particularly enjoys trips to
Delaware for the goose hunting
and traveling to Hudson Bay in
Canada because, “There are no
phones or anything.”
Bill is looking forward to retiring
m a few more years. “If it wasn’t
for Bobby,” he admits, “I’d be out
of this now.” But he’s concerned
about the future of direct produce
marketing. He’s keenly aware of
the problems because his farm
land skirts the edge of the Altoona
area, near major highways and
shopping malls.
“Our customers are changing,”
he says. “People used to come in
here and buy 50 lbs. of potatoes at a
time. Now they just want enough
for 2 or 3 days. And we don’t get the
strawberry picking that we used
to. People will come in for a couple
of quarts instead of 25 or 30 like in
the past.”
His other worry is finding
adequate help. “When we started
we had a lot of older people helping
out in the fields. They needed the

money. But today with Social
Security and working longer,
adults aren’t interested in field
work.” Right now he relies on
teenagers, most of whom are from
nearby Hollidaysburg. “We used to
get more kids from the country.
The ones we get now are from
town, and they don’t have any idea
how hard the work is going to be, so
we lose a lot of them right away.”
He notes that he’s been lucky so
far with most of the people who
work in the fields and the market,
but wonders if the pool of depend
able people is going to disappear in
the future.
With corn season about over, Bill
is looking forward to the cool days
of autumn and the wedges of geese
that will call him away to do some
relaxing. A little time to himself
and then it’s back to repairing
equipment, starting the seedlings
down at the greenhouse, and
putting aside the thought of
retirement for a while longer as he
reorganizes for the next year.

share of the work? Right now!
Don’t wait until some emergency
hits your family and children have
to take over on the spot. Learning
to be responsible and to do a good
job of keeping a home running
takes time to learn and time to
teach. You owe it to yourself and to
your children to do it right.
Start with meals. After all,
everyone gets to eat. Why
shouldn’t everyone be part of the
preparation and the clean-up?
Then think about laundry. Even in
a family of two or three laundry
takes time. So everyone who wants
clean clothes should take some
responsibility for doing the work.
Yard work and home maintenance
are logical extensions of family
work.
No matter what the job, you can
make the difference by being clear
in your instructions. Don’t just say
“do it.” Don’t assume “everyone”
knows how to load a washing
machine and sort the clothes. Be
clear, be kind, and be patient. But
most important of all, take the
time to teach your growing
children how to be independent and
how to do their share. It’s only fair.
About Enrichment And
Fortification Of Foods
The terms “enrichment” and
“fortification” have been part of
the food industry for a long time.
But these terms still create con
fusion amoung many consumers.
The enrichment process
replaces nutrients lost during the
processing and refining of food.
Enrichment of flour, bread, rice,
cereal, commeal, spaghetti, and
macaroni products refers to the
addition of the B vitamins

short, fortification helps to supply
nutrients that would otherwise be
hard for some people to get in their
regular diets.
Enrichment and fortification
have both played an important role
in improving nutrition in the
United States. However, the
federal Food and Drug Ad
ministration does limit the amount
of nutrients that can be added to
foods. Without limits, food com
panies might complete with each
other to see who could come up
with the most nutritionally com
plete super-food. Such all-purpose
super-foods are not necessary for
people who eat a variety of
nutritious foods.
Be in the know. Read the label to
determine whether a food is
enriched or fortified and what
nutrients have been added.

(thiamine, riboflavin and niacin)
and the mineral iron. There is no
need to enrich whole-grain foods
such as whole wheat bread and
flour since they contain their
original nutrients naturally.
Fortification goes a step beyond
enrichment. In this process, a
nutrient is added that was not
originally present in the food or
that was present in a smaller
amount, such as vitamin D milk,
vitamin A fortified margarine,
iodized salt and fruit drinks with
vitamin C added. Certain bread
and cereal products are fortified
with extra vitamins and minerals.
Better quality protein sources are
obtained by fortifying some
products with certain amino acids.
In some communities, the drinking
water is fortified with fluoride. In
