day when grain was carried from
the grain separator to the granary,
have been discarded. Most of the
grain is currently moved in bulk
from the combine harvester in the
field, by wagon or by truck, and ele-
waited into the farm storage. On
those farms where relatively little
of the grain is fed to livestock, much
of it is moved directly from the
field to the country elevator and
thence to a terminal storage, with
the grower retaining ownership
through a warehouse receipt, held
privately or in conjunction with a
price support loah or purchase
agreement.
There may be more surprises in
store for the observer in the ma
chinery storage and farm shop. Not
all farms have separate storage
and repair shop, to be sure, but more
and more farmers are providing such
facilities to house and care for the
intricate machinery that has come
to be part of the modern farm.
If what one sees in the way of
power tools with Hydraulic lifts and
other attachments does not arouse
interest, certainly the investment
which they represent will do so.
1t is not uncommon to have as
much invested in, equipment alone as
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1954-12-23

was invested in the entire farm
when horse-drawn equipment was in
vogue. Such facilities as air pres
sure systems and farm welding
equipment, relatively unknown then,
have come to beAa necessary adjunct
to the care and maintenance Of the
rubber tired power driven farm equip
ment common on commercial farms
today.
The use of mechanized field equip
lnent has, admittedly, advanced much
more rapidly thhn that of mechan-
lied barn appliances, but an increas-
ing number of livestock farmers are
installing equipment designed to re-
duce the time and effort required to
feed and care for the animals. The
farm boy who migrated from the
farm twenty years ago will be
amazed at the ease with which
many arduous tasks about the barn
may be performed today with the
aid of such barn appliances as pipe
line mixers, barn cleaners, hay and
grain elevators and numerous other
devices.
These changes in farm lore, how
ever, have in no way diminished the
traditional spirit and enthusiasm that
has been associated with a family
Christmas on the farm over the
years. Moreover, the rewards Of
these changes have accrued to the
populace at large, as the nations
output of food and fiber has grown
along with the population even
though the number directly engaged
in producing it has diminished by
about one-third.
The Bluffton news. [volume] (Bluffton, Ohio) 1875-current, 1954-12-23


Those who are spending the
Christmas holiday in the country this
year viii note that many of the
sights Which were common to their
experience have all but disappeared
from the farm scene. The long rows
of corn shocks which formerly dotted
the snow-covered landscape at the
holiday season are conspieuousiy
absent in much of. the corn belt. The
corn has been removed from the
stock in most instances by the
Swapping rolls" of modern corn
picking machine.
The corn stover = that portion of
the stalk which remains after the
grain has ben removed ~ was form
erly bundled and laboriously hauled
to the barn for winter feeding. Now
it is allowed to remain in the field
where the livestock may browse at
will, cleaning he grain that escaped
the mechanical lingers of the power
specialized grain farms that have no
livestock, the task of reducing the
stalks TO a mulch on the surface of
the soil may be accomplished by the
use of a power-driven stock beater,
or by once-over treatment with a
large disc harrow.
These power-driven tools have
wrought another change in the farm
landscape that will be evident TO
persons accustomed to the neatly
fenced fields of an earlier period.
Many boundaries have completely
disappeared, as fields have been
merged to permit more efficient use
of mechanized equipment, Frequent
ly the only semblance of a field
enclosure is an electrically charged
wire, supported on insulators at
tached to wooden stakes or metal
pins. The wire is often so small
in diameter that it is barely visible
at hundred PAGES,
The Old Farm Well
Similar changes have occurred
about the farmstead. The farm well
and pump may still be in the same
location, but the task of pumping
water for the livestock and house
hold use is usually accomplished with
the aid of an electric motor, now
that electric energy is available on
virtually every farm.
The outward appearance of the
barn may be no different from that
of twenty years ago, but the con-
tents within have changed. The horse
stalls, for example, may still be
there but are no longer being used
to house the farm teams. Most likely
the area formerly reserved for the
horses is now being used to house
some other class of livestock. Or,
If the space is being used for general
storage it may contain any one OF
a number of items, such as brightly
printed paper bags of commercial
fertilizer for next years crops, OF
weed spray materials, or the garden
tractor, or the power lawn mower
or other equipment relatively un-
heard of on the farm generation
ago.
The overflowing mows of loose
hay, which were as much a part OF
the "horse age" as neck yokes and
doubletrees, have generally been re-
placed by neat rows, Of baled hay
or by grass-green chopped hay which
had been barn-dried with the aid Of
motor-driven fan.

Republican Roosevelt
Blasts Father 5 Parry,
Lauds Eisenhower
By Robert K. Molsh

John Roosevelt, Republican. OF
Hyde Park, N. Y, follows a per-
sonal policy of refusing to discuss
political actions of his father. the
late President Franklin D. Roose-
welt. But he is "all for Eisen-
hover" and will vote "again and
again and again" against the
Democratic Party as currently
constituted and controlled.
He declared at a National
Press Club luncheon yesterday
that President Eisenhower needs
Republican-controlled Congress
because politics would have a
field day in Washington" If
Democrats capture the Senate or
House. And. he added, the Presi-
dent deserves congressional sup
port for having returned in
tegrity to high places in WASH
ington."
The 38-year-old Mr.. Roose-
velt. youngest and only Republi-
can son of the late President,
spoke as vice chairman of the
Citizens-for Eisenhower National
Congressional Committee. He
made clear that he considers
himself a Republican - not a
donkey in elephants clothing" :"
He also left the way open to
the possibility of running for
public Office, although he said
he has no such plans at this
time and has not been offered
any job in the Eisenhower adj
ministration.
Hits Truman.
During a question and answer
period he firmly blocked all re-
quests for comment on political
and policy acts of his father.
He said he was ready and will
ing to discuss the Democratic
Party of Harry Truman, Adlai
Stevenson and the Americans for
Democratic Action" He de-
scribed it as a "far cry from
the Democratic Party of my
fathers day"
"As long as the Democratic
Party is under the control of
Harry Truman, Adlai Stevenson
and the ADA, I will vote Repub-
hcan again and again and
again." he promised.
Mr.. Roosevelt assured his hear
ers that, in turning Republican,
he did not advocate turning

back to 1882" He maintained
that President Eisenhower has
a positive. forward looking pro-
gram which needs the support Of
"a Republican-controlied Com
gress.
"If at the end of the next two
years the people decide they
don't like that program" he
added. then they can kick us
all out. But I. for one. don't
want to swap a good horse for a
balky mule"
Wanted q Change.
As for his own political course,
he described himself as having
been the only non-political men,
ber of the Roosevelt family until
1852. One of his main reasons
for becoming a Republican, he
said. was that he was ashamed
the Democratic Party had been
in power "too long" in Wash
ington and Integrity and moral
fiber had deteriorated in high
places"
Former President Truman, .
he said. made me take the
plunge-for the Republicans"
