Dutch Colonial Barns in the Town of Bethlehem by Allison P. Bennett, Bethlehem Town Historian
HERE isthe principal type of barn which was constructed on o;r>np,p, Dutch farms of our Town in the 18th and early in the 19th
irp'ni,,'iip< These barns were patterned after the huge barns found in at the time settlers were coming to the New World.
was a barn of very ample proportions - great width and a huge area for storage of hay. Three or four bays for cattle were provided
each side, with a raised threshing floor in the center. The doors were the front and rear alike, enabling the farmer to drive his team and
through the barn. Most of these barns had small "people" doors extreme right or left side as in the Zdgiebloski barn. The interior
construction was massive and solid - many beams measured as as 28 inches wide. This is a good indication of the size of the trees grew on th is land in the early years of settlement and the width
beams helps to ascertain the age of a barn. The overshot en-' barn was a later 19th century type and the kind we usually find
i abundance today. There are six documented Colonial Dutch barns, some quite alterstill standing in the Town of Bethlehem today. Two others, not
here, are on the property of Harrison Malary at Jericho Road in and Joseph Dabraval~kas on Route 32 in Feura Bush. If you
Id, after reading th is article, decide to look up some of these barns, remember that they are on private property and you must secure
iss ion of the owner to visit them. A most comprehensive study Colonial barn has been compiled by Dr. John Fitchen of
IColgalleUniversity in his book, "The New World Dutch Barn," publishin 1969 and available through local book stores or your library.
rHE IRVING LEONARD BARN located on Van Dyke Road off Rt. 43 in )elmar. It was probably built between 1800 and 1815.
THE OTT BARN, owned by Ott, located on Rt. 9-W, opposite the Bethlehem Reformed Church. It was built in the earlv 1800s.

A NEAR MISHAP again substantiates that knowledge of Red Cross Life Saving saves lives.
At Brown's Beach, Saratoga Lake on July 29, at 6:30 P.M., a 14 year old boy, Daniel Borras, 629-0 S. Pearl St., Albany, encountered an emergency situation.
According to witnesses, a young girl parked her motor boat along the shore and began swimming out to a swim float shortly after the beach's life guard had gone off duty. About halfway there, she became fatigued and began fighting to stay afloat. Daniel Borras, who had recently graduated from Red Cross Jr. Life Saving Course, knew the exact rescue procedure and safely pulled her to the shore.
Afterward, Dan said that if he hadn't taken lifesaving, he couldn't have known what to do at all:
Young Borras passed his Red Cross Jr. Life Saving Course at Lincoln Park Pool just this summer under the instruction of Mr. Raymond Leigh.

Clyde Cole, well-known as an expert and former championship wrestler and coach himself was assisted by his son Tom, also well-known in wrestling circles from Pittsford, N.Y. Mr. Cole has received an enthusiastic r.esponse from the 18 boys participating in the clinic.
Besides conditioning and mat instruction in wrestling skills, movies were shown of the 1971 Intersectional Tournament (State Championships) at the Syracuse War Memorial Stadium as well as instructional movies.
THERE'S NO PLACE like home to weary travelersexcept when they're greeted by a welcoming party of hungry fleas.
IIReturning vacationers are often amazed to find a sudden outbreak of fleas in their homes," noted Professor Edgar M. Raffensperger of the N. Y. State College of Agriculture and Life Sciences,
: THE SPOTLIGHT
Cornell, Heven when there hasn't been a resident pet in the home for weeks even months,"
Raffensperger explained that a family pet almost always brings the first flea into the home where the adult female lays eggs on the pet's bed or resting place. Within a few days the eggs hatch into larvae.
During the family's vacation the larvae, feeding on food scraps and dandruff, grow into adults. When the vacationers return, the hungry young fleas will jump about, from the pet's bed to rugs and upholstery, furiously seeking their first blood meal.
II Adult fleas can live several weeks without food," Raffensperger said, 'This is why dog or cat owners sometimes rebHn from vacations to find their homes overrun with fleas even though no adult fleas were present when they left ,"
He also explained that the fleas are long and thin, especially suited to travel through the hairs of their victims and are slightly larger than the period at the end of this senfence.
Raffensperger advised that the best way to avoid flea infestations is by fitting a flea eoUar containing dichlorovos (trade name, Vapona) on the family pet before leaving for vacation.
He also noted that pest control can be accomplished by using a powderlike pesticide containing Hcarbaryl/J. (trade name, Sevin). This can be dusted on the pet's bed or his traditional resting spot and,
if the infection is severe, on rugs.
PHowever, it should not be used in places where a baby or curious child may crawl,"
,the entomologist cautioned.
RIGHT NOW, during the hottest weather of the summer, is the most critical ti~e of the year for your lawn. Weeds seemingly run out of control. and the lack of rain combined with the heat causes grass to wither or go dormant. A.dditionally, insects and disease cause extensive damage.
VVith modern fertilizers, chemicals and lawn care equipment, however, these problems can be largerly avoided and a strong, healthy, good-looking lawn maintained with the expenditure of just a few minuted effort each week.
Lawn care experts at Melnor Industries, manufacturer of both underground and above ground, sprinklers and garden care aids, point out that a light feeding of a balanced fertilizer early in the summer is desirable to help the lawn withstand the stains of summer sun and drought.
If you failed to take preventative measures against weeds and crabgrass in the spring, you may find them growing vigorously and sprouting all over the lawn from now through late summer. However, they are fairly easy to eliminate with selective chemicals. It is important to dispose of them before they go to seed and develop into even more difficult and widespread problems next year.
Proper watering is very important in the summer,

