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-

30 level, against a probable average
of 86 for 1937.
"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.
