sion
The 1956 Farm Show starts a
new year for Pennsylvania agri
culture and provides a display
of agricultural products, equip
ment and supplies never before
equaled in quantity or quality,
according to Dr William L.
Henning, State Secretary of Agri
culture who is steering the first
show under this administration as
chairman of the Farm Show Com
mission ' ,
“Farming for Freedom”
Dedicated to the theme “Farm
ing foi Freedom,” the exposition
is designed to inspire and in
struct rural people “to the ex
tent that they might be able to
meet more adequately those prob
lems that are bound to- arise
during the year ahead,” he de
clared ~
“This Farm Show will be a
revelation to farmers, consum
er, processors and distributors
of Pennsylvania quality farm pro
ducts,” Secretary Henning added.
“We regret that it was neces
sary to turn away more than 100
applicants for commercial exhi
bit space and to refuse entry to
130 head of swine and 330 chic
kens because no room could be
found for them jn the building.
All departments of the show will
be filled to capacity- We are
hopeful that additional facilities
can be made for future shows.
36 Organizations Meet
‘'But this show is needed by
farmers They will come many
miles and from many states to
see it, especially the newest la
bor saving machines and equip
ment that will be on display. The
show will have a more import
ant impact than ever before as
farmers seek to reduce costs of
production in a lengthening
period of declimng income. Edu
cational meetings scheduled by
36 statewide farm organizations
will covecjiractical topics on cur
rent farm problems.”
Dedication .of the show to
“Farming for Freedom” will be
by GovernO" George' M. Leader
during “Governor’s Night” in the
large arena on the evening of
the opening day. This will be
followed by the annual display
of skills in horsemanship by
mounted members of the Penn
sylvania State Police.

Erie County’s
Health Bureau
Approved by State
HARRISBURG A County
Department of Health for Erie
County, approved by voters there
in a popular referendum last
month by better than four-to-one,
is expected to be in operation
early in 1956.
Dr Beiwyn F -Mattison, State
Secretary of Health, expressed
confidence that as a result of the
vote “the people of Erie County
will have better health services
than heretofore, and thus event
ually will have better health,”
and thaf other counties will fol
low suit
As a result of this latest fav
orable vote, more than 4,379,000
Pennsylvanians will be served di
rectly by their own county health
departments, or other local health
units. This is approximately 40%
of the population of the State.
Other counties served by local de
partments of health are: Phllav
delphia, Bucks, and Butler, while-
Pitlsburgh has its own City
Health Department.
“County health departments in
timately responsible to the local
needs of the. county, and directed
by competent and trained public
health persons, have been shown
time and time again to be the
best method of administering
public health programs,” Dr.'
Mattison declared-
