',
to pioneero, OSU scholar says
The closest thing to the
pioneer spirit in Oregon today
may be that of small farmers,
says an Oregon State Unlver-:
j;Vlty scientist who specializes
In the study of people and their -
cultures. .. "
" The researcher, OSU anth-
.ropologigt Johrt A. Young, said
he has that Impression ftfter
V many hours studying the lives
Vof 44 residents of rural Polk
V County as part of a project to '
assess the resources, . needs
and goals of small-scale
farmers., '
"Most of them aren't the
counterculture types people
seem to think," said Young.
"It's more of a mainstream,
Ail-American value, system
they have.. .a work ethic, ft"
frontier ethic. Almost all of.
those we interviewed grew up '
on farm and value their'
v.; independence-self -sufficien-
f cy-above all. Many of them
went back to farming alter a
number of years in other
occupations."
Young and graduate re--searcher
Peter Caday, who :
recently published a report on
their ' work, went to Polk
County in the summer of 1978
part of a five-state study
coordinated by the Western
Rural Development Center, a
federally funded regional or
gan! tation based at OSU.
When selecting persons to
study, the researchers rea- -soned
that part-time farmers
with relatively high nonfarm
incomes (such as doctors and
lawyers) would not be as
likely to suffer acutely from
farming difflculities. ' They .
decided to focus their , study
Only on persons with nonfarm
Incomes below $20,000 a year
and gross farm product sales

. Then they set about criss
crossing the Coast Range hills
and Willamette Valley flat
. lands of Poik County, west of
Salem, to sample small farm
ers' ideas.
"The question of what is a
small farmer has been kicked
around a lot in Oregon and just
about every state," said
Young, recalling his three
months of interviewing. "I
would define a small-scale
fanner in Polk County not by
any demographic attributes
but by how he goes about
it his goals, his strategies."
"Money Is important, of
course," he said. "But most of
those we interviewed were
helping support themselves
.with outside jobs. They had
$10,000 or $12,000 in outside ,
'income. They farmed for the
way of life."
Young said four general
types of small-scale farmers
emerged from an analysis of
questionnaires filled out by
the 44 farmers:
-Part-time farm operators
with a relatively low time
commitment to farm work
and heavy reliance on non
farm incomes!
-Persons whose strategies
resemble those of large-scale
farmers.
-Alternative farmers who
are practicing organic and
other nonconventional ways of
farming.
Retirees and older persons
restricted in their capacity to
: farm commercially and - to
support themselves by work
ing off the farm. .rf .
How did the 44 see their
future?
Young said about three
fourths thought opportunities
for small farmers would
decrease. They cited obstacles
Buch as an intrusion on their
land base caused by zoning
laws and rising property
taxes, low and widely fluctua
ting agricultural prices, prob
lems with weeds and pests,
unforeseen injuries or health
problems and public agencies
they think are "at cross-purposes
or over-regulating." '
In their report. Young and
Caday suggest assistance pro-
grams for small-scale farm
ers include goals such as
re-examining zoning ordinan
ces; developing low -cost tech
nology and farming methods
such as alternative energy
systems; and identifying lab
or intensive, high quality
products smell farmers could

Gasoline
consumption
seen down
Oregon Department of
Energy preliminary figures
for April 1980 indicate that
gasoline consumption in Ore
gon tumbled for the 13th
consecutive month with a
decline of about 6 percent or
approximately 6.9 million gal
lons from consumption in
April 1979.
This drop is of significance
because it was in April 1979
that Oregonians started to cut
down their gasoline consump
tion in response to the Iranian
crisis.
In Portland and Medford,
gasoline prices have dropped
.5 to three cents a gallon for
regular, unleaded and prem
ium. Prices remained relativ
ely stable in Astoria and rose
an average of one cent a
gallon in Pendleton.
Gasoline prices for major
brand regular in Portland
have increased 72 percent
between January 1979 and
May 1980. Average monthly
increases during this period
have been 3.2 percent.
Oregon gasohol consists of a
mixture of 90 percent gasoline
and 10 percent ethanol or
methanol (ethanol being the
most common). There are 19
retail outlets selling gasohol,
primarily in the Portland
metropolitan area. The aver
age price of unleaded gasohol
is $1 28 a gallon.
