That farming is in better position now than most of the other industries ami the man on the land has as good or better a chance than his brother in the city was the concensus of opinion voiced by a dozen or so leading farmers of the state here at the agricultural conference at Purdue the past week. Aill of these men, however, brought out in their own prepared statements that it was up to the farmer to adopt the newest methods and use only the best if he was to succeed. Here is what they had to say: Arthur C. Stewart, Greensburg, newly elected president of-the Indiana Corn Growers’ Association: The farmer who has his land paid for or even a small mortgage is on top of the l world. If he is overloaded with debt he is having a hard time like anyone else. But a man on the land can make a living, have plenty of food, and get along by careful economy, which w'e all must practice. I feel the depression is going to he a lesson to all 1 of us, hut that farming will come hack slowly and on a sound basis. C. Y. Foster, Carmel, state legisla-ture,-member hoard of agriculture, dairyma- and newly elected president of the Indiana State Dairy Association: The dairy farmer is in good condition comparatively speaking. All | business is taking a rap but I feel the farmer is in a relatively better position. The record attendance here at the conference this week shows farmers want to learn more about their business. This is a good indication. A haphazard farmer is like a haphazard merchant or manufacturer—he can’t get anywhere. Claude Wic-kard, Camden, Master Fanner, general farmer, and ((resident of the Purdue Agricultural Alumni Association: At the present time there is evidence of adjustment in our national economic structure which will tend to correct some of the

evils which have beset agriculture the last decade. Generally speaking, agriculture will be in a beter position comparatively during the next decade. The farmer who enters this period without too much handicap from the past and who has the will to vvoik and the ability to analyze wilPIny tlie, ground work of success Ralph A. Kelly, dairy farmer, j Howe: After seven years of keeping, cow testing association records. 1 he lieve the "present offers a great "p portunity to the farmer who has rec ords on his cows and knows how to utilize the present low feed prices in production of milk anil butterfat. j Even with the low price of butteifat, ( there is a greater margin between feed cost and market price than there i has been for several years. With ] thousnads of dairy cows sold for Imef.; the prices of dairy cows are sure to be high in the future. Good dairy i cows and quality dairy products are| always in demand. Feed, weed, breed and advertise. (Mr. Kelly won bronze medals on his herd five of the seven years he has been in the cow testing association. Churchill Barr, Tlpto’n, Mastei Farmer, general farmer, past piesident of the Indiana Corn Growers’ Association and state champion last year: I think the farm is the best place to live now and always has been. The farmer’s lot is better than that of his city brother even in these times. If there ever was a time when farmers should study and apply scientific methods and use better agricultural practices, it is now. Our hours of labor may he longer and our profits not as great as in some other lines, but w-C work outdoors and have contact with nature, and nothing can take the place of this with me. O. W. Cromer, membo rof state leg islature from Delaware county, general farmer: Agriculture today has a brighter outlook than it has had for several years. The depression has been valuable to the farmer in that it has caused him to see the value of organization and of the knowledge that may tie gained through research conducted by such institutions a- I’urdue university. In view of the fact that the population of the country is increasing so fast, while we are at the bottom of the depression, there is a great future financiallv for the American farmer. Jason DeFord, Converse, prominent corn grower and reserve sweepstakes winner in 1932 state corn show: Farm ing has been on an unfair basis with other industries and we farmers have been on a downward road, buit in my opinion we are about to the bottom. When the world recognizes farming as one big factory, or rather the largest industry in the world, we will come back to our place. Now is the time to get in and fight for better livestock and better farm -products, to do our best to build up the soil with legumes and get larger yields of hot ter quality crops; live within our incomes and stick to the good oud farm, for after all it is the only place on earth where you ran enjoy freedom of action and thought and all the things that go along with them. C W. Newman, Culver, dairyman, retiring president of the Indiana H<4 stein Freisian Associatim md formei president of Indiana State Daily As sociation: A man without debt, who is willing to economize, < an make just | as good a living today in farming as in any other Industry. Now is the time to take advantage of low commodity prices and Increase the qual ity of your product. The next fen years should be an excellent time for the younger generation to build new

fortunes.

Harry Stamp, Roachdale, member ,-tate legislature, president of Indiana Stallion Enrollment Board, vice-presi dent Horse Association of America, outstanding Belgian breeder: Now is the right time to get in with the right I kind of livestock. I believe that the j farmer who feeds his grain into the ] right kind of livestock is going to lie in a better position than the straight grain farmer. E. J. Barker, Thorntown, general farmer, secretary, Indiana Board of Agriculture, and president of Indian i Livestock Breeders’ Association: We are firm in our position that agiicul ture is still sound and will come back in a good way in a reasonable length of time. The man w ho is loaded with debt, plus unjust taxation which he has to tiear, cannot come back, hut the man who is out of debt or not too heavily involved has a bright future if he only looks for it. 1 think any man who has money to invest will do well to put it in farm land now, rather than any other securities. John W. VanNatta, Lafayette, hanker, and livestock breeder: Every good farmer on every good fann -.hould raise some kind of pure hied livestock, whether it he hogs, cattle, horses, or slieep. There never has been a time when pure breeds have not been worth mole than grades, and there has always been a time over a period of years when pure breds have had double the value of grades. The present economic situation with its comparatively low prices for pure breds presents a rare opportunity for the farmer to make a sound invest ment in the development of pure bred^ that are bou -d to pa; big dividends lr.
