What the Farmer Makes.

The total income of all the workers of
the nation in the year 1900 was SIS, $685.
100000. Of this immense value, s., $685.
| 100000 was produced on the farms. Dur
families that obtained their living from
| these farms. This is an average income
of $643 a year to each family The other
families of the nation, numbering 1O, 1926,
593, or nearly twice as many as the farm
ing class, enjoyed total income of $14,-
960, 100000, more than four times the
value of the product of the farm. This
was an average of 1,463 to each family
not on the farm.
That the agriculturist should get less
than half the income of the mechanic, the
clerk and other non-rural workers would
seem at first thought pretty poor show
ing ior the farm. But there are some
weighty compensations, says George B.
Waldron, the statistician, in Mahin's
Magazine.
The farmers income was exclusive of
house rent. The city man must pay from
10 to % per cent. of his income to the
landlord. The food bill Of the average
city family is above 40 per cent. of the
total income; they pay all the profits from
the farmer through various middlemen to
the. corner grocer.
With these various considerations il
may easily be seen that an annual income
OF $4OO on the farm represents as much or
more than the city man gets.
