dicated in the final report just re-
leased by Julius H. Jacobson, Of the
Idaho crop reporting service. 1t is
splendid record made by the farmers
in spite of the most severe drought
in thirty years. Higher prices re-
ceived for practically all crops were
offset by the failure of a large acre
age of spring grains and sugar beets,
SO that the above aggregate value is
less than the revised total OF $ll5,-

with $225OO. In 1918 sugar beet seed
outclasses all other crops in point Of
acre value, returning a total OF $3Oo
Potatoes occupy second place with ar
acre value of $l49.8s.
The total acreage devoted to four
