AngeL was brought to the Silverton hospital Thursday badly pm- pryer ,nd wai the first operator of a single unit board in Perkins drug store, receiving a salary of $12 per month. A few years later th switchboard was moved into the hChase Variety store, Miss Guthrie having become Mrs. Chase. In 1909 the telephone company leased part of the E. H. Hosner building an dins tailed the switch' board which has done duty for more than 30 years. Since 1910 J. E. Winegar has owned th building. Meantime, the Willam ette Telephone company absorbed the little Independent system, and in 1830 Pacific Telephone and Telegraph officially took it over. Mrs. Emma Perkins was first operator of the switchboard so long in use here. Blanche Sloan was her assistant Mrs. Quisen- berry succeeded them, her salary reaching $30 per month. At first most of the phones were In farm homes, but by 1910 many town customers had phones installed. In the new dial system there are approximately 285 phones. In the old system there were ap proximately 270. All the farmer phones located in the proposed army cantonment area have been connected with Independence to avoid the labor and expense of installation, with eventual later removal of dial phones should the eantnnment be authorized. To Farm Machinery Needs Should Be Anticipated , , Faced , with a possible shortage of farm machinery for next year, and inability to get prompt de livery of repairs, Oregon farmers are being advised by Robert Tay lor, Adams, 'chairman of the state agricultural defense board to make plans now , to foresee their 1942 equipment requirementsJ '. The days when a grower, can rush to town and buy a new piece of equipment, : or even, ' get - the right replacement part on a mo ment's notice, are probably over for the. duration of the emerg ency," says Taylor. On the other hand, the government is making every effort to see that . needed farm machinery and repairs are provided for as adequately as pos sible tnrough favorable priorities. A statewide equipment survey recently conducted - by county USDA defense boards shows that Oregon farmers expect to need more man the usual amount of farm machinery next year, both because of the farm labor short age and the Increased production under the "food for freedom" pro gram. Ine big expansion of cover crop seeds, the need for more feed crops to supply the needed increases in pork, dairy, poultry and beef products, and the gen eral farm labor problems are all factors in the indicated need for more equipment" the defense board chairman said. The results of the machinery survey will be used to establish new priority ratings for materials to manufacture new equipment classed as absolutely necessary. These priorities, the chairman said, are designed to maintain the 1 L---' TOD AVI , wrote 1V . I I ' 'rrtrr zT of mac0- i l r- - '- -lrr-.'' S .It S3 .. w . , '- 3 .
