HEPPNER GAZETTE TIMES, HEPPNER, OREGON, THURSDAY, OCT. 28, 1937 PAGE NINE Higher Farm Incomes For 1937 Predicted Although the index of the general level of farm prices in Oregon has dropped approximately 10 percent since June and, at 80 percent of the 1926-1930 average, is 3 points under September 1936, agricultural income in Oregon during the year 1137 is expected to exceed that of 1936 ma terially. Such are the conclusions to he drawn from data given in a re -view of the agricultural situation just released by the Oregon State Col lege agricultural extension service. The gain in agricultural income is attributed to an expected yearly av erage larm price level running around 12 per cent over the 1936 year average, and to a prospective increase of about 3 percent in the gross volume of agricultural produc tion. Data in the report show that farm prices were at a relatively high level during the first half of 1937, declining during the summer and fall months under new crop influ nces. In general, the season has been very favorable for crops, both in Oregon and in the country as a whole. Although the report states that the estimates are quite preliminary in nature, the increase in total ag ricultural income in Oregon in 1937 over 1936 may approximate 15 per cent and may amount to as much as $20,000,000. Including the value added by agricultural manufactur ing operations and farm sales of nu merous specialty farm products, as well as income from the principal crop and animal products, total ag ricultural incoine is expected to reach $150,000,000 or more in 1937 the greatest since 1929. "Considering the purchasing pow er of the dollar, Oregon's agricul tural income in 1937 has the appear ance of being even better than in 1929, if present prospects work out," says the report. "In 1929, the United States index of prices paid by farm ers averaged 101 percent of the 1926- Want Ads Chas. Smith residence for sale. Duvall & Eubanks, Hotel Heppner Bldg.

"On the other hand, however, the census shows that the income of 1937 will be divided between a con siderably greater number of farm operators in Oregon, consequently the purchasing power per farm fam ily has not increased to the same ex tent as total agricultural income." Oregon Traffic Deaths A series of weekly articles on the problem of Highway Safety by Earl Snell, Secretary of State. The Chicago fire of sixty-six years ago has come down in history as one of the greatest of national disasters. Few people realize that more people were killed in traffic accidents in Oregon during the last three months of 1936 than met death in this his toric catastrophe. A horrified nation years ago was shocked to hear that 107 had fallen victims to the flames; yet day after day last year the record of traffic accidents rolled up, prac tically unnoticed until a total of 133 was reached. This is a daily average of approx imately one and one half fatalities every twenty-four hours, on the streets and highways of our own state. The seriousness of the situation must be brought home to every driv er of a motor car. The newspapers of Oregon are cqoperating with my department in a manner that is high ly appreciated to bring this about; the high schools of the state are ac tively working on a solution of the problem; enforcement agencies are devoting more and mare time to traf fic; and the state-wide program of organization in the various commu nities is well under way, under my direction. The problem is so big, the need for its correction so great, that no ef fort is too great to put forth for its solution. I am very hopeful that Oc tober, November and December of this year will show a record that will be much better than last year's, and' ask the cooperation of all in a de termined effort to reduce Oregon's traffic deaths.
