County Exec Speaks By H. Lee Dennison Suffolk County Executive The purpose of this column was to try to keep the public informed about County affairs. All too of- ten , however , the column has not been able to anticipate or keep up with rumors that sometimes spread hk« wildfire from misin- formed , umntormed , or fabricated sources. It was widely publicized , foi example , that the acquisition of open lands with State aid for con- servation and prevention of unde- sireable development meant the creation of state-used parks en- closed by high fences with the elimination of 200 homes; that the airports m Bab ylon Town under County control w ould disrupt the whole Town and eliminate hun- dreds more homes; that the duck industry was going to be des- troyed ; that the County Execu- tive , with his survey of local gov- ernment , intended to eliminate lo- cal government for peisona l cen- tralized control; that we are dreamers , and spendthiifts , and are recklessl y plunging the Coun- ty into sudden debt for headlines and patronage. These things are untrue , of course , but as iV , e rumors spread they snowball , and many un- thinking peop le begin , or some- times want to believe. All that is asked of the people of this County is to be sure they have the truthful facts about things before they begin to be- lieve , or hel p to spread unfounded rumors. The door of the offices of County Planning, County Depait- ment of Public Works and the County Executive are open to all. The details and plans for every County project are available for all to see.

MEDFORD FIRE DEPT By George Horst We attended tbe Lakeland Fire Department parade last Thursday night and due to a purely biologi- cal reason , we could not be judged. In the opinion of many, we missed out on a prize for \Best appear- ing Fire Department. \ We held one of our monthly drills last Monday night. Our Drum and Bugle Corps is going to sponsor an \Old Fashion Picnic. \ This type of event has not been held in this localit y in many moons. It will provide fun and nostalgic relaxation for many and all who come. The tentative date is August 13 from 1 p. m. to 7 p. m. More information will be available very shortly. Although the burn index ran 7 and above most of last week , we had only one fire for the week. Had the person or persons been more careful about lit matches and lit cigarettes , especially around the Middle Island Road , Granny Road Area , we wouldn 't have had that fire to report. Now that it is really hot , no one thinks about their next win- ter ' s heating and now is the time to think about getting furnaces and oil burners cleaned up a n d put in good , safe condition. By having a clean , well-functioning heating unit is one way of reduc- ing the ever-present hazard of fire . Strawberry Assn Says Last Season Was Successful Average returns of 33.6 cents per quart and 17.1 cents per pint to growers who sold their strawber- ries at the Long Island Cauliflow- er Association ' s Riverhead auction were reported last week by the farmer-owned organization. The final tall y of auction statis- tics also shows that total volume for the 21 sale days between June 8 and Jul y 2 amounted to 1 , 013 , 958 quarts. The number of 16-quart crates sold was 48 , 465 while 39 , - 753 12-pint flats passed under the auctioneer ' s hammer. By way of comparison , 1 , 034 ,944 quarts change d hands at the auc- tion in 1960 , when the entire pro- duction was marketed in 16-quart wirebound crates. The average re- turn last year was $5.84 per crate or 36.5 cents per quart . This season , the association pointe d out , the average return for two pints was one-half cent higher than that for one quart. LTCA officials said , however , that the net return to growers on pints was lower than on quarts because of the additional container , har- vesting and packing costs involved. Desp ite the late start and the abbreviated shipping period , pro- duction \vas prett y much on a par with last year , and this is attribut- ed to a somewhat larger acreage rather than an increased yield. Auction volume was tbe third larg- est in the eleven years the \berry block\ has been operating, ex- ceeded onl y in 1950 and 1957. It is estimated that approximate- ly 60 per cent of the fruit harvest- ed this year was sold at auction , while the remainder was moved through direct sale channels and marketed through local green gro- ceries and roadside stands. An innovation was the serve- yourself system that was institut- ed in many berry patches. Thou- sands of local people and transi- ents accepted the \ you pick ' em \ invitation extended by growers and had fun filling their baskets and saved some money besides .
