2b—Lancaster Farming, Saturday. November 10, 1973 This Chick —I Kathy’s fcften playing the organ for eight years and played the piano for three years before that But she insists she still must practice. (Continued From Page 24) She had annual flowers as a project for five years and in her last year she raised vegetables. She said, “I got pretty many firsts in flowers and flower arrangements ” Another project was “health” where she learned good nutrition, physical fitness, and personal care She served the club as treasurer, secretary and social chairman. A teen leader for four years. Kathy helped visit other members. Her veal projects provided “a lot of the money to pay my way to school.” In addition to the money, she said 4-H work has been very enjoyable to her. “It gives you responsibility to leam to care for animals. Even raising flowers or vegetables teaches you a sense of responsibility. 4-H is really beneficial.” When asked if she’d marry a farmer, she said, “Sometimes I think I would, but I wouldn’t like getting up early in the morning to milk cows. I really like the farm and I think it would be great if Seasoning Sense Beef steaks should be seasoned after browning for a very im portant reason Salt, a common seasoning agent, draws meat juices to the surface which re tards the initial browning that maximizes the wonderful flavor of beef. An easy rule is to season each side of the steak after it has been browned.

But it is a hard life, 24 hours a day, seven days a week.” She feels that only if-a young man can get a boost will he be able to profitably go into farming for a career, and added, “It’s a hard life to keep up with as you get older.” It is her feeling that farms will become larger in the future, but said, “It is sad to lose the smaller farms.” As an example of an unfortunate loss of farm land she cited the new Route 422 Bypass which will be built south of Annville and “will take away some of the richest farm land around. “It makes me mad.” About being the mother of a queen, Mrs. Early said, “Her father and I are very proud of her. She’s been a very good girl.” Mrs. Early went on to explain one of the reasons her daughter is so active, relating that when Kathy was in seventh grade she broke her leg and had to stay in bed for three months. Kathy said then she was going to “go, go, go” when she got out of bed, and her Mother said she has done just that ever since. Kathy says her hobbies are playing the organ, cooking, reading and crotcheting. “I’m also starting to sew - my room mate at school is teaching me.” Since money is scarce as a student, she says, “I’m making my gifts for Christmas.” Kathy has already made an appearance in the Myerstown Halloween parade as the new Poultry Queen, and her next duty will be to present a turkey to Governor Shapp as part of the Farm-City week observance in Harrisburg. She plans to be at the Farm Show, appearing in the Poultry Federation Booth, and she said there will be other ap pearances at banquets and meetings throughout the year. Kathy said she is really looking forward to her year as Poultry Queen. “I think it will be quite an experience.” And Kathy Early, the dairy farmer’s daughter from Annville, will be quite an attractive, ar ticulate representative of the state’s poultry industry. QUESTIONS PP&L CUSTOMERS ARE ASKINC Why doesn’t PP&L put all power lines underground? Answer With today’s emphasis on the environment, it’s only natural that people wonder why more electric lines are not installed underground. For power lines of higher voltages there is simply no way. Even where technology has answers, in most situations the costs soar out of sight —along with the disappearance of the lines. To place all existing PP&L lines underground even if it were possible is estimated to cost approximately $5 billion. That’s more than three times the total dollars PP&L now has invested in all its power plants, lines, substations, trucks, equipment and offices after over 50 years in business. OK —so how about putting all new lines underground, you might ask. Again, cost is the culprit. For years, PP&L has been installing lines underground wherever congestion of overhead facilities, such as in downtown streets, would result in operating difficulties. Underground service is also installed for residential use when the builder or homeowner assumes, as the ultimate beneficiary of the service, the added cost. Please be assured that if PP&L could put lines underground without having to raise the price charged for electricity drastically, we would do so. We are working hard at finding the balance between higher costs and aesthetic values and we will continue to do so. jQffM l CATERING SERVICE •* * t WE CATER ANYWHERE.
