Oreg 0 n J0u r n a 1 year’s agricultural products were worth $9,000,000,000 to the farmers. The govern ment used farm values in getting figures for this total. Assuming that the farmers kept one-third of the products for their own use, the consumers paid more than $13,000,- 000,000 for what the producers received $0,000,000,000. The cost <>£ getting the year’s products from producers to consumers amounted to the enormous sum of $7,000,000,000. The real problem to deal with is not high cost of living. It is HIGH COST OF SELLING. In the last twenty-five years our agricultural exports have increased 60 per cent, while onr commercial exports have increased nearly 400 per cent.
