ARM iNCDME
AND COSTS TO
RISE IN 1941
Grot farm income in Oregon
In 1042 should be materially
above tho 1941 .level If present
trends continue, although net In
come will not Increase propor
tionately been use of rising farm
cost, according to an analysis
mode by tho extension service
at Orngon State college and pub
lished In the current agricultur
al situation and outlook report
Complete copies of the report
may be had at any county ex
tension office.
The demand outlook for farm
products In 1842 is even better
than In the exceptionally favor
able year now ending. More
business activity, a rising gener
al price level, and increased de
mand for some oroduct for ex
port all will play a part in the
demand ituntion for next year,
the report shows.
Further Increase In domestic
payrolls and military employ
ment Is expected to bring an In
crenso in the per capita con
sumption of food. On the whole,
it ii e .peeled that national in
come In 1042 may exceed that of
1941 by 10 or IS per cent. With
the British government expect
ing to obtain nbout one-fourth of
it food supplies from America
next year, approximately 8 to 10
per cent of the farm production
of the United States will be ex
ported, or nbout twice the ex
ports of 1041.
Advance estimates indicate
that the 1041 gross farm Income
will exceed that of 1040 by about
25 per cent, mnklng It the great
est since 1920. Tho increase in
farm costs, however, is expected
to be a little more in 1942 than
It wag In 1941. The average of
about 13 per cent increase thlp
year was cnuscd mostly by high
er prices for labor, rent and feed
In 1942 the increases are expect
ed to be felt In purchases of seed,
automobiles and tractors, .build
ing materials, feed, containers
and other Items of equipment
and supplies.
The Oregon fnrm price Index
at mid-October showed the gen
eral level of farm prices at 94
per cent of the 1926-30 average
and 125 per cent of the 1910-14
figure.

Over the west generally, cattle
are In very good to excellent con
dition. showing the highest con

tendency to delay marketings

viding an abundant supply of
green feed .and are in the high
est condition on record for No
