Week By James Allen George Washington's birthday last Sunday meant much to all of us, but It has a special sig nificance to the Future Farmers of America, who, honor Washington as sort of a patron saint. The ties that bind the Future Farmers to the memory of Washington are close, and they schedule the week of his birthday each year as National F. F. A. week. This week 350 thousand Future Farmers of America located in every state of the union, Ha waii, and Puento Rico, rededicated themselves to the purposes of their organization. The organi zation is restricted to students of vocational agri culture, and provides for a closely-knit organiza tion of students who have common interests. It is the largest "farm" boy" organization in the world. There are 8,500 local high school chapiters active at the present time. We've read of George Washington's Revolu tionary War exploits In the history books and we know that his leadership won him the unanimous approval as first President of the United States, in the face of thirteen colonies that differed widely in their political views, but Washington's leader ship goes farther than that. He was a farmer and a good one. Washington as a great farmer is an angle that a lot of history books have overlooked, but many recognize him as America's first scientific farmer. He experimented to find how much fertilizer he needed to get the best crops. Ih was one of th first to inaugurate a rotation system of cropping to save the soil. By cartful seed selection he de veloped a new strain of wheat that proved to be better than any that was available before that time. He improved his sheep so that they .pro duced an average of five and one-fourth pounds of wool a year, where his neighbors seldom clip ped two pounds. The Future Farmers of America use the ex ample of George Washington in the ritual for formal openings of F. F. A. meetings. The treas urer is stationed at the picture of Washington be cause, as he states it: "I keep records of receipts and disbursements just as Washington kept his farm accounts carefully and accurately. I en courage thrift among members and strive to build up our financial standing through saving and in vestments. George Washington was better able to serve his country because he was financially inde pendent." Washington made a statement that means much to every future farmer. He said: "Nothing but harmony, honesty, and industry, are neces sary to make us a great and happy people." A part of the F. F, A. Creed states: "I believe in being happy myself and playing square with those whose happiness depends upon me." Those two simple expressions have much in common, and can serve as examples for all of us to follow in our everyday thoughts and' actions.

Nys, Attorney Ileppner, Oregon 50-2s Like always, the eld law of supply and demand will dictate much of the prices received by 'farmers in 1953. Changes in na tional supplies were the cause ; for the 12 percent decline in the prices at the end of 19.)Z, com Spared to a year earlier. Dr. Burton Wood, Head, Depart Iment of Agricultural Economics, .Oregon State College, speaking 'at the annual meeting of the Boardman Soil Conservation Dis trict, recently, pointed out that farmers will need, more than ever before, to watch their farm operations as the spread between costs and farm prices are narrow ing each month. He showed that where farm prices dropped 12 percent, nationally; farm costs dropped but 1 percent last year. Summing up his talk he pointed out that the day of the "hick country farmer" is gone forever. Costs of getting into farming have risen until where it now takes from 13 to 15 thousand dol lars to provide a job in industry, twice that much is needed in agri culture.
