Governors of Agricultural States Make Statements Public Today

SPECUL TO THE TIMES XEW YORK, April 10. Conviction that the farmers of the United States have "turned the corner" and are now started on the road to normally prosperous conditions was tho consensus of statements made by governors of leading- agricultural states made public here today. The assurance from governors that farming condition? were again on the upgrade, were riven in response to an Inquiry by K. A. Strout, head of a national farm agency with headquarters in this city. They came from agricultural states representative of all section. of the country from New Kr.g-land to the plains states of the. Middle West and from the Great Iakes to Virginia aui Mississippi. In making theso reports public, Mr. Strout expressed the belief that they reflected, accurately a widespread condition extending- throughout the farming- etatos from the At. Isni'.c. seaboard to the Rocky Mountains.

Some of thi governors not only asserted that the farming- situation was improved but forecast Imminent improvement in tho industry generally. One of the most ovtlmistic of all the statements came from Governor Harry I. Davis of Ohio, who telegraphed : "Our Department of Agriculture has made a survey of farm conditions in Ohio. Glad that agriculturally Ohio farmers are on the upgrade. Improvement in price of farm products and improved marketing conditions have given Ohio farmers renewed ' hope and 1922 t.,lve3 every indication of being a more prosperous year than the past. "Ohio is in as sound condition as any state in the. Union. We have tured the corner and are going forward agriculturally. industrially and commercially." Extracts f.-om the messages of some cf the other governors follow: Governor "Warren T. SIcCray of Indiana.; "Conditions are Improved and prospects brighter In Indiana. On the whole, the outlook is good for an early return fco normalcy." Governor William C Sproul of Pennsylvania: "I feel that all conditions point to better times for agriculture in Pennsylvania. There may be some delay due to disturbance incident to the threatened coal strike, etc.. but I feel that much better industrial conditions are imminent and that our farmers, beir.g so close to the markets, will benefit. ' renn: lvania is making great progress in fruit growing, truck raising and dairying, and the enterprising farmer who exercises csre in the selection of his farm end works it Intelligently is bound to gt along."

Newberryism is to be the big issue at the Republican senatorial primaries in Michigan this summer, and if Sen. Towcsend is nominated to succeed himself it will doubtless be the big issue at ths November election. Townsend stands for Newberry. He will be opposed at the primaries by Congressman Patrick H. Kelley, who condemns the methods which Newberry was elected to the senate. Kelley's leading backers are former Gov. Osborn and Edsel Ford. The Democrats are urging Mayor Couzens of Detroit to enter the race as their nominee.

we don't realize how much the onetime rural district of Greater New York have grown. I was amazed to learn the other day that Queens, Long Island, has doubled its -population In the ipast ten yeaers, shows 200 per cent gain in new buildings In that time, and that its factories have grown in number from "71 to 1500. - That sounds like a fair little city all by itself, doesn't it? TJie lyong Island railroad reflects this suburban growth by having carrier 80,000,00 passengers in 1921. LUCY JEAXXE TRICE.

Seventy-five millions is the estimate r"it by the federal autroritles on the New York real estate owned by the late Baron William Waldorf A .'tor, and composing a large part of his estate.

We are getting several new names In our theatrical season. The night after the opening of "Voltaire," written by two brand new young girl -playwrights, we had "Just Because." a musical comedy by three equally unknown, and we understand, equally young girls, it Is a sweet, melodious production, without a tremendous amount of pep, 'but with several pretty songs. Whether it will be too "sweet" and its lack of pep too acute for New York remains to be seen.

souri: "The corner has definitely i been turned. Missouri farmers being close to three great terminal j markets, Kansas City, St. Louis and I St. Joseph, have been more fortu-J

nate than farmers more remote from terminal markets.' Governor E. Lee Trinkle of Virginia: "Agricultural conditions are recovering from deflation to some extent. Farmers are looking forward now as prices advance. "The wholesome effect of the late disastrous conditions is shown in the farmer's determination to organize and practice business principles in production and marketing. "He is preparing to diversify, to grow more food and feed crops and remove himself from the uncertainty of a one-crop dependence. "The Virginia Department of Agricultural had more Inquiries for farm land from all sections of the Union during the past two months than ever in its history." Governor Baxter of Maine: "I consider the agricultural situation of Maine more favorable. "The inquiry for Maine farms is five times as great as one year ago. Unquestionably the business f farming will be very attractive in Maine in the next ten years." 1 Channing H. Cox, Governor of Mar-sachuse; ts: "High long-haul freight rates have created greater local demand for farm products in Massachusetts. The development of specialities, such as raising mlik, fruit, onions, tobacco, poultry and cranberries bring good returns." Lee M. Russell. Governor of Mlssissipi: "We believe Mississippi today, with her cheap fertile land and mild c'lmate. offers the greatest opportunity in the nation for wide-awake farming and business men." Samuel R- McKelvle, Governor of Nebraska: "Nebraska has turned the corner and )3 now well on the way back to normal and permanent prosperity. 'The farm value of principal agricultural products In Nebraska has increased $63,357,00 between November 1, 1921. and March 1.1922. "While the prices for farm products have increased, the prices of things for which these products must be exchanged have declined. This readjustment of exchange values Is of basic importance and is perhaps the most significant indication of a return to normal prosperity. "There is profit now in nearly all branches of farming."

NEW YORK. April 6. Every one said that the war had done much toward yiping out elaborate an', "dressy" yervice: that footmen and butlers and liveries and other signs of "snobbery" were going into the rifcard because of that upheaval. Now comes one of New York's fashionable tailors and asserts that liveries were never so much worn in this city as today. "Many Americans who used tosneer at flunkies now apparently cannot get enough of them," he says. "The increased demand is coming from those people and those who cater to them. Among our best customers are the motion picture theaters. The most fashionable theaters or the opera are eontent with footmen in quiet jieveries or none at all. But the movie theaters muf-t have servants on the sidewalks and in the Joboy worthy of royalty. We are constantly being urged to find something more formal than usual."
