The globe-independent. (Hagerstown, Md.) 1943-19??, 1944-02-10

This was quite natural, too-because both the
cattle and the hogs were fed on grain the
farmer grew. The bread was baked from the
flour, milled from the grain he raised. And
the beer was brewed from his own home grown
barley, favored with hops grown in his herb
patch. And the same yeast that he used in
brewing his beer, he used, too, in baking his
bread.
In time, the farmer became "a specialist
raising only certain crops and buying in the
market what he did not raise. Today more
and more farmers buy bread from a nearby
town bakery, buy butter from the store in
town Give or ten minutes drive away Ibis
ham and bacon come from folks who specia-
lie in pork products, and his beer, he buys
by the case from a dealer in town.

we ARE IN AN AGE or
SPECIALIZATION

Maybe it is best for all of us. In any event,
it's lot easier on the women folk on the
farm. The modern bakery, the modern
creamery, the modern packing plant, the
modern brewery, lift great loads from the
shoulders of the farmers wives and daughters.
Life on the farm is an easier life-the good
fresh air, the active day-to-day exercise, and
then the mere sight of the dinner and supper
table-they all combine to make the country
ham and the well brown bread and the fresh
butter taste as of old-and the tall, slim glass
of NATIONAL BOHEMIAN is as much part of
the home life at mealtime as when each farmer
brewed his own beer
