Detailed figures and the results Sc
cured are contained in United States
Department OF Agriculture Bulletin
1888 entitled Farm and Terminal
Market Prices: Wheat, Corn and
Oats by J. w Strowbridge, Investi-
gator in Marketing A limited num-
Der OF copies OF the bulletin are
available for free distribution and
can be had by request to the United
States Department of Agriculture.
Washington, ID. G.
The bulletin contains nineteen
tables, each in two parts. which give
the number of ears of each class OF
grain reported sold, the weighted
average sale price of each class and
all classes combined at terminal. the
per cent. of farm sales. the weighted
average farm price. and. the difference
between farm and terminal prices
The data is given by months, in
cumulative form, and each table is
illustrated with granhs. Ten pages
of maps and graphs illustrate produc-
ton, quantity and direction of move
ment, sales. and prices. The text ex-
plains the method of computing both
farm and terminal prices, calls atten-
ton TO several price-making factors
which are illustrated with a chart and
gives review and summary OF the
! tables ~

Difference BetUeen Farm And
Terminal Prices OF Grain Sho.Dn

The average difference between
farm and terminal prices OF the total
estimated wheat crop during the crop
movement year l920-2l was l72 cents
pre- bushel. according to compilations
made by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture. The average
difference in corn prices was 81
cents and oats 81 cents. The total
difference on the three crops COM
bined was sc cents.
A weighted average basis OF compu-
tation was used in arriving at these
results. This is done by dividing the
total value of several articles pur-
chased al different prices by the total
number of articles purchased In
making the study. Minneapolis, Kan
sas City. st. Louis and Chicago were
the terminal markets used and farm
prices were those prevailing in the
ten leading wheat producing States.
The total estimated farm value of
the crop of wheat was found 10 be 81 i
per cent of the total estimated ter
minal market value. The total esti-
mated farm value OF the corn crop
was SO per cent of the total estimated
terminal market value, and the oai
crop 924 Der cent. The total farm
value OF the three croDs combined
was S7.5 per cent. of the terminal
value.
