Dieter Krieg shares warm memories of Christmas on his family's York County farm. He recalls milked cows, straw for animals, and a German influenced celebration lasting from Christmas Eve into early January, with Silent Night inspired by moonlit barns and family togetherness.
Beginning in January 1976 Lancaster Farming will publish feature stories on farms in the same family for 100 years or more. Readers owning such a property deeded before December 31, 1876 should contact the editor with name, address, duration of family ownership, and directions to the farm. A reporter may visit to write the story and take photos.
A December 21 1973 lesson contrasts Herod’s cunning with the wise men’s failure to act on divine truth. It notes Bethlehem priests’ correct answers but wrong responses and contrasts gospel accounts with shepherds who worship the newborn king. It ends by urging reflection on power, piety, and true recognizing worship.
A county notice urges farm and home safety during the holiday season. It warns against overloaded circuits and shield removal on tractors, and stresses proper handling of evergreens. Upcoming events include the Pa Guernsey Breeders meeting January 6 at Camp Hill, a dairy herd program January 13 in Ephrata, a January 14 milking school at Lancaster, and the January 5-9 State Farm Show in Harrisburg.
