'Thursday. January 14. 1982 Anniversary Celebration . Conservation activities will receive special em phasis when the Tidewater Council celebrates the 72nd anniversary of the Boy Scouts of America,' February 7-13. More than 8,000 youth members in southeastern Virginia and northeast North Carolina will carry out a variety of activities with the theme, “The Better Life ... Through Con servation.” The Boy Scouts of America is presently con ducting a year-long program emphasis, “Save Our American Resources (SOAR) for the Better Life,” which involves conservation projects and earning conservation and environmental awards. Many other activities also are being scheduled for Scouting Anniversary Week. Planning for these activities is headed by E. Geary Crist, Council Activities Chair man, and a stock broker with Branch Cabell. Among the traditional activities for the annual observance are Cub Scout blue and gold banquets, Boy Scout parents’ nights and courts of honor, and Explorer family nights or open houses. In addition. Scouting Sabbath and Scouting Sunday are important parts of the week’s events. February 8 is Scouting Anniversary Day when members traditionally rededicate themselves to the Cub Scout Promise, Scout Oath, or Explorer Code. There are 8,850 Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and Explorers in the Tidewater Council which serves 360 Scouting units chartered to more than 300 religious, civic, and community in stitutions. Farm Practices Showing Change Family farming and the way farm animals are raised have changed significantly in the past 20 years. Farmers now place their animals in an en vironment that encourage rapid growth and high production. However, farmers are well aware that animals under stress do not gain weight rapidly, nor do they produce as many eggs or as much milk. The illness or death of a farm animal has a direct impact on the far mer’s pocketbook; therefore, he knows that it is in his best interest to ensure that his animals are well cared for. In fact, many of the changes farmers have made in the care of farm animals are the direct result of a need to improve animal health in addition to meeting consumer demand and responding to changing economic conditions. Unfortunately, the American public is being deceived by distored, misleading and malicious reports that falsely accuse farmers of mistreating or abusing farm animals. The following quotation is typical of published material that blatantly disregards the truth: “Small, diversified family farms are giving way to large, systemized con finement systems. Crowding masses of animals together causes stress, germ buildup, filthy air and other conditions that invite disease. The abuses of factory fanning will con tinue until we make basic changes in the way we use technology to produce f00d...” Tbe truth is that in earlier days when farm animals roamed free they picked up parasites, were disease prone and fell prey to predators. In most cases, animals now raised in confinement have adapted to this type of agriculture and could not survive well in' a barnyard or range en vironment. For obvious reasons, no one has greater concern for the care of farm animals than the farmer who raises them.
