FARMING COMING INTO ITS OWN

Those who have based their arguments about international
and domestic economics on exports of farm products might do
well to check up on some of the figures.
Statistics show that the exports of leading American food
stuffs in the twelve months ending June 30 had a wholesale value
of 1882 100000, which is just about twice the value of similar ex-
ports in 1913, when the export market was normal.
Of course, the scale of prices is generally higher than it was
then. and some allowance must be made for that, but on the whole
it can be seen that the export trade in agricultural products has
picked up remarkably since the postwar depression.

success is just around the corner-From The Montana Farmer.

lamps). This is equivalent to about 85 cents per capita per year,
