WE ARE aware of the gen-
eral comment that food prices
have risen so much in recent
years and most of us are ex-
periencing this fact; however
I would like to point out
that not all items purchased
al the grocery store these
days are food items; surveys
show that about 20% of the
money spent at the grocery
store is not for food items.
Retail food stores have be-
come major outlets for many
non-food items such as drugs,
clothing, toys, stationery and
many other items. Our non-
farm friends should not feel
that the farmer is getting
a penny of the non-food items
and only about one-third of
the dollars spent for food.
Processing and servicing costs
continue to mount in spite of
less return to the producer.
SWINE producers have ex-
perienced a very profitable
year and the outlook seems
favorable for a quality pork
preduct. At this time of the
year when many herds are
being bred for spring far-
rowing, I'd like to stress the
importance of using a good
mezt-type boar. Present mar-
kets demand a carcass with
maximum red meat and less
lard The breeder should rec-
ognize this fact and try to
produce animals carrying
these qualities. The meat-type
animals may be found in any
breed and should be used in
order to increase profits from
the feeding business. Breed-
ing animals with length,
heavy muscling, and trimness
should be the aim of all bree-
ders

be tolerated on any farm or
property and now is a good
time to keep them from ac-
cepting your place as their
winter home, With colder
weather coming the rodent
problem about buildings will
become more severe. All
grain bins and storage places
should be rodent-proofed in
order to preserve this valu-
able property. Production
costs are high without allow-
ing the rodents to eat and de-
stroy any. They are a fire
hazard about buildings and
may carry diseases from oth-
er livestock or poultry. A
good cleanup program is one
place to start followed by
the elimination of any pos-
sible nesting place. Stone
walls, foundations, walks,
floors, and other places where
they may harbor should be
concreted and kept tight.
Poison bait stations will also
help keep both rats and mice
under control. Don’t put up
with them; wage a special
eradication program against
them now.
THE PROBLEM of keeping |
well informed on any phase!
of agriculture or grounds-
keeping is a big one; changes
are taking place at all times
and today’s recommendations
may be out of date this time
next month. Id like to sug-
gest the use of the Correspon-
dence courses at Penn State
university for the benefit of
those who are not able to go
away to college. These cours-
es by mail are available only
to Pennsylvanians and cover
all phases of Agriculture and
Home Economics. A nominal
fee is charged to cover expen-
ses. Interested persons should

ence Courses, Box No. 5000,

Help Child
Learn of Money
A child will take better
care of his possessions when
he knows he must spend his
own allowance to replace lost
or damaged items. That's one
advantage of a regular allow-
ance, says Mrs. Marguerite L.
Duvall, extension child de-
velopment and family life
specialist of Penn State uni-
versity.
It’s easy to lose something
if parents will replace it. But
when a child has to spend his
own money, it’s a different
story.
A child learns to make
wise choices when he has an
allowance, Mrs. Duvall points
out. Perhaps he'll shop a-
round before buying, or learn
that he can’t buy everything
he wants, and he'll have to
decide what is most impor-
tant to him.
Parents don't always ap-
preciate the choices a child
makes. What is important to
him frequently seems foolish
to parents. Father may be-
lieve it's much wiser for the
child to buy sensible sport
shirts. But the shirt he buys
is the one he wants, the one
he'll take care of, and the
one he will probably wear
until it's threadbare.
Through his own buying
experiences, a child can learn
whether an article is worth
the price. It may take shop-
ping around. However, it may |
be that when he finds how
much the item costs, he does
not really want it, Mrs. Du-
vall adds.

SHOP CAREFULLY FOR
DRAPERY, AND
CURTAIN FABRICS
Before buying new fabrics
for curtains or draperies, de-
cide what the fabric needs to
do in a room.
ecide whether the fabric
should filter light and strong
sun rays, give privacy, cut
drafts, or muffle sounds. A
fabric also. helps to establish
a mood or feeling. It can
make a room seem smaller
or more spacious. Since this
is a major purchase it should:
Give visual satisfaction; ful-
fill the need for which it was
bought; give the wear expect-
ed of it; wash or dryclean
satisfactorily; fit into the
long-range home furnishings
budget.
Many of us judge window
fabrics by color and beauty,
but expect them to last for
several years. No fibers are
designed to hold up under all
conditions, each has certain
advantages and limitations.
Remember that weave, the
weight of yarn, and the fin-
ishing process affect the way
a fabric performs.

