HUGE sftRINKA0E IN VALUE
Last Years Crop Still In Bins . u
Million Loss

Shrinkage In values Of last years
crops still in the bins ON Kansas
farms represent a loss Of aproxi-
mately $75,000,000 to Kansas farm
ers, comparing prices at present with
those prior to when the slump set IN
last fall. This figure Is based on Il
recent report issued by ]. c. Mohler,
secretary Of the state board Of agri-
culture, showing the enormous
amounts Of grain still unsOld.
On the 25,s5O,OO0 bushels Of
wheat, or 10 per cent of the entire
last years crop, the price In the last
six months has deteriOrated on an
average of 81 bushel; on the &c.
352, 900 bushels of corn, AT per
cent of last years crop still on hand,
the price has shrunk an average OF
more than fifty cents, and on the 3D.
$4,000 bushels Of oats still In the
farmers bins, the price shrinkage
has been SO 1-3 cents bushel-an
aggregate shrinkage on these hold
ings alone of 65,528,0O0, while the
decreased value on other retained
grain crops would aggregate more
than $1O,OO0,O eO according to Sec
rotary Mohler. This does not take
into consideration the decreases In
prices on grains marketed during the
past few months.
