140,000 kids and counting

Oklahoma Farm Bureau surpassed its 2002 quota May 24, marking the 14th consecutive record-breaking membership year for the Sooner State’s largest and most influential farm organization. The 2002 membership quota was 133,400 member families. That number was surpassed, and the end of May membership report showed 134,505 families on the rolls. Forty of the 77 county Farm Bureaus already have met or exceeded their 2002 membership quota, fueling the state organization’s recordbreaking membership pace.

Finally. . . . a farm bill

Fire Safety Trailers towed across state to educate children By Mike Nichols One hundred forty thousand and counting! That six-digit figure reflects the colossal number of youngsters who have gone through Oklahoma Farm Bureau’s interactive fire safety education program via its two mobile fire safety houses in less than three years. “The response, quite simply, has been overwhelming,” said Larry Pittser, OFB safety director. “It really has been amazing to have the opportunity to reach so many youngsters, and teach them the basics of fire safety. “The need certainly exists,” he declared. “Unfortunately, Oklahoma leads the nation in the number of fire deaths per million. Children are at the very top of that sad statistical scale.” Often dubbed the “fun house” by elementary students scurrying down the second story exit ladder after emerging from the smokefilled miniature bedroom, Farm Bureau’s Fire Safety House is more likely to be mistaken for an RV trailer. Eye-catching, bright red lettering — Oklahoma Farm Bureau Kids Fire Safety — emblazoned on the sides and rear of the two specialized trailers announces that these two trailers are not your grandfather’s RV. Kid-size rooms with kid-size furnishings, except in the kitchen, point to the specialized nature of the two rolling classrooms. A replica fireplace, flickering faux flames from ceramic logs, is the focal point for youngsters beginning their fire safety education odyssey in the living room area of the trailers. Youngsters huddle in the living area, eyes fixed on the volunteer, safety representative or fireman situated next to the fireplace who begins the interactive session. (Trailers, Page 2)

Quota busted!

After more than two years of hearings, negotiations, studies and debate, a new farm bill has been signed into law that provides a viable safety net for the nation’s farmers while maintaining the market-oriented features and flexibility of its 1996 predecessor. “The new farm program is an investment in rural America,” said Oklahoma Farm Bureau President Steve Kouplen. “The farm program ensures the continued production of major bulk commodities comprising the foundation of our economy.” The President signed the new legislation May 13 after a congressional committee worked out a compromise between the House and Senate versions. “Success of farmers and ranchers is essential to success of the American economy,” said President George Bush, as he signed the measure. “This bill is generous and provides a safety net for farmers. It will do so without encouraging overproduction and depressing prices. “I understand how hard farmers have to work for a living. I know they face tough challenges. I know how hard many struggle,” Bush continued. “Their livelihood depends on things they cannot control: the weather, crop disease, uncertain pricing. They need a farm bill that provides support and help when times are tough.” The new measure will pour $122 million of new money into Oklahoma in its first year, according to Jeramy Rich, OFB’s director of public policy. “This is tremendous for the economy and development of rural Oklahoma,” he said. In addition to the purely agricultural issues addressed by the measure, Rich said it also provides assistance in several areas important to all of rural America. “There is $100 million for high-speed broadband development in rural areas. There also is (Farm bill, Page 3)

Trailers make fire safety education an adventure (Continued from Page 1) A newspaper near the hearth, a dust cloth dangling from the mantle, an aerosol spray can near the flames. . . the children raise anxious arms, waving, seeking recognition from the instructor so they may be the one to point out the potential fire dangers lurking in the living room. The youngsters are eager to identify the hazards. Their explanations often include a tale of a little brother or sister who erred. Another instructor awaits the youngsters in the kitchen, where hazards lurk on the cook top, in the cabinets and sometimes even in the microwave. All the youngsters agree pot handles pointing outward from the cook top are hazardous. They immediately recognize that a towel on the cook top is a fire hazard. And most quickly identify the gas can in the cabinet to be hazardous. “We want each child to be a home ‘fire inspector’ and to learn how they can help make their homes safer,” says Pittser. It’s then only a short flight of stairs up to the kid-size bedroom that most of the youngsters have been itching to enter. This is the room that fills with smoke, the room where the door gets hot. The instructor sits on the pint-size bed, stooped beneath the low ceiling as the youngsters settle in the bedroom. “It’s probably the most important stop in the Fire Safety House,” says Pittser. In a few moments, the closed bedroom door will become hot. As volunteers put the back side of their hand on the door to feel the heat that would be generated in a fire in the next room, the instructor waits. “The primary thing we want them to learn is to evacuate their homes and go to a designated meeting spot,” says Pittser. The instructor emphasizes the importance of having a home evacuation plan, and urges the youngsters to discuss one with their par-

