adds, "but prosperity followed and
grew with unexampled speed. Begin.
nings have been made in production
natural increase of population. There
has been an uplift of agriculture and
of country life.
During the past sixteen yeays the
farmer has steadily increased the
wealth production year by year, with
the exception of 1911. During the six
teen years the farmers wealth produc-
tion increased 141 per cent.
Most productive of all agricultural
years in the country has been 1912.
The earth has produced its greatest
annual dividend. The sun and rain
and the fertility of the soil needed not
the human controversies, but kept Oh
working in cooperation with the farm
ers' efforts to untilize them. The
prices at the farm are generally prof
liable and will continue the prosperity
that farmers have enjoyed in recent
years. The total production of farm
wealth is the highest yet reached by
half billion dollars. The grand total
for 1912 is estimated to be $9,532,0O0,.
600. This is more than twice the val
ue of the farm wealth in 1890"
More than 5,000,000,00O is the
grand total of farm wealth production.
the report says. during the past six
teen years, an amount equal to about
three quarters Of the present national
wealth.
The most effective move toward re-
duced cost of living is the production
of greater crops. says the secretary,
and this move he declares is due to
the work of the Department of Agri-
cultural colleges and experiment sta.
tions and to the help of the press in
publishing every movement to help
the farmers. The nation, he adds, for
got It's farmers in the general scheme
of education of past years and few
philanthropists thought of them when
giving for education, but they are wax
irg up and thinking for themselves
and Cogress has been good to them.

man nor by few men. choice crop
Of scholarly experts In their special
