Farmer Must Like Job, Asserts Award Winner Thought Repeated This thought was repeated by other speakers and panel mem bers as. they discussed throughout a day-long program "What Farmy ers Need in a Practical Farm Program;" "How to. Develop Better Public Relations for Agriculture" and "Our Investment in Human Resources." While pointing out their view points of a "Practical Farm Program," Henry Hendrickien, who, represented the Oregon State Grange, Harley Libby of the Oregon-Washington Farmers Union, i and Cornelius Bateson, farm er-legislator, agreed that such phases as "subsidies, surpluses, commodity by comirudity -approach, multiple' price systems, marketings agreements, cost-price squeeze" have convinced tee general public that anything connect ed with "agriculture is something evil. "Many believe thatiarmers are a group of people engaged in a business' whose aim in life is to get something for nothing at the expense ot the American taxpay Hendnckson said. "Of course we farmers who are trying to de velop a program of equality for the American farmer, know this isn't so." Proud of Occupation Libby said he was proud of being a farmer, but realized he must be a realist and "make enough money to stay in busi ness." He said he believes that it is imperative "that we have a farm program that actually re duces mige surpluses- to a rea sonable public security basis." He added: "I'm thoroughly out of patience with having the bene fits of efficiency and over-capital ization being absorbed by the packers and jobbers, and the farmer still being low "man on the totem pole price-wise." Bateson, who emphasized the need of producer-farmer com mittees empowered to set quotas and regulate production, said "this regulation is necessary to obtain an essential living price lor commodities." He concluded, "Marketing methods must be im proved with a better voice for producers."

In 1939, he pumped his first water from the Abiqua for cannery crops. Down through the years he has continued to grow some cannery crops, and is considering putting in sweet corn this year, but hasn't definitely de cided, he said.

Now irrigation is also used for pastures. In his conservation projects he has installed over 8,000 feet of tile, rebuilt all of his open ditches, developed about three acres of grass waterways, and con structed one pond for irrigation Thirteen acres of his land were at one time flood channels and gullies. By clearing, leveling and rebuilding the channels, he has reclaimed this land so that he can farm it either as pasture or as row crops.
