""People have within their own hands the tools to faphion their own destiny," This is a quotation from "Vice President in Charge of Revolution" by Murray D. Lincoln, The book is really the story of the life work of Murray D. Lincoln. The story of a farm boy whose one desire was to be a good farmer. However in order to be a good farmer he felt a real need to learn as much as possible and just before graduation from agricultural college was asked to accept a position as' farm adviser 'to a group of farmers who wished to improve their farming methods to im- prove their incomes. He really became the first County Agent in United Stat- es which position is similar to our agricultural representative. Less than 21 at this time he soon realized that farmers weren't much impressed with this young college graduate and he found out that basically these farmers felt there was nothing that could be done to improve their lot. This was back in 1913 and I wonder how many young agricultural repre- sentatives find the same atti- tude to-day. However an infestation of army worm which Murray was able to control gave prestige and he followed by using fertil- izer demonstration plots. This was followed by better seeds and drainage with steady pro- gress. Improved hogs and dairy cows were next. The progress was quite grati- fying to the young County Agent. He saw production and quality improve but it still stuck in the back of his mind that his uncle back on the farm who sold his milk in town and purchased his fath- er's milk as well was much more prosperous than his father. With this in mind he set about organizing the farmers so that they might process and distribute their milk. Several of the more influential farm- ers were strong supporters and the project was moving rapidly to definite action. Just at this time Mr. Lin- coln got a call from the Washington Department o f Agriculture saying that some- one was being sent to inter- view him. When the representative ar- rived, in a few pointed remarks he advised Murray that he was going too far. He commended the County Agent for his suc- cess in making "two blades of grass grow in place of one". The cow testing program was fine but the County Agent must stay away from economic things such as milk distribu- tion plants. Baffled and angry Murray visited one of his old profes- sors at college and asked "Why?", The answer—simply that he had .stepped on some prosper- Mrs. Alex Shaw AUBURN — Funeral serv- ices were held at the Arthur funeral home for Mrs. Alex Shaw on Monday, December 31. She was born at Auburn and was formerly Mary June Dyer, the daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Martin Dyer. She was in her 88th year.

Pall-bearers were Oliver An- derson, Wesley Bradnock, Ch- arles Scott and Robert Phillips. ous toes which had hollered "ouch" to the U.S. Depart- ment of Agriculture—and this. prior to the First Worlds War. How many times does his, tory have to repeat itself .be- fore farmers learn there are two forces, for and against in- creased farm income and that they had better decide which side they are on. At a meeting of the County Federation executive and com- modity group repeesentatives with local members of who., ment recently it was almost amusing to hear .compliments given the federal members for wheat sales to China which of course helped the western wheat growers but nobody mentioned that - the issuing of import permits for U.S. feed grain just as effectively re- duced grain prices and no doubt saved large vertical in- tegrators from thousands of dollars loss, That it also re- duced returns to the family farmer is unimportant. On Country Calendar on, December 30 the heads of the Agricultural Research Depart- ments of the OAC and the Quebec MacDonald College were interviewed. During the course of the dis- cussion on the improvements in agriculture which listed new varieties of grain, fruits and vegetables, was noted the use of new insecticides and anti- biotics. After a lengthy statement on the vast improvement in broil- er production through the use of antibiotics the speaker sum- med up and ended the discus- sion With the simple statement: "This has been good for the consumer." I agree that "I am my broth- er's keeper" but please "whose brother am I?" a Eyre - Wood K I P P E N—A quiet wedding took place in Egmondville Un- ited Church manse on Christ- mas day, when the Rev.
