month. First there would be a service
fee for each access line of 50 cents.
Then there would be a long distance
fee amounting to two tenths of one
percent. The fees would be listed on
your telephone bill, after which the
money collected for the service
would be turned over to CAPCO to
pay bills and other installation costs.
When asked how much CAPCO

destination. The group boarded the
bus and headed out to the Smith
ranch near Valley Spring. The first
soil pit examined was the Castell
soil. This soil is a clayey soil formed
from gneiss bedrock. About two
hours were spent on discussing and
photographing the soil.
The second stop was on the
Desmond Sagebiel ranch south of
Llano. Mr. Sagebiel had the pleasure
of welcoming the group and did so in
German. He impressed many mem-
bers of the group in his abilities to
speak German. The soil examined on
the Sagebiel Ranch was the voca soil.
It is a deep, clayey soil formed from
granite bedrock. The group spent a
good deal of time examining,
photographing and discussing the
soil.