ents when they get home from school that same day. Special emphasis also is placed upon establishing a designated meeting spot outside the house, where the entire family will gather if a fire ensues. The youngsters are urged to establish a plan and meeting spot, and prodded to practice evacuating and meeting at their homes. The time now has arrived for all the children to get low on their hands and knees in the bedroom. Smoke is about to fill the room, and the children will learn they must stay low and crawl to safety. As the non-toxic smoke billows into the room, vision is totally obscured to simulate what happens during an actual house fire. “Most children are surprised,” says Pittser. “I can’t see. That’s what you always hear them say.” The white smoke puffs from the sliding glass door as the youngsters crawl out one-byone to descend the ladder to safety and assemble at the designated meeting spot agreed to only moments before. “Can we do it again, can we go back in that fun trailer,” often is uttered by the youngsters. “We’ve been to about 60 of the state’s 77 counties with the Fire Safety Trailers,” said Pittser. “About two or three counties have their own trailers, so we’ll never go there. But, we’ve been to some schools every year since the trailers have been in service on the request of the local schools and fire departments.” The fire safety trailers and the safety programs offered are provided free of any cost to schools, communities and other interested entities. “The programs offered through the fire safety trailer are specifically designed for children from kindergarten through fourth grade,” said Pittser. “We want to move Oklahoma out of that number one ranking in children’s fire deaths, and I believe we are making progress.”

Safety Specialist Justin Grego prepares youngsters for their crawl out of the soon to be smoke-filled bedroom in one of the fire safety trailers. Grego and Pittser have logged thousands of miles towing the two trailers to schools and communities across Oklahoma.

Hidden number is worth $60

OFB seeks nominations for state’s best Certified Crop Adviser

Ronald Morris of Antlers did not find his hidden OFB membership number in the April JOURNAL. Since the $40 was not claimed, the hidden number in this issue is worth $60. An OFB membership number is hidden somewhere in the JOURNAL. The membership number that appears on your JOURNAL mailing label is not the hidden number, but must match the hidden number for you to claim the cash. To claim the prize, the member family must find its own hidden number and then contact JOURNAL Editor Mike Nichols before the last day of the month weekdays, 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., at 405-523-2300.

Oklahoma Farm Bureau invites nomination of Certified Crops Advisers (CCAs) for recognition as the state’s best, and the opportunity to be considered in the national Excellence in Crop Advising for CCAs contest. The American Farm Bureau Foundation for Agriculture initiated the program with a grant from Syngenta Crop Protection. The state award and one national award will be

given to recognize CCAs who have performed superior service for clients in nutrient management, soil and water management, integrated pest management and crop production. OFB will announce its winner at the state convention in November. The national award will be presented at the AFBF annual convention in Tampa, Fla., in January 2003. That individual (and spouse) receives an expense-

paid trip to the AFBF meeting plus $500 cash. CCAs must be nominated to the state Farm Bureau by an active farmer or rancher or county Farm Bureau that knows of the individual’s qualifications. The individual nominated must be a CCA in good standing. Official nomination forms are available at county Farm Bureau offices, and should be sent to the OFB office no later than Sept. 2.

Bob Drake succeeds Orville Emmons on state board Davis farmer-rancher Bob Drake was appointed to the Oklahoma Farm Bureau board of directors May 16 following the resignation of Indiahoma farmer-rancher Orville Emmons. “I look forward to serving,” said Drake, who has been an officer on the Murray County Farm Bureau board of directors since 1963. Emmons was elected to the state board in 1996 and re-elected to a second term in 1999. “It is with deep regret that I must resign immediately from the OFB board of directors due to health reasons,” Emmons wrote in his letter of resignation. “Unfortunately, I can no longer serve district four, which Freda (his wife) and I have enjoyed so very much. “Farm Bureau has been a part of Freda’s and mine lives for many decades and we will continue to participate as much as the Good Lord allows,” his letter concluded. “I have nothing but respect for Orville,” said Drake. “ He resigned and nominated me. He didn’t feel he could continue. I thank him for all his years of service to the county and state Farm Bureaus.” Drake was appointed to fill the remainder of Emmons’ three-year term, which expires this November. Emmons served as district four director, representing Farm Bureau members in Comanche, Cotton, Stephens,

