I. NIALON I Table Rock - Last Tuesday we attended a luncheon for lTarmAra fnr ICennedV at the Jackson hotel in Medford, where we met some dozen farmers and Orchard men, and one or two lady farmers. ni-nree T.oftin. Texas Demo crat, and a farmer in the Beagle district, was elected chairman of the group and rolled on members seated around the table to express themselves as to conditions in 4hAir tnrmintt operation, and if they believed that a change in the national administration would be beneficial to them. Tha inhlf. nuiz brOUfftlt forth many answers, such as "the present administration has kept the price of living going up, and the Income of those who produce the food and fiber steadily going down." Tf urna nnlnted out that the much publicized farm sur oluses would last only a few months at most should we famine or the farmers should quit producing and we kept consuming food. The sub sidies or price supports given f farmer according to One speaker amount to only one fifth of the total given oy we nnvornmont. The oresent farm plan has caused relations be tween farmers and city folks to be strained, one farmer noted. e It seemed to be the opin ion of those present that the) Democratic party had al ways been mora consider ate of farmers, and Kennedy If elected would follow along this line, but in auc tion of Nixon would ba the continuing of the same old stuff of driving the firm er! off the farm. Soma peo ple, including Esia Benson, don'i seem to know how im portant the farming busi ness is. . ' e Vriii nan Vuiv manv things out of stores, but where would you get a pound loaf of bread. (The farmers wheat cost about three cents of the thirty cents nau fa 111 .Trie Cowlev. the Mail Tribune farm editor was present, look for a xurui er account In his farm page of Tuesdays paper. Ed Taylor was also present, and became .nthucoH that he had to donate four biU to the city of Medford for leaving nis car tnn innri nnnr a nnnirrv meter. Since getting instructions from our, new dobs to oe. uu tk. lnnlrnnt fnr the unusual. we thought this skunk story lgnt quality. - ,t Ona day recently, Mr. and Mrs. K. S. Richardson started on a trip to Port land. Going north on our speedway thay saw and melled iha remains of a kunk. then another, and another, until thay counted 13 four lagged skunks that had bean flattened by the fait moving wheals of out traffic. '. Another unusual happening back some 50 years ago, was when a neighbor, William By rum who came from ' the South, started from here and got as far as the Forest Acres subdivision with team and buggy on a shopping trip to town. A black cat ran across the road, causing him to turn the team around and return home, believing It would be bad luck to continue. When talking with him about It, we tried to convince him there was nothing to this superslt tlon. He said maybe so, but "dad blanmed if I am going to take any chances." The hungry looking coyote that Kirby Tant trapped last Monday passed less than 10 feet from our house the night before, according to foot prints loft In the road near the house. A nice letter from Bob W nil or our old boss, and writer of the "Out on the limb" column, states that he has a position with the Ore gonian, in Portland, and that he misses the Mail Tribune crew and other Medford ivlonrie Wp learned through the grapevine, one big reason for Bob's going to roruana nisi in take lessons In French, Best wishes, Bob, hope you get along with your rrencn. What a change and wal coma relief the World Serial Editorial Contents-October 16th I6lk r MAIL and great debates hara bean from the dribble- we have been having about the sum mit and world affairs. ' y .. -Klrby Tant, the government trapper, reports that his Mon day morning catch in this com munity was three coyotes, one fox, and a odorized skunk. Other news he gave us was that some 52 turkeys were killed by dogs recently at the John Byrne's farm in Apple gate. Tant recently bet our neighbor lady one dollar that he would have a coyote in a trap set where the lady told him a coyote visited every morning. The next morning he found a dog in the trap. The Antioch Cemetery as sociation are deeply grateful to Hal Davis of Medford, who hauled and spread some 10 yards of crushed granite on the driveway from the -highway through the cemetery. Quite a little anxiety has developed among farmers by the report making the rounds that hereafter the assessed price value of farm lands will be based per acre on sub division selling prices. Just as we started writing this, Ray rioadley, deputy assessor, drove In. This is a mistake. They do not assess land that you are farming on a sub division basis, unless you are gelling it for home sites, and. then not until 60 per cent, of the land has been sold, ac cording to Hoadley, School Enrollments Up in Central Point Central Polnt-The office Of District 6 Superintendent Charles Meyer reports enroll ment in the Central Point schools shows an increase over previous years.
