FOR
1928 FARMING
Secretary of Agriculture Wal
lace Gives Out a New Years
Statement and Resume OF
Agricultural Conditions and
the Prospects for 1928 AS
Seen by His Agents All Over
the Country. Bright Out
look in Most Sections for
This Year.

Twelve months ago most of the
six million farmers of the United
states were starting on the long,
hard climb out of the valley Of eco
nomic depression. They have not
vet attained the heights which are
bathed in the grateful sunshine of
prosperity. Some, indeed, have fall
len by the way. Others are still in.
the valley. Nevertheless, as we stop
bit and look backward we can see
that very considerable ground has
been gained by the great majority,
and we can enter the Ney Year with
renewed hope and with that courage
which comes from the realization
that we are really making progress.
A year ago, when speaking of the
prospects for farming in 1922, 1 said
that while there was no reason to
expect 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 fulfillment 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 mostly
considerably higher. While there has
been a corresponding advance in the
prices of the things the farmer must
buy the total sum which farmers will
-eive for the crops of this year is
: ter by billion and a half dollars
more than that which they re-
ceived 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 grind
ing economy they were forced to
practice the preceding year.
The labor cost Of producing the /
crops OF 1922 was stiIl further re-
5uced. There were some substantial
ia freight rates. Much I
helpful legislation has been enacted
ana more will be this winter Interest
'ates are lower and the credit strain
las been eased. This has made it
possible for many formers who were
afher heavily involved % refund