Arena, December 6 to 10.
The Williams Family, star-
red for the second season in
Ice Follies which opens a 5-
day run at Hershey Sports
Arena Tuesday, December 6,
became an act on advice from
a friend in Chicago.
Pat and Johnny Williams,
Gold Medal roller skaters and
later successful ice show
skaters in Chicago, were not
too sure of their future as a
duo. A friend pointed out
that 2 year-old Debbie, who
had skated since she was 18
months old, would make a
natural addition to the act.
So Pat and Johnny took
daughter Debbie home to Co-
lumbus, Ohio, to work up an
act—and became the “First
Family of the Ice.” The new
act was extremely successful
and when Robbie, now 9,
came along, he wanted to
skate, too. Today, the Wil-
liams family is one of the
most successful ice novelty
acts in the business.
At a time of life when most
little girls are dreaming of
what they will be some day,
Debbie, a bright and twink-
ling 12 year-old, is trying to
decide on a new career. She
already has had ten years as
a featured skater throughout
the United States, Canada,
and Mexico. She also has

AVOID PLASTIC HANGERS
Clothes cleaned in a coin-
operated drycleaning estab-
lishment may have an odor of
cleaning fluid. Air the clothes
before wearing or storing, ad-
vise Penn State extension
clothing specialists. But do
not use plastic hangers. Some-
times enough solvent is left
in heavy fabrics or shoulder
pads to soften the plastic,
then the hanger sticks to the
fabric so it’s hard to remove
without damaging the gar-
ment.

KEEP SEAMS FROM
PUCKERING
When seams pucker, it’s a
sign that your sewing mach-
ine needs adjusting for the
type of thread you're using.
Usually, puckering indicates
that both top and bottom ten-
sions need loosening, says
Ruth Ann Nine, Penn State
extension clothing specialist.
To aid you in making neces-
sary adjustments, refer to the
instruction book that came
with your machine.

Unclaimed promises are
like uncashed checks; they
will keep us from bankrupt,
cy, but not from want.

FIRST FAMILY ON ICE

Front-to-back, it’s Debbie (12) and Robbie (9) with their par-
eats, Pat and Johnny Williams. The Williams Family is on a
picnic in the"Magical Garden of Dreams” in the new Shipstads
playing at the Hershey Sports
~ NIF 67-3
acted in summer stock and
has done television commer-
cials.
Debbie loves to skate
but she also likes singing.
She’s a talented.singer and
has made several records, in-
cluding “Rock Garden Rock”
which she sings in this year’s
Ice Follies.
Whatever course her future
might take, one thing is cer-
tain her school work is
more pressing than her car-
eer, present and future. Deb-
bie and her brother study by
correspondence, working 3 to
4 hours daily under the tute-
lage of Ice Folliettes Nancy
Burns and Linda Dee, both
university graduates.
The Williams family func-
tions as a unit in Ice Follies’
“Going on a Picnic’, while
Debbie is a featured soloist
in the “Magical Garden of
Dreams” production.
Ice Follies is scheduled for
7 shows, nightly at 8:10, on
Tuesday through Friday and

Presents Book
To Local Library
In conjunction with Na-
tional Children’s Book Week
—October 30 through Novem-
ber 5 — the Lancaster Auto-
mobile Club has presented an
appropriate book titled ‘Pa-
trol Boy” to the Mount Joy
Public Library.
The presentation was made
at the Library by Dean Gable
of the Auto Club and Troop-
er Edwin Grazer, School
Safety officer of Troop J,
Penna. State Police.
The 96-page book, written
by the noted children’s auth-
or Marjorie GG. Fribourg,
gives an interesting and com-
posite picture of school safety
patrol groups in a typical su-
burban community.
The school safety patrols
were first organized in the
early 1920’s by the Chicago
Motor Club, and then estab-
lished on a national scale by
the American Automobile As-
sociation. The first Patrol in
Lancaster County was organ-
ized in 1929. Today all Ele-
mentary and most Junior
high schools have patrols.
Gable pointed out that
since the safety patrols were
organized, they have been
one of the bright spots in the
traffic accident picture. “Dur-
ing their more than 40-years
of existence”, he said: “the
traffic death rate involving
school age children has drop-
ped by nearly 50 percent,
while the rate for other age