Bob Drake Jefferson, Murray, Carter, Love, Johnston and Marshall counties. “I will serve through November and then I will run for a three-year term. I look forward to meeting those Farm Bureau members I don’t know and making the annual meetings in my district,” he said. Drake and his brother, Tom, have owned

Orville Emmons and operated Drake Farms in Murray County since 1964, succeeding their father who established it in 1941. Drake’s son, Tom, now is involved in the family corporation that operates one of Oklahoma’s most prominent Angus ranches. The 63-year-old farmer-rancher has held prominent leadership roles in many agricul-

tural-related organizations. He served as president of the Oklahoma Cattlemen’s Association and was president of the National Cattlemen’s Association in 1995. Drake currently serves as chairman of the National Grazinglands Association, a national organization that provides technical assistance to producers with grazing land concerns. He also sits as chairman of Oklahoma’s International Trade Development Council and recently was named co-chairman of the state’s Eastern Red Cedar Task Force. “I am familiar with politics, both state and national. I think Farm Bureau has the most sincere, honest, hard working and dedicated people I’ve ever dealt with. I think farmers are over worked, under paid and under appreciated. I like anything I can do to help farmers. It is an honor to have the opportunity to serve,” he concluded. Drake and his wife, Kay, who is a homemaker, attend the First United Methodist Church in Davis. They have two adult children, Joe, 40, and Whitney Drake, 38, who is an attorney in California. Drake is a military veteran, serving six years in the U.S. Army after completing his bachelor’s degree in business management and finance from the University of Oklahoma in 1961.

Farm bill provides producers flexibility plus safety net (Continued from Page 1) $50 million for rural fire departments. Those living outside incorporated city limits will appreciate the resulting improvements in both services,” he explained. Another area of concern Oklahoma Farm Bureau pushed to have covered in the new legislation was addressing impending problems faced by small watersheds. “There are less than 3,000 small watersheds in the U.S., and some 2,000 of those are in Oklahoma. Two-thirds of those in our state are over 50 years old. “They have reached the end of their estimated life. It is essential that we rebuild them,” Rich said. “The new farm bill provides $250 million for rehabilitation of these small watersheds. “Now,” he declared, “what we need is prompt implementation of the bill so producers will know the rules and regulations under which they must operate.” USDA Secretary Ann Veneman, admitting it will be a formidable task, said the agency is working hard to implement the bill in a timely manner. Rich said the new farm bill establishes increased loan rates, continues direct payments and creates a counter-cyclical program that assists when commodity prices dip below set levels. The new safety net programs combined with direct payments and marketing loan gains are meant to eliminate the need for ad hoc emergency economic assistance in the

future, and insulate farmers from the volatility of the agricultural economy. “It gives producers flexibility plus a safety net. This probably is as good a farm bill as we could get,” he said. The bill also provides the largest investment in conservation ever (more than $17 billion), 80 percent above the level of the 1996 bill. Producers will be rewarded for maintaining and increasing farm and ranch stewardship practices. Rich said livestock producers will be able to share in the conservation provisions by using

11¢/Lb. (per year quota buyout for 5 years)

the Environmental Quality Incentive Program (EQIP). It is a program where USDA shares the costs of conservation efforts with livestock producers. They can receive up to $450,000 in cost share over the six-year farm bill. The $1.3 billion annual funding is split 60-40 between livestock and crop producers. The measure also includes a two-year voluntary country-of-origin labeling program that becomes mandatory in the third year. The compromise version eliminated a provision banning packer ownership, which proponents felt would solve profitability problems in the

cattle industry. Rich said a provision particularly important to Oklahoma producers, loan deficiency payments for graze-out wheat, oats, barley and triticale, was included in the final bill. Producers also are allowed to update their base acres and yield base. “There was a major change in the peanut program,” he said. “Peanuts have operated on a different program for several years where there was a quota system. This is being eliminated, and there will be a quota buyout of 11 cents per pound for five years.” The dairy program also underwent change. This will be the first time that a national dairy program will be in place. It will provide financial assistance to dairymen on an equitable basis in a counter-cyclical type program similar to other commodity programs. “While criticism of the farm bill has surfaced, this new bill is the strongest yet in terms of conservation and benefits for the environment. Those who criticize must remember that consumers reap many benefits from a strong farm policy,” Rich concluded. “Good farm policy means a high quality, stable and economical food supply that takes less of the consumers’ dollar than anywhere in the world. “As for its cost, the farm bill authorization amounts to approximately 1 percent of the total national budget over the next 10 years. That’s a pretty reasonable investment to feed us, protect our environment and keep families on their farms.”

