PROSPERITY is
INDICATED BY
RECENT SURVEY

Market facts of interest TO Idaho
grain. livestock and beet producers
have recently been compiled by the
commercial department OF the Idaho
Technical Institute. In most cases
comparison has been drawn be
tween prices at present and those
several years ago to show prios
trends.
The 1928 wheat crop is estimated
at 7S9 million bushels compared
with SIS million bushels in 1929
The market at the present time Is
slightly higher than last year at
this time. The world export surplus
is about so per cent greater than
1922 which is due TO good crops in
competing countries excepting India
in which the crop is poor. Wheat
sold for s2.lS in 1921; for SIC in
1913.
Hides are low at l5c as against
22c last year and zoe in 1913. The
potato crop is short about fifty
million bushels and the price is bet
ter, soc 10 Sl.l0 per cwt. Chicago.
Sugar beets as a crop are estimated
at six and one-half million tons com
pared with five and one-quarter mil
lion tons in 1922.
Western range cattle have suffer
ed most In beef market. but the
prices generally have shown an inn
provement gaining about $1.00
over last year lows. Best killing
beef brings around IL hc against
1914 last year and Sac in 1921.
Wool is priced around SAC pound
which is Sc above the mean price
for 1922. Consumption has fallen
off recently and further decline is
possible.
Business volume in September and
early October was greater than a
year ago, and was especilly notice
able in mailorder sales, the increase
In this business being about 81 per
cent over 1929. Indications point
to a healthy fall trade with increas-
ed purchasing power on the part OF
the farmer, especially in the middle
