cate that the crop acreage this year will be about the same as last years. with some decrease possible. Nearly all crops of 1920 were produced at top-notch cost, and prices of potatoes. hay and some other products are So low that farmers say they are uncertain as 10 what they should plant and SOW much of this year.
 A heavy ca=ry-oyer of 1920 sweet Norn and uncertainty as 10 future prices are causing canners to defer contracting their 1921 acreage at prices demanded by the farmers and a much smaller acreage in that crop now seems likely. A good apple crop is expected. The season for maple sugar in New Hampshire and Vermont and western Massachusetts has been somewhat unsatisfactory and prices of suga rand syrup are down 90 much from last year that fewer trees have been tapped
 Peach prospects have been considered excellent. although some uncertainty was felt at the time the reports were sent as 10 the effect of the recent cold snap on the budding trees.
 The acreage of tobacco as well aa of Connecticut valley onions is expected 10 | decrease somewhat. perhaps 3 to per | cent. according to reports. The hay acreage is considered likely to gain slightly. notwithstanding that the open winter and hard frosts lately have been bad for meadows and pastures.
 What farmers want most" concluded Mir. Sanders, "is the establishment of a new and equitable balance in prices of their products compared with prices of what they must buy. They feel that prices of tools and machinery are so high as to be Drohibitive. while fertilizer prices are yet higher than they should be. Re- tail prices of many other supplies they buy remain disproportionateiy high. Team work on the rart of all lines of business is. needed to smoot bout their difficult
 ties"
