LUU is Qwfspvulng Lwcjfamj Wyr- Ranching is a good way of life. Sure, we experience some bad years along the way, but the joy of a good year once in a while and the hope of another one helps keep us going. Dick Atkins Research for oil has come a long way. For instance , instead of having to leave the wooden frame of the drilling rig to work on the well , one can now tear the drilling rig down and move to a different location. Nowdays one can call a different rig in to work on the well like the one in the pic- ture . Work in the oilfield was hard in early days, but now with modern machines and tools to help the worker, it is a whole lot easier. Mr . White ' 'I believe farming is one of the best ways to make a living but it takes a lot of hard work and long hours. There is not as much hard work now as when I first started to farm. There are more machines to do the work. I believe the farm outlook is good for there will be more people to feed and there is not any more land being made. It costs a lot more to farm now than when I first started to farm: all parts, fuel, and new farm equipment have gone up greatly . A tractor and equipment that ten years ago cost 5 to 6 thousand dol- lars today cost 15 to 20 thousand. Five years ago diesel cost 15 to 20 cents: today it costs 35 to 50 cents. Farming and stock farming is one of the main sources of income to the Jim Ned Valley. Farming and ranching feed more people with less manhours than any other country in the world . Consumers pay less of their total income for food than in any other country in the world. Farm and ranch families are important to this area, state, and nation. Delmon Smith Wx A I