the Meinor experts explain, for it takes a relatively short period of hot. dry weather to take its toll of improperly watered grass. Some grasses go dormat in the summer and require additional watering to remain green.
The objective of watering is to soak the soil down to the root zone- at least six inchesbut only as frequently as necessary. Frequent light sprinklings encourage weeds and. shallow root growth.
Your soil type determines how much water should be applied. Sandy soils absorb water more quickly and retain .Iess than do day or loamy soils. A rule of thumb is to apply 1/2 inch of water on sandy soils and from 1 to 1-1/2 inches on clay or loamy soils.
The condition of your grass will tell you when to water. If it has a bluish cast. shows footprints and doesn't spring back when you walk on it. get yout Melnor sprinkler. If possible. apply water early in the day. Grass that stays wet through the night is more susceptible to disease.
Frequent mowings are preferable during the summer. Mowing infrequently and taking off too much of the grass blades at one time is a shock to the grass, and invites di-' sease. Also, mowing so clippings are short often eliminates the need for sweeping or picking them up.
A dry I brown lawn isn't necessarily a dead lawn. Well fertilized, permanent grass will recover when watered sufficiently. Use a good. properly operating lawn sprinkler. It not only will do a better job, but makes it easier and uses water more economically.
For insect control, there are almost as many types of chemical products as there are bugs. Many give effective general purpose control. depending on "the concentration of in:. secticide, efficiency of use and frequency of application. All insecticides currently sold are poisonous to varying
,I degre~, so instructions for
handling and use should be followed carefully.

General chairman is Ted Bernstein. Additional information, reservations and tickets are available by calling him at 765-4253. SUE VANDERLINDE, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. Raymond
. Vanderlinde, 73 McGuffey Lane, recently returned from a two month tour of Europe. The International Student Exchange tour of thirteen countries is sponsored jointly by the University of Illinois and the University of Vienna. In September Sue will enter her Junior year at the College of William and Mary in Willi-a'-msburg, Virginia, where she is a psychology major.
SARATOGA RACING FANS at this meeting, which continues through August 28, have a ringside seat at the march of jockey Lafitt Pincay, Jr. toward a new national record for purse won by a rider in a single-year.
Going into the Saratoga session, the romanticallynamed strong boy from Panama had already won some $2,400,000 this year as against the full-season mark of $3, 088,888 set by Braulio Baeza, also of Panama, in 1967.
"With five months still to go," says Saratoga's Vince DeGregory, Jr., Pincay's agent since early in 1970, IILafitt has a good shot at setting a new record."
Pincay had 246 winners as t~e Spa meeting opened, and there loomed the posibility that he might also lead the nation's riders in races won before year's end, thereby compiling a rare parlay. The top money-winner is seldom the winner of the most races. Last year when Pincay led the money-winners with $2,-626, 526, his 269 wiimers entitled him to only fifth place in the races-won category.
The stakes-rich' Saratoga racing calendar also give~ Pincay a chance of getting clQser to the all-time mark of 43 stakes won' .in a single: ye,ar set by Bill Hartack in 1957, When Lafitt Jr, won the American Derby aboard Bold Reason in ,c:hic'ago' two' 'days
before the Saratoga meeting got under way, it was his 24th stakes victory of the year and his forth in 1970 in the $100, OOO-added class.
The 24-year-old Pincay's emergence as the most talkedabout race-rider of the year from coast to coas~ hasn't really suprised the cognoscenti. rfHe keeps a horse out of trouble," is their succinct wrap-up of his skilL They had tabbed him as a future star almost as soon as Fred W. Hooper, the Thoroughbred owner and jockey talent scout, brought him to the States in 1966, Hooper also brought out Baeza and Jorge Velasquez.
But this year, Pincay, who can ride at 113 pounds yet has the bulging biceps and shoulders of a welterweight fighter and big hands - and feet - for an athlete his size has lived up to all the adulatory descriptions of. him as a super-rider in suddenly spectacular fashion.

