100000 and $ol 800, 900 in 1919.
The grand total value of all the
agricultural products in California
in 1922 was 1897, 100000; $343,827,-
900 in 1921, and $4S9,l10,000 in
1920, and $5Gl,074,000 in 1919.
The farm labor supply in the
State was sufficient in most eases
during 1929. However, there was
4 deficiency noted in several see
tions, but not of sufficiently long
duration to seriously affect any
crop. There were a few complaints
of inefficiency in farm labor, but
on the whole conditions compared
very favorably with the previous
year.
Weather conditions had n very
important effect on the 1922 crops
A severe freeze in January caused
considerable damage TO the vege-
table and citrus crops. As a result
of this freeze the citrus crop was
reduced to about 6S per cent of Il
normal. There will also he sub
normal crop in 1928. 1t viii pro
baby take two or three years for
citrus groves to fully recover from
the 1928 freeze.
As result OF low temperatures
the deciduous fruit season was from
two to three weeks later than usu-
al. In fact, lateness of season was
noticeable in nearly all the fruits.
With temperatures slightly below
normal during April and May, and
the absence of heavy winds, wheat
and barley both filled better than
usual, and the best average yield
of wheat per acre in the history
Of the State was the result. High
temperatures during September
caused some injury TO cotton in the
Imperial Valley, to the walnut
crop in the southern part of the
State, and to beans throughout the
entire State.
In spite of climatic handieaps
California experienced a very sue
eessful crop year, with good re-
turns to the growers, and good
prospects for another successful
season.
