In addition, Price's proposal

The success of the American farmer is basic to our country’s economy. Yet he is besieged on every
side .. . occasionally even characterized as some kind of profiteering villain. It is obvious that he needs
help in telling it like it is. Pioneer Hi-Bred International is placing ads similar to this one in consumer
publications. Pioneer’s Southwestern subsidiary, Pioneer Hi-Bred Company of Plainview, Texas hopes oth-
ers in the business community will do what they can to help the American farmer get the credit due him.

They laughed
when I bought
my first Bond.
In my neighborhood everyone was poor.
Most of us were lucky if we had enough food
to eat or clothes to wear. So like most kids we
spent a lot of time talking about the things
we wanted out of life. Things like owning a
big car,. wearing fine clothes and going to all
of the best places. Boy, we could hardly wait
to grow up.
Like the other kids I had little odd jobs in
grammar school but I got my first real job
when I started high school. I was a junior
clerk in a big department store. That’s where
I first heard about U.S. Savings Bonds. My
boss asked me if I wanted to join the Payroll
Savings Plan and I said yes. A month later I
got my first bond.
When my friends found out they really had
a good laugh. Imagine buying U.S. Savings
Bonds when there were so many other great
things to buy. Well, they kept laughing and I
kept saving all through high school.
After graduation some of us wanted to go
to college. And that’s when my Bonds really
came in handy. They not only helped pay my
tuition, but also helped buy some books.
Well, I’m a senior now and looking forward
to graduation. Unfortunately, a lot of my
friends never even got started. And to think,
they laughed when I bought my first Bond.

All the while our farmers have been doing business at
prices substantially out of the 1950’s, the cost of the goods
and services they buy are straight out of the 1970’s. How can
they survive buying high and selling low? The sad fact is
many don’t. In the last two decades, nearly half our farmers
have left the land for already crowded cities because ends
couldn’t be met.
Now you know.
Statistics say the American farmer is the most efficient
worker in the world. Each farmer provides food for fifty-one
people. Compared to 20 in 1950. He is one of the very few of
us who literally makes something where nothing was before.
That could be why, in spite of the built-in risk of trying to
beat Mother Nature year in and year out, you’ll hear them all
say, “I’m proud to be an American farmer.”
Now, you may ask why the folks at Pioneer are telling you
all this. Over the years, we’ve gotten to know a whole lot of
farmers ... so we decided we ought to speak up with the
facts. Our friends on farms al’ over the country deserve it.

upwards of $68,000,000 as a
result of the provision of the
1969 Price Support Act, which
operates to create an artificual
five-month period during which
the value of the wheat certificate
is determined," Purcell ex-
plained.
These farmers “should not
have to bear the burden of being
asked to support an action which
has been touted by the Adminis-
tration as the answer to far-
mers’ prayers,” Purcell added.

According to Charlie Morris,
general round-up chairman, the
September 25 cattle sale raised
$81,000 toward the overall goal
of $120,000 for the round-up.
He stressed that $40,000 must
be raised with the next three
sales.

traditional source of income
for the west Texas Rehabilita-

the handicapped of the south-
west. The center currently has
an active patient list of 753.
The center has an annual
operating budget of almost
$500,000, most of which is
raised through contributions.
