Svoboda said here today. Alfalfa ucreage has Increased 50 per gent und sweet’ clover 100 per cent.” At the same time corn, oats and barley have taken a 20 per cent jump in Whe last five years. The rye acreage has decreased ‘to- gether With the total Acreage de- voted to wheat. As in numerous other counties the durum wheat acre- age has increased but not enough to éffsct the falting off in spring wheat production. As compared with five years ago spring wheet shows a 7,000 acre decrease. Interest Shown Ip Livestock Greater interest is being taken by Eddy county farmers in livestock production, Svoboda said, attention being centered principally on ‘hogs and dairy cattle. Poultry and sheep also are listed as important farm ‘items now and some interest is being taken in beef cattle. Increasing ,use of pure-bred sires is improving the quality of all livestock. Hard times are given by Svoboda as the reason for the change by Eddy county farmers from a few principal crops to a large number of. different crops. if Co-operative marketing organiz: tions in ‘the county have had a mo or tess precarioug struggle, Svoboda said, but farmers geem to retain some confidence4n them as a*remedy for the farmers’ marketing ills. A general feeling of optimi noticeable this year, Svoboda s farmers finding credit better more attention being given to develop- ment operations, Eddy county had a good crop in 1925 and prospects for 1926 are fair, lve farms have been sold re- ", all to new settlers.
