Considering the fact that eleven years ago,

In each day Of the year 1909 American sol
was able to bring forth raw products worth on
the average in the market s24O00.000 to the
farmer Most prosperous Of all years is the
place to which 1909 is entitled in agriculture
says Secretary Wilson The buried talent il
this case seems to have earned its increment.
What the fields, stock farms and gardens Of

Comparing the increase of 100 per cent in the

seem at first blush if the bounty of food

dents of economy, however declare that the
average American has a expensive appe-

this fact. the farmer is receiving money
for his products than formerly.
Even taking into consideration Costlier habits
of living and higher prices, the stupendOus crops
of the year 1909 show Concusively that the
sources of Americas agriculture far from
being drained and that husbandman and house
holder alike need never fear famine provided
they pay the price demanded by the
