VANISHING AMERICANS"

THEY started in 1946-late in the fall when
the land was asleep. They started with 60
"good-for-nothing" acres; with a thousand
dollar debt; with kind of simple, idealistic
confidence that was supposed to have gone out
of Style with Horatio Alger.
That's how it was when twenty-two-year-old
Gene and Sally Ringgenberg moved onto this
land Of their own-6O WORKOUT acres near
Pierceton, Indiana. Their son, Kerry, was just
baby, only six months old.
"And some people thought Gene was just
baby, too" Sally recalls. "Sure to be burned on
farm nobody'd ever been able to succeed with
before. Corn crops so bad-they weren't worth
picking"
Today, those go barren acres Of 1916 represent
a neat, alfalfa-covered corner of the 200-acre
family business which the Ringgenbergs call
Green Top Farm"
The boy, Kerry, an eighth-grader now, has
sister, Karen, born in 1948-the same year
Gene and Sally completed the land-buying por-
ton of their drive to make 60 Of it on the
farm.
And on this farm today, the Ringgenbergs are
feeding herd of 80 Holstein, go Of them milk
cows, the rest young stock. Production last
year-ten to eleven thousand pounds Of milk
per cow - total of over one-half-million
pounds.
"You know, the doubters Of 1916" says Gene,

"would've been convinced we were crazy, II
we'd told them these 200 acres could feed more
than 80 or 40 cows. No telling what they'd
have thought if they knew the plans we have
today. believe we can build this farm without
buying more acreage-build it so, when Kerry
and Karen grow up, there'll be living here
for three families, not just one." y.
Certainly these aren't words you'd expect TO
hear from the head Of an economic unit-ths
family farm-which is supposed to be on the
way out. Certainly the Ringgenberg recordeto
date lives up to the promise Offences words.
Confidence verified by record
And there's even more bite to his words when
you think of this-there are no hired hands. at
Green Top Farm. All the work is the Ringgen-
bergs' own. Last year, for example, the IN
vestment in outside labor was just $1,000 Gar
less than city family might spend on baby

What's their secret?
"No secret to it." says Gene. "Lots of farmers
are doing as we are It's matter of managing
the farm as DISTINGUISHING the new toeb
and ideas and methods that'l help you produce
more efficiently. -
When farm fails, figure it's like any bust

Mrs. Nina Khrushchev Wis
tied a typical American home
this morning, and threw the
3700 block of Taylor street in
Chevy Chase, Md, into an up
roar.
AS the wife Of the Soviet
Premier and the Premier's elder
daughter toured the Colonial
style house of John Armitage. a
Soviet desk officer with the
State Department, children
and dogs ran all over the lawn
outside and neighbors stared
from nearby doorways.
Mrs. Khrushchev arrived at
II o'clock following a tour of
a dry-cleaning plant in Silver
Spring.
Mrs. Armitage, who had been
given almost no notice of her
impending visit. was standing
at the entrance, looking cool
and pretty in a red check shirt
waist dress.

Of Typical Home in Chevy Chase

She and her husband first
invited Mrs. Khrushchev, the
daughter and Mrs. Henry Cabot
Lodge and Mrs. Foy Kohler. the
travelling companions, to sit
down for cup of coffee and a
chat. Then the Armitages took
their guests on a tour through
the eight-room house.
Mrs. Khrushchev show e d
greatest interest in a tile floor
in the dining room. She had
seen this type of tile on a shop
ping trip in San Francisco, and
was amazed when told that Mr..
Armitage had put it down HIM
self.
Other do-it-yourself features
of the house impressed her al
most as much. She couldn't
understand, Mrs. Armitage said
later. how a housewife found
time to make shutters for the
windows.
