THAN MOST OTHER BARN CLEANERS Berg Gutter Cham is a senes of one piece links hooked end to end. which makes it easy to remove links and eliminates the need for all those pms rivets and bolls The heavy concentration ol metal in the hooks and at the pull points gives the Berg Cham Link mote pull strength than ordinary links The links are 7V 2 inches long 2 1 4 inches wide and i/j inch thick and weigh over two pounds Fach link is forged tiom special alloy forging steel in a single piece No worry about corrosion OUICOS 6VEBVTHING SEE YOUR LOCAL BERG DEALER SAMPSON SILO DONALD UPPERMAN HONESDALE SPREADING RO VEND ALE SUPPLY RO2, Box 61 1126 N.

This year, the Delaware Soybean Board is providing funds for eleven market development and research projects that directly benefit Delaware producers. The funds are collected through a check-off system, that enables farmers to finance their own self help programs. A total of $59,500. was granted for projects in 1983. To earn a place in the state’s scenic river system, a stream must have unusual qualities in at least one of five basic classifications, Wenger said. The Octoraro rated “outstanding" in both the scenic and pastoral categories. The lawmaker said the bill authorizing the Octoraro’s designation will assure the free flowing character of the stream. "No dams will be permitted, and all state agencies will be required to do whatever they can to con serve and protect its pastoral and scenic qualities and its historic character,” he said. He emphasized that the scenic river designation will not affect existing property rights. Lan downers will be free to use their land as they wish, although they will be encouraged to follow practices in keeping with the scenic river guidelines.
