This year was no different as my children followed May Day custom. A few more years and they’ll be too old for this ceremony. Guess I will have to hope for grand children to follow this rite as the little vases of meadow and roadside flowers are so pleasing to me. XXX We had friends from the OPEN 7 3CLto 5 30 SIX DAYS A WFF< Lancaster Farming, Saturday. May 12.1973 M Ida Risser suburbs -visit in our home recently and the price of a good dairy cow became the topic of conversation. They didn’t realize how much one cost and when I said it was a sad day when one died, a lady said, “Do they do that?” Do they do that! The very next day the scavenger had to remove two of our cows. They have operations and die the same as people. It is hard for us to realize the problems with which other people have to deal. We feel our own are the important ones. XXX There are many articles written stating the high prices which farmers pay for goods and their, small margins of gain. Others compare the farmers purchasing power to the factory workers take-home pay. I’d like to tell a story that has been a favorite of mine for many years. “Long years ago a baker took bread each week in a long dirt lane to a farmer who in turn sold his butter to the tradesman. “Many months went by and one day the baker asked the farmer why he was giving him a smaller pat of butter each week.

The bracings and joint under the seat should be solid and tight. If you can remove the seats of an upholstered chair by taking out the screws, it will be easier to recover, advise Extension specialists at The Pennsylvania State University. “The farmer explained that since he had no weights he was simply balancing the butter on * the scale with the ‘one-pound loaf’ of bread which the baker had been selling him.” 27
