This could be a repeal of last
week’s column as again I invited
guests for Sunday dinner. Despite
the big snow storm on Saturday, I
kept hoping that someone could
come to help us eat the big turkey
that I stuffed and roasted. Even
our son and his family could not
get here for the noon meal. Al
though, later in the day the road
was opened for the milk truck to
come and empty the full tank of
milk. Some people were not so
lucky, and they had to dump their
valuable milk.

In developing FORCE soil
insecticide. ICI simulated and improved on the
powerful chemistry found in chrysanthemum
flowers. The result is the first pyrethroid insecticide
designed for soil application.
Because of this unique chemistry, FORCE ranks
low in mammalian toxicity, which means very low
hazard to humans. In addition, the low water solu
bility and soil mobility of FORCE greatly reduces
any risk of leaching or groundwater contamination.

A few months ago a reader
wrote and asked me for a Pumpkin
Whoopie Pie recipe as she had
lasted some when she visited Lan
caster County in the summer. It
took a while for me to get one for
her. The First one that I found
came to me in a roundabout way.
You see, my daughter who lives in
Atlanta, Georgia visited her in

she bought a cookbook published

With this kind of winter weath
er, I’m sure that I’ll be able to fin
ish the red, blue, and grey braided
rug that I started a few weeks ago.
Some years, at this time, I would
have the garden planted. Al
though, I find that often peas
planted later catch up with those
put in cold soil two weeks earlier.
When the new vegetale and flower
seeds that 1 ordered come in the
mail, it makes me more anxious to
get started in the garden even
though I know how much hard
work it will be to keep all the
weeds hoed. But, I do enjoy the
work outdoors.

National Dairy Board
mittee of the National Dairy Pro
motion and Research Board met
last month to discuss action to take
in challenging misleading claims
made in the advertising of non
dairy products which compete for
shelf space and consumers’ stom
achs. The Board began their work
in this area by looking at the ad
vertising of four butter substitute
products.
With advice from legal counsel,
the 36 dairy farmers serving on the
National Dairy Board decided to
first write a letter directly to the
manufacturer, stating that the
dairy farmers of America object to
non-dairy butter substitute adver
tising including statements about
butter or inferences that those
products are natural like butter.
If manufacturers do not change
their advertising, the National
Dairy Board will submit a claim to
the National Advertising Division

(NAD) of the Better Business
Bureau. Criteria for submitting a
claim includes:
• advertising must be national;
• claims in advertising are
clearly false; and
• claims in advertising are mis
leading.
If necessary, members of the
National Dairy Board approved
talcing further steps to prod a
change in the advertising of non
dairy substitutes. If the NAD does
not rule for change in advertising,
the National Dairy Board will then
test one of the commercials with
consumers to find their reactions
and perceptions of the non-dairy
butter substitute advertising.
“Since this research
can cost around
$15,000, the board
hopes the findings can
lead to a favorable rul
ing, which could make
marketers of non-dairy
products think twice be
fore creating advertising
that implies non-dairy
products are as natural
and great tasting as real
dairy products,” said
Maureen Vamon, di
rector of advertising and
sales promotion for the
National Dairy Board.
