Jy 19.21.2J.26.28.30 Farmers Return Favorable Petition For A Permanent County District NEWS OF SPRING GROVE Spring Grove, July 25. Jackson township is the first of seven townships within the vicinity of Spring Grove to have returned Its petition pertaining to the move to procure a permanen soil conservation district here in York counyt The petition. which will be filed with the state Soil Conservation board on or before Tuesday, August 2, will be held at the Spring Grove National bank, this place, until it is submitted to the board for consideration. More than the sufficient number of signatures appear on the petition, the large number of which will assure the Jackson township farmers of action on the part of the state board pro viding the other townships duplicate a similar form. The petition that has been turned over to the local bank authorities to hold contains the names of practically all the large farm owners in Jackson township.

The average ac reage of land possed by these fanners, whose names appear on the petition, is slightly over 100 acres. Co- operators of the soil conservation service, who circulated this petition, are more than pleased with the results. It might be well to inform any township farmer, who has failed to place his signature among the long list of petitioners, to go to the Spring Grove National bank during banking hours and sign up, that is, if he would like to be included in this ad vantageous service. Employes of the bank will be at service for any one desiring to do so. Besides, the co-operators who were responsible for circulating the petition, would like to include as many Jackson township farmers and landowners as possible, because the greater the number of signatures, the more prestige the petition will have with the state boardl More than likely several of the pe titions tha are being circulated In the adjoining townships will be re turned within the next few days.

From what could be learned, the petitioners are meeting with great suc cess in their respective areas. Per haps, much of this can be attributed to the fact that many of these farm ers reside in the section that received severe damage several weeks ago by the torrential downpour of rain, where examples of this valua- able service were extremely pronounced. Farms where the soil conservation service was employed withstood the heavy downpour excellently while adjoining lands where the service was not employed were badly washed. One case was perhaps the most outstanding where more than one hundred tons of top soil had to be removed from the road. An adjoining farm where the soil conservation service was employed could be viewed from the same road entirely free from top soil.

Farmers in the vicinity have probably realized that to adopt the service means a large saving to themselves as well as the taxpayers. Sportsmen's Club To Meet The Spring Grove Sportsmen's club will meet on Friday night in the S. D. Wise storeroom, West Constitution avenue. President Herman H.
