for the problem with youths il
simply a product Of the changing
times Of today.
He said that 100 years ago nine
out of 10 persons were working on
the farms. To-day only about two
out Of 10 are working on the farm. y
he said Another thing he pointed
out is that this generation is not
taught the proper respect for their
material things. He said that previ-

the tools with which they worked
now II out of 20 do not own theft

Along with this he said that the

nesday. Feb 27 at 1880 pm.
Gordon L Baldwin, Vo-Ag lnstruc-
tor, said that he would have tractor,
pillow, mower and corn planter at the
meeting for study, and he also
hoped to have factory rapresen-
tative present to demonstrate the
preper adjustment and maintenance
Of the machines.
He said it is generally conceded
that more pillow shares have been
worn out form improper hitching
than from actual use.
This meeting is designed to pro-
vide farmers an opportunity to learn
the correct methods of hitching and
adjusting tractor ploWs
He pointed out that most farmers
today have as much capital invested
in tractors and equipment as they
have in the entire farm, This
makes it even more important than
ever to get the maximum life and
use from these machines, said
Baldwin.
He urges interested farmers to at
tend this class and learn the latest
procedures for proper maintenance
Of their farm equipment.
Other classes in the series will in
chlde instruction on m b since S,
balers, and other major equipment.

This information now is pre-
Sented only to the Judge.
District Attorney Roy A.
GustafSon of Ventura County,
who originated the idea Of the
new law, said it will allow the
jury to give sentences that not
only fit the crime but also the
individual"
Both Mr.. Gustafson and Mr..
Allen predict the law will re-
duce controversy over murder
trials and help cut trial costs.
State Judge Critical
A high-ranking State appeals
judge disagrees. The judge. who
asked that his name not be
used, called it another encum:
brance on the judicial system.
He predicted that in lengthy,
sensational cases the second
trial could well last as long as
the first. thus adding to costs.
Costs would soar even higher,
the judge said. if an appeals
court reversed the conviction
and ordered a new trial. This
would require the whole pro-
cedure to be repeated. he said.
