—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, Oct. 25, 1975 44 Artist The Kuipera have lived in New Holland for 25 years, having moved cast from Holland. Michigan. While Dona enjoys living in the New Holland area she said she misses the water in Michigan. They have three childrcd: Ken neth, 24; Kathy 23, married with two children; and Kerry, 18, a freshman at Penn State majoring in physical education. Her children, Dona said, loved the idea of the coloring book, and “we all found out a lot of things we didn’t know before." Homemaker Dona declares, “I never worked outside the home at all." In Michigan before she was married, however, she worked on fashion layouts and window displays. Her artistic talent is natural. She said, “I always loved all kinds of crafts. I do one thing for awhile and then something else." Her abilities ranged from leather tooling to oil painting. Dona feels very much a part of the poultry industry however, and three years ago began what she describes as "a small mail order business” in which she distributed egg carton craft booklets, and occasionally unprinted egg cartons themselves. This ties in closely with her husband’s work, of course, since the requests come from coupons printed on the lid of some of the plastic cartons he distributes. In three years she said she has mailed about 20,000 sets of craft booklets. Now that she has seen the successful creation of her educational coloring book, Dona feels there could be quite an endless variety of follow-up publications. She has already begun work on “The Dairy Cow and her Mar velous Milk." Many other topics have been suggested to her. Dona’s pride in her creation is obvious and well deserved. She said, “We feel it is a good, true honest story for children." It is also the first of its kind. The poultry industry stands to gain a lot of goodwill through of the coloring book - and children and their mothers stand to leam a lot about “The Incredible Edible Egg!” Twin Valley to host pumpkin The Twin Valley Future Farmers of America will host their fifth annual Pumpkin Growing Contest on Friday evening October 24, 1975 in the Twin Valley High School Cafeteria and Auditorium.

Twin Valley FFA Reporter Ida’s Notebook The first day of hunting season and the hunters will converge on the farmlands from every direction. There appears to be alot of grey squirrels in the woods but the nut supply is not plentiful. Some black walnut trees which bore bushels last year did not have one nut this year. Luckily other trees bore some and we have a reserve from last fall. Last weekend our children had a craft fair to give people ideas for Christmas gifts which could be made instead of simply bought at the last minute. I showed several kinds of nuts from the hull stage to the dried stage to the glass iar of kernels ready for cookies and cakes. Many people asked questions about drying them and whether or not shellbarks and shagbarks are hickorys. They are. I also displayed jams, jellies and relishes which Rock Cornish Game Hens 6 rock Cornish game hens, approximately 1 lb. each Salt Pepper 1 cup butter, melted Defrost rock Cornish game hens according to package directions.

But the item which received the most attention was the fresh and dried assortment of teas. I served hot and cold samples and many folk couldn’t believe that tea leaves plus water and sugar produced what they were drinking. They kept asking what “brand" tea I used. Sometimes, I get so frustrated when I can’t accomplish all that I want to do. They say we do what we really want to do but I’d say not all that we want to do. While I’m painting window frames I’m not potting flowers for winter and there is a certain urgency in Oc tober. When I’m being chauffer for someone I’m not making that apple pie I’ve had on my mind. And so one picks and chooses among the many chores and respon sibilities of a farm wife. You're REALLY UNCLAIMED FREIGHT CO.
