MARYLAND FARM STATE.
Agricultural Department Shows Great
Progress.

In the great staple crOps-corn,
wheat, hay and rye-Maryland j. max
ing substantial progress from year TO
year, and annually the farmers OF
that State are becoming more pro-
gressive, according to Secretary OF
Agriculture Wilson and his assistants
in the crop review of the year 1911,
which gives special attention to the
Maryland farmer.
The review, also discloses the facts
that in dairy and truck farm products
Maryland has made strides in the
past IL months equaled by few other
States in proportion to population. In
cattle raising and the production OF
wool the State il taking higher
rank with each year, while in truck
farming the proximity Of its counties
to the large centres of population is
giving this industry higher rank each
year.
Over $4,000 acres were in corn
last year, an increase OF 10000 acres
over 1910. The crop OF 1911 was val
ued at $15,407,000, or more than ST.
100000 greater than that of 1910. The
production of corn during 1911 was
24,455,000 bushels, as compared to
22,110,000 bushels in the previous
year.
The wheat area of 1911 was fir e
cess of 605,000 acres, as compared to
a little over 100000 acres in 1910, the
value of the crop being $9,378,000 a
slight decrease from the value Of the
1910 crop due to a general decline
i'm the price.
Nearly 4O7 1000 bushels OF rye was
Maryland's production from the 2S,-
900 acres utilized for that staple last
year. The value of the rye croh ap-
proximated $349,00O.
Among the Is States producing
buck-wheat Maryland ranks sixth.
Last year 10000 acres we're sown,
which produced over 100000 bushels
Of value Of $4,000, a. against H.
900 bushels in 1910.
Maryland farmers had $4,000 acres
in potatoes in 1911, the yield amount
ing to 1,755,000 bushels, Of value OF
$1,597, 00O The value Of the crop Of
last year per acre was not a. high a.
in 1910, but the acreage was larger
by over 2,700
Over 10000 tons Of hay, worth S4,-
45S,000, was produced from 276,OO0
acres last year, the value per ton be-
ing below that of 1910, although the
entire product was estimated to be
worth $134,O0O more, because of the
increase in acreage.
