Farm Output Of State
Larger in Depression

That Minnesota actually raises and
markets more bushels and pounds OF
farm products than it did before the
depression is shown by series Of
indexes indicating the volume Of agri-
cultural production in Minnesota, pre-
pared by DR.. w. C. Waite of the di-
vision of agricultural economics, Uni
versity Farm, st. Paul.
From figures on the quantity of the
16 most important Minnesota farm
products sold, DIR. Waite has prepar-
ed an index for each year from 1924
to 1888. This index dropped from
1O2 in 1924 to 81 in 1927, gradually
rising to 81 in 1880. In 1881 it was
104; in 1882, 1O6; and in 1888, 1O3.
Separate indexes representing the
number Of acres of crops harvested
and the number of livestock on
farms, show the same general trend.
For example, in 1929 the index of
harvested crop acres was SO, rising
to 104 in 1881, 103 in 1882, and 102
in 1888. The index of livestock on
farms, as of January 1, was 100 in
1929, and it reached Ill for each of
the last two years.
DR.. Waite says this expansion in
volume of agricultural production
since the beginning of the depression
has probably been largely the result
of farmers efforts to offset lower
prices by larger physical volume of
commodities sold.

BUILDS CASTLE OF
KERNELS OF CORN

Faribault-A complete model cast
lie, constructed of kernels of corn, Is
the work of Tai Taubman, Faribault
fireman, who devoted some 400 h / 5
of painstaking labor to the job. When
the structure was completed, it
weighed about rs pounds. Walls were
made of plaster of Paris, while each
kernel of corn is imbedded separate
ly in putty, to give the effect of
stones. There are scores of tiny win,
dows in the building, with SO on one
side alone. Using glass has been
placed in the windows and electric
lights inside, so that at night the
structure presents quite spectacular
appearance. Taubman used different
colored kernels of corn to give an at
tractive design. A picture of castle
was his chief plan with which to
work.