Rancher sends eight elk to state wildlife management area By Mike Nichols Amid the low drone of video cameras rolling and a cast of substantially less than thousands, eight elk from Sam Withiam’s Timberline Ranch near Cushing were herded into waiting transports for the ride to the Pushmataha Wildlife Management Area near Clayton. The “March Madness” of that Tuesday on Withiam’s pristine 1,200-acre ranch marked the culmination of weeks of work with the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation and the Safari Club International. It was captured on video for showing on a segment of public television’s Outdoor Oklahoma program. “We originally brought elk into the Pushmataha Wildlife Management Area in the ’60s and ’70s from the Wichita Mountains,” said Jack Waymier, senior biologist for the area. “The herd has been built up to 40 plus animals. But they became an encapsulated herd with over 32 years of inbreeding and there were some genetic problems developing.” Waymier said his department contacted the Safari Club with a proposal to introduce new elk into the herd since the state did not have funds available to restock the area. “The Safari Club funding was only $12,000. He pretty much gave us the elk. We were lucky to find Sam,” said Waymier. “They wanted two bulls and two or three cows,” said Withiam, a Payne County Farm Bureau member. “We gave them more animals.” Withiam began his operation in 1972, stocking it with elk from a National Park. His herd now stands at about 400 animals, and will grow by more than one-third when calves arrive this summer. Timberline animals are acclimated to Oklahoma weather, certified disease free by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and closely monitored. Animals from the ranch are recognized internationally for antler growth and fertility. “We have done everything in our power to be a good

The eight elk Withiam sent to the wildlife area definitely should improve the gene pool. “They’re the best we have,” he said, “the genetics we sent them.” The three three-year-old herd bulls were sired by the ranch’s top bull, an animal which has sired three international antler champions, and one other bull which has topped all others in the U.S. and Canada. The cows have impressive genetics, with international champions in their lineage. The cows were artificially inseminated, and should add another five calves to the Pushmataha area’s herd

this summer. “We got a real thrill out of sending those animals down there,” said Withiam. “We were trying to do something we felt was positive for the state.” Before the elk left Timberline Ranch, Waymier said two of the bulls and four cows were outfitted with transmitters. “We’re tracking them everyday,” he said. “The new animals are mixing with the existing herd.” The tracking devices are valuable since the Pushmataha Wildlife Management Area itself covers nearly 20,000 acres. But Waymier said there are about one million acres of timberland in southeastern Oklahoma where the elk herd can roam. “The elk go as they please,” he said. “We’ve got some good landowners in the area. They watch the herd and let us know where it is.” “We were glad to see our animals were accepted,” said Withiam. “They can fend for themselves. Their survival skills have not been bred out. They really are dynamic animals. We do feel the release was positive.” Waymier said in addition to improving the genetics of the herd, the additional animals eventually will allow the state to increase the number of permits it issues for hunting elk in the area. “I want to keep the elk herd going,” he said. “People enjoy viewing it and the introduction of new animals eventually should allow an increase in the number of permits for hunters.” Withiam also is interested in building the wildlife population in the state, specifically the elk herd. He says elk were native in Oklahoma and North America at one time, and only man and predators sent the animals into the rugged areas of the Rocky Mountains. “Hunting is a billion dollar industry,” said Withiam, who admits he is “toying” with the idea of opening a hunting preserve. “I would like to build wildlife in Oklahoma. You just give them a chance down in those mountains.”

