What's on TV? Saturday, July 16, 1966

I've probably mentioned this before (when has that ever stopped me, though?), but it's quite remarkable to see how the United States has changed from an agricultural-based economy to one that is largely urbanized and service-based, all in the course of my lifetime. Now I know I'm old, but still, look at the number of programs this morning that are ag-based: Agriculture U.S.A., White Collar Farmer, Voice of Agriculture, Focus on Farming, plus a couple of agriculture films. And then there are the Western series, Western movies, and programs that aim for the rural demographic. This isn't that uncommon in issues from around the country, but you see it particularly in Northern California, where this week's issue is based. Another time capsule moment?
