BUYING POWER
GREATER NOW

NEW YORK. Aug 25 That the
buying power OF the farmer taken aa
a whole. win be better this year than
last. is the opinion expressed today
by the Brookmirc FarccaRtor The
opinion ia based on an analysis Of
the various groups Of farm products,
and the probable trend Of prices thru
the crop year.
THE dairy farmer and the meat
farmer arc receiving, and in all prob.
ability win receive. prices for their
products which compare favorably
with those OF the last crop year" the
statement declares The income Of
these two groups constitutes approx.
mately so per cent Of the total farm
income,
Among the farmers depending pri.
marily upon crops, the situation Ia
on the average no worse than year
ago, with the exception OF the wheat
farmer. Altho cotton prices have
dropped materially from their peak.
they are still probably above tho
average received during the last crop
year, and the materially larger crop
Of the present year should put the
growers in better relative position.
THE wheat farmer undoubtedly
has been badly hit, but the prom.
inenco which has been given to the
decline in wheat prices is out OF all
proportion TO the Importance of the
crop to the total agricultural income
Of the United States on the aver
age. wheat income constitutes about
s per cent Of the total. The decline
from the high point Of the last crop
year in price has been about 25 per
cent. 80 that the gross income OF the
farmer from lower wheat prices is
affected only about per cent.
Moreover, as the principal corn
area corresponds with the principal
winter wheat area, many of the
states In which returns from whoa.
will be poor, will find some compon.
sation In much better prices for corn
while, In comparison with pre-.
war years, It is doubtless true that
tho farmers Of the country arc In a
dlsndynntogeous economic position,
in comparison with year ago, tho
present basis would warrant the pre-.
dictlon that the total income viii be
somewhat larger. Sales figures for
the agricultural territory during the
last crop year show that satisfac.
tory volume Of goods was absorbed.
ON the basis OF the income indIca.
tions for this crop year, there Is no
reason TO believe that buying activity
VIII be any lower. On the other
hand, II ~ extremely probable that
some Increase in amounts taken will
be seen

LIFE INSURANCE.
SALES GREATER
July of This Year Shows Big
Lead Over 1922

NEW YORK. Aug. IS. sales OF
ordinary life insurance during July
were substantially greater this year
Than last according TO figures com
piled by the Life Insurance Sales Re.
search Bureau OF New York. over
1856, 600, 900 worth Of new business
was done In this country by 4s com.
panies which. in 1922. had over 80
per cent OF the ordinary life insur.
ance in force. This is a gain Of is
per cent over last years sales.
Judging By past experience. the bu.
reau states that il Is normal for the
sales OF life insurance to fall off
about 10 per cent in July from the
June sales This year was no excep-
ton. and the sales dropped from over
s5is. 100000 worth to s4s5 900 900. a
decrease Of 10 per cent.
"As all Of this decrease may be ex.
planned as due TO regular seasonal in

compared to s2,s43. $4,000 for the
same period Of last year. gain 'ot
10 per cent.
The gain made in July BY the
country as whole was due princi.
paIIy to large gains in the Far.west.
ern and Southern states. altho there
were only five states that did not
show some increase.
.In the Pacific states there was a
phenomenal increase in the sales in
July which amounted to s3s. s4i. 900.
or slightly over so per cent above the
sales in July OF last year. Washing
ton led the country by showing a
gain Of So per cent. The Pacific
states have gained 20 per cent during
the first seven months OF this year
over the same period Of last year.
This is greater gain than was re.
ported by any other group Of states
for the same period"
