described as a traveler. His
experiences have allowed him to
live and work in various parts of
Pennsylvania, he lived for six
months in Oklahoma, and spent
several years in Germany. And of
one thing you can be sure - he was
observing agriculture wherever
he went.

Lancaster Farming, Saturday, October 13,1973
Lancaster County and Potter
County. There is a shorter
growing season in Potter County
with need for shorter day corn,
and the soil classes are lower. He
says there is less land investment
so the farms are larger, and there
is less investment in land and
machinery. He notes, however,
that while the acreages are
larger in proportion to Lancaster
County farms, it takes more
acreage to get comparable
yields.
A Penn State graduate in 1970,
Green did his student teaching in
Cony, Erie County. Following
graduation he served a three
year hitch in the service, six
months in Oklahoma and the
remainder of the time in Ger
many.
Married to a Penn Stater, his
wife Sherry was from Du Bois,
Clearfield County. They are the
proud parents of 18 month old
twin daughters, Rebecca and
Darlene. In addition to the twins,
he lists his hobbies as his work,
photography, and doing church
work.
