No chicken in Chicken Pot Pie?” Berks county dairyman Ernie Millar Is vies chairman of the State Ag Republicans. You can make the difference We need registered Republi can farmers and agribusiness people to help in key House and Senate races. A switch of three seats in the fall elections will give Republicans control of the Pen nsylvania House. Two races could decide who controls the state senate. Join Ag Republicans and get the job done.

Pennsylvania AG REPUBLICANS 23.000 22.000 26,000 358.000 342.000 342.000 asks Ernie Miller In 1989, our Democrat gover nor signed a proclamation making March 20 meatless day in Pennsylvania. It wonders me. Didn't his advisors tell him agriculture is Pennsylvania's No. 1 industry? Didn't he know that state farmers rang up $2,357,800,000 in 1988 from livestock and live stock products alone? Or didn't he care? The governor got the word for his “Great American Meatout Day" from those true sons of the soil the Farm Animal Reform Movement. Only one other governor followed suit. These FARM yahoos want to make us all vegetarians. Believe me. They visualize Pennsylvania green with broccoli and rural roads lined with cords of zucchini. I keep visualizing ham and eggs without the ham. And chicken pot pie without chicken Frankly, the governor just doesn't know what good is. Next Tuesday is March 20. if the governor again proclaims meatless day, there's always currant-glazed squash with orange rice stuffing. Awkl Me? I'm going to help elect a Republican governor and stop all this nonsense. 112 State Street Harrisburg, PA 17101 SHEEP 21,000 17.000 25.000 62.000 58.000 74.000 ♦HOGS* 325.000 273.000 331.000 962.000 884.000 970.000 Carlisle Livestock Market Carlisle, Pa.
