PRICES NOT CUT BY
LARGER PRODUCTION
Interesting Figures Given by Bu-
reau of Crop Estimates.
Abnormal Conditions Created by War
and Other Causes Have Imposed
Special Relationship of Prices
and Value.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture.)
1t is often said that when the farm
er has a bumper crop the price is so
low that the total value of the crop
is below that of usual crop, but the
abnormal conditions created by the
war and other causes have imposed n
special relationship of crop prices and
total value to the production of 1918
in comparison with 1917.
In the estimates of the bureau of
crop estimates it appears that larger
production has been followed by low
er price and lower total value only
for barley, cabbage, onions, and broom
corn, while larger production has been
followed by higher price and hence
by higher total value for wheat, buck
wheat, flaXSeed, rice. sweet potatoes,
tobacco, apples, oranges, and cram
berries.
AS is often the fact, lower produc-
ton is associated with higher price
and higher total value for oats, hay,
sugar beetS, peaches, and sorghum
raised for strip, but exceptions to this
relationship are found in potatoes and
hops, both of which had lower pro-
duction and lower price.
Rye, cotton, the kafirs and peanuts,
had higher production in 1918 than
in 1917 and lower price, but not low
enough to prevent higher total crop
value; whereas these conditions were
reversed for corn and beans, both of
which had smaller crops and higher
prices, but not high enough to prevent
a lower total crop value.
