Tootell, governor of the Farm Credit Administration in Washington, D. C. keynoted the conference with his talk on "Fifty Years of Cooperative Credit. Reviewing the 50-year history of The Federal Land Bank of Spokane, Fred A. Knutsen, pres ident, told the group that the bank faced a host of economic problems during its first half century of service to northwest agriculture and today is in the strongest and soundest financial position of its history. Looking into the future. Dr. L. L. Boger, chairman. Depart ment of Agricultural Economics, Michigan State University. East Lansing, said the farmer in the year of 2016 would likely have a gross income of around $150, 000 to $200,000 per year but that production expenses will amount to about 80 percent of this. The Michigan economist predicted machinery will replace men and the machinery invest ment would rise accordingly. In 1965, farm machinery accounted for 32 percent of the farmers investment: by the year 2017 he predicted a rise to at least 45 percent Dr. Boger said the typical farm 50 years from now will be double the size of to day's typical commercial farm.

Pacific Supply Cooperative wa founded . . . out of necessity. Stated purpose was "to provide unity of effort In buying." In those depression days, Northwest farmers were "manufacturers" of food and fibre but, as individuals, they lacked the buying muscle any industrial manufacturer had to have to survive. Pacific Supply gives over 100,000 Northwest growers the combined purchasing power needed to keep the cost of production supplies down on the farm, at levels reasonable enough to make a profit and stay in business. The seed of Pacific's original objective has grown in purpose, culti vated and fertilized by these policies all aimed at serving tha expanding needs of Northwest farmers: WITH HONEST PRICING insuring the same fair price to any buyer of the same quantity and service, retaining a reasonable profit for Pacific cooperatives to expand future services to farmers. WITH HIGHEST LEVEL OF SERVICE, both routine and emer gency, to give Northwest farmers the kind of technical assistance and grow-how only a farmer-dedicated business like Pacific can provide. WITH TIMELY AVAILABILITY of refined fuels, chemicals and fertiliser products delivered to Northwest farmers when and where they need them. WITH ASSURED QUALITY of every product that bears the ClrcU i P emblem, the sure sign for farmers. ' WITH AGRICULTURAL RESEARCH to help Northwest farmers meet tomorrow's demands for technological advances In agricultural production. WITH CREDIT AND MANAGEMENT SERVICE for farmers and associations to help Northwest growers succeed as agri-businessmen. As we better serve the needs of Northwest agriculture, w better serve all mankind. "Wa believe that the agricultural industry, whioh can ba victimised by nature, should not be plagued by problem! over which man has a degree ot control namely service, price and availability ot necessary supplies.
