I slight increase in the cost of
things farmers must buy brought
' the parity ratio down to 85 per
cent, one point off the parity
ratio of mid-June.
The department said low
j prices received by farmers for
fruit, meat animals, and com
mrrcial vegetables were respon
sible for the decline. A sharp
; increase in potato prices and
higher prices for milk and
j chickens were not enough to
j offset declines in other com-
modities.
I The r!f fn production costs 1
j was the result of an increase
! in prices of family living items.
' Part of this increase was offset
;by a slight reduction in the sea
sonally adjusted index of farm
w age rates. Prices paid for other
;arm production items averaged
! the same as in June.
Average hog prices for mid
July were 515.20 Der hundred-
