each y e a r and w hat they say is
alw ays in te restin g for it gives a
peek in to the fu tu re «even if not
alw ays a full picture» and hum ans
are interested in th at.
T his y ea r the econom ists are
saying th a t tilings will be better,
that jieople will buy more, go into
( e b t fa r th e r , boost the gross n a
tional p ro d u ct, w ork le-s and te
cre ate more. T hat is, say the w i ' i
ones of the propliesying b re th re n ,
if w e do not succum b to inflation
and can som ew ay s»*ttle th e arm
race.
So far not one of the econom ists
noted lias said a good word for in
flation although som e |>ollticlans
like the idea of h u rry in g thing
along by th a t devi e.
H istory
teaches that it has alw ays Ix-en
d lsa ste ro u s to any nation, but po l
iticians do not all re id h istory.
Some note ti:»* p re se n t a rg u
m ent afoout the ra te of o u r grow th
w hich is sal . to be around three
per cent. If we w an t to grow
faste r we can save m ote m oney to
invest in the econom y. It is estl-
m at.si that folks w ould have to
Invest ten pen- nt in
order to
grow th ree percen t and it now a p
p e a rs that they woul
ra th e r
spend it.
E conom ists do not generally he
lieve that in terest rate s will go
dow n very soon.
In terest rates
an? h ig h er nearly every place
else and money goe w here it i
best t n a t e . so If we held ou r
in terest rate down m ore money
w ould go to E urope w hich i
boom ing and borrow ing and we
woul 1 have less to Invest .it home
and could th erefo re grow only at
a slow er rate.
We may have a hard lim e b?

T H E JO H N DAY
T h e re is activ ity dow n on th e
Jo h n Day riv e r as landow ners
a re hav in , th e ir flats leveled p re
parato! y to p attin g w ate r on n ex t
year it has been going on for
onn- ti uè w ithout cre atin g any
nore than c u rso ry in te rest. Bob
Boynton has a new 30 acre field
re id', and moia on th Jack G ib
son placx*.
Mike M u rth a has a
good siz e l field and S h elt B u r
le -, w ho has been w’o rk in g a t it
for years, is doing some m ore.
it is reliably estim ated th a t 213
re along th e Jo h n Day riv e r
are already u n d er irrig a tio n and
that 100 acres m ore could b? w a
tered from the riv e r w ith leveling
an 1 ditching. T h at estim ate, we
are sure, does n ot include th e
sm aller flats.
T he flats along the Jo h n T)ay
have long been one of th e co u n ty ’s
negletteli assets. Some of th em
contain 00 acres, enough for a big
irrig ated farm . We have alw ays
operated our cattle business along
the John Day back war.is, p u ttin g
a ttle onto the riv er In sp rin g
and 1- eding them d ry feed on top
in the w in ter. If feed w as grow n
along the riv e r cattle could w in
ter the ie m uch i»etter than on top
w here the w ind blows m uch cold
e r and the frost bites m uch d eep
er. It is nearly alw ays w arm along
the river, w arm er, anyw ay.
I' is probable th at th e new ly
leveled lan 1 will l»e p u t into p e r
m anent p astu re for cattle. How’-
ever, that is probably not the best
use for it. Any of the liottom s
along the Jo h n Day will grow fine
vegetali! s and fru it and w ill in a
lin e them ea rlie r than any p la te
in the n o rth w est. W hat is lacking
i- ti ansiMirtatlon and land ow n ers
an* (mil ling roads as well as Ihe.v
can so that will not long he so
m uch of a handicap.
Sherm an county now has m ore
money than ever iiefor»? in Ils SO
y ea r histo ry as an a g ric u ltu ral
em m unity. T here is alm ost no
la m i debt, w hereas land m o rt
gages w ere th e plague of the c o u n
ty for y ears. We now have th e
third iy.;neratlon on farm s and it
has benefitted
from the hard
w ork and econom y of its an ces
tors. It could well .«pen I som e
m oney to develop the Jo h n Day
valley so we could have a n o th e r