Prescription drug program users rack up big savings The newest addition to Oklahoma Farm Bureau’s service-to-member program, the ScriptSave prescription drug discount plan, has allowed users to save almost $300,000 since being instituted in September 2001. It gives instant point-of-sale savings on prescription medication purchases — on both brand name and generic prescription drugs — to everyone in a member’s household. ScriptSave, founded in 1994, is America’s premier member-only health and wellness enhancement program with its primary focus on prescription and non-prescription drug savings. It offers unlimited use and immediate discounts with no claim forms to file. OFB members received ScriptSave discount cards when the program was instituted. The cards are free to OFB members, and there are no enrollment fees. Members who may have misplaced their ScriptSave card are advised to use their OFB membership card at participating pharmacies. Information on the back side of the card verifies a member’s eligibility for the ScriptSave program. The program has an extensive network of participating pharmacies in Oklahoma. Many independent pharmacies accept the ScriptSave card as well as recognized chains such as Eckerd, K-Mart, Osco, Target and Albertsons. A list of participating pharmacies in the state can be viewed on the OFB web site at www.okfarmbureau.org. Look under the member benefits section and the information can be found in the discount buyer card program. County Farm Bureau offices also have a list of pharmacies that serve their members. Since the program began in Oklahoma, OFB members have saved $270,469.69 on more than 25,000 prescriptions. The average saving per prescription filled was more than

$9.50, some 20 percent less than others paid. Nationally, total member savings reached more than $130 million in 2001, up 45 percent over the previous year. More than 15 million prescriptions were filled using the program’s discount card in 2001, which also was up 30 percent from the previous year. ScriptSave offers members a best price guarantee, which assures them that they are paying the lowest price on available prescription purchases. If a pharmacy puts a medication on special and the price is less than the negotiated ScriptSave price, the OFB member always pays the lowest cost. “This is not an insurance program,” said

Kathy McNally, coordinator of OFB’s FB Card program. “It is a discount program that works to save our members money on prescription purchases. “All an OFB member must do is to take their prescription and ScriptSave card to the participating pharmacist. The prescription will be processed electronically and our member will pay the discounted price.” “Access to affordable prescriptions has become a national problem,” said ScriptSave chairman and CEO Charlie Horn. “I’m very proud that ScriptSave has continued its leadership providing a private sector solution to bring significant prescription savings to those

ODA vet cautions horse owners about West Nile virus By Mike Nichols A state veterinarian with the Oklahoma Department of Agriculture says horse owners should consider having their animals vaccinated against the West Nile virus, a severe form of equine encephalitis. “It probably is a good idea to get them vaccinated,” advised Dr. Carey Floyd, a state veterinarian who works in the equine area. “We feel like we will see it in Oklahoma.” West Nile virus is carried by mosquitoes. The insects contract the virus when they feed on infected birds and can spread it to horses, and also to humans. She said crows and blue jays as well as many raptors carry the West Nile virus. A horse bitten by an infected mosquito that becomes infected with the form of encephalitis will have symptoms manifested through central nervous system problems. Dr. Floyd said the animals usually exhibit a wobbly walk, staggering, walking “funny” on their hind legs and not being able to get up if they go to the ground. Dr. Floyd said the presence of the West Nile virus already has been confirmed in Louisiana and Arkansas, and officials also believe it has shown up in Missouri and Iowa. She said officials are monitoring dead birds that are known carriers of the disease in an effort to determine if it has made its way into the avian carrier population in the Oklahoma. “We’ve not had a case certified” in Oklahoma so far, she said. However, the veterinarian said the disease, which first appeared in the northeastern part of the nation in 1999, is moving faster than

officials anticipated. Officials felt it would be five or six years before it would spread as far west as it has already. “Vaccination, by far, is the best choice,” Dr. Floyd said. Only licensed veterinarians may administer the vaccine to horses. The vaccine has conditional approval, but efficacy results are not available. Dr. Floyd said for that reason only veterinarians may administer the shots, and they record the identity of each animal vaccinated. “It is a fairly expense vaccine,” she said. “It is going to vary. You have a lot of prices.” On average, the total cost should be about $20 per horse for the vaccine. That covers both vaccinations, which should be administered in a three- to six-week interval. Dr. Floyd said officials in Florida have reported that immunity is not developed consistently until after 30 days following the second shot, and said since that result has been experienced Oklahoma horse owners should have their animals vaccinated now. The vaccinations usually prove more cost effective than treating horses infected the virus. Partial recovery is possible, but Dr. Floyd said there is a 30 percent mortality rate for horses that contract the West Nile virus. “I encourage them to vaccinate. We do have eastern encephalitis (a less severe form). It’s fairly common in Oklahoma. It (vaccination for West Nile) should be a part of their regular program,” she said.
