Principal Message We might say that it was altogether fitting and proper that Cincinnatus be named after a famous Roman leader who was a farmer. Today very few communities are as purely agriculturalas this area. In the days of early settlers of our country, our state, and our community, a very high percentage of these folks derived their living from the soil. As the years have passed those engaged in pursuits of agriculture have become more efficient in their work. As a result, the number of farmers continues to grow less while the population of our country grows rapidly. Today in this Empire state very few com- munities earn their livlihood from agriculture although this area continues to earn its living from farming. Farmers enjoy more freedom than their friends from centers of population and are, therefore, noted for being more independent than people in other walks of life. It is necessary to guard against becoming too conservative and thus be too far behind thetimes. However, the opportunity to experiment with new ways is always present. We note that our rural schools in New York State have made tremendous progress in the past three decades and are now examples of the finest in the land. As many country boys and girls as their city counterparts go on for further education. They are as well dressed, as well mannered, and as well poised as their city cousins. Many of the handicaps of farm life have disappeared with the advent of automobiles and specialized farm equipment. Yet most of the freedom and independence of our forefathers has been preserved. I, there- fore, most sincerely feel that you cannot find a more honorable and satisfying way of life than that of living from the soil. H. D. Sleight
