It was not to be Tom's lot to enjoy any of the conveniences of modern living or to be blessed with the opportunity or receiving schooling in early childhood. At the age of five years he began to herd sheep and stayed with the flocks until he' was fourteen. Tom says he was so small when he first started that he used to place his hat on the end of a gun and hold it up so his dog could locate him. At the age of twelve he received his first introduction to school, but his presence in the classroom was not going to be for long. It seems it was only a matter of a few weeks until the young lad was called back to resume his sheep Tom's father's sheep herding. were being herded by his Uncle Sam Mulliner. It was during the days of range wars. One morning as they began to drive their flocks into the mouth of Mercur Canyon they were met by a man by the name of Cly who was herding sheep for the Parker outfit. It seems that Cly had been ordered to keep everyone off the range regardless of what it meant. As Sam Mulliner, aided by Tom's brother Ephraim, started their sheep into the mouth of the canyon, Cly met them and ordered, "Get out of here or I'll learn you a lesson." Sam yelled back, "Go ahead and learn." At this Cly raised his gun and fired at Mulliner.

The Secretary has more confidence in the ability of our farmers to adapt to changing conditions. SUBSIDY EFFECTS I recently received some figures from the Department of Agriculture which I want to share with you. They clearly bear out Secretary Benson's contention that our problem as it applies to milk and butter is not overproduction but underconsumption. THE FACTS One would assume that the high incomes earned during the past eieht ver would have enabled our people to eat all of the dairy and milk products they wanted. Such has not been the case. Since 1945 the ior capita consumption of fluid milk anil cream has declined 47 jnuinds. For the same period the consumption of butter the equivalent of an additional 45 pounds of milk. No wonder Secretary Benson decided that something should be done if the dairy industry was not to price itself completely out of the consumer market.
