In 1877 the average value of the hay
crop in the United States was So go per
ton. The following year it dropped to
81 90, and in 1879, the year next ensu'
ing, it jumped up to 80 80 per ton.
Again. In 1901, when this country
was firmly on gold basis, the average
value of the hay crop was 80 40per ton.
In 1899 it fell to SO 78 per ton, and in
1903, it rose to SO 68 per ton. Last year
the average value was $S SO per ton.
Assuming that the fall in prices is
due to the "crime of 1873" how are
these fluctuations to be accounted for?
Will some Bryanite explain also why it
is that the average value of the hay
crop per ton was greater in 1895, when
we were on. gold basis, than it was
in 1878, when gold was at premium.
Hay has undoubtedly declined in
price since 1878, but why should it not
have done soY Apart from cheaper
methods of production and cheaper
rates Of transportation, the annual hay
crop increased from 25,0s5, 100 tons in
1878 to 65,766,15S tons in 1893. Last
year it amounted to about $4,000, 900.
At the same time the number Of
horses in the United States increased
only from o,999 ,47O in 1878 to 5,o93,31
in 1896. 1t is estimated that there are
nearly 100000 fewer horses in this
country today than there were three
years ago.
These plain facts and figures should
not be hard to comprehend. Let the
farmer study them before he allows
himself to be hoodwinked by free silver
demagogsm.
