Mr. McCall states that hi.; c'vision does not want to discourage any one from growing vegetables en a commercial scale, but he docs v.-ant the grower to fir t familarize himself with the habits of the plant, the cultural method: required, the preparation for market, and the market requirements of the crop before attempting to &~*ow it in a commercial way. He should also have some knowledge as to a possible outlet before undertaking to grow too large an acreage at fir>t. The Division of Horticulture will do all within its power to assist any who attempt the growing of vegetables but the growers must hold their acreages within those limits which can be advnntagI eously handled. | grandview items Our B.

IBH Friday, January PROSPECTS FOR AGRICULTURE DURING lHH| a JHH New Year's Statement and Reifl^^^ of Agricvlaural conditions Prospects from Secretary of A^^^| culture Wallace. Twelve months ago most of six million formers of the Unite^^^f States were starting on the long har^^Hj climb out of the valley of econor depression. They have not- yet1 ta <1 1 he ]-.ci'.:ht; which are bath'^^BB in the grateful shine of prosper? ^BEg Scir.c, indeed, have fallen by t way. Others are still in the vailNevertheless, as we stop a bit t look backward we can see that V |yrv?~F considerable gruL.'d has been *^^HE9 ed by the great ma.ority, and* enter the New Year with re ^B9n9| hope and with that courage come from the realization 11 are really making progress. % A year ago, when speaking prospects for farm,:ig in 1922, I H said that while there was no roa- U son to expect boom times for the ^H farmer in the near future, there was ^H promise of better times, both for MS the farmer and for those whose bus!ncss is largely dependent upon him. pi The year has brought fulfillment of l|| that promise. Speaking generally. Mp times are better, much better, a year ago, both for agriculture S^^HH for industry. ^H||||| Crops hr.ve been good, on whole. Prices of the major croJ^Ra! are mostly considerably higher. Whlll^H there has been a corresponding ad-^HR vance in the prices of the things the^H I farmer must buy the total sum of which farmers will receive for the V crops of this year is greater by a I billion and n half dollars or more jmm than that which they received fi QB their crops of last year. This vr. HUB certainly mean better times on th^Ei farm, and farm folks will be ab^^H to ea?e up a little on the grindU^HR j economy they were forced to prac^E| ! ticc the preceding year. |H The labor cost of producing tk<^H 1 rrnns f?f 10?>?) ?*J1I I ? ?!'? ? <-" "t.o sun iui viivi | duced. There were some substan-^H J tial reductions in freight rates. MuelHH - helpful legislation has been cnact^^B ' ed and more will be this winter. In-^H terest rates are lower and the crcd^H it strain has been eased. This hai^Hi made possible for many farmers wht^fljl were rather heavily involved to re-^HI fund their obligations and get them-^H selves in condition to win through. MB There arc still some dark spot&^H In some sections weather conditions^H were unfavorable and crops were^H short, and farmers in these sections^! are having a hard time of it. Freight rates are still to high, especially for^| those who mu =t pay for a long haul ^ to market. JHBSHH Taxes are high, but this is largely I due to the increase in local taxet;. over which farmers themselves must J exercise control.
