PpHE funner produced just about as much stuff in 1 9 2 0 us in 1U--«,
A ivas worth a hundred nillllon dollars more, according to the annual year-
end survey of the Sears-Roebuck Agricultural Foundation. 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.
