—Lancaster Farming, Saturday. Jan. 29. 1977 44 Junior This week we are featuring some yummy dessets, starting out with a recipe for “Chocolate Yummy” from a contributor in Belleville. We also have “oatmeal crun chies” and others including a recipe for pecan ice cream. Starting this week, Lan caster Farming will be making a change with the junior cooking edition recipes. We are now asking that a phone number be sent along with the complete address of each contributor (including his or her father’s name) and the junior cook’s age. In the recent months, nearly every recipe that has come into the Lancaster Farming office has followed the rules as far as the ad dress and age are concerned, which was a great im provement. However, we now need the phone number of each person as well, because we have had several recipes that weren’t entirely com plete, and a quick phone call could have ended that problem in no time! If you don’t have a phone, send a number where you could be reached if we really need to get in touch with you. Have a good weekend.

Age 12 Women to speak on dairy goats FLEMINGTON, N.J. - “And Introduction To Dairy Goats” will be the subject of an evening program scheduled for Thursday, February 3, 8 p.m., at Hunterdon’s Extension Center, Route 31, north of Flemmgton. To be co sponsored by the Garden State Dairy Goat Association and the Hunterdon County Extension Service, the program will include a panel presentation and discussion by six prominent dairy goat breeders. The program is designed for the beginner, principally adults interested in owning dairy goats, according to Mary Ann Hartman, Stockton, program chair man. She points out that goats are gaining in popularity in the Hunterdon- Somerset area, that they adapt well to small farm and farmette situations. She goes on to stress that they do require care. The owner must have a knowledge of the goat, feeding, breeding, housing, health. Panel topics and speakers are: “Housing and Fencing” - Mrs. Jean VanVoorhees, Glen Gardner; “Nutrition” - Mrs. Marge Green, Flemmgton; “Care of the On being wife - other hazards There are frozen fruits and vegetables, frozen breads, batters and cakes, frozen meats and TV dinners. Soups and drinks are now freeze dnsd. Even surgery employs freezing techniques. So isn’t it thrilling to be a witness to the brand new historical era in modem agriculture - frozen farming! We are not, however, greeting this innovation of Mother Nature’s with open arms. Ice is nice in a tall drink in July. It becomes less than welcome when unex pectedly discovered in the radiator of the combine. Just as upsetting was finding it slushing up the water hoses in the family car on the way Kid” - Mrs. Trudy Rausch, Bloomsbury; “Fitting and Showing” - Mrs. Nancy Cline, Stockton; “How to Choose a Dairy Gdat” - Mrs. Gail Putcher, Flemington; and a slide presentation mmmsmmmmmm&mm. a farm and By Joyce Bupp to the hardware store to purchase more kerosene for desperately needed milking parlor heat. But, Mother Nature forgot to warn us of this new era, where below zero tested antifreeze would not even be sufficient. Also smyptomatic of the trend are door jambs which freeze and swell. The ability to “kick like a mule” become a most desirable quality when both arms are full of hay and the bam door is frozen open. Just watch that your other foot is not carelessly positioned on a slippery ice patch. Keeping up with Florida, we’ve even had our own citrus freeze.

Programs and activities of the Cooperative Extension Service are offered to all regardless of race, color or national origin. holiday crates of oranges and grapefruits are rock hard in the normally frosty free ground cellar. They’cT make a great croquet game, but all orange balls would probably get confusing. One of our employees suggested that we use them for a trapshoot. The ground cellar also features quick-frozen french fries. Now if they were peeled and sliced, we’d be all set. But all eras must sometime come to an end. I can safely assure you that this one, too, will eventually pass into history, by mid- August, at the very latest. You can count on it. FARM FANS «•*•! AMI "TEMPER DRIES WINTER DISCOUNTS NOW!
