CASH IS POURING
INTO FARM AREAS
Some States Most Injured
by Drought Have Much
Larger Incomes.
BY CLAUDE A. JAEGER,
Associated Press Financial Editor.


NEW YORK. September 2l.-Cash
is pouring into farm States and, de-
spite the widespread predictions of
disaster before the drought lifted in
the Middle West, it now appears that
even some of the States most seriously
affected are enjoying the highest farm
income in years.
Consider, for example, the North
west, where drought conditions re-
ceived the personal attention OF Pres
ident Roosevelt on his return across
the Continent from his trip to Ha-
wall Aggregate 1884 cash income
of the farmers in North and South
Dakota, Montana and Minnesota, in
cluding wheat, corn and hog benefit
payments and proceeds of the sale
of cattle to the Drought Relief Ad-
ministration. will probably be the
highest since 1880.
Conditions Are Spotty.
Frederick E. Murphy, authority on
Northwestern agriculture, American
delegate to recent international wheat
conferences and publisher of the Min
neapolis Tribune, said today in ex-
PLANTATION Of the remarkable showing
of the farm States:
"Of course, some cattle have actual
ly starved and hogs have died from
the lack Of water and feed, but you
must remember that throughout the
drought area conditions are spotty.
A big percentage of the farmers have
some crops, many have fair crops
and prices Of most leading crops have
risen anywhere from so to 400 per
cent from the extremely low levels of
a year and a half or two years ago
This, together with benefit payments
and credits from Federal agencies,
has placed more cash in the hands
of the farmers than they have seen
in years"
Points to Statistics.
In an interview on the subject of
agricultural conditions, Murphy cited
detailed statistics for the Northwest,
explaining that estimates based on
Department of Agriculture figures in
dicate aggregate farm cash income
for 1884 for the four Northwest States
Of $456, ,268,l78. OF this total $62,-
o45, 900 represents wheat. corn and
hog benefit payments received on
crop reduction contracts, and $22, 49,
178 represents proceeds of the sale Of
cattle to the Drought Relief Admin
iStration.
Farm cash income for this area
for recent years is estimated as fol-
lows: 1929, 1898 ,O00, 900; 1880, $674,-
100000; 1881, $445, ,7s6, 900; 1892.
1928 1924, 900; 1888, 1881. AL 900; 1884,
s456, 1858 900.
The total estimated for 1894 is still
far below the levels Of 1929 and 1880,
but Murphy says:
You must remember that the
farmer Is farming cheaper than ever
before. He has greatly reduced his
costs in recent years, and the cash
that he gets now means more pur-
chasing power than before. OF course,
complete recovery has not yet come
to the farm States, but the record is
something to make the country sit
up and take notice"

FURTHER LAG IN TRADE
REPORTED AFTER SURVEY

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, September 21.-Fur-
ther declines in business were record
ed in August and the first half Of
September, "the time when seasonal
improvement ordinarily gets under
way" according to the monthly re-

Conference Board. The survey said
that the uninterrupted downward
movement in industrial production
since May brought the August levels

BASH OFFERS
SHIPMENT OF
DUTCH TULIPS
Both Standard and Newest
Varieties Included in
Importation.

To obtain those beautiful tulip
blooms in the early spring it is
necessary to plant the bulbs during
the fall. Bulbs may be planted all
through October and November, but
those who plant early run less
chance of encountering bad weather.
Basins Seed Store Company, 141
North Delaware street, announces
the arrival of a shipment of i'm
ported Dutch tulip bulbs, contain
ing more than 100 varieties of the
finest tulips, and undoubtedly the
largest selection coming into In
diana.
All the popular varieties are in
cluded along with many new va
rieties which are certain to give the
growers a real thrill when they
bloom next spring.
Some varieties of particular in
terest are Fantasy, the popular
Parrot type tulip which is very
large, ruffled, and resembles the
Oriental poppy; Miss Blanche,
true pure white Darwin; Monsieur
Mottet, the multifora type tulip
which produced several blooms on
one spike; Indian Chief, new and
exceptionally tall and large tulip,
and Sirene, the lily Towering type.
1t is unnecessary to order bulbs
out of the city as Bash's undoubt-
edly can supply the variety and
quantity desired in first quality
bulbs.
Mr.. Bash states that although
there is plenty of time to plant
the bulbs, it is best to purchase
them now while stocks are COM
plete.
Other bulbs for fall planting
which Basins now have in stock
are hyacinths, crocus, daffodils,
hardy lilies, Dutch iris and rock
garden bulbs.
The Bash company also carries
complete line of lawn seeds, in
Guiding Park Board, Shady Nook,
pure Kentucky blue grass, and
white clover. They also have in
stock pure raw bone meal, one of
the finest fall fertilizers for lawns,
rose bushes, bulbs and peonies.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 29.-Prop-
erty rights are unsafe under a gov
eminent which fails to protect its
citizens against starvation and cold,
Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt told the
1884 mobilization for human needs.
Mrs. Roosevelt, revealing she diff
fered somewhat with Relief Ad-
ministrator Harry L. Hopkins as to
the relief responsibilities Of the
government. presented her views in
the controversy regarding human
rights and property rights.
It recognize" she told the con-
ference opening the 1884 relief
drive, that when large numbers OF
people have no way Of earning a
living, the government is compelled
to see that they neither starve nor
freeze to death.
This responsibility is, by and
large, accepted as a matter of self
preservation for no government
which did not do this would re-
main stable and be able to protect
property rights. And no people who
we're not willing to provide the
wherewithal to do it would show
much understanding of human ma
ture."
Mrs. Roosevelt's difference with
Mr.. Hopkins concerned local relief
responsibilities Mr.. Hopkins had
criticized citizens of local commune
ties who failed to assume their
share of the relief burden.
