A 1958 Lancaster County look at the tobacco market criticizes chaotic bidding and low prices. The piece suggests a statewide auction system or tobacco exchange, encouraging farmers to organize contracts and auctions to secure steadier, fairer prices.
A flawed opinion piece claims the Soviet Embassy operates a “red mill” mailing propaganda from 1706 18th St NW to influence U.S. officials and the public. It accuses Moscow of using press freedom as cover while denying similar access to Russians, urging government scrutiny and transparency.

In this 1958 fragment from Lancaster Farming a devotional notes Luke 11 4 31 14 and Galatians 4 4 7 as well known themes. It discusses how the Roman empire used a vast, career driven administration to impose peace, shaping even the Jewish priesthood within its political system.
The teaching notes describe the first three gospels as letters of Paul not, and discuss why the gospels focus on Jesus. They frame Jesus as a real historical figure in a world of Roman and Greek officials, with the Messiah expectation shaping Jewish hopes. The Synoptics are seen as similar, with John offering a different approach, all centering on Jesus and inviting personal allegiance.
