This is not dated, but must have come out more than 40 years ago, "National prominence has been gained by farmers of the Beagle and Sams Valley districts as the result of a story published a short time ago in the Mail Tribune. The item, submitted by R. E, Nealon, regular correspond ent, told of the plan adopted by the farmers where hay hands were paid for their labor in hay. The story was sent out over the Associated Press wires, appeared on the front page of the Portland Oregonian, and in nu merous newspapers of the nation, and today has made its way into the editorial columns of Collier's magazine, national weekly, published at Springfield, Ohio. The magazine report reads: 'Up in Sams Valley and Beagle, farming districts of Oregon, they're having a tot of experience with this back to fundamentals business the politicians are talking so much about. Field hands whose normal pay should be two dollars a day, while haying, are taking their wages in hay at six dollars a ton. All they have to do then is find out what to do with the hay." This hay story is similar to one concerning the Wil lamette valley when Grover Cleveland was president. Farm hands were needed to harvest the crop of wheat, but farmers were short of money, so agreed to pay wages in wheat, at so much per bushel, G.P.H,, a man who worked there for wheat and later resided here, told us that he got a bushel of wheat for a day's work, but had no transportation, so started out carrying his wheat to market, but found owing to the wheat surplus there was no market for it, so dumped half of it, and later all of it. For those who claim that supports cause the wheat surplus, we will note here that at that time supports weren't heard of. ' . , Double Stork Shower ' A double stork shower was given Tuesday, Jan, 22 at the home of Mrs. Ernest Smith, for Mrs. Elmer Ma- loney, and Mrs. Norman Mattson, with 20 ladies attend ing, . , , Several from here attended the funeral of Roy Car ley in Medford, Saturday. Mr. Carley lived for many years in Sams Valley, where he operated a farm, and . was prominent in grange and community affairs. ; Bill Duggan, builder of smog-proof homes in the land of many oaks, is coming this way with his construction and has two modern homes under construction near the Wheeler farm, a two and a three-bedroom home. There has been a noticeable shortage of jack rabbits locally for some time, but Charley Hoover says there are a good many .in some parts of the valley. He says they come out to feed at night. We wonder what has happened to the screech owls who used to do their screeching 'at night. We remember one time grandmother, who came from Georgia and was a bit suspicious, thought a screeching owl near the house would cause bad luck. But grandmother had a remedy for it. She would put the fire shovel in the fire place and as soon as it got red hot, the screech owl would move to a cooler spot. Mr. Clifford says the shortage of jack rabbits is not caused by their getting crossed with other breeds as they don't go in for Integration. Farmers Don't Wsnt Loans As far as we know, farmers in this area do not care to borrow money to repair damage done by the recent flood waters. Personally, we feel that these lands that are subject to flood damage every few years should not be appraised for as much as similar land not in flooding area. So much of the land in the flooded area was severely damaged In the recent flood, with fences taken out and twisted up into balls of wire. Holes, some 4 feet deep, were dug out and sand was carried away and debris piled over cultivated land. These floods hap pen every few years and will continue until we get flood control through the completion of the plan A dam. Thought for the day The man that struts on his job will have no following.
