 WASHINGTON, Nov. 2.-General increase in the size of farms and increased use of large labor saving machinery is a picture drawn by w. J. Spillman as the probable fu- ture for five major farm crops.
 In any one section where practi- cally all farmers may turn from one product to any one of a, dozen others when the price of product they have been producing is not satisfactory, the general prosperity of that area is not seriously threat ened. But, explains Spillman, prin- cipal economist of the department of agriculture, that privilege does not always obtain for the producers of cotton, corn, oats, hay and wheat
 There is a surplus acreage of each commodity. The cotton acre. age has expended from 33,000, 0,000 acres at the beginning of the war to 48,000,000. Wheat went from 53 100000 acres to 73,000,000 before it dropped back to 58,000,000.
 we cannot remedy the situation for any one of these five major crops by substituting some other crop for it." Spillman says. ITO ,, do so would only increase a surplus already existing in the substitute crops.
 There are two general alterna- tives which have some possibilities One is to use some means of re- ducing total crop acreages. The other would be a general increase in the size of farms and increased use of large labor saving machin- ery-thus reducing cost of produc- tion, which has the same effect as increasing market prices"
 Both of these alternatives would require a reduction in the num- Der of farm families, and the trans fer of a considerable part of the present farm population to other industries. Neither is compatible with theories of rural sociology as expressed by such farm organiza- tions as the National Grange anc other groups which lament dwin- ding farm population.
 Reforestation of marginal lands conversion of arabic to pasture or some of the best lands, and gen. eral increase in the number of cat tie and sheep on farms, particular ly in the corn belt and the north ern plains region, appear to offe,
