SMALL FRUITS BRING
PROSPERITY in BRITAIN

London, CA. P.)-"Many men who
ten years ago were farm laborers now
drive their own motorcarS."
That sounds like an extract from a
story about California or some other
American state where farmers some
times make a lot of money. But it
isn't It is taken from repOr. Of
the big profits made in Hampshire,
Kent, Lincolnshire and q few other
counties of this old land by farmers
who raise fruits and particularly
strawberier. Such tales are not of
ten heard in England. English farm
ers, as a rule, take more delight in
telling tales of woe than of well~being
Giving details of this agricultural
prosperity, the report says: "ln one
case a man cut up a field of Is acres
in acre plots and offered it to the la
borers of the parish. He had ar
ranged the payment to extend over
ten years, but nine of the 15 purchas-
ers paid for it on the spot. Within
four years all the rest paid up. One
of them during the last three years
has sold 1000 pounds worth of straw
berries from his one acre plot.
''It is not to strawberries alone that
such men turn their attention. They
make good profits out of piums, ap-
pies, cherries, gooseberries and cur
rents.
Sat the time of the great agricul-
tural depression Gladstone suggested
that farmers should grow fruit in
stead of corn. His suggestion was
received with scorn and derisiOn by
the old fashioned farmers. One man,
however, thought the experiment
worth trying. He has retired with a
large fortune Hundreds of others
are now following in his footsteps.

Bumper Crops and Advancing Prices
D1spel GloOm-Prosperity Now
Actually Around the
Corner.

Iowa farmers find themselves at
least lO4 per cent better off than
they We're a year ago, according to
the report of a special committee
appointed by the Des Moines Ad
club to investigate farm conditions.
The lO4 per cent, they state, rep
resents the increased value of the
farm crops as a whole in 1922,
compared with the values for 1921.
In other words the dollar crop
income of 1921 has swelied 20
$2.04 in 1922.
This has been made possible by
larger crops and higher prices, the
committee states.
Iowa's 455,000,000 bushel corn
crop is the best quality corn ever
raised in the Hawkeye state, ac-
cording to agricultural experts, and
for the first time in history this
corn has advanced steadily in price
from the day when Iowa farmers
began TO husk their corn late in
September.
Farmers on an average today
are receiving about II cents a
bushel more for corn than they did
sixty days ago, and about lbs per
cent more per bushel than new
corn was worth year ago.
While the farm prices for corn are
now quoted at SO cents to 65 cents.
Dean Charles F. Curtis of the Iowa
State College of Agriculture, has
made a statement to the press in
which he predicts Is cent corn for
Iowa II ..-.a near futule.
Better than this, however, is the
fact that the estimates 9f the value
OF this corn fed to hogs at present
prices is $1.09 per bushel, the COM
mittee declares.
Estimates of the value of this corn
fed to thin steers, poultry and lambs
run from 81 bushel up 10 $3.50 a
bushel.
Oats today on Iowa farms are
worth go TO 70 per cent more than
they were year ago. Many otner
nGnfpduots are proportionately more
liable. than they were a year
ago, they assert. All crops have
been abundant-fruits, vegetables,
grain and grasses.

in Iowa state and savings banks
and trust companies, not including
national banks, have increased So
100000, an increase of 100000
day.
1t is estimated that the increase
in national banks would bring this
total up to $4,000 to $175,OOC
daily.
The last state bank call in Iowa
Oct. 81, shows an increase Of more
than S32,000,000 in state and saw
ing bank deposits as compares
with the statement Of Oct. 81, 1921
the committee declares.
All legitimate agricultural anC
business propositions can now easil!
be financed. Inside of fourteen
months, including the year 1921
Iowa banks reduced their indebted
ness to the Federal Reserve bank
from S9S,O00,000 to $25,000,0 00-thi:
through the period called "hart
times" the committee members point
out.
Bank deposits in the state ant
savings banks alone are approaching
the $600,000,000 mark now and there
is good prospect of the record O.
Nov. /, 1920, when $620,000,0O0 WA
was on deposit being reached, ac
cording 10 the ad club committee.
