Real Farm Income Rising Slightly Substantial improvement in the relationrfnp between farm income and farm costs in Oregon is shown by data given in the annual report of the agricurtural economics sec tion of the Oregon agricultural ex tension service on the general out look for farming in 1935 whidh has just been released for distribution through the offices of the county agents. "Farm income from sales and adjustment payments combined is expected to be larger during the first half of 1935 than during the first half of 1934 but after mid year the situation is more uncer tain." according to the circular. However with higher prices for an imal products expected and a great er volume of crops for market prob ably, it is hkely that farm income will be maintained. In regard to the cost outlook, the report indicates some further' advance during 1935, based on the trend of farm and family expenses.

Its simple heavy construc tion, its quick acceler ation and its simplified transmission, give the “Caterpillar” a smooth flow of power that makesit unusuallyeasy to handle.- But grain farmers find that die sel engines not only give them more power, but also save as much as 70 percent on gaso line tractor fuel costs The “Caterpillar” Die sel saves in two ways It burns less fuel per acre worked, and it burns fuel that costs only about half the cost of gasoline. The "Caterpillai" is an investment in econom ical power.
