Higher Parity on j
Farm Commodities
Affects Taxpayer
The upward trend of the "par
ity index of farm costs is of
concern to taxpayers as well as
farmers, says U R. Breithaupt.
Oregon State college extension
agricultural economist, who
points out that the 49-polnt (27
percent) rise in that index the
past 12 months means that the
'support price" level is just that
much higher than a year ago.
Taxpayers are interested be
cause the government price floor
guarantee of 90 percent of par
ity for the basic and "Steag
all" commodities must be chang
ed up or down under present
laws to keep pace with the par
ity index until the last day of
19-18, two years after the end of
the war was officially proclaim
ed. Other commodities may or
may not be given price support
Farmers are also concerned
because the parity index is a
general indicator of the trend of
farm production and living ex
penses. The 27 percent advance
in the index from mid-March
1946 to mid-March 1947 signifies
that much increase in the ex
penses for an average farm. Be
cause some farms use more than
others of some of the cost items,
expenses of some have increased
more and others less, however,
Breithaupt explains.
It is especially significant that
the parity index rose 16 points
during the first quarter of 1947,
four times as fast as during the
same period of 1946, he adds.
The rapidity of the rise was due
principally to higher prices be
ing paid by farmers for commod
ities used in production and fam
ily living. The average cost
of production goods at mid
March was 28 percent higher
and rural living costs 31 percent
higher than a year ago.
Although farm costs for inter
est, insurance and taxes have
not increased as fast as prices
for goods, all are higher than a
year ago. Farmers are borrow
ing more and paying slightly
higher average rates of interest.
Higher replacement costs for
building have resulted in in
creased insurance costs for many
farms. Tax levies on farm prop
erty generally over the nation
are 10 to 15 points higher than
a year or two ago.

Band Fund Growing
But Goal Far Short
Donations to the uniform fund
for the Heppner school band are
coming in slowly and while
some generous amounts have
been given, the goal appears to
be afar off. The fund at present
is $513, which is approximately
one-fourth of the sum needed to
equip a 40-piece organization.
Of the total amount to date,
$105 has been given ,by individ
uals and the balance by organizations.
