Reporting on Agriculture, Charles Hockersmith related some interesting facts about Cuba. He and Mrs. Hocker smith visited their son who is stationed there a short time ago. .He said there were few tractors in Cuba. The main crop is sugar cane, and in har vesting the canes are piled systematically on wagons and hauled from the fields by oxen. He also told of seeing a house being built and how the thatched roofs were made from palm leaves. He had seen banana and papaya in bloom while there and that now the fruit was ripening. There are some large herds of beef cattle. In speaking of the people there, he said there were only two classes, the wealthy and the very poor. The wages are low and work mostly sea sonal for these poorer people, and their homes are very pri mitive and sparsely furnished with only the barest necessi ties, and were quite a contrast to the huge up-to-date United ( States Air Force base there, where their son is located. In speaking of the grain crop in the U.S. he said it ap peared now that the middle west and northwest were going to have one of the big gest crops on record. Some hay had been spoiled by the rain and that the first crop of alfalfa was selling for about $12 per ton.
