Duke St. 34-3c Back Fence by Max Smith At a recent Farm-City Week meeting the past editor of the Farm Journal magazine, Carroll Streeter, gave one of the most informative presentations on today’s agricultural conditions that I've heard in recent years. This world-wide journalist held the attention of his audience far beyond his scheduled time and they wanted more. He told us of the food production capacity of this country and of the many advances farmers have made in the past several decades. Also, the period of surpluses is over and now there is great demand for nearly all food, fiber, and feed products. The aim is ‘‘all-out’” production in almost every commodity. He summarized his talk by saying that he had no doubt that the American farmer could meet the increased demand, providing the rest of us would let him do it. To impose unreasonable pesticide and environmental restrictions on the farmer could result in higher costs and food shortages, Give the farmer a chance to produce the most important item in the world today -- FOOD. The holiday season is ap- proaching and Christmas trees will soon be on the market. I hear remarks that the cutting of evergreen trees for Christmas is not a good ecology move because trees should be allowed to grow. There is nothing to surpass the beauty and natural odor of a real Christmas tree in the home or office during the holiday season; each year about 35 million trees are cut in this country for this special time; this is in comparison with the 85 billion trees that are planted each spring; most tree farmers try to plant two trees for every tree cut the: previous year. Therefore, don’t feel badly because the trees are cut; they are grown for this purpose and should be enjoyed by all. Strawberry growers should be prepared to mulch their berries as soon as the ground begins to freeze; this usually happens early in December: A 3to 4 inch layer of straw or This is a good time to start training that bird dog.

Leaders for Troop No. 32 are Mrs. Nancy Kopf and Miss Ella Gainer. hay over the berries will protect them from wintry winds and keep the ground from freezing and thawing; this alternate warm and cold ground will cause heaving of the plants to the point where their roots will be exposed next spring. If chopped cornstalks, ground corncobs, or sawdust is used, only a 2- inch layer should be applied. Leaves should not be used because they pack too tightly. Now is the time to give some attention to the strawberry plants for a bigger crop next June. 11 EAST MAIN Scratch Pads at The Mount Joy Bulletin Your Choice 10° COUNTY WIDE - BUSINESS DIRECTORY NEEDHELP?
