HEAVIER EXPE ENSES| CUT FARM PROF |TS|
Financial Condition Of Crow CTS Placed At 70 By Fed
 eraI StatiStiCian
STATE CAPITAL BUREAU l
 THE AGE-HERALD

The increase In cotton acreage and the low yield will mean that the financial condition of the farmers will not be as good at the close of the harvest season this year as 1t would be under more favorable conditions, according to a statement issued today by F. w. Gist, federal agricultural satistician, which gave information obtained from bankers throughout Alabama in response to questions asked by the crop reporting service.
 One hundred and fifteen replies were received from the questionna1re and they represented 61 of the '61 counties, MT. Gist took the replies and prepared an average for the state. This average showed that the finan- cial condition of the farmers now may be placed at TO compared with a nor mai one hundred, that general busi- ness conditions may be placed at "A compared with normal 100, that ad- vances to farmers this year may be placed at SS compared with 100 for a period of five years and that Al per cent of the indebtedness created by farmers in the making of this year s crop must be carried over into the next harvest season.
 In interpreting the reports, MT. Gist said that "the increased acreage naturally brought with it the expen-
  of other farming operations. Accom- panying this condition, farmers bought very much more fertilizers and in other ways involved them selves in larger outlays of cash or credit in an attempt to make a good crop of cotton at high prices. The failure to accomplish the production of satisfactory yields has resulted in some instances in such small returns as will prevent the discharge oi credits and in others will leave the farmer without the surplus income to meet his desire or his needs"
 High prices may bring some re lief, according to Mir. Gist, who said another inquiry will be made after the harvest is ended. "These are present reflections of current condi- tions," was the comment. "A future inquiry Salong these same lines will be made after the harvest is over: It may be then that high prices will compensate in considerable measure for low yields of crops. It may on the other hand turn out that the in creased necessity for buying food and feed will influence the index In the other direction"
