OREGON STATE CHAMBER OF
COMMERCE
Portland, Oregon
April 14. 1928.
Springfield News
Dear Mr. Maxey:
Your editorial “Which Is the Cart
and Which Is the Horse7” asks a very
fundamental qneation. In your edi
torial you suggest that I consult the
Lane County Agricultural Outlook
Conference.
Of course, I hnve already done this
and had before 1 made any sugges
tions regarding Iatne County agricul
ture. There are two major agricul
tural activities that the Oregon State
Chamber of Commerce are recent
mending and I believe that they can
do so safely without danger of cam-
bating the over-production theory,
and 1 believe It Is largely a theory.
You will agree with mie, I am sure,
thnt all wealth contes from production
and thnt front the beginning of time
cgrlcultural production has been in
the vanguard. One might almost call
It the divine plan. Industrial develop
ment can only develop after the soil
has produced to feed and clothe our
people.
You are right In your concluaions
that we must develop profitable
markets and that a balanced agri
cultural and Industrial growth mu.t
go hand In hand. Lane County can
well afford to develop the dairy In
dustry. You could Increase your cow
population at lea.t flvei tim e, and
could increase your production per
cow at least double without .any
danger of over-production. You oould
have an annual dairy prdueta Income
of at least five million a year In Lane
County and I aubmit to you that It Is
a sound devolopmonL
Records show that daring the re-
cent agricultural deflation that suc
cessful dairy counties have suffered
less than any other system of farming
and that land values have been least
effected in dairy sections. You will
also agree with me that Lane County
offers splendid advantages for the
dairy business.
It is my opinion that farm relief
agitation has ruined the morale of
more farmers, driven their children
to the etties, and depreciated land
values more than any other one thing.
It hus frightened capital away from
farm land loans and investment, and
It has made many farmers feel sorry
for themselves. W no can complain
today about the price of wool, about
the price of cows, about the price ot
iambs, and dairy products or even
about the prtoe of hogs? Who can
complain seriously about the price of
oats and wheat? What possible good
can come out of a man knocking his
own business and what possible good
can come out of anyone finding fault
with their major Industry?
Lane County's Investment In the
agricultural industry is 236.771.244 ac
cording to the latest farm census.
Fifty-nine per cent of this according
to this census is free front Incumb
rance and forty-one per cent Is mort
gaged for thirty-three per cent of Its
value.
It think that you will agree with me
that this Is is a business on a pretty
sound basis. Industrial development
must come but it must follow agri
cultural development In the Pacific
Northwest, the same as It followed
agricultural development over the Al
legheny Mountains Into the fertile
valley« of the Ohio and the M ississi
ppi.
