LARGE CROP TENDS
 ID DROP PRICES
Reduction for Farmers Seen as
 Bumper Harvest Comes

New York. Sept. LA bumper harvest such as the U. S. department of agriculture predicted in its Aug. Ast crop report. is not necessarily a favorable symptom for business. ac. cordins to the Industrial Digest. Too plentiful crops. the magazine says, may mean. | reduction in the prices of farm products and there- fore ! further curtailment of the fafriers buying power. If industrial production Is not increased to a larger degree than farm production, the effect on conditions Is likely to be unfavorable.
 Crop About Average.
 Tt appears, from the latest crop report, that our position this fall will be midway between the second and third possibilities. The crops will be considerably above the average of tho past few years but not go much great CT As to threaten a radical drop in agricultural prices.
 The situation Is made a little worse by the threatened curtaiiment of the industrial production due to the shortage of fuel and the railway con. sestion which arc threatened as re- suits of the present strikes. This may further increase the spread between industrial prices and farm prices to the disAdvantag1 of the farmer, re- sulung in failure, of the farmers de- mand for industrial products to re- new itself as 1t should if recovery is to be complete.
 Farm prices have been dropping fast enough during the past year in comparison with industrial prices and the situation is already bad enough for the farmer. Bradstreet's general average of commodity prices for August 1 was 12.o6s8, compared with $l1.o576 on the same date last year-an increase of $1.o112. During
New Britain herald., 1922-09-01

the same period the prices of bread stuffs rose only $o.90s1. livestock rose o,oo4o, provisions dropped 0.075o, and fruits dropped 0.0302. The spread. therefore, is now widening.
 Business Better
 Business conditions in this country will be better when farm prices are higher in relation to industrial pro- ducts than they are today. Thus 1t appears that the trend as indicated by Bradstreet and forecast by crop reports is not entirely favorable.
 "Unquestionably some encourage ment is to be found in the wheat crop report. The August forecast for the total crop of winter and spring wheat combined Is s0b,o0o,000 bush- els, compared with a forecast of 817,- 100000 in July. crop of 796.00o.- 900 bushels last year and an average of 7s9, 100000 bushels for the five years from 1s1s-1920. Thus the wheat crop is above the Average, but not startingly large.
 The world wheat crop this year, according to the best preliminary is smaller than the expected demand.
 This would indicate that there will be O good demand for American wheat. and therefore that the price may be expected to stand up. The arge scale farmers of the grain coun- try will profit chiefly by this The bumper crops of other products, also, will be more damaging to the little farmers than to the big fellows. The 'anches may h1 able to dispose of heir big crops .in bulk before the break:~btt the little farmer s faced with the prospect of seeing lis potatoes drug on the market md letting his apples rot on the ,round.
 "On the favorable side of the scale must be reckoned the middlemAl who will benefit from the good wheat sit- 'ation. But the small farmer, who ,as been in bad way for several ears, can hardly be expected to re- over this fall. And he is the mau | whose lack of money is keeping the | emaining frozen credits unliquidated, l nd preventing the retail demand l rom booming as actively as industry | would like to see it boom.
