country and city in terms of spiritual
as well as material values, no single
factor has played so important part
as radio.
: II has been esfiarSsed -Tnat there are
now in use 100000 radio receiving
sets which serve between 100000
and 60,0O0,000 listeners. Just what
percentage Of these 100000 sets
are in farm homes is unknown, but
a survey made two or three years
ago showed that one Of every five
farm homes in the United States has
a radio set. Considering the amazing
growth Of the radio industry, which
has increased by leaps and bounds ev-
cry year, it is reasonable to suppose
that that ratio has held its own, if
not actually increased, so that it
would not be bad guess to assert
that one in every four, or perhaps
even one in every three farm homes,
now has a radio set.
The results Of the survey referred
to, made by the National Farm Radio
council, revealed some interesting
facts in regard to the importance of
the radio to the farmer. It's i'm
portance in changing the marketing
methods of entire groups of farmers
was reflected in reports from 43
states. More than 46 per cent of the
replies to the QUESTIONABLE sent out
gave specific examples Of cash saw
ings effected by the use Of radio and
practically every report indicated the
Importance and value to the farmer
of having market reports from "a to
4S hours earlier than they are OBJ
tainable through any other source or
medium.
Typical of hundreds of reports of
the farmers use of radio in market
ing is this one from a farmer living
near Keytesville, Mo-: "Radio report
ed hogs due to drop in two days.
Shipped at once. Saved $3.50. In
same week put off haying because of
storm warning. This prevented heavy
loss of hay"
In conducting this nationwide radio
survey the National Farm Radio
council gathered and tabulated 1850
individual expressions. The survey
was conducted by the council in CO.
operation with Is farm publications,
45O county agents, 200 boys and girls
club leaders, $50 home demonstration
agents, the National Grange, the
American Farm Bureau federation,
several hundred teachers of vocation
al agriculture, deans of 81 colleges
and several radio stations.
Ninety-five per cent of farmer radio
owners, the council said, think of
their radios as a utility as well as
an amusement device. They think of
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1929-04-19

it as utility because it brings to
them market reports from "a to 48
hours earlier than obtainable in any
other way. These enable the farmer
to market his produce to the great
est advantage.
1t is, however, as an amusement,
rather than a utility device, that the
radio is playing an important role
in satisfying the desire of the farm
youth for entertainment and he2 Ag
to answer the question Of =
you going to keep 'em,'' etc. Thanks
to radio, the farm boy today sits in
the great national sporting events.
He attends, by proxy, the worlds
series games, the great gridiron clas-
sizes, national championship bouts of
all sorts. He, thrills at a reception
to Lindbergh, at an address by the
President from Washington. He not
only knows what is happening when
it happens, but he is enabled to feel
real sense of participation in the
event.
The voices of grand opera stars,
the masterpieces of music, both vocal
and instrumental, the latest dance
tunes or vaudeville jokes are as ia
miliar to the farm family today as
they are to city folks. Farm life, in
deed, has entered new era of COM
fort, convenience and satisfaction.
For in very true sense, and to a
far greater extent than the govern
ment's census figures yet show, the
city is moving to the country. That
is, the factors that made the city at
tractive are rapidly becoming equally
available on the farms. And In this
evolution radio is playing major
role.
This is due to greater extent in
America than elsewhere by reason of
the lines along which our radio
broadcasting has developed. Through
the association Of stations into ma
tion-wide network it is possible to
give radio listeners, throughout the
country, the very finest programs that
talent and ingenuity can produce.
Without the cooperation of these
stations, remote parts Of the country
would still be denied the pleasure of
hearing many of our finest artists,
since these artists for the most part
are still city-minded and congregate
in those centers of population where
rich concert and theatrical contracts
are to be found.
But while the artist stays in the
city, his voice and his artistry are
broadcast, by radio, to every corner
OF the land. So are the latest news
and the views of informed men, Radio,
in very definite way, has carried
the city to the farm.
$50, when today the question is
asked: How're you goin' to keep
'em down on the farm?' the answer is
obvious" says Mr.. Aylesworth. "They
don't have to be kept. They're stay,
ing from choice. Uncle Sans census
figures themselves prove it most con-
clusively!"

Attorney General William A. Mitchell mas an
nounced that his new prison plan provides for en-
ployment for federal prisoners. Labor unions are
opposed to the establishment Of factories in federal
or state prisons or reformatories. They are op-
posed to co~nvict-made goods.
Attornel General Mitchell brushes aside the oppo-
tiion whc.hi Sppts alley nj Neutrality-suspicious.
sition, which he says is based on the contention
that the profits Of convict labor would compete with
outside business. These are his words:
This is a very selfish opposition. Products Of
federal prisons are to be used only by the federal
government and the quantity is too small to be an
important factor in competition with private enter
prises."
He has a plan all his own. He proposes the fed
eral prison industries shall not be concentrated on
d few industries. Beyond that he says private IN
dustry has no justification for opposition to employ
ment OF federal prisoners.

4hele mas been much complaint from other citrus
growing sections, or potential citrus growing sections.
q Texas over the embargo now in force by Texas
against citrus nursery stock from Florida.
The embargo may work certain hardships on these
sections. principally the Winter Garden district, and
the Laredo section.
1t may prevent the residents Of those sections from
securing all the nursery stock they want, at least tenn
porarily.
For a time the sections in question thought they
could get stock from California. But nurserymen in
that state explained they had grown only enough
stock for local consumption, since there had been no
Texas demand for years.
Any hardship worked on the Winter Garden and
Laredo now viii be repaid in the future by the added
safety to the citrus fruit industry Of Texas. The in
production Of the Mediterranean fruit fly into this
state would be disastrous to these potential citrus
sections, just as II would be to the Valley.
Not only that. it would be a disaster TO the peach
industry OF East Texas. to certain vegetable indus
tries. and to other agriculture in Texas.
The Lower Rio Grande Valley should do everything
IN its power to help Laredo and the Winter Garden
to secure trees.
Commissioner Of Agriculture George B. Terrell ask
ed the nurserymen Of the Valley to sell all the trees
they possibly can to these sections. at as low a price
ms possible.
Since the embargo was placed in effect principally
ct the request OF the Valley, this section should un-
questionably do all It can to carry out the request Of
Mr.. Terrell.
And nurserymen Of the Valley declare that they
will do 50.
But in all probability there will be a shortage, in
view Of the tremendous development of new territory
in the Valley, most Of which is being planted to citrus
fruit.
