Still Going Westward f The-great migration across the plains to the far west . ended several decades ago. The empty well filled, and most of the homesteaders have become old-timers on the lands of their choosing. . Just the same, it would be a mistake to assume that the ? country has settled down to a statis condition in which change is over. Profound shifts and alterations are taking place now, just as they were in the days when white-topped wagons went creaking west to Oregon; the difference is that now they "are not so spectacular. v - ' - '. A recent dispatch from Washington to Kenneth Watson reveals the fact that agriculture is undergoing a very fundamental funda-mental change of base a change lhat is apparently still a -rpart of the great westward migration of the last generations, and which undoubtedly has something to do with the present depression in farm produce prices. Thus it is revealed that the movement from fann to city still continues. There are fewer farms in the country today than there were five years "ago. There were fewer then than in 1920 On an average, 400,000 farmers a year have been abandoning the struggle. . . But a closer examination of the figures is even more interesting. For instance, while the number of farms decreases, de-creases, there are certain states where it is- increasing materially. ma-terially. In Utah, for instance, the ' number of farms has risen by five per cent in the last five years. In Arizona the increase is nearly 33 per cent. Nebraska and Minnesota show healthy increases. Wyoming shows a"gain; so do Nevada and North Dakota.' The decreases, on the other hand, are largely in the east and south. Thus New-York state shows a 17 per cent decrease de-crease ; Ohio, one of 15 per cent ; Georgia, ono of 17 per cent ; Pennsyvania, 14 per cent; New. Jersey, 17 per cent; New Hampshire; 27jer cent; Massachusetts, 20 per cent;"Con- necticut, 22 per. cent.; South Carolina; 18. per cent; Indiana 'li percent..: -K y- j1;- Y Dissecting these statistics in this way indicates that what is happening is not simply a country-wide shrinkage in farm areas. It is, in some ways, more like a continuance of the old movement westward. The states showing the biggest decreases: are chiefly the states where industrial development develop-ment has been greatest. The farm belt is contracting, to be cure; but it is ateo; rearranging its boundaries ; and this re- arrangement may," in the v long run, prove . more important . than the contractions. in I i - t.i ir i Howdy, folks!
