Farmer Discusses Oakley Valley

1t is gratifying to note that as a
whole there was marked improve
ment in 1928 over 1922 in general
farming conditions, manifested in
better prices for many farm pro-
ducts, slightly lessened costs of pro-
duction and an excellent crop year.
In the meantime we farmers in
and around oakley valley should
rot forget that other farmers as well
as we have their troubles and that
there are some things to set down
On the credit side of the ledger. I
am now speaking more particularly
of the all-around small farmers like
we have in our locality; his automo
bile, huse rent and fuel have not adj
vanced, as with other classes. We
have or should have seventy-five per
cent of our living from our Trans at
first cost While apparently we are
making but little money we are liv-
ing well. 1t is true we are secluded
from the world, in a way so to
speak, but we are free from cy-
clones, earthquakes and pestilences
OF nearly every kind, we have plenty
of fress cir to breathe and crystal
streams flowing down from the
snow-clad peaks filled with live
trout-which afford re-
creation for the pleasure seeker.

The church, the grange. the tele-

world, never has there been time
when the farmer apparently had
more active friends in congress than

attempting to relieve this distress is
that the farmer and his friends can
not agree among themselves as to
