These figures show that of South
crn crops, such as sugar, rice, tobac-
co and sweet potatoes, the average
value per acre was very far III excess
of the average of wheat, oats, corn
and hay, which are the staple crops
of other sections. Against 81 as the
average for wheat, the South cot
ton crop averaged Sl5 per acre. If
the question he raised that 81 per
acre for wheat and SS for corn are
less than the average in the Central
West wheat and corn-grOwing re-
gions, where these are the staple
crops, it may he said in reply that
SIS per acre is far less than the
average of cotton in the more fertile
and better-cultivated cotton lands
of the South.

Acreage Value of Southern Crops.

The strength of the Southern agri-

comparison of the value Of crops per

Though the value of agricultural
products has very largely increased
since then, the relative valuations
per acre are about the same, and
these official figures illustrate the
possibilities of the South as COM
