Out, crystal
ball! It's in
the cards
HOW TIME FLIES! Here it
is already 1964. Yet we
can remember back to 1939 as
if it were yesterday. Well can
we recall the scores of young
sters who joined this Company
in the year of the World's Fair.
We couldn't forget them if we
tried, in fact, for they are our
key men our "bosses."
Now we're not trying to in
fringe on Madam Tea-Leaves,
the seeress, and her crystal ball.
No crystal ball is needed to
make sure where, after 25 years,
the unlimited opportunity for
advancement which is basic pol
icy with this Company will land
members of our entering class
of '39.
It would be simpler to tell
you that of the 180 employees
who joined this Company 25
years ago, ill have bettered
themselves. One is assistant
general sales manager. Another
is captain of a tanker. Five are
branch managers. Thirty-nine
have advanced to important ex
ecutive posts.
We speak con6dently about
1964 solely to point the fact
that this year's newcomers
the clerks, "roustabouts," office
boys can count on a future
wherein merit means promo
tion. They will be the bosses of
25 years hence. And equally
important years will have be
come no handicap. They'll still
be on theix way up.
Standard Oil Company
of California
marketed throughout the United
States and in foreign countries,
Mr. Hoover said. He himself
has been producing and market
ing winter blue grass seed for
several years, having developed
the grass alter discovering a
patch of volunteer growth.
Valley Well Suited
The Rogue river valley Is
peculiarly adapted to the pro
duction of grass seeds, afford-
ng better quality and a higher
yield than elsewhere," Mr.
Hoover declared in predicting
the production of grass seed as
new principal business of
southern Oregon. "So far
grass is concerned, the Rogue
River valley offers more oppor
tunities than any other section
of the United States."
Part of the 1,000-acre nursery
is now being prepared for the
planting of grass, Mr. Hoover re
lated. A nurse crop will be put
in and about 300 acres will be
planted this fall to winter blue
grass. In March about 500 acres
will be planted to ladino and
lotus and next autumn the en
tire acreage will be seeded to
the winter blue grass, he stated.
Ladino and lotus will continue
to be planted in season to form
a combination crop, better re
sults and year-around produc
tion being procured by this pro
cedure, he explained.
Grazing goes hand-in-hand
with the production of grass
seed and later cattle will be
brought in to pasture on the
land, Mr. Hoover related. Regis
tered Herefords will be brought
from Dr. Poston's cattle ranches,
he added.
Story Interested Doctor
Dr. Poston became interested
in winter blue grass a few years
ago after reading about the pro
duct, its development by Mr
Hoover and its varied uses in an
article written for Country Gen
tleman by Mrs. Adeline B.
Hinck, Medford resident. The
surgeon made numerous trips to
Medford and conducted a thor
ough investigation of winter blue
grass possibilities and of the
Hoover methods of production
Winter blue grass is distantly
related to the famed blue grass
of Kentucky, though Mr. Hoover
asserts the southern Oregon
product is superior to the Dixie
article. It does not, however,
compete in any way with the
Kentucky grass as it grows in
the winter whereas the blue
grass of the south is a summer
product. In fact winter produc
tion is hailed as one of the im
portant values of the southern
Oregon blue grass, for through
it year-around pasturage is pos
sible. Other special qualities are
claimed for the winter blue
grass.
