ON THE AGRICULTURE
FRONT

NEGRO FARMERS HELPED
PRODUCE NATIONS GREATEST
CROP IN 1916
High yields were primarily res
ponsible for the record crop. How
ever the large acreage harvested
and the more favorable growing
season were important contribut-
ing factors. The aggregate volume
of crops last year was rs percent
above the l923-32 (pre-drought)
average, two points above the pre-
vious record of 1912 and seven
points above the 1945 crop. 1t is
pointed out that both the quantity
were outstanding last year.
A total of So crops were harvest
ed off nearly 345 illion acres. This
acreage was slightly smaller than
during the previous three years,
Dut larger than any year between
1888 and 1912 During the 1929
80 period, crop acreage averaged
between 355 and 1862 illion acreas.
Cash receipts from farm market
ings during the first II months of
1874 Amounted to about PIG billion
dollars-l4 percent above the same
period in 1945. Receipts from live
stock and livestock products were
approximately 10 percent greater
than last year, and crop receipts
about 10 percent higher The in
crease in crop receipts was brought
about mainly by large gains in re-
ceipts from cotton and oil bearing
crops.

WINTER CABBAGE PLENTIFUL

WINTER CABBAGE PLENTIFUL
New cabbage from the South will
be plentiful on January markets
generally, according to marketing
specialists of the U. S. Department
of Agriculture. Large shipments
will. come from Florida, Texas and
California and smaller supplies
from Arizona The crop is expect
ed to total about $4,000 tons.
Along with the new cabbage,
markets in Northern areas will
have stored cabbage from the fall
crop to offer. Storage houses in
New York State still have large
supplies of fall cabbage, those in
Wisconsin, smaller supplies. New
cabbage usually sells at a higher
price than stored cabbage but late
in the winter offers more vitamin
c because cabbage loses some of
this vitamin during storage.
New York State has so much
stored cabbage that kraut factories
are continuing to operate during

filled their tanks once and now
are putting this kraut in barrels.
