OBSERVATIONS ON THE
AGRICULTURAL CHART

Washington, Nov. 6.=The pur-
chasing power of the American far
mer's dollar is greater now than at
any time during the past three years,
the department Of agriculture an
nounces, although still at a dispar-
ity compared with industrial products
The department review states that
farm prices for agricultural products
Gre higher at a seaso when the far
mers actually have something to sell.
The. review continues that "spring
wheat territory continues in distress
and is still trying to find some rem
edy. Farmers in this territory are
also discouraged at the low price of
potatoes and incidental crops. There
is considerable talk of Investigation
and especially of increasing dairy
stock"
Prices of crops as a group were
slightly higher in September than in
August, and % per cent higher than
in September a year ago. Corn and
potatoes register a decline.
The index of purchasing power of
farm products as a group is placed
at Is as compared with 70 in August
and Ga in September, 1922. The
u of hogs and sheep to market
continued heavy, although many
sheep were redistributed for feeders.
Exports of wheat including flour dur
ing the first nine months of 1923
were 100000 bushels than dur
ing the corresponding period of last
year.
