NOTES

blue Hills and Shoofly Pie"
by Ann Hark is a book about the
quaint customs of the Pennsylva-
MIA Dutch, customs handed down
through generations.
The author, a native of this
community, spent a year travelling
about this picturesque section of
the country and writes with
authority about the delightful
traditions and legends of these
people. This charming book re-
veals what goes on at an Amish
Wedding, an outdoor singing and
a bunker love feast. Then too
there are the fascinating recipes
and the bountiful feasts so much
a part of Dutch life.
Those who have travelled
through the Pennsylvania Dutch
country will enjoy this delightful
story and will perhaps feel the
urge to go again. Ask for this
book at our library.

RABBITS VS. HUMANS

Columbus, Ohio-Credit Pen
nsylvania Game Protector c. E.
Jarrett with the Life Is Like
that" award for the week, for
his humorous version of the
rabbit-human relationship as
reported in the Pennsylvania
Fish and Game News release
recently.
Jarrett observed that during
the spring and summer, when
rabbits are chomping up tulip
shoots, cabbage, beet tips, etc.,
in the cities, his phone practi-
cally jumps off the table. It's
MY rabbits which are giving
them trouble. But when winter
comes and the urban trapping
and transfer program gets un-.
derway the picture changes.
It's "You can't trap OUR rab-
bits" or 1--WE Love Our Wild
life
Sounds like a story familiar
to the Ohio protectors too.

Would you be satisfied with a
gross return of $3.50 per livestock
unit from your beef, dairy herd, or
from your sheep flock That's the
kind of record you'd have to make
to equal three Ohio commercial
sheepmen who were recognized at
the 41st Annual Ohio Farm and

sity.
Robert P. Wilson, Fayette

Highland County; and Omar
Scheiderer, Union County, won the
commercial flock awards in the
Ohio Sheep Improvement Associa-
ton Program. They had gross
income from sale of lambs and
wool of S277.04, S22698, and
$685. .98 respectively, per animal
unit based on six ewes as an ami
NAL unit.
The Ohio Commercial Eve
Flock Production club program
emphasizes pounds of lambs per
eve exposed to rams plus pounds
of fleece per head and the quality
of lambs and wool marketed. The
basis for making the awards is a
score card which gives IS points
for highest gross returns per eve,
Is points for desirable feeding
and management practices, and 10
points for information in records
furnished. The records and prac-
tices were all checked by Animal

end the talks again if the Reds
did not begin to produce.
Gen. Harrison reminded the
Reds that they mentioned Burma.
Indonesia, Pakistan and India as
suitable Asian neutrals.
He said that unless they had
named these four for propaganda
purposes, I'VE must assume that
you consider each of the four"
to be neutral and competent and
therefore suitable.

chief Red delegate. answered
with a statement apparently
prepared in advance. He insist
ed that the first order of business
should be an agreement that
unwilling prisoners should be
transported physically to a neu-

Gen. Mans statement gave no
clue to the reason the Commu-
nistS had requested and re-
ceived a one-day recess over the
week end.
His argument was largely a
repeat of what he had said be-
fore.

Gen. Harrison said:
Time in this discussion is
running out. Are you prepared
to accept Pakistan as the neu-
tral nation? If not, we have no
further issue to discuss with
you"
Gen. Nam injected only one
new note into the discussion and
he quickly considered it a set
tied matter. He said the neu-
trail nation shall "place the
necessary armed forces to keep
guard" on prisoners unwilling to
go home and added that it was
"a practical question which must
be settled and is thus settled"

berShip or non-membership in

should be unlawful for an en-

The association said that the
