To The Meddler this seemed a some

may be, as Mr.. Newton of Newfane said,

certainly would be too bad if the men
who are likely lin most casesl to repre-
sent this county at Montpelier next
January hadn't already looked into state
questions enough to have some ideas on
the most important of them. The more
probable explanation is that the nomi-

Official Report.

Washington, d. c., July 25.--The
purchasing power, or exchange value
of farm products slumped four points
between March and June to ~ per
cent of the 1918 basis in the latter
month, according to statistics made
public to-day by the department Of
agriculture. The buying power Of
farm products in terms of other prod
ucts stood at 70 per cent in March,
having advanced from 65 per cent in
January, which was a rise Of three
points over the low mark touched in
November, 1921.
From December to March, the Stats
tics disclosed. the output Of farms in
creased in price more rapidly than did
commodities the farmers needed to
buy, the percentage climbing to II by
February and five points higher by
March. Since that time, however, the
price movements have been reversed,
farm products gaining in less degree
than those things required by the
farmer, though more gradually than
the preceding movement, the index
dropping one point for April, two for
May and one for June.
