It is possible, that no other publication, other than the 13ible and dictionary, has been read by more people (well over 4 million copies in 1972) than, the Farmers'. Altnanac. It was "almost a way of life for many of our. grandparents and great- grandparents with its weather ° forecasts (there is a special Canadiansection), and timing for the planting of crops, and treating of livestock, and then there are calendars, recipes, "wife savers", a fishing guide, history, astrology, • astronomy, and last,' but 'not least, the Almanac humour. ' Ray Geiger has been the Editor for 39 of the 156 years of publication --- there have been just five editors altogether. Ray graduated with honours in philosophy from Notre • Dame University in 1932, and joined his father in the family business, Geiger Brothers Printing, Bookbinding, and Advertising Specialties: One of his duties was to assist the Editor of the =&area-Almaxaerand;in, when the Editor retired, he asked him to take over, Much of the material used in the Almanac comes from its army of readers (some 20,000 fetters are received each year). The Bishop of Atlanta is a lar contributor; and so is a long-time inmate- of a Kansas prison (he has lots of time to read and clip, but Ray hopes he ,is not serving a term for plagiarism). The recipes and household hints are contributed by the lovely Mrs. Ann Geiger, ,. and the weather predictions are prepared by Harry K. Buie,a former Piofeesor .of =Astronomy at the University of Florida.
