Overnight parking on the subdivision roads is prohibited. 3. The land between your lot line and the road should be kept clean from weeds, sapplings, and rubbish. 4. The five foot easement in the rear of each lot should also be maintained by the owner to keep it clear from overgrowth and rubbish. 5. All pets should be kept from running loose. 6. The dumping of trash or rubbish on empty lots is prohibited. 7. All property owners should pay their dues by March 31. 8. Paid members are allowed to use the picnic tables at the beach.

Many area farmers requested the service when they signed up in the 1973 farm programs for feed grain and wheat, said County ASC Committee Chairman Joe Getty, but those who didn't still have time to get measurement and inspection service before they certify to their acreages. "The measurement service by trained ASCS personnel, which includes staking and referencing, is useful to producers who want to be sure of their% crop, set-aside, or conserving base acreages. "Set-aside inspection service is an advance checkout to determine if the designated acreage meets quality requirements for set-aside land," Getty said. Both services carry a guarantee that if the producer stays within the measured and staked area and keeps to his designated set-aside, nc penalties will be imposed on him if it is later found there was a mistake in the measurement of inspection service. "That can be quite a savings, right there," Getty said, "because a mistake in cer­ tifying acreage can mean the loss of some or all of a farm program payment. Measurement and set-aside inspection service can be ob­ tained for any farm program purpose by phone, writing, or dropping by the ASCS county office, 1143 North Seminary avenue, (Route 47 North) Woodstock.

THINGS YOU MAY NOT KNOW ABOUT CONSERVING ELECTRICITY Do-it-yourself hints to cool food for less cost. Refrigerators and freezers operate night and day. If they're not in proper working order, you can be wasting energy around the clock. These tips can help maintain them in top operating condition. Door gasket test. To check the tightness of the door seal, place a piece of paper between the gasket and the cabinet. Close the door with normal force and try to pull the paper straight out. There should be a slight drag. Repeat the test at various places around the door, including the hinge side. If there are places where no drag occurs, have a service man check the gasket and the door for proper alignment. Condensate drain. If you have a no-frost or self-defrosting refrigerator, examine the condensate drain. Make sure it's clean. A prolonged blockage will cause frost to build up on the coils and impair efficiency Condenser coils. If your condenser coils are exposed on the back of the unit, clean them regularly. Use a bristle brush or vacuum cleaner. Newer refrigerators have the condenser coils covered by a panel. Remove it for cleaning. Some models have coils beneath the unit. To clean, remove the front grill and vacuum. These and other refrigeration hints are among the 101 ways to conserve electricity at home in our free booklet.
