Therefore, in selling to cash buyers or in consign ing for sale in the large mar kets it is essential that quali ty be good, grading uniform, and the appearance of the package attractive both to the trade and to the ultimate buy er, if we are to get the best possible returns. Many changes in marketing conditions have taken place during the past ten or fifteen years. I am wondering if the growers in the Carolinas and Virginia have kept up with these changea and are suc cessfully meeting the new con ditions. The day has long since pas sed when our strawberries, let tuce, spinach, potatoes, cantal oupes and other crops were welcomed on eastern markets as luxuries to Tbe paid for at luxury prices. The produce grown in this section is now forced to activly compete with produce from many States in the Union and from foreign countries. All of the standard vegetables are now to be found in any large city market at all times during the year. This condition is making it difficult for the average and below the average grower to make a liv ing out of a business that for merly netted good returns, fault, I believe that all grow Without intending to find ers need an exact knowledge of the details which should be observed in growing and pre paring each crop for market; and further than this the com munity and section should bear a reputation for selling good produce and for observing hon est business methods. The in dividual grower standing alone no matter how experienced, is working under serious handi caps if his lot is placed in a community where growers and shippers are careless in ob serving the niceties of present day market demands. Through cooperative effort only, in the opinion of the writer, will the growers of highly perishable crops ever be able to success fully meet the competition of the many highly organized truck growing and marketing districts that are now scattered over the United States. In referring to the changes to‘l>e expedited during the next quarter of a century a recent writer had the following to say: There are those who think the day of the small grower is about over. Those who hold this belief think that produc tion in the near future will largely be under the control of large operators who can use labor-saving machinery and other means of reducing the cost of production. It is our opinion that we are passing into a period of the survival of the fittest; that the grower who can produce the best quality products most, ec onomically and can place them on the market to best advan tage and in the most attractive and pleasing form will be the one who will survive, be he a large or a small operator.” It has been said: “The stan dardization of perishable pro ducts is ont of the most essen tial problems confronting all growers of these products. “If this view is correct, how are we going to arrive at any stan dard except by working toge ther? It has also been stated: “It is a well recognized fact that every section of the country which is forced to do a ship ping business is making an ef fort all of the time to improve their grading and packing so that their goods will sell read^ ily in competition with those from other sections of the country.” c This statement may be true of some sections, and no doubt it is, but it is untrue of many truck growing communities in the Southeast where a full realization of market demands has not yet been accepted. And the proper appreciation is dis played by shippers and grow ers of the ever growing demand for high quality products with more and more emphasis be mnrm I STOMACH OR DUODENAL JULCERS.

WITH exports ot pork and lard from the United States still re maining at a low level, a large in crease in hog production is not war ranted at this time, according to offi cials of the Agricultural Adjustment Administration. Exports of pork from tha United States showed a slightly upward trend in 1934, but this was offset by a decline in ex ports in lard. Annual shipments abroad remain at about three-fourths ot a billion pounds, as compared with nearly two billion pounds in the early post-war period. The de cline during the ten years from 1923 to 1932, as indicated by the »*sya graph, has been equlftfient to about nine mUUen hogs. Great Britain, the principal mar ket for pork products, continues to restrict pork shipments from non empire countries, including the United States, by means of import quotas. Germany, second ranking buyer of bog products, limited monthly lard Imports in 1934 to 40 per cent of the volume imported during the corresponding months of 1931-33, and during the latter part of the year imposed restrictions on conversion of German money into foreign exchange that caused fur ther redactions in lard imports. The 1935 corn-hog production con trol program new being offered by tfcs Agricultural Adjustment Admin istration is designed to help farmers keep hog numbers in line with the current low level of export trade. ing placed on proper grading and packing, we will not be ad equately catering to the pre ference of the consumers of today. Standardization and Wider Distribution, should be the slo gan and ambition of vegetable growers and shippers in Vir ginia and the Carolinas. WASHINGTON NEWS FOR U. S. FARMERS (Continued from Page 2) der seal as collateral for gov ernment loans. The “culling” of cattle herds by government purchases in the drought area has placed the industry in an extremely favorable position although still a long ways from becom ing prosperdus. When the books closed on government buying it was found thatt 8,156,322 animals had been bought at an average price of $13.50 a head. The re moval of these animals, most of them of the poorer type, brought down the inventory to approximately 57,000,000, or about the same as 1900, 1912 and 1928. Millions of trees will be] planted this Spring in thej Great Plains shelter belt pro-j ject. According to Federal of ficials the government will, plant 4,000,000 trees in six States, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Ok lahoma and Texas. In addition, it is reported,| Minnesota is working on its own shelter belt program and farmers in Wisconsin plan a five-year schedule, calling for setting out 10,000,000 trees.
