Money Named Farmer of Year At their monthly .meeting, the supervisors of the Nebo Soil Conservation District chose Eldon A. Money of Palmyra to be the Conservation Farmer of the year 1968. So reports Marion Sorensen, chairman of the district board. This recognition is given Mr. Money and his wife Sharlene, for their interest and activity in resource planning. (No farmer can accomplish anything of much worth without the full and wholehearted support of his wife and family - and thats a fact.) To farmers like Eldon and others, the resources most vital are soil - water and their conservation. Through the years Mr. Money has planned and applied conservation practices on his own land and has given strong support and encouragement to his neighbors and local groups. The Moneys are the parents of four children, Nanette, 10; Leslie Kay, 9; Brent, 7; and Allison, 5. Mrs. Money is the former Sharlene Swenson. Eldon is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. J. Money. He was reared in Palmyra and educated in the Spanish Fork Schools. He attended Utah State University. Mr. Money, a cooperator with the Nebo Soil Conservation District, has a conservation plan. He owns and operates 353 acres of land. 238 acres is pasture and 115 acres is cultivated land. Over the years numerous conservation practices have been applied. Technical assistance has been given by the Soil Conservation Service. Some financial assistance has been supplied by the Agricultural Conservation Program (ACP) of Utah County. His farming operation is built around 80 head of Hereford breeding cows. He has grazing rights off the farm for part of this number. .As time progresses he plans to increase the breeding herd. He buys 50-head of feeder cattle each year to utilize feeds grown on the farm. Mr. Money is active in civic 60 Dear Reader: Last week I wrote a little about being a member of a captive audience. Today I shall write a bit about your captor; the speaker or the person who holds the keys to your freedom or your enchantment whatever the case may be. You know a feller has quite a responsibility when he is called upon to speak to an audience. Lets say he has captured 400 people who have bathed, deoderized, put on their Sunday best and put forth other efforts to become members of the congregation. The speaker may expound for 30 minutes to 400 captives which means, he has claimed 12,000 man minutes. Are A good man worries: all those 12,000 man minutes worthwhile to all those people who have bathed, deoderized, put on their Sunday best and put forth other efforts just to hear him speak. The world is so full of worthwhile things and we are moving forward faster in all things than we ever have, our captures should make an effort to keep abreast and organize his speaking to fit the times. Im now thinking of a good who said recently: I organized this speech in 1942. carried me through many rough spots. I dont know how brother Its many times Ive delivered it. Someone asked Dr. Albert Schwietzer to name three important things to do to be successful He answered: Practice, practice, practice." which reminds me of the time I went to Ft. Lauderdale, Florida as an LDS missionary. Our quarters was a small home, conver- At present he is president of the Utah County Farm Bureau, and a director of the Spanish Fork Stock Show. He was chairman of the Green Belt Committee in 1968 for Utah County, which was very successful in getting taxation for land use, rather than land value. A past member of the Utah National Guard for 13 years, attaining the rank of Sergeant Major. In his church activities he has served as President of his Elders Quorum and at present is a member of the Palmyra Stake High Council Our hats go off for Eldom and Sharlene Money and we say Congratulations and wish you many happy and fruitful years of conservation farming. affairs. ted to a chapel My companion and I had the use of a kitchen, bath and a small bedroom. The two front rooms had been made into on and there the good saints of the area did their worshipping. On my first morning there, I took a stroll around the yard and I discovered a small path leading into a swamp. It had been set with stepping stones, so I followed it. About 200 yards into the soggy area I suddenly came to an opening in the vegetation. There stood a tree stump about pulpit high. Flat rocks were set on one side of it on which a man could stand and keep his feetdry. Four big swamp pines stood in a row a few yards away. Spanish moss hung over their faces like bridal veils. I wondered just how many men had stood back of that stump and preached to those shaggy pines. I do know though that during the next few months, two young fellers from Utah used that chapel in the open air two and three times a week for practice sessions. Those pines made a good audience even though they would whisper occasionally as an ocean breeze swayed them. I remember Apostle Adam S. Bennion stating that he had spent eight hours preparing his talk. While listening to that great man, one could easily be- lieve that he put that much time in preparation; one wanted to hear more and more and more. One never got that captured feeling when Ad Bennion was the speaker. He had all the qualities of a good speaker: 1. Delivery.. We heard every word clear and distinct and he varied his tone quality from idea to idea and he spoke to everyone from eight to 80. 2. He always had a message as fresh as tomorrows headlines. 3. He loaded his talks with humorous and serious antidotes and personal experiences which kept everyone from getting corrigated foreheads. (Read last weeks Round the Town" if you dont understand that one.) 4. He stuck to one subject and broke it into a few major issues and we left his presence better people for having heard him. 5. He filled the atmosphere with the power of his conversion. P.S. I still have organized speeches of Ad Bennion hidden away in the corners of my mind. A professor asked one of the students in his class to awaken the feller next to him. The student answered: You wake him up; you put him to sleep. And so I shall conclude my column today with the old truism If the audience goes to sleep, wake up the speaker. Mrs. Nada Farnsworth and daughter Colleen of Salt Lake visited Sunday at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Le Baron Robbins.
