—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, July 12, 1975 40 Will Represent | Continued from Page 38] meeting and asked me to fill them out and enter.” Sandy hesitated, but was soon talked into it by other members who figured she’d make a good contestant. They knew what they were doing, but Sandy said she still was not too ken on going through with the contest. When she won, she said, “I was very surprised because I had someone else picked to win.” Her mother said she and her father were both happy and surprised when Sandy won, and she added, “I think she can learn something from this and do a lot of good.” Sandy said she feels a Dairy Princess can be important, “if you give speeches and try to promote dairy products. I’ve been asked to hand out some ribbons at fairs which I will enjoy, but it shouldn’t be just handing out ribbons. There are many more important things which can be done.” Sandy said she is putting together a slide presentation in case she should get to talk with grade schoolers, something she said would be fun and worthwhile. “I’d tell them to tell their mothers to buy milk. I’d also tell about all the other dairy products - not just milk alone. I would especially tell about what all is involved in feeding animals. I think people are surprised at all the grain and water it takes to get cows to produce.” She said it is surprising to her that her colleagues in for herself, she says. Reduced demand seen for soybeans Reduced demand for soybean oil and meal, the prospect of one of the largest September carryovers ever, and the possibility of a large 1975 soybean harvest highlight a report issued recently by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) according to Paul H. Keeney Chairman of the Berks County Agricultural Stabilization and Con servation Committee. According to the “Fats and Oils Situation” issued by USDA’s Economic Research Service, disappearance of soybeans is expected to drop to about 1.18 billion bushels, the lowest since 1968-69. This low disappearance will likely bring about a September carryover of around 225 million bushels, the third largest ever. The situation report holds a slim hope for a market turn-around if the 1975 soybean crop is late or sharply reduced and if worldwide demand in creases. Both these con ditions seem unlikely at this time. Soybean plantings this spring were completed well ahead of the average and if growing conditions continue favorable during the sum mer, prospects for yields higher than year-earlier levels would be good. This would provide a margm of protection against early frosts, a situation which severely damaged last year’s late-planted crop. On the export scene, soybean shipments are running well behind last year’s record levels. For the entire season, exports are expected to total about 400 million bushels, down about 26 percent from last season to the lowest level in six years. Exports of soybean oil may be down 27 percent to 1.1 billion pounds while soybean meal exports are estimated at about 4.6 million tons, off ap proximately 16 percent from last year. Prices for soybean oil (Crude, Decatur) and soybean meal (44 percent protein, Decatur) have declined about 50 percent and 28 percent, respectively, from their highs last Oc tober. U.S. soybeans will face stiff competition from the Brazilian crop (up 30 percent from 1974) as well as from Peruvian fishmeal, African peanuts, Philippine copra and Malaysian palm oil, Mr. Keeney said. Other coun tries’ gains may be partially explained by the short 1972 U.S. crop and the export embargo in the summer of 1973 which caused many countries who depended upon the United States to begin seeking alternative sources of supply. The report indicates that Brazilian soybeans may expand even further into the world market in the Future. U.S. school have no concept of the hard work involved on a dairy farm, often suggesting that the cows can wait to be milked or that milking could be skipped altogether if there is something more interesting to do. She said, “They just don’t understand.” Again this year there will be a seminar for all dairy princesses, and Sandy said, “I think it will really help in preparing speeches. Others have told me how much in formation they give you there. I’m sure it will be in teresting.” As for the state contest, Sandy said, “I haven’t heard much about it, but I hope it will be a lot of fun. ” Does it help to have a former dairy princess and a first runner-up in the state contest as a neighbor and friend’ Sandy said Tina offered only one little piece of advice: “Be yourself.” But she also offered assistance to Sandy as she prepares for the state contest and readies herself for her year as Dairy Princess. When talking about hobbies, Sandy reluctantly men tions something" about rock sculptures. She says she’s hesitant to talk about it because it is so difficult to describe, so she produces pictures and an article which was written about her work, and it immediately becomes clear. What she does is pile up rocks which wash down the creek on their property, and she began by displaying them on the small abridge over the stream. She said she piled up the rocks just for the fun of it when she was walking by the creek, something she enjoys doing often. But she said sfye was quite surprised and un prepared when people started commenting on her work and calling it sculpture. But others were indeed impressed with what they saw, and she had no less than four newspaper articles written about it. She talks about her artistic talent reluctantly, but the Evans’ home is full of other pieces which Sandy has done. These she molds by hand from sewer pipe clay - red clay. She said she visits a place where sewer pipe is made, scoops up the clay residue and then mixes it with water.

She has an art teacher - neighbor who has become her mentor and she uses his kiln for firing her works. She has made quite a few animals, but also enjoys molding ab g tracts. She said she is uncertain about her future, and when asked if it might include art, she said there is an art colony nearby, and she realizes how very difficult it is to make a living by that means alone. She said she thought at one time she might enjoy working with animals, but for now her plans are to take a year to work following graduation and then decide what the future holds. For her immediate future, she will be busy planning ways to promote dairy products for her county’s dairy industry and preparing to represent Chester County in the state contest.
