Farm Show To Feature
Family Competition
If histoiy has anything to do
with the futiue the 1970 Farm
Show should featuie some
fuendly ‘familv feudin' ’ loi
blue übbons and mem.ums
The annual showcase of agn
cultiue, slated foi dan 12 16
has itsualh been enlnened by
stiff competition between
biotheis, cousins and last yeai
twin sisters
The ownei or the 1909 batr
beef champion has stiong com
petition fiom hei twin sistei
while the exhibitor of the le
seive champion was a cousin ef
the 1968 winning exhibitoi To
fmther confuse the issue, the
1968 wmnei’s biothei showed
the champion Holstein cow ir
last year’s show.
Fai m Show is the big event of
the year for many familio'
acioss Pennsylvania It often
brings the names of quaint and
unknown villages to attention as
the home of champion exhibi
tois
The quality of Faun Show ex
hibits, displays of modem
equipment and just plain old
‘ atmospheie” are a stiong at
traction foi residents of othei
states, too
On one day last year, moie
than 450 bus loads of visitors
from nine other states and the
Distuct of Columbia made the
trip to Hauisbuig to attend
Faim Show
Distance didn’t seem to hind
er out-of-state guests some

Times change, people change
Winter Sport
Snowmobiling seems to be the
cuirent Wintei spoit getting con
sideiable attention Skiing has
been the major Wintei spoit in
the snow countiy until this year,
but now it must make 100 m for
tne thiilhng lecieation of snow
mobiling Howevei, this spoit is
i ot without some hazaids and
I d like to point out a few cau
tions Diess as though you had
to walk back home because you
may have to, cairy a Fust Aid
Kit and an emeigency lepan
kit be on the aleit foi baib
vine fences 01 single wne elec
tuc fences foi the> aie difficult
to see Be caieful about driving
over cieeks 01 ponds that aie Do
zen the ice may not be heavy
enough to hold yoiu weight
Don’t go into places wheie you
can t walk out deep snow might
hold the snowmobile but a per-i
son on foot will sink in too deep-|
ly to get out I
and Pennsylvania Faim Show
blends the best of the old with
the best of the new in the top
show of the year.
