Who knows how many track tramps once caught a ride from a train traveling these very tracks' (Marren Photo) . Farmers: Stewarts Of Soil Farmers are still the stewards of the soil and as such have a concern for its care and use, unmatched by any of the new breed of environmentalists. Farmers understand the biological phenomena much better than the ecoiogists. Farmers have been strip cropping, contour plSwing, using winter cover crops, maintaining windbreaks, damming up gullies and generally protecting the land before today's generation o f environmentalists were born; ' However, the conflicts that really disturb farmers today are the stream of regulatory measures with little or no substantiating evidence to warrant them. Farmers will try to adapt to reasonable regulations, given time .for adequate alternatives to be developed. If a presently used practice or chemical were outlawed before an economic alternative is developed, production would undoubtedly suffer and prices would increase. The cost of the changes are going to be borne by the -consumers eventually. The benefits of,. most technological improve-" ments in food pro duction have ' been quickly passed on to the consumer, and likewise, the costs of mandated changes will get the same pass through. Heretofore, the non agricultural segment of our society has implied that farmers have done a great disservice to mankind by the use of their technological discoveries and advancements; that our fertilizers, herbicides, pesticides and machinery, our irrigators, manure applicators, etc. are all upsetting the balance of nature. '.;.'.;'. tfoweveir, to deny theuse of such practices, without expecting a reduction in food supplies and higher prices, is absurd. BY LUCILLE T.
