He emphasized that despite
the increase in land under culti
vation, there was a land boom
under way which has taken pric
es to a dangerous height and
that many would find it diffi
cult to make farming pay under
the current prices of land, the
increase being 5 to 00 per cent
above '.he pre-war period.
Agriculture Main Work
Agricultural income in Jack
son county was approximately
16 million dollars, with friut re
presenting half of the income,
Fowler said, making agriculture

gation could be procured, has
started with sportsmen aggres
sively opposing dams which
they claim would interfere with
tourist business, another size
able income. Fowler told the
club. A new source of irriga
tion water is absolutely neces
sary for agriculture growth, the
speaker emphasized.
Conservation Praised
The soil conservation pro
gram which has particularly in
creased use of fertilizer was also
praised by the county agent,
who reminded his listeners that
about one-third of the county's
present 48,000 population are
farmers. As a further emphasis
of the value of land, he stated
that practically all of the coun
ty's present 48,000 population
are faimers. As a further em
phasis of the value of land, he
stated that practically all of the
county's income comes from the
land farming, forests and min
ing. He estimated that approxi
mately 28,000 more acres of
Jackson county land could be
cultivated; much of it so-called
marginal land now, if additional
water was available.
