In other words, the farmer had shouldered a tax increase of 250 per cent since the first invasion of Belgium back in 1914. But this is not the worst of it. In 1926, Ir.

One-crop farming Is the root of evil In most of the troubles which have come to the farmers of the Pacific CoasU They have been prone to put "all of the eggs Into one basket" and when an over supply or poor crop comes, It generally means .ruin, not only for the. one-crop farmer farm-er but for the one-crop community as well. AS a result many communities are Interested In aiding the agriculturists In diversifying their farms. Some form of live stock raising and feeding seems to be the most logical solution The advantage of live stock produc. tion lies In the fact that live stock is readily convertible Into cash, especial ly on the West Coast where local pro durtJnn is far short of the demand not only provides a cash Income but a highly desirable diversification. But the big thing about encourag ing live stock production in a citrus or fruit country lies In the benefit to the soil. Incldently. Florida is now taking stock of her gToves, so to speak, and finds the citrus production has fallen off. A study of the soil shows that rebuilding or rejuvenating program is In . order. Therefore, state authorities and leaders in Flori da agriculture are now carrying on an intensive campaign to build up live stock population in the state, in order that the manure may be applied to the soil, that Florida may increase the quality and volume of citrus produc tion In most parts of the West, the country is young and the soli has not yet been drained of Its priceless crop n-n.iiiMnir fliiftiiMna. Yet here and noticeable, because of a failure to re turn to the soil the substance that U taken away with each crop. It would be well for, the western agricultural community to "take Block" and aw In a general live stock program which would at once add to the productive ness of the soil and at the-same time provide an additional cash income. Jjve Biock feeding on the smaller farms would take off the market much of the thin stock from ranges which now goes directly Into meat channels. This would provide the range cattle grower with a new mar ket for his thin stock and at the same time aid materially in providing the rnnut markets with choice meat foods. Development of a program calling for some live stock on every farm and ranch has been given added impetus through' the activities of farm bureau organizations in forming local co.op erative shipping - organizations. Through this plan, the man with only one or two neaa or came, nogs or fthpon I enabled to pool blr Stock and powerful story.
