The report points out that this is one of the principal factors in the present farm situation, as farm prices usually fall faster and farth er in post-war depressions than prices in general. As a result, farm income gets out of line with the cost of farming, and farmers have great difficulty to pay interest and taxes, operate the farm business, and maintain their families. The money cost of most things farmers spend their incomes for has come down materially during the last year, but the exchange value of farm products for the things which make up the cost of farm ing has decreased, according to in dex numbers given in the circular.
