Crops have been good, on the whole.
Prices of the major crops are mostly
considerably higher. While there has
been a corresponding advance in the
prices of the things the farmer must
buy, the total sum which farmers will
receive for the crops of this year is
greater by billion and a half dollars
or more than that which they received
for the crops of last year. This will
certainly mean better times on the
farm, and farm folks will be able tC
ease up little on the grinding econ
omy they were forced to practice the
preceding year.
