(From page 1)
ments along a private street
he propes to build through
the development.
The matter was referred to
the borough attorney.
Approval (by an 8-1 vote)
was given to install two new
street lights and to increase
the power for two others.
On a petition of citizens in
the area, new lights were ap~
proved at Terrace and Angle
streets and on Terrace be-
tween Angle and Orchard.
The increased wattage lights
are located at Market avenue
and Square street and in the
front of Friendship Fire
House. Cost of the total pro-
ect was given as $155.20 for
the next year, It was pointed
out that the borough spends
between $14,000 and $15,000
per year for street lighting.
Council ordered its proper-
ty committee to repair the
sidewalk in front of the bor-
ough building.
The action was based on
the expressed theory, “We
cannot expect people in the
borough to fix their sidewalks
if we don’t fix the borough’s
sidewalks.”
Approval was given to the
property committee to buy a-
bout $300 worth of guns and
ammunition for the police de-
partment.
The borough manager com-
mittee, which currently is
seeking applicants for the job
of Borough Manager, report-
ed that it has names of three
candidates.
On first reading, council
accepted two blocks of street
in the West Gate develop-
ment owned by the R. & H.
Development Co. Streets are
Florin avenue and Martin av-
enue which have been in gen-
eral use by the public but
have never been dedicated.
On resolution, subject to
future consideration, the
council adopted the new Don-
egal Area Comprehensive
Plan, as outlined at a recent
meeting at Donegal H. S. The
plan deals with future devel-
opment within the local area-
The Board of Health report-
ed that restaurant inspection
is being made in Mount Joy
and that all businesses are ex-
pected to be visited within

pated that there w'l. bz sub-

wtih the previous!y announc-
ed phasing out of cjarations
of these foreign subsidiaries
which losses are un‘ erterm-
inable at this time.

Over
The
Back
Fence
By Max Smith
THE HORSE industry is
growing as a more important
part of our general economy;
we refer mostly to pleasure
horses and statistics show
there are more than seven
million in our country today
which is double the number
of ten years ago. Horses pro-
vide some leisure-time pleas-
ure for one-third of our na-
tion’s population. For exam-
ple, last year in our country
more than a quarter-million
4-H Boys and Girls had horse
projects taking care of one or
more horses or ponies. While
race horses remain a small
percentage of the total horse
population, horse racing at-
tracts more spectators, over
70 million last year, than all
professional football and
baseball combined. Horses
are still important animals in
this country and many people
go to see them perform in
shows and rodeos all over the
country.
THE SHORTAGE of bedding
for our animals is a problem
on many farms; this has priv-
en the price of straw very
high to the point where it is
not a good buy. Most farm
animals need some type of
bedding to keep them clean
and to obtain efficient per-
formance; this is especially
true in the dairy business.
Straw substitutes van be con-
sidered such as wood or sha-
vings, sawdust, peanut hulls,
or shredded corn fodder;
with the large acres of corn,
the shredded fodder should
be utilized as much as pos-
sible,
IN A RECENT research ex-
periment at the University of
Nebraska cattle fed a soy-
bean meal supplement for 21
days at the start of the feed-
ing period gained more rapid-
ly and efficiently than cattle
fed a urea base supplement
for the entire feeding period.
It appears that a protein sup-
plement based on natural
protein is more desirable dur-
ing the starting stress period
for new feeder cattle. The ad-
ditional stress of the synthe-
tic protein, urea, may not be
desirable during the first sev-
eral weeks.
I'D LIKE to repeat the re-
minler that the proper rais-
ing of heifer calves for dairy
he: 1 replacements is very im-
por at. A Virginia dairy spe-
cia’ist has made the state-
m:at that the loss of a pure-
bred dairy heifer calf is like
burning a $100 bill. I am
sure that many local dairy-
men feel the same way. If the
calf raisers can answer “yes”
to these several questions,
then they are doing a good
job: “Is the feed bucket clean
enough to drink from” “is
the bedding in the calf pen
clean and dry enough to
sleep upon?” Calf pens should
be clean-smelling, dry, and
draft-free. Successful calf
raising now will improve the
value of the future herd.
The Prayer of the Week
The Prayer this week is by Francis of Sales
“O my great and good Creator, how much do I owe
Thee since Thou hast vouchsafed to take me in my
nothingness, in order to make me in Thy mercy what I
am. What shall I ever be able to do in order worthily
to bless Thy holy name and give thanks to Thine in-
estimable goodness?
“O my soul, know that
the Lord is thy God, He
made thee, and thou didst not make thyself. O God, I
am the work of Thy hands.
Bless thy God, O my soul;
let all that is within me bless His Holy Name. For his
goodness has drawn me forth from nothingness and
His mercy has created me.
“O my God, I offer Thee the being which Thou
hast given me with all my heart. I dedicate and conse-
crate it to Thee.” Amen.