Competitive swimming has its rewards expressed in team and individual trophies, medals, and ribbons. However, to achieve these rewards, there are many many hours spent by these swimmers Jlhich are only rewarded by burning eyes, aching muscles, and general mental and physical exhaustion. This type of personal motivation can only be caused by a group of dedicated youngsters striving to make themselves and their team the best.
The Dolfins were started approximately 10 years ago by Ray Sliter, varsity swim coach of the undefeated Bethlehem Central High School. Three years ago the Club became a sanctioned Swim club

develop a scorched appearance indicating a lack of sufficient moisture. Premature autumn coloration may occur as early as August. As the decline advances, limbs of increasing size begin· dying, noticeably in the upper crown region. Branches will often fail to leaf out in spring. Foliage may grow in tufts at twig ends, and abnormally large seed crops may occur.
The causes of maple decline are many and varied, say County Extension Agents. Trees growing along roadsides and dooryards will almost always show water stress. Salt from winter road clearing, soil compaction, and restriction of roots by piplines and sidewalks all contribute to the trees' poor health. Sensitivity to air pollutants is also a factor.
Although there is no IIsure_ cure" for maple decline, several steps can be taken to

IS YOUR CAR ONLY 1/2 SAFE?
You know where your car is, right?
Wrong. By the time you read this
far, according to Mr. Williams, Manager of Pinkerton's, Inc. Albany office, another car has been stolen somewhere in the United States; it could have been yours.
According to research by the world's largest and oldest security organization, an automobile is stolen every 60 seconds of every day.
Last year, 871,000 cars disappeared - and this includes from parking lots, private homes, business establishments and garages.
Mr. Williams reports that Pinkerton's Research Department finds that auto theft has increased 168 per cent in the past decade. Despite the use and purchase of expensive alarms and elaborate theftpreventing devises now being installed, one out of every 108 registered automobiles was reported stolen last year.
It is true that some 85 per cent of the cars stolen are recovered, Mr. Williams says. However, he adds, many of these returned vehicles. are so
badly damaged or stripped that the owner faces a sizable repair bill. Pinkerton experience estimates the average repair cost at slightly over $200. ~
Is such theft inevitable? Not necessarily, counsel's
Mr. Williams. "We at Pinkerton's recommend preventive measures to our clients." Among the key precautions to reduce the risk of auto theft are:
LOCK CAR DOORS EVERY TIME THE CAR IS PARKED:
Professional car thieves try to be as inconspicuous and take as little time as possible when stealing a car. Although they are skilled at breaking into a locked car, the mere fact that it is locked slows down their actions and increases the chance of detection. Furthermore, a locked car will deter youngsters from taking the car on a joy ride. Because more than half of all car thefts take place in residential areas, car doors should be locked even, when the car is parked outside a· home or in a driveway.
TAKE KEYS WITH YOU: IT is estimated that about 40 per cent of stolen cars are left by owners with keys in 'the ignition. Whenever possible, take car keys with you. Although this is not permitted in some pay lots, these lots are usually better protected than the open park-andlock lots.
PARK IN WELL-LIGHTED AREAS: Certain parking lot sections are usually better lighted than others. Since thieves prefer to work in dark-

