The average of all farm prices Is now 154 per cent of the pre-war average, ns compared with 149 per cent Inst year at this time. The real significance of this Is indicated tnore clearly by the relation of returns from the sale of farm products to Wholesale prices of commodities which the farmer buys and consumes. This means, states the Foundation, that the purchasing power of the farmer’s dollar has risen from 66, the lowest point following the war, to 90 for 1925 and Indicates that agriculture Is recovering. The low peak, prior to the war, of values of farm products came In 1914 with D valuation of $11,517,000.000.00. The high peak values for farm products came during the war with a gross total of $24,854,000,000 for 1919. Then came the four critical years In which farm prices fell below cost of production and values became correspondingly low. In 1924 the total value of all the farm products raised In the United States was estimated at $17,355,000,000. This year the production Is estimated at $17,454,000.000. The cash Income to the farmer for his 1925 work will be right around $10,000,000,000. OREGON NEWS ITEMS CF SPECIAL INTEREST B rief Resum e of Happenings of the Week Collected for O u r Readers.
