decrease in their efficiency. All their
crops except wheat showed increases
in yield fromel0 to 40 per cent. With
wheat there was only slight decrease
The facts were, he says, that condi-
tons outside the farmers control were
responsible for the decrease in income.
They produced their crops with costs
at their figures for the years 1919 and
1920 shows that their farm expenses
increased by l3 per cent. in 1920 over
the level Of 1919, while receipts de-
creased 10 per cent. in spite of the in
crease in yields noted above.
With normal crops the farmer who
has reduced his inventories to the
present level of prices, as was done
with the farms considered above,
should be on firmer basis and with
better prospects for 1921 than in 1920.
1t is extremely improbable that farm
receipts Gan fall much lower, while
expenses in many essentials are al
ready considerably reduced, he says.
