Join the Capital Press "Newspaper in Education" program


Join the Capital Press "Newspapers in Education" program. The Capital Press is THE agriculture oriented newspaper, serving farms and ranches in Washington, Oregon, Idaho and California.

From page 29, of the March 17, 2006 Capital Press:

"Just imagine how difficult it would be to explain the realities of farming and ranching to today's high school students. That's a challenge that only a few brave and dedicated teachers are willing to accept. For those special teachers, we offer an aid. Weekly issues of Capital Press, the west's leading agricultural publication, can be sent to their classrooms via the Newspaper in Education program. Capital Press, and benefactors like you, sponsor the subscriptions that teach students about real-life issues affecting rural and urban families today. Those students are tomorrow's employees, customers and voters. Wouldn't you like them to better understand your business?

For as little as $20 per school year you can supply a classroom with a weekly issue of Capital Press ($200 for ten copies per week). It's a gift that may be tax deductible and a solid investment in the future of agriculture. Call 1-800-882-6789 for details."

Thanks for helping to pass the word about the Newspapers In Education program.

Obviously, we think it is important for students in Oregon and throughout the West to understand more about the agriculture industry, which is so important to the economy of so many of our cities, counties and communities.
