Ida’s
Notebook
isser
Just hunted my 1966 diary to
see what our family was doing the
week of June Ist It certainly is
quite different from our lives
today.
June I—Nancy at rehearsal for
graduation. Sold peas for 4S£ a
quart and store then sold them for
$1.38 a quart Allen got parts in
Lancaster for machinery. I hoed
garden and Jeffrey rototilled.
Allen and youngest at the doctor.
June 2 My father recovering
from a heart attack. Children left
in four shifts this morning. I put
houseplants in the garden and
stored sweaters in mothballs.
Allen helped a neighbor take
clutch out of his tractor. He put
silage on a wagon for hungry cows
that got into newly planted com
field.
June 3 Nancy got all A’s on
ANY JOB, ANY PLACE, ANY TIME
When not just any tractor will do, see the new Kubota B-Series or Grand L models at your local Kubota
dealer.
Let them show you how a new B-Series, or the innovative Grand L-Series, can be the tractor for you in a
variety of jobs, places or seasons.
Both the new B's and Grand L's feature Kubota's state-of-the-art E-TVCS diesel engines that deliver more
power, with cleaner emissions. These tractors are designed for noticeably lower noise and vibration, while rear
and mid-PTO's ensure that you will be able to use your Kubota B- or Grand L-Series tractor for all the jobs you
do all year 'round.
The all new 13-18 PTO HP B-Series models give you bigger tractor features, in a compact tractor size.
2 or 4WD, power steering, optional Bi-Speed turn and hydrostatic transmission. The new sleek design
enhances operator visibility and ease of operation, without sacrificing the rugged dependability you expect
from a Kubota.
The Grand L-Series has a choice of transmissions: the new fully synchronized main transmission with
synchro-shuttle that allows shifting-on-the-go through the 4 main gears, or the new GST (Glide Shift
Transmission) which allows shifting-on-the-go through all 8 speeds.
Both run smoothly and efficiently with the new larger diameter .
capacity clutch. A roomy operator deck is ISO-mounted to greatly
reduce vibration. Tilt wheel, power steering and high back seat add
to operator comfort.
Take a look today at Kubota's new B- or Grand L-Senes for any
job, any place at any time!

JUNIATA (Huntingdon Co.)
Emily Metz of Allensville was
crowned Huntingdon County’s
new dairy princess in a pageant
recently held at the Juniata Valley
Elementary School. The only con
testant for the crown, Emily pre
sented her skit and speech as part
of the evening program.
Emily Metz is the daughter of
Larry and Brucette Metz. Emily
care of two-and-one-half year old
Cindy when we went to bacca
laureate at eight o’clock.
June 6 Started washing late
as 1 picked 14 quart of sugar peas
first I phoned neighbors and sold
them. Baler broke for Allen. My
mother went along to Nancy’s
graduation.
June 7 I starched the wash (I
don’t do that now). Allen went for
parts and worked on the tractors.
Jeffrey ran 660 yard dash faster
then anyone in his class. Judy
stopped taking piano lessons as
' she really hates to practice. I dug
hundreds of plantain weeds from
the front yard.
It surely was an active lifestyle
with six children all going diffe
rent directions.
