Joseph Keffer, Catholic (Continued On Page Eight) AGENT CALLS PREVENTION BEST FOR RICKETS Like the old fallacy about locking the stable after the horse is stolen, treating calves for rickets after they have them is not the same as preventing the disease. Not by far, says Adams County Farm Agent M. T. Hartman. A nutritional disease, rickets results from a deficiency of vitamin D.

The animal is unable to store sufficient mineral in the bones and they get soft. The bones bend under the weight of the animal, causing bowed legs, knock knees, roached back, low loin, drooped tail head, and depression behind the withers. Once these deformities occur thev cannot be corrected. To prevent rickets, the county airent reminds to supply vitamin in the calf ration in form of irradiated yeast ilH pounds per ton of grain) until the calves are 10 months old. he adds, rickets occur before starting to use vitamin because much damage that cannot be repaired may be done before the rickets are observed.

Once thev occur, the feeding of any amount of vitamin can only arrest deformities, and they will persist for life although added growth may make them less Hay is a natural source of vitamin D. but unless this is of excellent quality, yeast mixed with the grain feed may be necessary.

The Adams County Historical Society held its final meeting at the season last evening, making a tour of several church cemeteries, where they heard histories of their founding. Headed by Dr.

Fred Tilberg and Dr. Henry Stewart, a group of more than 20 members met at the high school to begin the trip which lasted for several hours. They visited Blacks graveyard, north of Gettysburg, between the Lincoln highway and the Mummasburg road. Dr. Stewart related the history of the Presbyterian church which stood there and was known as the Upper Adams Presbyterian Church of Marsh Creek of the county of York.

The grave of the first regular pastor, the Rev. Robert McOraie, is in the cemetery. The congregation was organized not later than 1740, and a log church was built near the cemetery in 1748. It was replaced by one of stone in 1780. It was moved to Gettysburg in 1814, to a site on North Washington street, near the Reading railroad, and later moved to its present location, at Baltimore and High streets.

Dr. Stewart said that inscriptions on the stones of 75 graves were recognizable and that no one had been buried in that cemetery for the past 75 years. The next stop was at the Marsh Creek Church of the Brethren, south of the Knoxlyn Mill road, along Marsh Creek. This is the mother church of the Gettysburg Church of the Brethren and is served by the Rev. Roy K.

Miller, Gettysburg, who told its history. He said tne ground was given by David Pfoutz in 1805 and that the first section of the church was built in 1830. An addition was built in 1878 and the first paid pastor of the church was elected in 1945. Before that time, elders of the church preached without pay. The Lower Marsh Creek Presbyterian church cemetery was visited next and the pastor, the Rev.

Harry S. Ecker was present to give an early history of the cemetery which dates from considered the founding year of the church. Plans are underway for a bi-centennial celebra- 1 tion later in the year. The first minister was the Rev. Andrew Bay, who was a veteran of the French and Indian War.

The first church stood close to the cemetery, was made of logs, and was the building in which the Carlisle Presbytery W'as organized in 1786. The church was later moved to its present location, along the Fairfield road, five miles west of Gettysburg. In the cemetery is the grave of the first pastor, the Rev. William Paxton, dated 1792 to 1841. The cemetery also contains graves of 23 veterans of the Revolutionary War and ten Civil War veterans.

The group then visited the church where the Rev. Mr. Ecker described the cnanges made in the church architecture between 1850 and 1891. He said that early church records were missing due to the fact that they had been taken to Chambersburg for safe keeping during the Civil War but were destroyed during the burning of that towm. He said that eleven pastors had served the church in the past 200 years.
