Eisenhower, in presenting his farm
program to the Congress. clearly
stated that the administrations
proposals were means to speed
the transition" to a sane solution
Of the problem
The fallacy in the federal agri-
cultural program since 1888 has
been the failure to recognize the
sweeping chronological changes in
agriculture during the last fifty
years. We arc caught in the midst
of an agricultural revolution that
is Just as real and full Of meaning
for the future as was the appli-
cation of steam to power in the
mid-18th century Farming is an
industry and must be treated as
such if it is to take its place as a
strong and healthy unit in our
economy.
Whatever the final solution to
the problem is, it must include
means of promoting the continued
wcll-bcing Of the family farm l am
convinced that our economy de-
mands a strong and healthy base
that includes both small family
owned farms and independent
business enterprises

carried out in the Ridgelcy-Cum-
bcrland area is important for
many intcrdcpendent reasons.

The Kids Learned
to Take Charge"

was down at Buck Benson's
store the other day when a fellow
came in with a six-year-old boy -
obviously his son.
While the fellow was looking
over some stuff on the counter.
Buck handed a free peppermint
stick to the boy. who promptly
tore off the wrapper and went to
work on it.
The father seemed quite put
out about his sons lack of man
ners and held up his hand to stop
him. "What do we say when Mr..
Benson gives US something's" he
demanded. "Charge it," replied

the Kid without hesitation.
From where sit. children aren't
the only ones who repeat things"
without knowing what they're
talking about. For instance, I'm
convinced that many of those who
speak out against the old Amer
lean custom of enjoying a glass of
beer after work are just parroting
what they've heard others say. It's
better to get the facts-then make
up our 0trn minds and permit
our neighbors to do the same.
