Need a farm loan?
Bob Badger
is the friend to see!
There are no two ways about it; everybody feels more
comfortable borrowing from a friend. That's why so many
area farmers take their needs to Bob Badger head of the
Agricultural Loan Division at Bank of Lancaster County.
Bob is a true friend to farmers. An area native, he grew up
among them and still lives among them today, in southern
Lancaster County. He's vitally interested in helping them solve
their complex money problems. He's always ready to provide
experienced, financial counsel. And he's more than happy to
use Bank of Lancaster County's flexible payment schedules
to tailor each loan to the farmer's specific requirements.
So whatever your needs may be operating capital,
‘livestock, machinery, construction, farm mortgages or estate
planning make it a point to talk with Bob Badger. Because
when it comes to a farm loan, he's the best friend you could
ask for!
The good old bank of good old Lancaster County.

Law enforcement officers,
speaking to a meeting called
recently by neighbors who are
plain sick and tired ot the van
dalism, theft, trespassing and
other disregard for their property
and rights, told disgusted property
owners that there’s little they can
really do to keep people out ot what
doesn’t belong to them.
You can lock up. You can put up
extra night lights. You can pay ex
tra attention to what’s happening
in the neighborhood, know who
lives there, and write down
descriptions of suspicious-lookmg
characters and cars.
But do not, ever, ever, ever, take
up a gun to defend your property,
you might get away with that if
your life, or your neighbor’s, is in
jeopardy - but you’d better be dog
gone well able to prove even that
threat.
One farm neighbor had already
heard that. After repeated run-ins

Next thing, he was faced with
criminal charges, law enforce
ment offices came and took his
gun, and he was ordered to appear
at a hearing.
Hearing night, the neighbors
hereabouts packed our little
township room, only to hear his ac
cuser refuse to admit were he’d
been that night.
Case dismissed.
Within about two weeks of that
incident, the arrested farmer’s
neighbors, a young farm couple,
were robbed. Twice.
The next place down the road
was cleaned out of a variety ot
tools.
And, at the next place down the
road, a car license and description
were taken, plus two men were
seen as they dashed from the
house, and took off in the waiting
car, leaving strewn behind most ot
the goods they’d been gathering,
plus a pair of flip-flops one lost in
his getaway hustle.
After calling tor police, my dear
friend who’d been robbed waited
an hour and halt for response, to
later discover that officers had
been located a bare half-mile up
the road and never received her
message for help.
