Political Quotes

“In August I was proud to recognize someone from Pennsylvania's Fifth Congressional District who made a big contribution to the Commonwealth's largest industry-- agriculture. James Davis was the recipient of the Huntingdon County Pomona Grange #6 Community Service Award. Mr. Davis has been a strong advocate for agriculture over the past 50 years. As a child, he attended a one-room schoolhouse before graduating from Juniata Valley High School and later earning a degree in agricultural sciences from Penn State University and a master of arts degree from West Virginia University. He dedicated his life to agriculture education, teaching in Butler, Lebanon, Fulton, and Franklin Counties. He also taught agriculture, science, math, social studies, and English in Juniata Valley School District, later becoming an elementary principal. Along with his brother, he has operated the Peaceful Terrain Farm, which has been in the Davis family since 1832. Jim continues to serve as a volunteer in his community and is an enthusiastic mentor for countless youth across Huntingdon County. Congratulations, Jim. You have earned it. ____________________”
