CASH FOR THE FARMER When it comes to cash income, meat is the biggest thing in the life of the farmers. Last year meat animals brought him the nice round sum of $9,500,000,0'0'0 —almost one-third of his entire cash income from all crops plus government payments. No other single source of income came even even close to the receipts fom meat. And the meat income was $1,000,000,000 greater than in 1949. The virtue of livestocks, from the farmer's point of view, is that it can be raised in practically all locations and on any scale from one animal up. There are great ranches, which produce thousands of head. But a very large percentage of the meat we consume is found in the accumulated supply produced by farmers who raise a few animals each year as a sure and steady source of cash. In the meat business, there is room for all, and all are

needed. A healthy meat industry is of the highest importance to the farmer and rancher — just as it is to the consumer, who wants his steaks and chops and hamburger to be available when he desires them. That kind of a meat industry was built in the free, competitive market, under the supply-and-demand economic system. And the pity is that that kind of market is always undermined and weakened when government takes hold of the reins with price and other controls. We are seeing that now—with meat scarcities in many consuming centers, growing black markets, and dislocations all along the line in the normal process of production and distribution. In the long pull, a controlled economy harms everyone —except the bureaucrats. Mrs. Louise Connolly is spending Thanksgiving in Tecumseh, Mich.,

Rotary Club Meets The Syracuse-Wawasee Rotary Club met Monday night at the Pickwick with near thirty members present. Due to a misunderstanding, John Sheire, in charge of The program, had films for one size camera, and film operator Court Slabaugh had a movie projector for another size—so that feature had to be dispensed with. Several members of the club invited themselves down to Rotarian Harry Nicolai’s machine shop on an inspection. Mr. Nicolai is doing some experimental work for two South Bend companies with war contracts. He is manufacturing various parts for carbuerators, jet engines, automobiles, etc. Mr. Nicolai explained and demonstrated the use of several of his machines. Next Monday night a Thanksgiving program, plus other features will be held. 4-H Achievement Program Draws 200 Monday Night More than 200 attended the 4-H achievement pcogram at the Syracuse school Monday night.

Dodge Trucks Compete In Truck Roadeo r | F. F. Hooplngarner of Syracuse Auto Sales, local Dodge dealer, has received word that *s'9 of the 97 state champions competing in the three major events of the National Truck Roadeo in Chicago chose Dodge “JobRated” trucks to drive in the spirited contest for national titles. Six of the 9 national championships awarded in the straight truck, the tractor single-axle semi-trailer, and the tractor tan-dem-axle semi-trailer classes were won by contestants driving Dodge trucks. All three places in the tractor single-axle semi-trailer event were won by drivers who chose a Dodge JA-128 (2‘4-ton) truck. Albert D. Pomahatch, driver for Merchants Motor Freight, Inc., of St. Paul, Minn., won the national title in this event. Guern Royster, driver for Pacific Intermountain Express, Oakland, Cal., won second, and J. Clark Gilbert, a driver for Inland Motor Freight, Spokane, Wash., won third. Two of the three championships in the straight truck event were won by drivers who chose a Dodge GA-152 (1%-ton) truck. They included Kenneth A. Folck, driver for Lee s Estes, Inc., Portland, Ore., who won second, and Elvie A. Harris, driver for Great Southern Trucking Co., Jacksonville, Fla., who won thrid. Norman L. Hulker, driver for Claxton Truck Lines, Inc., Frankfort, Ky., drove a Dodge YA-142 (4-ton) truck to win third in the tractor tandem-axle semi-trailer event. Five state champions who had won their titles in state eliminations while driving other makes of trucks switched to Dodge trucks in the national finals after they drove them on a Chicago practice course. Eight manufacturers offered trucks in the national finals, and the 97 champions representing 34 states were free to choose any of the eight trucks to drive. Sixty per cent of the champions chose Dodge trucks to drive in their bid for national honors, or more than all other makes combined. FARM THADiTICJ Friends Help Rebuild Vets' Farm in a Day FRANZEN, Wis.—The people of Franzen reverted to the old farm tradition of neighbors helping one another to help a disabled veteran turned farmer, Frank Flees. In a single day friends of the veteran brought modern soil conservation to his farm. More than 260 willing helpers turned out to modernize his farm buildings and land. Flees was bom to immigrant parents on a farm in the town of Franzen in 1923. He was graduated from grade school, then joined the marines in 1943. He was commended for meritorious service and wounded on Guam. After he was discharged Flees returned to Wisconsin to work in a mill. After nine months of this, he began to yearn for the land. So he his grade school sweetheart. He attended the GI farm training school where he sharpened his knowledge of practical agriculture and began to learn about the value of retaining the water on the slopes and how to keep his pastures green. One Eye Injured Then in September, 1950, while he was filling a silo on the farm, a chain snapped. One end hit him in the right eye and destroyed its sight. It was then that 125 youths in Flees’ farm training school decided to help. So did his neighbors. First of all he needed the buildings to operate his farm—a house, bam, milkhouse, silo. He needed ] more land for cultivation, and lime ! and fertilizer for his soil. The farm home administration couldn’t give him a big enough loan to accomplish all that. Then Dr. B. J. Przedpelski. associate extension agent of Marathon and Wood counties, stepped in to give a hand. He enlisted the aid of the churches, federal farm agencies, women’s clubs, civic clubs and corporations. A Lifetime’s Work The labor force of Flees’ friends and neighbors numbered over 200. There were about 25 technical experts to direct the operation and, while helping Flees, showed other farmers good practices in Wisconsin agriculture. This is what the volunteers have I accomplished: Built a house, barn, milkhouse and silo. Built roads. s Bulldozed 25 acres of woods. 1 Planted trees on about five acres of land unsuitable for farming. Cleared stones from about II i acres. Prepared about 25 acres for alfalfa. Renovated about 10 acres of worn pasture. Dug a pond for watering livestock. All of It was accomplished with donated machines, labor and materials. To build a farm like this one would have taken Flees most of a lifetime. Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Griffith and Mr. and Mrs. Robert Clevenger spent Monday in Fort Wayne.
