Soil-Range Building Rates of Payment
Under AAA Set-Up for 1937 Announced
By Extension Director at Oregon State
; LAKEjLAND, . Pla.. :. Jan. 21.-
(AP) Florida struggled with the
problem of its greatest "year' of
plenty," brought on largely by a
"spring , that enmp in winter.
; Ideal; weather conditions doubled
the production of nearly everythin;
the state produces. The difficulty
of disposing of it profitably . has
yonied growers and cooperatives,
and the problem is not yet solved.
: Citrus fruits : presented one ,of
the greatest problems. The total
production of oranges,- grapefruit
and tangerines for the current sea
son was estimated at 38,700,000
boxes, an increase of 11,200,000
boxes over last season.
Cabbages are no plentiful the
bureau of agricultural statistics
said "prices have been too low
to warrant shipment." Spring
beans totaled 2,560.000 bushels
compared with 1,800,000 last year.
The celery crop was estimated at
2,062,000 crates, whereas last y em
it was 1,722,000 crates, and straw
berries increased by 200,000 crates
to 644,000. A bumper tomato crop
Is in the offing.
Another record was being made
in the stute as the season pro
gresses the greatest amount of
canning the state has known. Sev
