that family farms make up some
40 percent of these larger units
and are growing every day.
The number of all farms in
the U.S. is declining, but those
which have disappeared were
small units, said Prater. Most
of those which have dropped
from the scene produced less
than $2,500 annually in sales.
This means production will be
concentrated on a smaller num-
ber of larger farms.
‘ During the next five years,
prater sees the, number of
farms in the $10,000 plus cate-
gory continuing to grow. Since
these are mainly family farms,
the bulk of the nation's food
and fiber will be produced by
farm families who operate and
manage their own tusiness.

“Graham can be proud that
of all the North Texas cities
contributing to Easter Seals,
which support the North Texas
Rehabilitation Center in Wichi-
ta Falls, it ranks No. 4 In do-
nations," Mrs. L. C. Young,
Easter Seal chairman, said.
“And this is just," she said,
“because the Graham area also
ranks No. 4 in number of chil-
dren receiving treatments at the
center." Sixteen children from
Graham, three from Loving and
one each from Woodson, Bunger
and Bryson have benefited by
treatments there.

Last year Graham gave $542-
.40 to Easter Seals, right be-
hind Burkburnett and Olney.
Wichita Falls had the greatest
amount.
Mrs. Young, a member of the
board of directors of the reha-
bilitation center, said, "Iwould
like to see the 1966 contribu-
tions go even higher. Graham
has a vital interest in the cen-
ter. Our children need its help."
Patient fees provide only 12
to 15 per cent of the annual
$40,000 budget, she said. Easter
Seals make it possible for the
center to continue serving the
people of North Texas.
Easter Seals were mailed this
week to 1,000 Graham area
homes. “If every one would give
just one dollar," she said,
“think how much help we could
contribute."
Coin canisters have been
placed in a number of Graham
businesses. These feature a
picture of the national Easter
Seal child and tell how many
Graham children have been
treated at the center in Wichita
Falls.
Since its founding in 1948 as
a cerebral palsy center with a
staff of three therapists and an
enrollment of 26 cerebral pal-
sied children, the center has
expanded its services to include
seven professionally trained
therapists who treat a current-
ly active roster of nearly 100
children and adults.
“All this has been made pos-
sible,” Mrs. Young said, "by
the Easter Seal dollars which
you and I have given.”
Director of the center is Mrs.
Jack Wages, the former Bettye
Farmer ofGraham. Her parents
are Mr. and Mrs. H.C. Farmer.

way out'’ "Far from it," re-
ports Tom Prater, Extension
farm management specialist at
Texas AAM University.
“In fact," said Prater, "ac-
cording fto the 1964 census of
agriculture, the number of fam-
ily farms in the U. S. is grow-
ing--and the future looks even
brighter.”
A 1964 estimate of form num-
bers shows that family-opera-
ted farms make up about' 60
percent of the total. Theyvalso
account for about 75 percent of
all farm marketings, said Prat-
er.
