PROSPECTS FOR AGRI-
CULTURE IN 1928
New Years Statement and Resume
of Agricultural Conditions
and Prospects.

Twelve months ago most of the six
m'llion farmers of the United States
were starting on the long, hard climb
out of the valley Of economic depres-
sion. They have not yet attained the
heights which are bathed in the
grateful sunshine of prosperity
Some, indeed, have fallen by the way.
Others are still in the valley. Never
theless as We stop bit and look
backward we can see that very con-
siderable ground has been gained by
the great majority, and we can en-
ter the New Year with renewed hope
and with that courage which comes
from the realization that we are real
ly making progress.
A year ago when speaking of the
prospects for farming in 1922, l said
that while there was no reason to ex-
pect boom times for the farmer in the
near future, there was promise of
better times, both for the farmer and
for those whose business is largely
dependent upon him. The year has
brought fufillment of that promise.
Speaking generally, times are better,
much better, than year ago, both
for agriculture and for industry.
Crops have been good, on the whole.
Prices of the major crops are most
ly considerably higher. While there
has been a corresponding advance in
the prices of the things the farmer
must buy, the total sum which farm
ers will receive for the crops of this
year is greater by a billion and a
half dollars or more than that which
they received for the crops of last
year. This will certainly mean better
times on the farm, and farm folks will
be able to ease up little on the
grinding economy they were forced
to practice the preceding year.
The labor cost of producing the
crops of 1922 was still further re-
duced. There were some substantial
reductions in freight rates. Much
helpful legislation has been enacted
and more will be this winter. Inter
est rates are lower and the credit
strain has been eased. This has made
it possible for many farmers who
were rather heavily involved to re-
fund their obligations and get them
selves in condition to win through.
There are still some dark spots. In
some sections weather conditions
were unfavorable and crops were
short and farmers in these sections
are having a very hard time of it.
Freight rates are still too high, es-
pecially for those who must pay for
long haul to market.
Taxes are high, but this is largely
due to increase in local taxes, over
which the farmers themselves must
exercise control.
There has been gratifying growth
in farmers cooperative marketing as
sociations, and more of them are be-
ing organized on sound business
basis.
Aside from the help which has been
given by legislation and by admins
tration activities, strong economic
forces are at work to restore more
normal relation between agriculture
and other industries.
The peril in the agricultural de-
preston is more keenly realized by
other groups than ever before, and
on every hand sincere desire is be-
ing evidenced to do what can be done
safely to help the farmer better his
condition.
Everything considered, we have
good reason to expect still better
