Claims that the tariff would be

characterized as absurd.
Sexton gives an interesting COM
pariSon OF tomato crops Of the past
with relation to the amount of re-
turn they have produced for the
grower. He writes:
The tomato rate, which has the
support Of practically every south
ern and western representative and
senator. will prove of material bene-
fit TO Valley growers if they hold
their production within reasonable
limits. However, they should bear
in mind that the highly protected
industrialists, who are seeking more
protection in the new bill, are pro-
pagandizing the tomato and other
vegetable rates throughout the early
producing sections of the south in
an effort to secure support for the
excessive rates the bill grants man.
ufactures and industry. They are
not greatly interested in the tomato
grower, but they are interested In
securing the excessive increases the
bill affords their industries.
IF the tomato grower. as a re-
suit of such extravagant claims as
are being made in behalf OF the
tomato rate. is influenced to ignore
the law OF supply and demand, he
is he one who will suffer disaster.
Limited Production Profitable
THE intimation that the Valley
would profit TO the extent OF S1O.-

was grown in 1926, and a fact Of
considerable significance to Valley
growers is that . was the smallest
crop on the smallest acreage since
1928. The 1926 crop in these early
producing states totaled 1873 cars.
The 1928 crop was 20,8l8 cars, with
a farm value Of e18,377, 010. The
1926 crop, 5000 cars less than that
Of 1928, had a farm value approx

Tomato growers in the early

plunged The following year 22,9l3
cars were produced, with a farm
value Of SIS, 762, O6c. In other words
they increased production so per
cent, decreased total receipts 80 per
cent. and many of the larger grow
ers lost thousands Of dollars.
From 1922 to 1926 production in
these early states averaged approx
mately $4,000 ears annually and the
farm value averaged from $3.50 to
$500 per bushel. In 1925 produc-
ton decreased to l6.349 cars and
the farm value increased TO $3.O7
per bushel. There was a further
decrease in production in 1926 and
the farm value increased to $3.51
per bushel. The huge acreage and
heavy production 1927 drove the
farm value down to $2.02 per bushel.
