Show Uintah Basin Standard nun, Jan. 27, I960 Page 10 BLUEBELL by Garda Seeley the beet prospects we With farmer! have faced for many a moon. It sure makes me want to get the old ball rolling and see my farm come to life. There seems to be a sort of Inner excitement this year, like maybe farming' will reach a plain more equal to other jobs, like maybe the future life on the farm will have a challenge that will appeal to one who loves the soil. X truly believe that I will soon receive a fair compensation for all I can produce. That, I, as a farmer, will again be asked to produce to the best of my ability and I will be proud of my land, my work, and proud of the accomplishment of bringing my land into full production. If there was ever a year to put phosphate on the land this Is It, It sure does my old heart good to use phosphate and manure till the soil becomes rich and mellow, In fact it makes farming fun. Raising crops that are abundant makes ma feel like saying, "Thats mine. If my crops are poor I feel like looking the other way. Good oil and crops give me a feeling of satisfaction and make me a "Happy Fanner. Poor soils and crops give me a feeling of discontentment and lowers my whole outlook. Yep, I think I will buy my fertiliser early and make sure I have it, With the proepects such ss they are, if ever there waa a year for good crops, this is it With reclamation projects Starting in our area there will be ample job opportunities to supplement farm Income, If this should continue to be necessary. However I feel the firms will again reach the point where labor on the farms will be paid on an equal basis with the jobs we now seek or hold. This is the year to do our darndest, it will pay off. With the turning of events uplifting the American farmer. It is also causing new fires to be lit in the hearts and souls of farmers everywhere. Fires of hope that will bring more food to billions and more dignity to man. This week I would like to take my hat off to Valerie McClellan for being awarded the title of "Uhlans Homemaker of Tomorrow". This is a well deserved award for Valerie and X wish her success in the fut- ure contests.

This all came about when Kennecolts Utah Cop per Division recently started the first phase of a new $5 million dollar Molybdic Oxide and Rhenium Recovery Plant adjacent to its smelter. That phase was the start up of one of two roasters which will process molybdenum sulfide from the Arthur and Magna Concentrators. The plant will be in full production late in May. It will enable Kcnnccott to supply the growing demand for two grades of molybdic oxide used as an alloy to toughen steel.
