rIURSDAY AFTERNOON, JULY 9, 1925 AMERICAN FARMER IS BETTER OFF THAN HE WAS 5 YEARS AGO (Continued From Page One) Orleans. The increased income lies in ti.j states within those im aginary lines. “The largest gain has been felt in North Dakota, where there is a 95 per cent increase in farm income. Oklahoma has asl per cent in crease; Kansas 36; Mississippi 33; Arkansas 31 per cent, ranging down to a slight increase of 2 per cent for lowa. “A loss in income of 25 per cent will be marked up for North Caro lina; South Carolina will suffer a loss of 21 per cent; Kentucky 18 per cent; Washington 12 per cent; Idaho 11; Oregon 9; California 7, and Texas 8 per cent.” In face of the facts that winter , wheat is the smallest crop in the last 10 years and that more than one-fifth of the area planted in win ter wheat is the smallest crop in the last 10 years and that more than one-fifth of the area planted in win ter wheat last summer has been di verted to other crops, and other dis couraging situations that are effect ing the growing of foodstuffs, dent Bradfute IS optimistic. “There has been a steady prog ress for two years,” he says. “Farm ers are in a better frame of mind. “Great industries have shown a developing interest in finding out the true agricultural situation. This is encouraging. “Os added importance during the past year has been the rapid de- , velopment of the use of radio in get ting to the farmer educational and economic information of utmost im portance. “The problem of over-production is being met in two ways. First, better communication and informa tion systems are being set up so that the farmer has a better back ground for his prdouction work. “Second. diversification. The theory of diversification is finding its converts. The economic depres sion that followed the war was a stern teacher.” 666 is a prescription for Malaria, Chills and Fever, Dengue cr Bilious Fever. It kills the germs.
