TRUCK GARDENING GAINS
IN CALIFORNIA
(Porterville Recorder)

California, which for years has led
the nation in citrus production and IN
total production Of its agricultural prod
ucts, has just stepped into first place as
a producer of truck crops-first IN vege-
table acreage, and cash return. Truck
crop acreage in the state now is set at
$4,000, producing crops worth S93,99O,-
900. Florida, second in income, is paid
only a fourth of this sum, with New
York third, and Texas fourth.
Unlike many of its competing truck
crop states, California's vegetable pro-
duction again illustrates the great diver
sification for which the state is noted in
general agriculture. Its commercial field
crop production includes almost every
thing from artichokes and asparagus to
garlic, onions, Strawberries and water
melons.
Much of CALIFORNIA; S truck crop pro-
duction now goes either into cans, or is
exported outside the state.
But the most significant development,
and the one which is probably responsible
for this states present leadership in the
truck crop field, is the establishment of
large canneries in California.
This condition. in turn, has been made
possible by the development of inter-
coastal shipping. Unlike fresh vegeta-
bles, canned truck crops can be sent by
the more leisurely water route, making
competition with eastern canned goods
profitable The forging into first place
of California truck crops is but another
illustration of the interdependence of
agriculture. industry and transportation.

RISE OF THE TOMATO


1t seems little strange to us that to-
matoes were not used as human food by
the white race until only little more than
hundred years ago, being thought poison
Gus. In fact. it is related that about 1888
New. Jersey child who had eaten a raw
tomato was rushed to doctor by her par
ents, who feared she would die.
There were early sueprstitions con-
nected with the tomato, one of which was
was that they were eaten by witches, an
other that they were effective as love po-
tions; in fact, they were at first known as
love apples" Even in recent years it has
been thought by some that eating tomatoes
tended to produce cancer, but science has
refuted that idea, also
Now the raising and marketing of to-
matoes. both fresh and canned has become
great industry. More than 20 million
cases. of canned tomatoes were produced
in the United States in recent year. in
Guiding whole tomatoes, paste, pulp, sauce
and juice
= The rise of tomato juice in popularity
during the last few years has been specta-
cular. increasing from an output of 1861
PSI cases in 1929 to more than five million
cases last year.
If tomato juice is really love potion,
it must be. contributing very greatly to the
emotional life of the present generation.

ARE THERE TWO KINDS OF
MONOPOLY?

The government is preparing an ag
gressive legal drive against companies
which have allegedly conspired in re-
straint of trade and violation of the anti
trust laws. The public supports govern
ment action in preventing such abuses, but
it may find it hard to reconcile the anti
monopoly drive with certain other govern
mental actions of recent years.
For example, large number of
states have passed so-called flair trade
acts" all of which are similar in wording
and identical in purpose, and which per-
nit manufacturers of trade-marked ar
ticles. to arbitrarily fix the minimum
prices at which they may be sold at re-
tail. The Federal government has given
its. official blessing to these statutes,
through the Miller-Tydings Act. What
could do more TO violate the spirit of the
antitrust laws-which were passed in the
interest of free and honest competition
than this? Theoretically, it is perfectly
possible for another manufacturer of
well-known competing product to lower
his prices and thus cut into the sale of the
price-fixed product. Realistically. it is
considerably more likely than many manu-
facturers of similar products will engage
in "gentlemen's agreements" whereby
prices are fixed, and middleman and re
taller may be forced to collect an excessive
profit at the public's expense. * = 20
By all means, let the government fight
combinations in restraint of trade But the
role of government in this drama would be
more ethical if it had not encouraged
monopoly by placing the protection of the
law about price-fixing.
