D26-Lancaster Farming Saturday, November 11,1989 More Producers Raising Birds For Hunting UNIVERSITY PARK (Centre Co.) More than 1,000 people in Pennsylvania now raise game birds. This is a ten-fold increase in the last IS years. Pheasants, chu kar, quail, wild turkey, mallard ducks, and a few rare breeds like ornamental pheasants or Hunga rian partridge make up most of these birds. Nearly all these people are part time growers, a little more than a dozen farmers are full-time com mercial game bird enterprises. Many hundred new part-time and full-time jobs have been created by this growing industry. Game bird growers tell us that producing birds is financially risky, biologi cally variable, and, in some cases, heartbreaking; but it is still exciting. Penn State is sponsoring a con ference on game birds which will be held February 25, 26, and 27, 1990 at the Holiday Inn, State College, Pennsylvania. This con ference is usually attended by approximately 100 growers and hunting club operators from eight or so different states.

The world’s most demanding farmers prefer M-F 300 Series tractors. These popular 50-90 PTO hp tractors are a big reason why Massey-Ferguson is the Western World’s largest tractor manufacturer. In fact, one in every five tractors now<sold in the Western World is an M-F. What makes Massey-Ferguson the practical choice? An M-F 300 Series tractor gives you all the ben efits of advanced Ferguson system hydraulics, for one thing. Plus the unmatched lugging power and fuel economy of a world-famous Perkins diesel engine. And with Massey-Ferguson, you get hydrostatic steering'as standard equipment, not as an option. LEBANON VALLEY IMPLEMENT CO. 700 E Linden St. Richland.
