Complete copies of tne report mav be had at any county exten sion office. The demand outlook for farm products In 1942 ls even better than in the exceptionally favor able year now ending. More busi ness activity, a rising general price level, and Increased demand for some products for export all will play a part in the demand situation for next year, the re- port shows.

Tne increase farm costs, however, is expected h u liitlo mure in 1942 than it was in 1911. The average of about 15 per cent Increase this vear was caused mostly by high I or prices for labor, rent, and I rnri tn in.19 ihn increases are expected to be felt in purchases of sood, automobiles and tractors, building materials, feed, contain ers, and other Items of equip ment and supplies. families Increased home canned, goods up to 400 quarts and home produced foods as high as $500 during the time they carried on the project," she explained.
