in town which he considers
in need of immediate action.
One he mentioned, is along
the north bank of the railroad
right of way opposite the 100
block of east Main and the
other is in the area immedi-
ately west of the swimming
pool.
Of sewage, he was emphat-
ic that every place in Mount
Joy should be connected with
the sewer system. The bor-
ough health department, he
said, needs reorganization to
accomplish its purpose in the
community and he believes
that the borough should take
steps to make possible con-
demnation of housing which
does not meet standards.
He suggested cutting weeds
to attack the rat problem.
Mayor Henry Zerphey ° said
that steps are being taken.
Council read a list of about a
dozen prpoerties which still
are not connected to sewage.
‘Final’ notices, however, have
been issued by the borough's
attorney, it was reported.
Health Department President
Jay Eicherly and Dr. Kendig
are to be invited to council
for its next meeting to talk
about reorganization. .
Council, on a bid of $1,105
sold the trailer which has
been used as a radio-tele-
phone emergency center. It is
parked along Apple Tree al-
ley.
Council will hold its Sep-
tember meeting on Sept. 8,
instead of the 7th, which is
Labor Day.
‘A special hearing date for
a zoning variance request at
Jacobs and Apple Tree alley
was set for August 24.
Damage amounting to $540
was done to five parking me-
ters recently when a {truck
ran amuck on Main street,
damaged the Joy theatre and
the home’ of George Reigle.
Council gave restricted ap-
proval of a development pro-
posal which includes six lots
on the south side of Wood St.
and located a block west of
Market avenue.
A citizen from the Florin
Ward appeared before coun-
cil and requested that Pink
alley be paved.

THE TOBACCO harvest is
developing rapidly and many
of the early plantings are
ready for topping. The prac-
tice of using one of the chem-
icals to control suckers is get-
ting quite common and grow-
ers that are planning to use
this labor-saving practice are
urged to keep several things
in mind. In the first place the
majority of the plants in the
field (75%) should be in blos-
som before the field is topped;
if chemicals are used on imma-
ture plants the quality of the
leaf will be lowered. Second-
ly, the suggestions of the
manufacturer should be fol-
lowed in relation to the am-
ount to apply per acre and
the time to apply. All of these
practices are needed if the
suckers are to be controlled
without hurting the quality of
the crop.
THE MONTH of August is a
good time to get started to
renovate an old pasture or
prepare ground for a new
pasture seeding Mixtures
sowed during late August or
early September have given
the best results in this part
of the state. This same timing
holds true for new lawns or
turf areas that are.to be seed-
ed. The ground should be
tested for lime and fertilizer
needs and any applications
worked into the topsoil. In
many cases old permanent
pastures have gotten too wee-
dy or include unwanted gras-
ses that are not very produc-
tive during the summer
months. The improved strains
of grasses may be seeded to
improve the production of
these areas. A complete kill
of the old sod and vegetation
is necessary to get a good
seedbed. -
NUMEROUS office calls re-
flect the concern of many
home gardeners about the
curling of the leaves on the
new occupational privilege
tax has raised more than $20,-
000 already for 1970.
Council voted to return re-
cording fees to two property
owners and to exonerate three
others from payment. Origin-
ally, council has asked proper-
ty owners involved in the
Ziegler street water drainage
situation, to pay necessary re-
cording fees for establishment
of right of way clearances.

This is very difficult to con-
trol and is usually not a sign
of any harmful disease. In
most cases it is a physical con-
dition caused by changes in
temperatures and soil mois-
ture conditions. In order to
keep this condition to a mini-
mum I would suggest that the
ground between the rows and
plants be mulched in order to
maintain a more regular sup-
ply of soil moisture. This can
be lawn clippings, peat moss,
tanbark, or black plastic. In
addition due to the frequent
rains, it would be best to
spray the plants weekly with
a fungicide such as Maneb.
This would help prevent the
blight or other fungus diseas-
es.
THE EFFORT to prevent the
additional spread of hog cho-
lera in this part of the state
should be the responsibility
of everyone. We urge hog
producers to comply with the
60-day isolation period set up
by the Pennsylvania Depart-
ment of Animal Industry.
This time is needed to be cer-
tain the newly-purchased ani-
mals are not infected and will
not contaminate the rest of
the herd. This isolation peri-
od applies to both feeder pigs
and to purebred foundation
stock that. are brought into
the county. Continued cau-
tion is needed to prevent pro-
ducers from bringing the in- r

STAY WITH YOUR BOAT
If your boat turns over in
the water stay with it even if
you are a good swimmer.
Many persons who drown
from capsized boats are swim-
mers. Float the boat into the
shore by holding on and pad-
dling if there is no possible
rescue available, says Joe S.
Cardenuto, extension recrea-
tion specialist at Penn State.
The inscription on the Lib-
erty Bell —‘‘Proclaim liberty
throughout the land unto all
the inhabitants thereof’ — is
from the Book of Leviticus
in the Bible.

Electricity can be a hazard
anywhere and nroJst home-
owners manage to double and
triple the hazard. Ecre are
some points to minimize the
danger:
@ Don’t overload outlets.
® Don't run cords under
rugs. The wear and tear on
the insulation will eventual-
ly break through it, creating
a fire hazard.
® Don’t run cords too close
to radiators (or over them, un-
der them, on them). Again,
there’s a danger of damaging
the insulation.

THe Prayer of the Week
The Prayer this week is by Brooke F. Westcott.
“O Lord God, in Whom we live, and move, and
have our being, open our eyes that we may beholdThy
Fatherly presence ever about us. Draw our hearts to
Thee with the power of Thy love. Teach us to be
anxious for nothing, and when we have done what Thou
hast given us to do, help us, O God our Savior to leave
the issue to Thy wisdom. Take from us all doubt and
mistrust. Lift our thoughts up to Thee in heaven, and
make us to know that all
things are possible to us
through Thy Son our Redeemer. Amen.
