Penn State Sends Ag Time Capsule
100 years, the certificate of depos it
will have an estimated value of
$86,000. That money will be
designated for future agricultural
research at Penn State.
People who are part of the agri
cultural community will also be
part of the heritage the time cap
sule will provide. The time capsule
will include photographs of fami
lies or their farms on in their
agriculture-related businesses,

these families to the agricultural
community of the year 2087.
The time capsule, a glass dome
that is 30 inches high, was donated
by Coming Glass of New York. It
will be filled with helium and sea
led. After Ag Progress Days, it will
be placed on display in the lobby of
the Agricultural Administration
Building on the Penn State
campus.
At Ag Progress Days, the lime

natural moisture removal process provides less shrink and
higher test weights. You don’t “cook” the quality out of your
crop.
AeroDry’s computer controls moisture levels day and night
without baby-sitting. You make the profit the elevator makes,
by selling your crop when you want - without moisture
dockage.
If you’re serious about making more money on your corn
crop... you’ll call AeroDry before the fall rush. Farm proven
from the midwest to the east coast - AeroDry is FARM

they will include samples of acid
rain and of stream water now con

time simply were not thorough or
accurate enough. Researchers of
the future would probably
