Farmers Hold Mass
Meeting In Caldwell

A cross section of farm sentiment
on such subjects as agricultural re-
search at experiment stations, soil
conservation, forest policy, market
ing programs, rural health facilities
and education was reflected here,
Friday, when a mass meeting Of
farmers was held at the courthouse.
Sponsored by the various farm
agencies, County Agent Floyd Hend-
erson said that 26 farmers repre-
sented various sections of the coun-
ty.
At this meeting, the farmers were
asked to express their sentiments
toward a new national farm policy
proposed by the Secretary of Agri-
culture Clinton P. Anderson.
Henderson said, that strangely
enough, Noble county farmers fa-
vored a parity but not subsidy.
Similar meetings are being held
throughout the nation and the And
erson farm policy, after alterations
suggested by farmers, will be the
basis of a farm program to be pre-
sented to Congress.
