farm worker in this 60-county area
is $4,000, compared with less than
S3200 for the United States as a
whole, the Review says. Relative
ly high output is achieved with
less than half the area devoted to
farming, compared with about
two-thirds of the country as a
whole, and with fewer than five of
each 100 employed persons at work
on farms, compared with over II
out of each 100, nationally.

FARM CROPS HIGH

Variety is the word for agricul-
ture in the state of Delaware, in
southern New Jersey, and the east
ern two-thirds of Pennsylvania, ac-
cording to the August Business Re
view of the Federal Reserve Bank
of Philadelphia. In the 60-county
area, comprising the Third Dis
trict, 80 counties are among the
leading counties in the United
States for 20 per cent of the key
items of farm production and in
yentory shown in the latest Census
of Agriculture. "Over the dis
trict," the publication points out,
farmers markets, county fairs,
and picnics burst with bounty.
Through the Pennsylvania Dutch
country, supper tables sag with
meats, fruits, ond vegetables trans
formed into unpronounceable dish
es like G'shtuptaful Lew'r and
Schnitz un Knepp (stuffed baked
liver. and dried apples and dump
lings). Truckloads of produce
pour into the worlds largest soup
factory at Camden, New Jersey.
The worlds largest commercial
truck farm enterprise in Cumber-
land County, New Jersey, keeps up
to $500 people busy processing 90
million pounds of vegetables yearly
from seed to freezer" The Re-
view points out that though the
areas prominence in industry
tends to obscure it's farm produc-
ton. this is not due to lack of ag-
ricultural achievement. Counties
in this region rank high in the
general classifications of farm out
put and value of products. In sales
of poultry and poultry products, 1S
counties are among the nations
leaders. Sussex, Delaware, is first
in the country; Lancaster, fourth;
Ocean, ninth; Cumberland (N.J),
18th; York, 18th; and thirteen
other counties range from 9th to
Tooth place. In acres of veget-
.ables harvested for sale, the nine
counties in this area among the
top 100 are Cumberland (N.J),
Sussex, Gloucester, Bucks, Salem.
Burlington, Kent, York, and Lam
caster. In sales of dairy products,
Lancaster, Chester, Bradford, Sus-
quehanna, Berks, Wayne, and Bur-
lington counties are icluded among
the first 100 nationally, and Bur-
lingto, Adams, Frankli, Berks, and
Gloucester counties are among the
country's 100 leaders in sales of
fruits and nuts.
Physical and economic factors
such as climate, soil, topography,
and consuming populaces in nearby
markets favor agriculture in this
tri-state area. Though variety is
one of the chief characteristics of
farming in this region, this is pri-
marily poultry and dairy area,
with so cents of each dollar of
products sold by farmers in the
region derived from the sale of
chickens, turkeys, eggs, milk, and
allied products, according to the
Review. Although poultry business
provides the Third District with it's
primary source of farm income, in
SO out of so counties dairy prod
ucts come first.
