  • The Executive's Economy

    By DON EDWARDS

        Does anyone reading this think that our Country, the United States of America, has lost some of its power and prestige in the last few years?

        This week I have a picture of an event that doesn’t take place much anymore. How many readers  can remember when folks would have the annual ‘hog killling’ and preserve the meat for another year?

It does not affect us (U.S.A.) one way or the other.”

        Okay, so I am  guessing that many of you readers will appreciate seeing these old pictures as much as I have. I could just sit and search out the things in the picture that reminds me of the way I lived as a child or at least have heard of folks who lived this lifestyle. If you don’t, please bear with me.
