Out of some $400 million col lected by farmers each year from the sales of their products, It is estimated that nearly half comes from sales outside the state's borders. This places agriculture second only to forestry as a nat ural resource, Mrs Horrell said. Total economic activity gen erated by Oregon farms has been measured at better than a half billion dollars, Mrs Horrell found as she studied USDA and other agricultural reports. And this is considering only cash receipts to farmers from the sale of their products, plus the value of these products in the first step of mar keting beyond the farm gate. If Oregon's farm products were traced further past the whole saler, jobber, and retailer, up to the point of the actual user considerably more value would be added, Mrs Horrell figured. For instance, the national groc ery bill last year for all foods produced on U S farms totaled $50.4 billion; when these same foods left the farm, they were valued at only $19.5 billion. Oregon farm people are also good buyers of equipment, fer tilizer, and other retail goods, Mrs Horrell said. Based on fig ures from the 1954 census, the state's farmers spend about one out of every five dollars that cross retail counters in the state.

While farms are getting fewer and larger, they're also getting more efficient, Mrs Horrell said. Before the War, one farm worker produced enough food and fiber for 11 people. Now, with Increas ed mechanization and use of other modern farming methods, one farm worker produces enough for 24 people.

Higher prices received by the state's farmers for the eggs and broilers, milk and milk cows, po tatoes, apples, hay, and some grains more than offset lower prices on turkeys, butterfat, meat animals, and some seeds, Mrs Horrell said. As a result, the combined average price of all farm products in Oregon rose 2 percent last month to a level 4 percent above a year ago. At the same time, national farm prices lost ground, pulled lower by oranges, hogs, cotton, corn, and tobacco, Mrs Horrell found as she studied reports from the U S department of agri culture. Higher national prices on fresh market vegetables, po tatoes, apples, and milk cush ioned the decline some, but not enough to prevent the slight sag. While prices received by farm ers over the nation were mov ing down, prices of things they buy moved up a shade to an other new all-time high, Mrs Horrell also found.
