Agricultural and Livestock Conditions
’V!|
By ROGER W. BABSON

SALE NOTICE
Park, Mass., Nov. 2. — A
number of statements have recently
been mad* by Mr. Babson on the agri
cultural conditions in certain sections
of the Vobtitry. He has been asked
dfMcJT ^actions of the country and
which agricultural lines give ^he most
promisfr to the fanner and livestock
raiser ‘"•As his answer is of general
to business men as well as
farmers, we give his reply as follows:
£ _ Fanning a Business
p “The farm continues to be the prin-
ple subject of discussion in the Pull-
nan smokers. There are those who
elieve that farming is a business and.
ke any other business, is subject to
undamental economic laws. They be-
ieve s that the only law worth while
the law of supply and demand and
hat'all other laws are useless and
quires the most efficient equipment
and management.
Opportunities In Farming
“If I were to become a farmer to
day, dairying and poultry raising
would appeal to me hte most.
My study shows that dairying
is one of the best paying lines and one
which has openings in all parts of the
country." There are also excellent op
portunities for the raising of poultry
lb most section*. With many crops
the turn-over is but once a year with
the money coming in shortly after
harvest time, while dairying and poul*
try raising hhve the advantage of pro*
due ng a steady income throughout
all .he year. ~
“Of source . many other lines of agC
ric-uhirre have advantages. Many s<
hould be wiped off the stat’ite bookB. ti ns of the country are adapted
’hen there are those who believe that tlx* growing of fruit and modern met!
he farmer is the basis <»f all prod-^ oils'of packing add transportation giv
rity and should be subsidize^ and a country-wide market. The livestock
r m
laintained like the arftty-or havt r -
>th these positions are extreme- . ^
“Farming should be allowed to work
iut its future through the survival of
the most efficient the same as must
situation is quite favorable in
Southern arjd Central, states. In ad^
ditkm Jto the. improved conditions if
the NorthftdBlt lodlcdtf th
market gardeners near large citi
automobile, textile, and. ateel bus? have been, doing especially welU _They
good markets and stdnd
jnesses. Farming is. subject to the
rame temptations and opportunities as
mfaief lines, ahd th# fAt*
wx*ct to suffer or prosper according to
•heir industry, jutlgjue
^ressivenesS. On the. j
•hould be recognized tnl
jjty of all of us is vitally ^pendent up-.
fbn the prosperity of thd > j
Farmeiis Making Motley ' (41 *
c, “Information tvhich I have\recehred
'from seventy-eight leading centers,
^representing all .sections of the Unit
ed States, leadi^ fne to believe that the
farmers of the ,country, on a wh6I#,
are making more money. At any rate,
only a small jfoccentage of Agricultu
ral workers are losing money today.
The information that I have, cleat^y
shows that out, of seventy-eight local
ities, sixty-three register fanning as
profitable, both to the man who tills
the soil and the man who raises live
stock; four localities limit their prof
its to the livestock raiser, and only
eleven localities indicate that their
farmers are not making money. The
majority of these latter are behind
largely because of poor weather con
ditions.
“Two facts, however, stand out
strongly: (l) The greatest prosperity
has come where the farmers are or
ganized to market their own produce,
and (2) where the farmers are adopt
ing progressive methods and labor
saving machinery. Big business has
learned the value and necessity of co
operation. It is also prospering
through the use of labor-saving ma
chinery*^ Milhous of dollars could b«
saved by the fanners of the cotton

“Considering the a rangss of the.
Chtf/eApetiallt 'thl*
belt if they could market their crops
themselves through cooperative asso
ciations. In the case of cotton such
associations can act with the farmer
to improve the grades; can market
for the most advantageous price; and
when there is an extra large crop of
cotton an increased demand can easily
be stimulated through advertising so
that people will use more cotton and
replenish their cotton stocks. The de
mand for fruits, nuts, vegetables, and
dairy products could thus be stimu
lated eVen more than at present. The
demand for wheat, on the other hand,
cannot be easily stimulated as people
will eat only so much bread and, as
they become more prosperous, tend to
cut down rather than increase their
per capita of wheat.
“As I have stated many times be
fore, most farmers use too much man-
labor and not enough work-stock and
labor-saving equipment. A farm is
only one form of factory and hence re

Canada have enjoyed a beautiful fall
which has enabled the crops to ma
ture in nearly all sections.
“As a result of the favorable weath
er conditions, th# United States should
this year produce crops to a tplal ex
ceeding $10,000,000,000, while Canada
will add to this amount another $900,-
000,000. This means a total of $10,-
900,000,000 will be added to the gross
wealth Of America during 1927. Fur
thermore, if we include Mexico arid
Central America there would be set-
eral hundred more to be added . Of
course, this is not net wealth, as from
this amount must be deducted what
has been consumed, wasted apd other
wise destroyed. Even after this has
been done there will show a net gain
for which the people of the ^United
States and Canada should be duly
thankful on Thanksgiving day. As a
result of this crop situation the Bab-
sonchart should tend upward during
the balaifce of the year. Today it is
registering just about normal com
pared with 14 far cent above normal
