The Farm Analysis Survey

The farm analysis of the %
farms on which records were kept
by the owners during the year of
1880 has been returned to the
county by Mr.. r. M. Turner. To
attempt to cover the entire analy-
sis would be big write-up if COW
cred at all in detail. The high
lights however, are being given
here.
The average of the 23 farms
show that there are 1876 acres in
crops, with 1.95 in potatoes: 81
acre in asparagus; Ia acres into
grain; LIS acres in Strawberries:
8 acres in hay; 4.4 acres in tree
fruits: 81 cows; 2.3 hogs: and 81
chickens on the average farm.
These averages are for the %
farms, but in some instances, as in
Strawberries for instance. but five
of the farmers had strawberries.
which meant that there was an
average of an acre of strawberries
on the five farms with berries.
The receipts from the farm
studies showed that the following
percentage came from the various
enterprises: tree fruits, 52.3;
strawberries, 1.3: asparagus 8: po-
tatoes, 4.8; dairy lis: other live
stock, So; eggs and poultry, III;
other sources 5; percentage re-
ceipts other crops 81; percentage
livestock increase IT.
The average farm income for the
% farms was $1270.70. The aver
age interest allowed at six percent
amounted to $576.56 which leaves
The Kennewick courier-reporter. [volume] (Kennewick, Wash.) 1914-1938, 1931-04-16

a labor income of SCALA as the
average for the % farms. Keep in
mind then that labor income is
what the farmer earns by his la
Dor as separate from a fair return
of interest on his capital invest
ment.
In addition to his labor income
he also has what the farm con-
tributes to the family living, while
for the average family on a num-
Der Of studies has been shown to
be between six and eight hundred
dollars. On the average farm then
for the study, as compared to the
man living in town, having to pay
house-rent and water, and pur-
chase all of his meat, milk, gro
ceries, etc. the farmer would have
to pay S700 living from the farm,
plus his 694.14, as against the av
erage salary of the working man in
town. If the farmer did not owe on
his farm. which is rare we believe
in this county. then he would have
the additional $576.56. If, how
ever. he does have debts this
should take care of any interest
change which he has.
There is, of course, considerable
variation on income from farm to
farm. The lowest labor income that
we have is a record which shows a
loss of around $1975: another one
shows a loss of $1,000: with two
others showing a loss of a little
over $500. These are figures on the
labor income basis. Going to the
other extreme, however, we have
records which show labor income
of over $500; one over $2700; one
over $1,000, another one over $500.
another around $500 and from
that down as low as 500.
The purpose of this survey was
to try to get at the actural incomes
on farms in the county so that

POULTRY TRENDS
ARE FRIGHTENING
Reduced March Chick Orders
Slower Receipts, and Prospects
For Continued Low Prices

Confirming local hatchery and
farm surveys, the United States
bureau Of agriculture economics
finds a national reduction of 1872
percent in chick orders for March
delivery or later, which combined
with the slowing UP of egg receipts
and prospects for continued low
feed prices, brightens up the poul-
try outlook considerably, according
to r. M. Turner, extension eco
nomist, Washington State College.
Early hatchings have fallen far
short of last years figure and
even if a good late hatch mater
ializes, pullet numbers next fall
are likely to be greatly lowered,
thinks Mr.. Turner. Commercial
flocks on both the Pacific and At
iantic coasts have been culled hard
this winter and numbers are not
excessive. A similar reduction is
found in the farm flocks of the
Middle West. Production should

and hard to scatter. The material
should be just wet enough so that
it will fall apart readily after be-
ING pressed together in the hands.
A half barrel, large tub, or a wa
tertight box makes a good recep-
tacle in which to mix a small
quantity of bait.
The question of use of 1 pound
of arsenate of lead in place of the
/ pound of white arsenate has been
brought to our attention again
this year. We have written DR..
Webster of the Entomology de-
partment at the college, asking for
definite information on this point.
Will say, however, that several
growers reported back to US last
year that when they used pound
of arsenate of lead to the above
that they did not seem to get fav-
orable results, and found it was
necessary to increase the amount
of lead. We hope to be able to give
you more definite information on
this next year.
If the bait is properly prepared
and rather evenly distributed over
the patch it should be possible ito
practically rid the patch of the cut
worm menace in a few days. 1t may
be necessary to bait two or three
times in areas that are badly IN
Tested.
We would advise growers to
check carefully the types of dam
age being done ito be sure that the
damage is being caused by the cut
worm rather than by the larva of
the asparagus beetle. The larva of
the asparagus beetle usually feeds
right in the tip of the growing
shoot without there being so much
of tendency to cause the bending
of the tip. If the damage is found
to be caused by the beetle then
the best method of control will
probably be the allowing of an or
iginal plant to grow in the row
and keeping this sprayed with ar
senate of lead to as to allow this
to be trap for the young larva.
Evergreen is a spray material
developed recently containing a
poison which is poisonous to in
sects not only internally but as a
contact poison, and yet it is not
at all poisonous to any warm blood
ed animal. It is barely possible
that use of this as spray dur
ing the heighth of infestation by
the asparagus beetle might be
found very beneficial.

The possibility of the use of corn
as a supplementary cash crop in
this county has been discussed
from time to time. This year,
in some sections there may be a
shortage of water, corn offers
possibly a greater opportunity than
some other crops because of the
fact that it requires comp aratlve-
" little water until late in the sea-
SON. Other advantages for a year
such as this are the low cost of
seed per acre and the low cost of
cultivation.
Mr.. Turner, the farm manage
ment specialist, reports that there
are over 5000 carloads of corn
shipped into this state every year.
Most of this comes from the mid
die west and the Argentine.
Many feel that these sections
can produce better corn than can
be produced here. but the Prosser
experiment station in trials last
fall found that the local corn has
equal feed value with the Eastern
corn and from the economical side
gains can be put on a little more
economically with the local than
with the slightly higher price upon
corn.
We have quite a few farmers
growing corn in the county who
seem to get by the earworm with
little trouble, M. j. d. Sutton, Pros
ser, who grows seed corn each
year by planting early, reports
that he is able to get away from
serious earworm damage. The ex-
pertinent station at Prosser as a
whole, have little damage from this
pest, especially if corn is planted
early.
In sections where the wire-worm
is bad it would be questionable
whether it would be wise to plant
corn at all as the corn crop is par
ticularly subject to damage by
this pest.
Corn is one crop that probably
will make as good If not better
use of phosphate fertilizers than
any other crop that we will grow.
One of the main functions of phos-
phorous in a normal soil is feed
production and since production of
corn is the production of a feed
especial care should be given to
the use of phosphate fertilizer.
We believe that from four to six
hundred pounds of superphos-
phate to the acre should not be
too much, or possibly better yet,
especially where there may be a
need of nitrogen, the use of 220
pounds of Amophos A to the acre
should be quite profitable. The
corn crop should then be watched
during the growing season and
unless it shows good green color
additional nitrogen should be ap-
ulied, or if the ground has not
been recently in alfalfa or sweet
clover, or has been heavily ma
nured, the use of additional nit
rogen up to at least 200 to 800
pounds of ammonium sulphate per
acre should not be out of line. The
fact that corn has been proven
just as valuable from the feed
standpoint as eastern corn, and
that it can be grown at a low
cost per acre, and low water re-
quirement, might possibly make
it a crop worthy of considera-
ton by those who have time to
put in and not very much money
to invest.
