"There seems to he no emergency which requires or justifies government assistance to the farmers . directly through the use at the government's cash'or the government's credit." said the report. ”The American farmer is :sturdy. self-reliant and independent. He is not in the condition of seridom or semi-seridom. in which were the European people for when: govern~ ment aid was extended in some term or other during the last century." in advocating a land mortgage bank ing system and a system of coopera- l l tive credits associations the repovt as- serted that the use of the funds loaned'i tor productive purposes on the (brutal icovered by the mortgageb should boI ' insisted upon 1 l the distribution process.

The report sets forth the activities or the W in mm standard grain grades. and in the into ial administration of the new cotton futures law which the secretary calls the "fist definite systematic. legal up branch to thosolution oi diflieult prob lens in this field of distribution.” The mooretary recommends consideration ‘0! legislation to establish a permissive warehousing system (or grain and 001- ton.

Such a system would furnish relief in gtimes of emergency and would form a inofui part of the normal distributive isystem‘. It is probable that a federal Ilaw for a permissive warehousing sys- tom would stimulate this desirable de- velopment. " While the production of grain gen-a 'e’r‘aily showed a groatinc'rease in the crop of 1914. the report pointed out. stile production oi corn showed no ad. ‘vance. and the meat production show- ed a distinct decline. in this connec- tion the secretary points out a "to mentshle neglect oi live stock produc. tion in the South." The secretary’s report includes a tit- ’hle giving the census figures for 1829 and 1909. showing that in all products except corn and meat animals. there has been a marked increase in produc- tion during the ten year perlpd. (‘on- tinuing. the- -rep0rt says: “We know that the wheat crop oi 1914 or approximately 893.000.0041 .hushels. is the greatest ever produced in our history. and that the crops of oats. barley. rye, potatoes, tobacco ton crop. forecast in October at 15.- 340.000 bales. is the second largest. The apple crop, estimated at 259 000, reading cereals is estimated to have been nearly 5,000, 000 bushels. or about “28,000,000 bushels in excess oi the lcrop of 1913. For the country, as a iwhole. the crop yields. per acre, were 2.3 per cent. better than the average for the‘ past ten years The average yield.'per acre. 0! all the staple crops. was 9.4 per cent. greater than 1913. and. except tor corn, oats and flax~ seed, greater than the ten-year aver- age. , . "But. after all our oiiorts, while there is an increased diversification 0t agriculture and both a relative and ab- solute lncreaso in important products, such as wheat, iorngelcrops, iruits,; dairy products and poultry. we stillI absolute decrease in a number oi our important staple iood products, such as corn nudmeats. in the former. in the last 15 years. there has been no sub- stantial advance. in cattle. sheep and hogs. there has been an absolute do cllneéin cattle. from the census year of 1899 to that 01! 1909. of (rum 50.000.~ 000 head to 41,000,000; in sheep, 0t! from 61,000,000 to 52,000,000; in hogs.‘ 'got from 63,000,000 to as, 000 000 Since 1909 the tendency has been downward, and yet during the period since 13599 the population has increased over 20.- 000.000.
