Pa. Young Farmers Week
Governor Milton Shapp has
declared November 7 to 13 as
Pennsylvania Young Farmers
Week.
The Proclamation noted that
the Association is organized
through the vocational
agriculture program in public
schools to provide continued
educational opportunities for
young farm families.
“Young Farmer programs in
local communities provide
technical information, develop
civic responsibilities, and
promote rural-urban un
derstanding.
“The Pennsylvania Young
Farmers Association enables
young farm families throughout
the state to associate together in
frequent planned meetings,
whereby they gain new ideas,
create new friendships, and

the federal government to control
inflation. He indicated that if

policies will work and act ac

He also noted that with the
present policies, “this country
