Now that it's all over, I have a few thoughts to
impart concerning Farm Show. My first question
is, why hasn't someone invented Farm Show
collision insurance for the human body? Of course,
it would have to be “no fault” since you could
never begin to catch the millions of culprits who
ram you black and blue every second you
perilously navigate through the lemming-like
crowd during that infamous week in Harrisburg.
And, too, there ought to be spill insurance,
ketchup insurance, and chocolate ice cream in
surance so that you would feel compensated every
time a total stranger uses you as a Handy Wipe for
all his excess, overflowing cups and cones.
And, too, I definitely feel that there should be a
major health insurance plan which all the
susceptible “sickles" like myself could cash in on
for that flu-mfected drafty, dusty week.

Loeb, treasurer.
The next meeting of the

home of Mrs. Lydia Cleaver.
And welcome to them
And, one more thing. During lunch hour I
strongly affirm that Farm Show officials should
take a lesson from all regulatory bodies and use
the social security number system to determine at
which time each individual could buy his or her
food. Or, even simpler than that, why not go by the
alphabet? Anyone with a last name beginning w'th
“A” through “C" could buy French fries at 10:30
a.m.; “D” through “G” at 10:45, and so on all the
way down through the alphabet. Order. What it
takes is a little order. (I decided that as I shoved
and butted my way through the crowd for a milk
shake the other day.)
Yes, well, it’s over fo r another year, but the
question remains What am I going to do for
frustration next week?

y EXTRA NIT PROFIT PER HEN PER YEAR!
Research has confirmed that less competition at the feed trough is
one key to more eggs and more net profit. With proper management,
The Northco® 4-Deck Reverse Cage Slant Back System from A. R.
Wood will deliver extra net profit from the day it’s installed:
Society 6
Here’s Why...
• The extra equipment costs
are offset by savings in build
ing costs (in new construc
tion).
• There’s no increase in oper
ating cost, no extra feed.
• The Reverse Cage delivers
fewer cracked eggs.
