Joehnkc, faioj ‘* 1 repre sentative of tha F i rs t National Bank of Port! • d Neighbors shook their heads back in 1942 when Gaylord Shively bought his 125-acre farm in the Scappoose Drainage District. The soil was depleted, much of the land poorly drained, and the whole place infected w ith w eeds. The man who moved off when Shively took over had found it difficult to sus tain 16 cows on the 125-acre tract. Today Shively has 52 head of cattle, including 35 producing milk cows. The farm has become so productive that this year the Scappoose farmer has been able to market 1(H) tons of surplus hay. Newspaper stories and radio broadcasts have pointed to the Shively farm operation as an out standing i sample in agricultural di" elopment. In four years acres of wasteland have grown rich and profitable. Shively's success with land which hail been given up as useless is a tribute to modem, scientific farm ing methods. The first vear he worked his newly acquires) soil he had to buy 100 tons of hay and 50 tons of grain to feed the 40 head of cattle he had brought with him to the Scappoose farm. Neigh bors urged him either to cut down his herd or to give up entirely. Shively did neither. Instead h« applied to the government agricul tural corners ation program which is set up to provide half th« com in carrying out practice« to coo- serve and improve soil and water resources. The Columbia County AAACommittce, headed by Chair man W. C. Johnson of Mist, ap proved a program of soil building practices, drainage, pasture, and irrigation improvement for the farm and Shively went to work. In 1943 he launched his pro gram. First he turned under 15 acres of green manure crops and gave his ailing pasture a two-ton shot of phosphate. The following year he sweetened the sour soil with 18 tons of lime and tackled the drainage problem by construct ing 1700 feet of new drainage ditch. He continued both projects in 1945 by giving the soil 37 addi tional tons of lime and digging an other 3200 feet of drainage ditch. That same year he reorganized the farm's make-shift irrigation system, moving 4020 yards of dirt to construct a permanent lateral and installing 143 feet of 24-inch pipe. Irrigation was neceesary be cause, though the land was w ater- sogged in the Spring, it dried up too rapidly w hen the hot summer months came on. He rounded out hie 1945 program by seeding 20 scree of pasture lend to improved greases and by gening Hd of 15 acres of bull thistles twfore they had « chance to seed. Last veer Shively add*d another 40 tons of lime to sweeten the soil, seeded down another 20 acres o 4 pasture to better grasses and le gumes, and dug aooeh«r 1400 hm of drainage ditch. Although he has all ready trip led production on his revitalized acres, Shively feels that his de velopment program has just be gun. He had proved to himself and the community that a farm, properly worked, can grow richer and more productive with the passing years. The First National believes that there is a moral to be drawn from the story of Gaylord Shively . . . a moral that emphasizes the grass root initiative, the imagination and integrity which characterizes the Oregon farmer. The First National Bank of Portland ia interested vitally in soil conservation and reclamation and in all projects that advance the Intccesti of Oregon agricul ture. \\ hatever your needs in farm financing, you will find friendlv co-operation at the First Narionaf.
