Santa Claus Comes to Levittown From The American Farmer
A long letter to Mickey de Lorenzo from a New York writer frames farmers as the true Santa. It recalls FLP and beef-price protests, notes cattle price declines since June, praises and critiques media coverage, and urges farm advocacy and unity amid political and chain-store pressures. The piece mixes personal anecdotes with critique of urban perceptions of farming.

Plan Rations for Pleasure Horses in Winter
Iowa State University Extension livestock specialist Tom Wickersham outlines a winter ration for pleasure horses. Feed about 1.5 pounds of good quality hay per 100 pounds of body weight, with possible one third pound of grain per hundredweight daily to maintain weight. Young horses may require grain for growth, and water should be plentiful and salt provided freely. Even idle horses still need adequate feed as part of winter care.
