FARMER Axe CONSUMER.

A was forscsStsd, the value OF al
farm products for the last year In
GLIDING live stock and poultry, exceeds
$4,000, 000. 900. This IL the farm value.
What consumers viii have to pay for
such Of Il A. they buy, may be In
ferred from the statement In the re-
port that there u an increase In the
cost Of these products from producer
70 consumer Of 5 to 500 per cent. 1t
may b. remarked that none OF the 5
per cent increases are enjoyed BY the
ordinary consumer. but he has the
privilege of paying the 500 per cent
ones exclusively. Prices average on
the farm 20.7 per cent. higher than
they did = year ago, This is why q
shorter crop In total bulk is bringing
tho farmers more money. and why
the consumer u paying for the short
age. II must not. however, be as
sumed that this increase in total farm
value means general prosperity among
the farmers. says the Denver Post.
Those who lost their corn and oats
crops. or had them reduced to half a
crop or less OF inferior quality, and
who had to feed stock In summer and
fall because Of poor pasture. II they
were not SO fortunate-or foresighted,
which 10 better-as to have other crops
that yielded we'll, are not getting their
share Of benent from the high prices.
The income Is too unevenly distrib-
uted to cause general. rejoicing among
the farmers. while there can be no re-
joicing At all on the part OF consum-
ers. Greater yields Of the crops cut
short by tho drought Of last summer
would not have given the farmers a
larger total income, but would have
made tho burden upon consumers
lighter. thus being better for the far.
