On« of the drainage ditches which h a s W o w h e rtiiity
and life to soil given up aa hopeleaa by Shively's j
pooae neighbor«. Her« Shively (atand ing) explains
benefits of the ditch to Fre d E. 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
