PROSPERITY IS
Indie ATED IN
STATES Of NV

CHICAGO, Feb. 17.-Prosperity's
sudden arrival last summer, al
though remarkable, did not over
whelm, and the northwest has not
been left asleep at the switch, ="
Charles F. Collision, agricultural ed
itor of The Minneapolis Tribune, told
members of the Inland Daily Press
Association here today.
Even wheat raising communities
are alive and active said Mr.. Collis-
son. "A query sent out by The Tri-
bune revealed As different projects
now in active operation locally
throughout the five northwest states
to put agriculture on better basis" F"
Mr.. Collisions address was on
diversified agriculture and its ef.
feet on the prosperity of commune
ties that have developed dairying
and balanced farming. He told of
the revival of prosperity in the
northwestern states this year, as a
result of the new grain crops of
1924. "In 1923 the total value of ten
leading crops in the ninth federal
reserve district was about $530,00O,-
900. In 1924 the same crops were
worth $1,110,000,000 and the prices
are still soaring" he declared.
''All through central and southern
Minnesota where the creameries and
cheese factories are numerous, and
farmers are milking and feeding pigs
and chickens on the by-products OF
dairying, it is absurd to say that
farmers are hard up. They reap a
harvest in the milk pail two to three
times a day and pay their debts like
good business men,"
Mr. Collision said talk about price
fixing comes largely from communit
les that do not know much about the
dairy cow Whether we find a
community where the cow paths are
numerous" he said. there we find
the real prosperity, even during the
! past five years."
