The Mount Joy BULLETIN SECOND SECTION RED ROSE VALLEY FARM & HOME NEWS SUPPLEMFNT VOL. 63. NO. 18 “Over the Back Fence” by Max Smith THERE SEEMS to be a lot of speculation the amount of winter wheat that farmers are going to plant this fall; with the defeat of the government wheat control program earlier this year, some may feel that the acreage will jump in large pro- I doubt if this will happen and sincerely hope that it doesn’t; there will be little value in adding more bushels of wheat to the existing abundance; however, livestock and poultry producers that plan and need the straw for bedding material, might be ec- onomically justified to produce what they portions. to feed the wheat grain need on their own farm. Max Smith CONSIDERABLE RESEARCH indicates that there may be a nutritional advantage for high-moisture shelled or ear corn silage in rations for fattening cattle. ies with dairy cows indicate pected in milk production, when cows .are .fed a high moisture corn that has been ensiled, or an equal amount of dry matter as dry corn. It is usually more economical to ensile the entire corn plant than any single part of it. HAVE YOU noticed some or your shade trees with a discolored or dead tip or edge on the leaves? If so, join the ranks of many of us who have trees suffering with leaf scorch. This results from the lack of adequate water. During the past six months very few parts of the county had sufficient rainfall to soak down to the tree root zone. The solution to the problem is to soak the soil around the tree roots every two weeks to a depth of two feet or more. This is not a disease; it is a moisture con- dition. OUR PENN STATE lawn ex- perts advise us to keep mow- ing the lawn in the fall as long as the grass will grow; many home-owners lose in- terest and ambition to mow the lawn in the fall when colder weather arrives. In the case of the bluegrass lawn, the grass will grow faster in the fall months with the cooler weather and the larger amounts of rain fall. Don't put away the lawn mower until cold and freez- ing weather stops the growth of the grass. Long, matted grass on the lawn going into the winter may result in severe outbreaks of snow- mold.

This re- lates to the amounts of avail- able calcium, phosphorus, and potash in the soil. POTATO GROWERS report a pretty good crop of second- growth in some fields due to the delayed rainfall. These potatoes and others not grading as firsts, may be fed to dairy cattle, steers, and hogs. It usually takes about three pounds of potatoes to equal one pound of corn. They may be fed raw to cat- tle but be cooked before be- ing fed to hogs. They may be chopped into the silo as silage but should be mixed with some dry matter such as hay and straw. Interested growers are urged to obtain additional information. concerning It's Sundaes Summer or winter, sun- daes take their place as the most delightful of treats.

Crane, PhD., M. D. Cal indicates some of the latest scientific methods that are used in modern salesmanship. But all star sales men learn to watch the “psychic weathervanes” to see which way the winds of customer interest are blowing Send for the booklet below. It is valuable to clerics, teachers and doctors as well as commercial salesmen. CASE M-455: Cal H., aged 35, is a talented automobile salesman. Dr. Crane,” he said, “we have a large display room with several tables lined up in a row. “We let the prospect and his wife sit on one side while the salesman faces them. “After we have put on our sales talk and the prospect is still uncertain, we salesmen may then hear a tiny click- click, for what the customer doesn’t know, is that we have a hidden microphone at each table. “The Big Boss thus can listen to what goes on. And when he thinks it wise, he signals us with this click- click. “That sound doesn’t mean a thing to an outsider, but it tells us salesmen to excuse ourselves for a minute so the prospect and his wife can be left alone. “We then hasten into the inner office where the Big Boss is sitting at the micro- phone. “Then we all eavesdrop to find out what is the final ‘straw’ that seems to be tip: ping the scales against our sale. “Generally, the husband and wife will make some such remark as ‘If they'd just allow us $50 more on our old car as a trade-in, we'd make the deal’. “Well we salesmen then casually saunter back to the prospect, as if we have never heard a word he has been saying to his wife, and then we summarize our chief sales points, but end with the re- mark that his car has been kept in very good condition, so maybe we could stretch a point and allow him an extra $50 on the trade-in.

A feasibility study made by Buchart-Horn Engineers, York, outlining this proposed system was taken under stu- dy Tuesday night by Marietta Borough Council. The joint system serving the three areas was one of three proposals offered by Buchart-Horn. The second would have Irishtown and Marietta oper- ating under one system and Maytown operating alone in another. The third alternative presented would have a sing- le system serving Marietta and Irishtown and Maytown being served under a separ- ate system. Although exact cost esti- mates were not disclosed, the engineering firm's represen- tative Harry Wagner told Marietta’s councilman the three community combined system would cost less. For this system, the cost would be “within several hundred thousand dollars of (Turn to page 4) Aids Medical Planning An Elizabethtown man, D. Paul Witmer, former resident of the borough, was one of those responsible for plann- ing to start a medical center by the Milton S. Hershey Foundation, announcement of which came a few weeks ago. Mr. Witmer was chairman of the board of managers of the Milton Hershey School in 1959 when it celebrated the 50th anniversary of its founding, and plans for the medical center were begun in that year. The new institution will become the seventh medical Heart Disease At New High Heart disease claimed 52,- 751 deaths in Pennsylvania last year, a new high for the disease which has been the principal cause of death in the state for 39 years. The State Highway Depart- ment said the previous high was 51,735 deaths in 1961. Arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) and coronary heart disease (disease of ves- sels feeding the heart muscle) accounted for 39,803 deaths or 75 per cent of all heart disease deaths, the Depart: ment said. Dr. Charles state health secretary, said there are promising new drugs which can effectively lower blood pressure and diets which can assist in lowering blood fats, some- times associated with heart disease. L. Wilbar, school in Pennsylvania. Five of them are in Philadelphia — Jefferson, Hahnemann, University of Pennsylvania, Temple University and Wom- en’s. The University of Pitts- burgh Medical School is only one outside of Philadelphia. The new medical center in no way will detract from the work carried out with the boys’ schools. To be known as the Milton Hershey Medical Center, the school will enroll about 300 students, and the hospital will be able to accomodate between 200 and 300. It probably will be located on a tract of land bounded on the north by the Hershey- Harrisburg road; on the south by Wood street; and in the approximate area of the west- ernmost Hershey Farm. The hospital will be oper- ated by the Pennsylvania State University. Construe- tion for the hospital is sched- uled to begin in one year, and first students may be ad- mitted on a limited basis within two years. Fifty million dollars have been earmarked by the trus- tee for the medical center. Approximately half of that amount will be used in the construction of the center; the other half will go into an endowment fund to under- write the center’s operations.
