GATE CITY JOURNAL, f HÙR&, DECEMBER 27,1984 Products Bring Higher Prices Washington—The total crop yield of the United States in 1934 was the low est in 16 years the annual report of the department of agriculture revealed. The value of the crop, however, due to increased prices and AAA benefit payments, was above that of last year, the department’s 500,000 crop reporters said. The report, inventory of almost everything that grows, gives the har vested acreage, production and value of every crop from wheat and cotton to prunes and lespedeza seed. Not since 1918 has a similar report shown such a small total yield from the nation’s fields, orchards, gardens and vineyards. The drouth and the federal crop reduction progam cut deeply into the market basket.
