Busy schedules for R.V. students By INA SPIVEY Over fifty agriculture students from Round Valley high school are involved in summer work experience and supervised project work this year. Contracting hay, breaking horses, working in the woods, pumping gas, doctoring cattle, moving irrigation pipe, home improvement, working in the many business establishments, thinning apples, and many, many other functions. You name it and you'll usually find an agriculture student involved. The main function of the summer work experience is to earn money, gain experience and develop work habits that will mean the difference between success and failure in later life.

Other objectives include gaining practical knowledge, skills and insight that lead to interesting and profitable full time agriculture careers. Employers of these hardworking students have the opportunity to give a work experience evalua tion of the student. This evaluation sheet includes a sheet of the following traits; responsibility, cooperation, thoroughness, and the ability to stay with a job until complete, ability to work with others, pride of workmanship, speed, and accuracy, following instructions ancj maturity plus emotional stability. The evaluation is placed in the student's accumulative files and employers also have a chance to recommend skills, knowledge, and attitudes that Round Valley high school could utilize in development of a better worker. With farming as Americas biggest industry and the importance of raising and Journal Thursday, August 2, 1973 Ukiah Dally Journal, Uklah Ag unions prepare to fight Must share food, says Humphrey marketing an abundance of high quality food becoming more important, the need for a highly educated and skilled farming population grows daily; these students are only a small percentage of those in the country today, learning agriculture skills for the future.

By BERNARD BRENNER UPI Farm Editor WASHINGTON (UPI) The worldwide wave of food inflation and frantic pressure on available food supplies over the past year has dramatically demonstrated the need for world "sharing" agreements, Sen. Hubert H. Humphrey, D- says. Humphrey's comment comes at a time when administration officials are saying they intend to end current temporary limits on soybean exports this fall and to avoid controls on grain exports if current 1973 harvest forecasts are borne out. In spite of these statements, grain traders had been speculating widely about the possibility of further limits on exports to avoid high prices at home.

Humphrey did not directly advocate imposition of controls. But if they should be needed, he said, "we simply cannot pursue a course of imposing (them) without proper advance consultation with other nations, and in pairticular those who depend on us for supply." He said every effort should be made, if limitations are needed, to reach voluntary agreements. "But more significantly, with the prospect of continued pressure on is imperative that we enter into some form of international agreements or understandings that will face up to the need of sharing the supply without the extreme measures of sudden and unexpected mandatory controls," Humphrey added. A veteran of more than two decades of farm and international food policy activity, Himiphrey said tiie U.S. is facing a crushing load of problems this fall including the prospect that transportation shortages may produce near- chaotic conditions in handling this year's big harvests.

He said the search for long-term solutions also should include plans to build up future years of surplus production reserve that could cushion prices in years of short supply. But for the immediate future, Humphrey said in a statement drafted for delivery in the Senate, "it is imperative that we have a policy and let the rest of the world know what it is." The policy, he said, should give "due regard" to U.S. needs and proper advance notice to countries which depend on imports of American grain, soybeans and other products.

Through the years the trend has been toward drier Martinis until today's version is a far cry from where it started. Originally it was called a AAartlnez Cocktail and the recipe was published in 1862 in a book called "The Bon VIvant's Companion." It called for one dash of bitters, two dashes of maraschino liqueur, one ounce Old Tom gin, four ounces Vermouth (It didn't specify whether sweet or dry and two small lumps of ice. "Shake up thoroughly, and strain into a large cocktail glass. Putaquarterof a sllceof lemon In the glass and serve. If the guest prefers it very sweet, add two dashes of gum syrup." By the time the cocktail came to be known as a AAartini, It had become a mixture of equal parts dry gin and dry Ver, mouth.

Between Repeal In 1933 and World War II, the standard recipe was four parts dry gin to one part dry Vermouth. Then the "tomorrow we die" was psychology led miiny people to the 15 to 1 AAartini and eventually to the point of eliminating the Vermouth altogether and drinking chilled gin which was called a AAartini only because it was served in a cocktail glass.

The comment came as Agriculture Secretary Earl L. Butz was telling Japanese officials that increased supplies of U.S. grains will be available this year because Soviet purchases have declined.

By RICHARD JOHNSEN JR. Executive Vice President Agricultural Council of California As predicted by all agricultural leaders, the summer of 1973 is the time and our state's rich agricultural' land is the scene for an all-out organizing war between two powerful national unions. What affect this controversy will have on food supplies and prices is a matter of conjecture but most agree that the outlook is bleak. If Only 'If The farmers of California's highly perishable grape and fruit crops, as well as tomatoes, lettuce and other vegetables, are feeling the wrath of labor's aggressive organizing efforts. The press is full of reports on conflicts between rival unions and with local peace officers.

Interestingly, however, in most cases the farm workers are still diligently working, harvesting the crops while union pickets demonstrate and counter- demonstrate. In a few areas workers have been kept from the fields and food products have rotted unharvested. All of us have 20-20 but unfortunately it does not do us much good. If the voters had passed the labor relations proposition on last year's ballot, the farm workers would today have a legitimate means of holding secret ballot elections. If the California Legislature or the U.S.

Congress had passed fair farm labor legislation we have rules under which to operate. If agricultural leaders had, years ago, been willing to come under general labor lawSr the mechanism to attack the union jurisdictional dispute would be available. "If" is such a big word and, unfortunately, is only as valuable as our hindsight. Those who want a logical, fair way by which to resolve legitimate disputes- between workers and employers in agriculture are frustrated by the inability to get general understanding of the issues involved in the current union vs. FREEZE-DRIED a DEHYDRATED QUALITY FOODS FOR STORAGE- CAMPING STORAGE DAILY USE NOLAN AND ANN SHUMWAY 4)0 ELLEN UIN REDWOOD VALLEY, CALIFORNIA BS470 (707) 48S-BIB3 OR 402-2288 At Furniture from the Largest and Finest Selection of Sofas and Love Seats in the County!
