HONORS PLANNED FAMILIES ON CENT Orecon farms have v.,.n in thp same family 100 years or more? Who are the fam ilies. Where are the farms? What county has the most 100-year- old farm famines: No one knows the answers now, but they should come to light in a brand new Century Farm program just inaugurated by the Oregon Historical Soc iety and the State Department of Agriculture. Limbering up for Oregon's centennial year and a continuing program to honor families who have worked the same land for 100 years or more, the first Century Farm families will be proclaimed at a colorful cere mony at the 1958 state fair in Salem. "Agriculture is Oregon's oldest basic industry. The approach of the state's 100th anniversary Is a fitting time to start paying tribute to those who have stayed with the soil generation after generation," Directors Thomas Vaughan of the society and Ro- r - VOTE FOR j DELMER j BUSCHKE Republican Candidate 4 i For COUNTY ASSESSOR Life Long Morrow county Resident Pd.

They expressed the hope that every farm family entitled to this honor will seek it. Any farm family in Morrow county who can prove to county judge Oscar Peterson that the land now farmed has been In the family since 1858 or earlier will qualify for this honor. A farm for the Century desig nation will follow the U S Cen sus of Agriculture definition : Three acres or more of land pro ducing agricultural products worth $150 or more each year. A Century Farm will be one owned continuously since the calendar year 1858 or earlier In the same family. It may have passed from the original owner to brothers and sisters or sons and daughters and through them to children's children or adopted children. The present owner may be llv ine on the farm and operating it, or he or she may be managing it from a town residence. The Historical Society will award a handsome document conveying proof of the century status to each farm family qual ifvine. In cases of joint owner ship, all families concerned will be thus honored. The document will be present ed by the governor in the Cent ury Farm ceremonies at the state fair. Each award will contain five official signatures: those of the governor of Oregon, the dir ectors of the Oregon Historical Society and the State Depart ment of Agriculture, the chair man of the state fair commiss ion and the county judge. In addition to meeting the size and 100-year requirements, how does a farm family qualify lor this honor? The only other thing necessary is for the family to submit an affidavit or other certification of continuous ownership to the county judge of the county in which the land lies. To qualify in 1958, this must be done on or before July 20. The county judge will accept or reject the claim and submit his decision to the sponsoring groups. really that tired," Dr J Hudson Ballard, psychologist, advised his audience at the Salem C of C Monday, when many state of ficials and state workers were attracted to hear the renowned speaker. "The average person has great reserves of energy that he never uses. Man doesn't use more than 50 per cent of his potential," he explained. We know very little about fatigue and most fatigue he said originates to a degree in our mind and according to our mental attitude. 'The anemic person has just as much reserve as the man who vibrates with energy. It is the ability to release this energy at will, that man lacks." He cited several Instances, where under special stress, people performed above-normal feats of strength and physical endurance. Dr Ballard indicated that men can learn to release reserve en ergies through determination, that is will power, inspiration, expectation and a unified per sonality free from mental con flicts. To these he adds faith. Faith is the most important toward ob taining proper mental attitude, he said.

The word is that most candi dates are getting little financial support from previous sources. A self-appointed political press agent tells this on himself. "I went to my friend who is runn ing for governor with a 'tre mendous idea' and what do I get? A broadcast," " We don't have the money." Then In an aside whisper he said, "We're accepting even $5 donations." The heavy donaters of the past may have concluded they've got it and there's nothing more they want.
