FFA Convention
•‘If there is one way to
demonstrate to our young
people the necessity for or
der and a natural pro
gression of events, it is
through contests like this.”
Floyd Hawkins, 3rd vice-
president of the Oregon Farm
Bureau Federation, congra
tulated the winners of the
State F FA Parliamentary
Procedure competition Tues
day night in Ontario upon
presentation of the trophy
to the entry from Silverton
High School. Second place
went to Canby and third to
the team from Nyssa High
School.
‘‘Parliamentary procedure
illustrates how all human so
cieties, from the highest
level of government to the
neighborhood club, assures
every man, woman or child
a voice in their decisions,”
Hawkins said.
"Only through this orderly
conduct of our affairs can we

as a people remain free of
tyranny in any of its many
forms-internal or external.
Only
through the lesson
taught by these exercises
in citizenship to such groups
as the Future Farmers of
America can we of this ge
neration feel that some of
what we pass on to succeed
ing generations has mean
ing," he concluded.
Hawkins, a Vale rancher,
told the audience that his
being present Tuesdaj to
present the awards was just
one instance where State
Farm Bureaus throughout the
United States work hand in
hand with farm youth or
ganizations.
He promised the contes
tants that, if they drove
tractors as well as they con
ducted their business, he
would see them at the Oregon
State Fair during the annual
Oregon Farm Bureau-FFA
tractor driving championship.
riers is SAIF, the State
Accident Insurance Fund,
which insures some 40.000
Oregon
employers.
Don
Clark, SAIF’s Baker Dis
trict Office Manager, is con
cerned that area employers
are unaware of this increase
or its April 1 effective date.
"Many employers, es
pecially the political subdi
visions, will need to con
sider this change when re
viewing their 1974-75 bud
gets,”
he said.
"When
you’re dealing with a large
number of employes within
tight budget restrictions,
even an increase of a few
cents a day can really make
a difference.”
Clark said SAIF is per
sonally contacting as many
of its policyholders as pos
sible and will soon be send
ing notices to all 40,000 of
them.

SEEDLLNG TREES
FOR
PLANTING
Oregon rural residents
who need seedling trees to
plant for Christmas tree
production, or wind breaks
have a low cost source of
the little trees through the
Oregon State Department of
Forestry. Each year the de
partment grows millions of
the little trees that are dis
tributed throughout the state
to help keep Oregon green.
residents
Malheur county
have been taking advantage
of the program for many
years.
Many of the trees
were planted as wind breaks
in this area, years ago dur
ing the development of the
new lands under the Vale and
Owyhee irrigation projects.
Blowing dust and wind ero
sion were quite a problem
then
Most of the seedlings from
the state nursery are less
than a foot long and come in
bundles of 50 trees. Cost of
the trees ranges from $3.50
to $6.00 for 50 seedlings de
pending on the species you
select.
Early spring is the best
time to set out the young
trees,
However,
orders
should be placed as soon as
possible to insure that your
request is taken care of as
the nursery usually exhausts
its supply during the early
spring period. You can or
der now and the nursery will
ship the trees on the date
you specify.

Growers Receive
Second Payment
OGDEN, UTAH - Continu
ing strong prices for sugar
during February and March
have resulted in The Amal
gamated Sugar Company ma
king a second 1974 supple
mental payment to its con
tracted growers throughout
Idaho, Oregon, and Utah for
beets grown in 1973.
Growers are now recei
ving checks amounting to
$2.00 per ton for last year’s
beets.
This current payment is
being made less than six
weeks after the sugar com
pany made its first supple
mental payment of $2.00 per
ton to contracted growers for
1973 sugarbeets. Combined,
these two supplemental pay
ments have given contracted
growers over $10 million,
in addition to the company's
initial 1973 beet payment of
$50 million.
