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.
While expenses may increase en