ness, parking in a brightly illuminated area will reduce the risk of car theft.
USE CAR TRUNKS: Many thieves, attracted by packages or clothing left on the back seat of a car, will decide to steal the automobile once they have broken into it. Therefore, it is wise to stow attractive items such as golf clubs, a radio, camera or luggage, in the trunk. In a station wagon, cover them with a blanket.
SINCE THE DISCOVERY of traces of Southern corn leaf blight in upstate New York two weeks ago, there has been no apparent increase in blight, 'a Cornell University plant disease expert reported today (July 20).
Prof. Carl W. Boothroyd, plant pathologist at the N.Y. State College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, Cornell, said that the outlook is optimistic.
Dry weather, he said, inhibits blight development, and hot growing conditions for" corn in late July and August should be unfavorable for blight development.
Corn blight was first reported in Ulster County on July 1 and in Wayne County on July 2. This past week blight was identified in two other fields, one in Genesee County and the other in Greene County.
Boothroyd said that the blight may be found in a few other areas later in the season, depending on weather and other growing conditions.
In areas where blight should develop, it is possible to protect affected corn plants with a fungacide application, he said.
Pointing to availability of effective fungicides now cleared for use on corn, Boothroyd said, however, that spraying will be a question of economics.
Information on the use of fungicides can be obtained" from the Extension specialists in the Department of Plant Pathology at the College, he said.
Research conducted since last fall shows that the blight fungus has been able to sur-
• vive the New York winter on old corn debris, including leaves, husks, and ears left on the field.
The corn disease hit New York in a few locations last year; hut over-all corn yields were very good in comparison with those of' many other states where the blight was severe, Boothroyd reported.
THE NEW YORK State Banking Board has approved the Application of United Bank Corporation of New York to become a registered bank holding company with respect to State Bank of Albany and Liberty National Bank and Trust Company, Buffalo. Superintendent of Banks, William T. Dentzer, who announceq this decision stated in his accompanying opinion -

ITH THE NUMBER of untries using the metric stem increasing, the United
tates would benefit from nversion to the system, cording to Prof. Mary E.
urchase of the N.Y. State ollege of Human Ecology at ornell University. Discussing the effect of oing metric" would have
n consumers as they buy d use household equipment
t the annual meeting of the merican Home Economics ssociation held recently
Denver, Prof. Purchase id that the greater freedom flow of goods to and from untries now using the metric stem would be a benefit to
II. Except for the physical
imension, conversion would ave little effect on most nsumers buying and using
ousehold equipment, Miss urchase noted. Consumers Infamiliar with meters, liters, Ind kilograms can learn to
~o.te. measurments in those
rms instead of inches, galngs, and pounds.
i The real challenge, she said, rill be to minimize the pro-
Ilem of transition. Important to a smooth'
hangeover from one system.
to another, she said, is close coordination between the building industry and the sp·pliance industry.
Prof. Purchase explained that two types of conversion are possible: soft and hard. Although soft conversion may be easier for the moment hard conversion has long term advantages.
The first, or soft conversion, would merely substitute metric measures for non-metric ones now in use. There would be no change in standard dimension, tolerances, or performance specifications.
For example, a 36-inch counter would simply become a a.914-meter counter. A 3D-inch range would be a O.833-meter range.
In hard conversion, Miss Purchase said, standardization would- be on metric-based modules. In this type of conversion actual sizes of household equipment would change. A 36-inch counter might be replaced by a D.900-meter counter, one that is about 35.5 inches high; a 3D-inch range might be a a.800-meter range.
Fitting new equipment to space designed for the old could pose a problem, she said. The problem of service and replacement parts during the changeover has pot~ntial for trouble, too, she pointed out.

VANDALISM CAUSING damage to school buildings and grounds was a major topic of discussion at the August 3rd meeting of the Bethlehem Central Board of Education. Recent incidents at the Middle School site led to the lengthy discussion,
It was reported that large groups of young people have been congregating around the building most evenings. This has often resulted in broken windows, bushels of litter (paper and broken glass) all over the grounds. wild parties. illegal entry with interior damage to the building. etc, Several fires have also been purposely set. Fortunately I extensive fire damage has not occured to date.
The police and school officials are discussing preventative measures. One .proposal under consideration at this time is a year-round curfew on school properties which would give the police added support in enforcing loitering and trespassing violations. Board action may be forthcoming soon on this proposal.
The Board of Education believes a solution must be found. for the expense of cleanup and repair is prohibitive.
