Helen Wivell noted that
she was amazed at how well
the animals in the dairy mall
adjusted to the commotion of
Park City. There was a
different cow and calf pair
every day, and each pair
remained relatively calm
during their one-day stint.
In the poultry mall there
was another big attraction -
an incubator. Every day new
eggs were placed in the
incubator so that a new
brood of chickens was:
hatched daily. The poultry
mall, set up by the Lancaster
County Poultry Association,
also recruited the “Old
Sheriff,” Bobby Mon
tgomery, from WGCB FM
from 3-6 p.m. on Monday and
Tuesday. Broaadcasting
from a 186 Hydro In
ternational Harvester from
C. B. Hoober and Son, Inc.,
Montgomery conducted a
typical show which included
interviews with passers-by.

The FFA chapters of
Lancaster County were also
represented daily at the
mall. Their display consisted
of a movie, “Food for
America,” and slide
presentation. The FFA
members who manned the
display seemed to think it
was successful since many
shoppers were attracted by
the movie and would stop to
watch.
In the large farm equip
ment mall, a lesson in
ecology was taught. At the
New Holland harvester
display, a mock cornfield
was set up with litter near
the wheels of the machine. A
sign on the harvester said,
“One bottle can ruin this
tire. Cost of replacement -
$200.” There were also sigps
on the other machinery
stating the cost of each,
among many other
enlightening facts.
