said This increase has been brought
about largely through the decline in
the price of commodities which he
buys.
While prices received for grain and
hogs have made substantial advance
during the last three mnthso, the
prices received for dairy products and
eggs, which comprise more than 80
per cent of the income of the Ohio
farmer, have fallen off, Professor Fall
coner said.
Taking the state as a whole, Ohio
farmers are now receiving prices
which average % per cent above the
pre-war normal, according to him
while at the same time, he asserted
the farmer is paying a price 81 PEI

supplies.
