uyIn WEDNESDAY, MARCH 6, 1968 THE BULLETIN, MOUNT JOY, ~_ Prediction: Skirts Will Remain Short During 1968 WINSTON-SALEM, N. C. — Short skirts and exciting new styles and fashions in hosiery — that’s what American women can expect in 1968, according to James E, Gibson. And he should know. He's president of the Hosiery Division of Hanes Corporation, one of the world’s largest producers of legwear for women. +» “Our surveys in Europe and fa over this country revealed that the revolution in women’s fashion is just beginning,” he said. “From head to toe, women today are looking for mew excitement in their wearing apparel and ac- cessories and there is no real indication that skirts are ready to come down.” } What's the big item in hosiery? “Pantyhose is the excitement right now,” according to Mr. Gibson, “We haven't seen any- thing like this since Hanes intro- duced seamless stockings two decades ago. We expect the de- mand for pantyhose-to increase during 1968, and it is not incon. ceivable that one day this will be the basic hosiery for women.” k What's bringing all this about? &It’s the change in women’s attitude. Hosiery once was con- sidered nothing more than a leg covering; now it’s fashion ap- parel, an important part of the wardrobe. Women are more con- cerned now about what they put on their legs, more selective in their purchases, and they are willing to pay a higher price to get a superior, more attractive roduct,” says Mr. Gibson, “It’s his attitude that makes the American woman the best dressed §n the world.” + According to Mr. Gibson, one reason for the growing demand XR \ OU FO ’ for hosiery is the fact that girls are beginning to wear stockings at an earlier age, sometimes as young as 12. To help meet this demand, Hanes expects to pro duce well over 100 million pairs in 1968, in a wide variety of styles and colors. “Bright, lively colors, and ine teresting floral designs will be ‘in’ this year,” reports Mr. Gibson, who has three sons and no daughters, “Manufacturers will be taking advantage of the ‘flower power’ theme generated by the ‘swinging’ set.” ’ Over The Back By Max Smith MANY FOLKS have com- mented about the wonderful winter weather that we have had during the month of February. This has generally been true for everything ex- cept winter crops and plants. The topsoil has been very dry due to the lack of snow or rain; also, we have had very cold weather with many days of driving winds. All of this tends to dehydrate the plants and shrubs and re- moves more moisture than can be replaced by the roots. The result might well be some heavy winter injury showing up late this spring and summer. Trees and shrubs that are mulched or fields coated with strawy manure will suffer the least. AT A RECENT livestock meeting one of our Penn State Extension men remind- ed all of us of the great threat of foot and mouth dis- ease appearing in this coun- try. England is now fighting a very serious outbreak of this dreaded disease and it will require some very care- ful regulations on the part of our government and the co- operation of everyone to pre- vent an outbreak here in this country. Due to’'so much air travel, the chance of infec- tion is much greater than 50 years ago when it came into our country from Mexico, All livestock producers and agen cies are urged to be on the alert for suspicious animals; symptoms include high tem- perature, excess saliva from the mouth, sore places on the mouth and tongue, and lameness. Local veterinarians should be informed at once of any questionable animals. We must be on the alert. THE EASTER season is ap- proaching and ‘a time when sheep growers may want to market ‘their early spring lambs for top prices. In order "to get a top: quality -lamb with maximum weight by the middle of April, it is advis- able to supply a creep feeder for the lambs. This feeder should include grains such as corn and oats that will in- crease the returns from each ewe. A study of market con- ditions over the years will show that the Easter season carries most of the highest prices for market lambs of ali times of the year. Special at- tention to market a maxi- mum number of lambs dur- ing this period should in- crease lamb returns. DUE TO the large corn crop last fall, many farmers had to establish additional storage facilities for both ear corn and for silage. Those men who have corn silage stored in trench or bunker silos, and who are planning to transfer this silage into an upright silo, should make plans to do this job before warm weather arrives. Ex- perience has shown this trans fer can be successful during cold weather, but when the temperatures get into the 50’s and 60's, then we might get considerable spoilage due to the moving of the silage. At the recent cattle feeder’s meeting, it was quite evident that several local feeders had made this transfer into up- right silos during cold wea- ther, but not one had ex- perienced success by waiting until warm weather. If the silage seems dry, some extra water could be added at the silo blower. MRS. ROBERT TURNER Mrs. Robert Turner, 85, the former Annie Scott of Mar- ietta, was buried Monday, Mar. 4 in New York City. She was the daughter of the late Thomas Scott. Survivors in this area in- clude a neice, Mrs. Howard Shaub, Lancaster R2, and a cousin, Miriam Decker, of Marietta.
