Worst Is Over Benson Asserts at Farm Convention
Secretary of Agriculture Benson told the Future Farmers of America convention that agriculture is adjusting and the worst is behind us. He noted farm per capita income up 11 percent since 1950 and a population rise of three million yearly, boosting demand for higher protein. He cited the dairy industry revival under price supports and urged expanding opportunities for youth, warning education for modern farming varies by region. Elm trees on the University of Illinois campus face Dutch elm disease with all 1,600 elms expected to die in two years, reducing the Broadwalk arched by elms and removing 48 of 117 trees aged 81 years.
