By NELS ANDERSON" Becker, farm management spec ialist from Oregon State college met with eight farmers to work out records for the management study. Those cooperating farm ers will keep a record of hours spent on each of their operations as well as labor and custom work. With these records cost figures will be determined at the end of the 1959 crop year. If these ranchers wish, a second year management study will be carried out to make the study more worthwhile. Those farmers who represent many of the com munities of the county that will be cooperators In the manage ment study are Harold Snider, Robert Peterson, Louis Carlson, and David Baker, lone; Kenneth Turner, and Melvln Moyer, Hepp ner: John Graves, Hardman and Paul Tews, Echo.

Jy Joe Marsh Whitey "Auto" Not Sell Now Folks thought it wag a big joke when Whitey Fisher who owns a chicken farm up on Murphy Hill bought an old taxicab. "Bought it mainly to haul eggs," Whitey told me. "Take out the rear seat and there's as much room as a truck. Put it back, and I can take all the kids on the Hill to school. "In warm weather," he con tinued, "I can slide back the roof and get sunshine. And when I go hunting, I'll wind up the glass partition and the dogs can't lick the back of my neck!" From where I sit, things aren't always what they are at first glance. "More than meets the eye" is often true whether you're talking about Whitey's "cab," or a new neighbor down the street. Give things a chance to be proved . . . give every man a chance to be heard. Sit down over a glass of beer or butter milk and get to know each other.
