Notebook
Ida Kisser
Our children were home from
college for ten days and what a
busy time it was. The time seemed
to fly by too quickly.
1 spent a lot of time cooking and
baking for them. One day we had a
fried rabbit for dinner that my
husband shot. And for supper we
had country-style pheasant that I
shot. In fact, there is a story behind

As I was working at the kitchen
sink, I noticed several cockbirds in
my garden. So I grabbed my single
barrel shotgun and an extra shell
and hurried outside and waited for
them to come into view. Then I
shot two with one shell and was
quite pleased with myself as they
were the only ones that we got.

The one had a band on it’s leg
and a Sportsman’s Club wanted to
know “where" it was shot. I told
my son that I wrote and told them
“one pellet in it’s neck.” Of course,
I was only, kidding as I knew they
wanted to know the locality.
The children were a big help!

LANCASTER Milk is still tops
with kids says a survey published
in October, 1981.
The report states that milk is
still the most popular beverage at
mealtime for children, with 81
percent of all children drinking
milk or flavored milk drinks at
breakfast, and nearly 50 percent at
lunch and dinner.
When milk hit its peak in 1980
with a 128.4-billion-pound total
nearly 60 percent of the beverage
milk produced was consumed as
whole milk and nearly 30 percent
was skim milk

returned to their studies and 1
must think of sending Christmas
cards and letters.
When 1 look over the list each
December, I think of it as a tune of
reckoning. Names are deleted by
deaths, new ones added by
marriage and birth and there is a
constant fluctuation as family
members change. Even though
members change, through it all
Few will disagree that U.S.
agriculture is the best in the world
each farmer producing enough
food for himself and 56 other
people. And dairy fanners deserve
extra kudos because they are often
considered the most efficient part
of agriculture due to their breeding
and feeding expertise.
Back in 1955 there were more
than one million dairy farms with
about 25 million cows. The average
cow that year produced 5,842
pounds of milk.
In 1980, the number of dairy
farms ranged in estimates from

And when we decide to remove a
friend’s name from the list,
because they no longer remember
us with a card, that will be the year
that they will send one to us.
Deciding on a fina, list can take
almost as much time as addressing
the cards. 1 feel that we must try to
decide on whether or not a greeting

recipient and not think of the cost
of postage and cards.

herd numbered 10.8 million with
the average cow producing 11,813
pounds of milk; and yet this is the
year milk leaped to its 128.4 billion
pound total.
But despite this efficiency, the
United States does not lead in the
consumption of milk. The same
■ survey mentioned above points out
that though the U.S. enjoys its
milk, Scandinavians are the
largest consumers of fluid milk,
with a per-capita consumption
figure more than double that of the
