The project would require damage claims compensation to affected properties, possible county participation may be sought, and temporary repairs have kept the old bridge usable until the new structure is ready.

Pennsylvania potato grower price jump plan

Proponents of a plan to sell Pennsylvania's Yule 1836 potato crop to retailers within the state at 60 cents per hundredweight above the normal price seek cooperation from Agriculture Secretary J Hansell Wrench. The Pennsylvania Cooperative Potato Growers Association asks state inspectors to grade the crop for sale to grocers at 8,000 retailers, aiming to reserve all Pennsylvania potatoes before importing from other states. The agreement with major chain stores and independent buyers would pay the same price as Maine potatoes, giving state growers a freight advantage of about 60 cents per hundredweight.
