Peach Creek Philosopher Lays Out 1962 Farming Outlook
The Peach Creek Philosopher critiques farm experts and shares a personal 1961 farm year recount on Rt. 3 Shiner. He argues farmers expect improvement despite forecasters’ bad 1962 outlook and notes his humorous bookkeeping with faded records and a belief in self reliance. He also mentions a local screening of On the Double at Palace Theatre and lists Christmas Eve visitors from several nearby towns.
