You may tell the world that South
Dakota is working in that direction
very rapidly.
There was a decrease of stock hogs
in the United States in 1923 of about
100000 head, but South Dakota
comes up smiling with an increase OF
$4,000 head. Our dairy COWS have in
creased in number from 100000 IN
1927 to 455,0OO il 1923, a gain OF
$4,000.
South Dakota as a whole is new
state, and sparscly settled. The III
fmencc Of the "fand boom reached
over but little more than a third OF
her area Land prices in two-thirds
OF the state never reached fictitious
figure. Over this vast area there j.
still room for a substantial increase
in land values based only on the pro.
ductive capacity Of the soil.
South Dakota is one Of the few az
ricultural regions in the middle west
III which the price of land is still low
enough so that the product of an av.
erage season will allow q reasonable
return of interest on the investment
after paying all other expenses. Many
instances are known in the central
and western parts of the state where
a single crop of flax, corn or alfalfa
seed has brought more than the re
cent cost Of the land
With the dcrser settlement of this
territory will come increasing land
values. The farmer of large part OF
South Dakota has his unearned in
cgement" still to come to him, us well
as the returns from his constantly in
creasing yearly production.
He may have had hard experience
but there is no question but that he
will work out, and do so much soCne'
than the farmer in states farther east
There boom land values and wal
prices fostered the incur1ing of great

is not in an ideal position, by any
means, he is much better of than

THE AGRICULTURAL
OUTLOOK IN 50. OAK.

Some people have feared that re-
cent bank troubles III certain parts of
South Dakota portend a general col
lapse of our business and financial in.
stitutions. We have had some bank
failures, but not more than other
AGRICULTURAL regions in the middle
west where conditions are similar.
1t jars a schoolboy to have the
chair drawn out from under him just
after he has been asked to take Il seat
This is what happened to the banks
of the middle west. Flush with mo
ney. encouraged by their city CORES
pondents to make all the loans pos
sible, within four months the glad
hand was replaced by the frozen face
and falling prices for farm products
reduced the paying power of tic
bank s debtors.
The outlook for the banks depends
on the outlook for agriculture. The
wealth of the state comes from its
farms, and practically all its business
depends on~the value Of its farm pro-
ducts. The banks depend on farming
just as truly as the farnel himself
does.
Let us see what South Dakota is
doing, which way she is going, and
then we will know which way the
banks are going.
The United States Department of
Agriculture, with the ail Of tUuth
Dakota representative and several
hundred correspondents, large ly
farmers, makes an estimate of the
crop production of the state each year
with its value at farm prices as or
December /. The estimate Of the
total value Of all field crops in South
Dakota in 1923 is 1872, 100000, which
is $ll, 100000 more than in 1922, and
nearly $7S,000,000 more than in 1921.
In 1913 it was $94, 1897, 900, so it will
be seen that our gross production has
more than doubled in ten years. These
figures will be found in Weather
Crops and Markets" for December
%, 1923.
These figures do not consider our
livestock production. 1t is assumed
that a large part Of the field crops
is turned into beef, pork and dairy
products and that the selling value Of
that portion is increased from fifty
to one hundred per cent thereby. In.
deed our total production of wealth
from all sources is estimated close to
$4O0,000,000.
Tie 1923 corn crop Of the state was
IA, 10000 bushels. which is about
twenty millicn bushels more than the
greatest corn crop we ever had raised
previously, the crop Of 1921
Corn production is tie basis of
successful farming anywhere in the
middle west. Whether the farmer 5
income is from beef, pork or dairy
products hc must grow corn.

ity OF any farming community IN this
