prospective executives into the
company. The trainees will
eventually move into key
positions within Pennfield’s five
divisions. The training period is
set for six months to one year
with an on-the-job rotation
program being a prime phase of
the curriculum.
Although Pennfield feels very
strongly about promoting from
within, corporate growth
necessitated creating the
management training program.
A well-rounded team of veterans
combined with new blood is
projected in the corporation’s
future growth structure.
Soybean Farmers Must
Plan Their Futures
In the middle of an un
precedented demand for
soybeans U S farmers must
continue to plan for their own
future with priority on education
of the consuming public and
elected officials, according to
Harold Kuehn, American Soybe
an Association (ASA) president.
“The tragic results of not
educating these people can be
seen in the events of this sum
mer For years, taxpayer groups
have cried that their tax dollars
subsidized rich farmers with pa
yments not to plant. The jokes
initiated by the uneducated
pictured the farmer in an easy
chair calculating government
income for not raising hogs. As
you well know, that was never the
case. But, the uninformed ur
banites believed it.”
Kuehn made his remarks at the
opening session of the ASA
national convention.
“The soybean farmer insured
his own independence from
government by expanding
Introduce New Apricot Variety
Goldrich, an improved early
ripening apricot variety, has
been jointly introduced by the U.
S. Department of Agriculture
(USDA) and the Washington
Agricultural Experiment Station.
Developed by USDA’s
Agricultural Research Service
and the Washington State
University’s Agricultural Ex
periment Station, Pullman,
Goldrich was originally released
in 1971 as “Sungiant,” but has
been renamed because of in
fringement upon an existing
trademark.
Goldrich is being introduced
for the fresh market to replace
the Wenatchee variety because
the fruits are earlier-ripening,
more uniform in ripening, more

markets for his product The
meat price freeze and the
soybean embargo said in effect
that farmers do not deserve a
decent income from either
government- tax dollars or free
market prices. We are moving
through a transition but it is
evident that a vast number of
uniformed people in the country
are determined that farmers will
have neither government nor the
market.”
He told convention delegates
“no other agricultural com
modity can look forward to the
potential growth possible for
soybeans”. In 1963, demand was
only 700 million bushels.
“ASA has turned many
problems into opportunities m
recent years. But, we have to
keep moving forward instead of
standing still.
“U S. farmers must sharpen
market development skills—hone
them to a razor’s edge so that
every dime we spend brings us a
dollar’s worth of new markets,”
attractive and firmer and
because the trees are more
resistant to winter injury.
Goldrich fruit resembles that of
Sun-Glo, but is larger - reaching
2Vfe inches in diameter with
proper thinning. The flesh is an
attractive deep orange, firm,
fme-textured and acid until fully
mature. The ground color must
be allowed to develop fully before
harvest to assure maximum
quality and low acidity.
