* * m mmamm Analysis Reveals. Source of Income i Economists Study Agricultural Enterpri*cs Which Yield Cask to Ohio Farmers COLUMBUS, 0 . (Special)—Dairy­ ing i# the source of more gross cash income to Ohio farmers, than is any other agricultural enterprise. It led all other sources of such income for 43 of the 88 counties of the state, in 1927. Hogs ranked as the greatest source of cash income in 32 coo c?s, cattle in three counties, fruit in three counties, vegetables in two counties, sheep in two counties, and corn in only one county. In that year Wood County ranked first in gross cash in como from the sale of agricultural products, Darke County was second and Wayne Coun­ ty third. For Greene County the total agricultural gross cash income was 4175; the income per acre was $17.40 and per farm, $1,740. The highest ranking source of income in the coun­ ty was hogs, which yielded 33 per cent of the total. Second and third commodities were dairy yielding 21 per cent, and wheat returning 21 per cent of the total gross cash income. . Analysis of the figures on gross cash income has been made by the rural economics department of the Agricultural Experiment Station and the Ohio State University, The figures in the study do not reveal the value of agricultural products, but the cash money derived from their sale. It does not include the value of farm crops fed to livestock or used for seed, in the counties where they were produced. This explains the ap­ parent minor place of corn in the agricultural production of the state, since a great volume of the com pro­ duced is sold in the form of livestock to which i t has been fed, and there­ fore does not appear in the schedule. The statistics of the year 1927 were chosen because the' year was practi­ cally typical of the volume of agri­ cultural income in the state. Because of the omission of certain miscellane­ ous items hard to classify, and be­ cause no account is taken of any in­ come to the farmer except through the sale of agricultural products, the figures .given axe undoubtedly lower than the actual income of the farm owners, it is pointed out by Prof. J, I. Falconer, head of the rural econ­ omics department, Because of wide difference in the size of the counties, it was found de­ sirable to determine the income for each farm and for each acre pf arable land, as a better basis of comparison. “The low income per acre' is largely due to the fact that the acreage desig­ nated in census returns as 'all land in farms’ includes considerable tracts of land not actually under, cultivation and some not even used, for pasture,” says Professor Falconer. Furred Tweed Suits Sound Top Note of Chic Breathtaking <Jown to the last de­ tail la the fur-trimmed tweed suit as It comes to us this season. Because of the novelty and high quality of its woolen weave, because of the luxuri­ ous fur lavished upon It, because of the striking desighfulness of the blouse which accompanies It the tweed suit or ensemble with Its three-quur- ter length coat Is proving the sensa­ tion of the hour.

W. Dean, extension'forester'for the Ohio State University. Dean recommends treatment in the late fall which will keep the trees from losing their vigor and vitality between growing seasons. Tree diseases and inability to resist insect pests come directly 'from, im­ paired vigor of trees suffering from lack of1proper soil conditions during the growing season. If the leaves colored up and fell from the tree early in the fall, it means that the tree needs rejuvenation, Dean says, •■■' Hard packing of soils about the root system of the trees prevents air and water reaching the- roots. It ealv be Overcome by spading up the. soil around the tree in late fall and apply­ ing a heavy coating of well rotted stable manure or decayed leaf mold just before freezing. The fertilizer should be applied clear out to a point near the tip of the branches, so that the active, rootlets, lit the^outer edge of the root system, will get the most good from the treatment. Next spring the mulch should be spaded into the soil and the ground under the tree kept well cultivated during the growing season. . Commer­ cial fertilizers high in- nitrogen and phosphorus should be applied under trees in the early spring. Fall and early winters are also ex­ cellent times for removing dead or unsightly, branches, Dean suggests. Insect pests have steadily become a greater menace and expense to Amer­ ican agriculture, Coni borers, Medi­ terranean fruit flies, Oriental peach moths, and hundreds of other lens ad­ vertised but equally destructive mem­ bers of the insect world, have been adding to the burdens of the farmer. As the importance of the insect pest i.ncreased, so did the importance of ci atrol measures and knowledge which enables the farmer to identify the muwauder. With this in mind, public schools of all grades in agricultural districts are teaching facts about the'*insects and their ways. To aid in this educa­ tional work the United States Depart­ ment of Agriculture has issued an illustrated bulletin, Farmers' Bulletin 1G01-F, "Collection and Preservation of Insects for Use in the Study of Agriculture,” by Margaret C. Mansuy >of the Bureau of Entomology. Offi­ cials of the department believe the bulletin will aid the teachers and also amateurs, in the collection of insects. It contains information about insects to be collected, where .to find .them, what equipment to use on collecting trips, how to kill, pin, and spread the specimens obtained, and complete di­ rections for preparing and mounting them. ' The bulletin may be had,.as long as the supply lasts,' from the Office of Information pf the United States Department of Agriculture at Wash­ ington, f). C.

Cash outgo ha* been incteasirig more rapidly than cash income for the Ohio farmer In the-past five years. During that period the average grow i cash Income of the Ohio fSTitler has • Increased 17 per cent over what it was f in 1231 and 1922, but in the name time cash outlay has increased 23 per cent, f V, R. Wertz of the rural economics department of the Ohio Agricultural - Experiment Station, has found, | “The estimated outlay of Ohio farmers for business purposes has been on the increase since 1921,” suys Wertz. “Ih 1921 the'total outlay for farm business expenses amounted to 147 million dollars, Whereas by 1928 it-amounted to 201 million dollars.” Taxes are the most -important sin* gle itdm of farm expense, Wertz bus ifound. “Total farm taxes1have in th e , past rtilie years averaged 43 million1 'dollars a year* for the ktate, or 2G per, cent of the total outlay for farm ex-i penses. The -tax bills Of Ohio agrl- j culture Which amounted to 38 million, dollars ■ in 1920 had increased to 51 i million by 1928. “Following .taxes the next most im-( j portant item of cash farm expense in j 1Ohio is the wage. -bill. Wages have taken 18 per cent of the outlay of] Ohio farmers for business purposes ini the past nthe years, farm implements and machinery. 16 .per cent, Commer­ cial feeds, 11. per cent; fertilizer and lime 8 per cent; farm buildings 7 per cent; feeder stock 4 per cent; twine 1 p,er cent.
