Roger ". Babs0n Estimates Effect of
Recent Sharp Advances in Corn,
Cotton, Wheat and Hog Prices.

with the actual crop harvested last
year, we find decrease of II per cent
in the probable production of corn,
despite larger acreage. The price
and leaves the corn farmer with an
income at least equal to year ago.
Present forecasts on the cotton crop
meantime indicate a yield l8 per cent
not only receive a high price per
pound, if present prices continue, but
will have almost one-flfth again as
much cotton to sell.
cate a shrinkage Of 5 per cent In pro-
duction as compared with 1928. but
the present rate of price increase
should rapidly offset this discrepancy.
The total income of the wheat farmer
should be between 25 per cent and 30
per cent greater than last year. Con
tinued drought and the possibilities
OF early frost may cut into these ex-
pected yields, but such losses in vol
ume should be compensated 1or py
increased prices.
The political significance of this
increase in prosperity has ALREADY
been commented upon: If the trend nd
holds until election then ,,nrest the thipd and
radicalism have a way OF evaporatlng
in the sunshine of increased pros
perity.
Farmers Increase Buying.
The agricultural sections them
selves are already benefiting mate
rally. Frozen credits carried by
country banks are being liauidated
and farm buying is increasing both
with local merchants and with mall
order houses. Great permanent oene-
fit will result If the farmer continues
to follow his present policy, which
serves to tend toward paying ms
debts, buying much needed equip
ment and improving his working
equipment instead of the reckless
spending and land speculation that
characterized his last season or pros
perity.
This welcome readjustment in farm
prices has been long overdue, ana IL
is hoped that the general level or as-
ricultural prices and industrial com
modify prices may come into even
closer relationship. 1t Is only on the
basis of equitable purchasing power
for all sections and classes that any
real or lasting prosperity can De
built.
General business as reflected on
the Babson chart has not yet fe!t the
advantage of this more even ADJUST
ment Activity is now IL per cent

tnat the condition of the corn crop is

WELLESLEY HILLS, Mass, August
S.-Recent rises in the prices Of farm
products have been discussed much
as to their economic and political
effect. Many have wondered just haw
much of this increase would actually
crops.
1t is difficult to get exact figures
because of differences in locality,
freight rates, and time of acutal mar
keting. A reliable estimate can, how
ever, be made by applying the recent
increases to the actual prices being
paid to farmers this last spring. Corn
for instance was netting the farmer
around "a cents bushsl in January
OF this year. Cotton brought the
grower about % cents per pound in
March, while wheat was selling from
9o to SO cents in the middle of April.
These dates represent approximate
lows since the beginning of 1924.
Purchasing Power up $3.50, 900, 900.
Corn has since seen a rise of As per
cent, cotton an increase of 81 per cent
ana wheat mas advanced apprOXi-
mately 80 per cent. The latest crop
estimates by the government fore
cast corn crop of 2.515,000. 900 bush
els. cotton crop OF 11,934,00O bales
and wheat production Of 100000, 900
bushels. Corn growers are now re-
ceiving over 81 instead of the "a cents
a bushel prevailing earlier in the year
and on this expected production their
purchasing power is thereby increas-
ed over $650,000,00O. Much corn is Of
course fed to hogs and not marketed
directly. Hog prices have also risen
about 40 per cent. so that the advan-
tage holds either way.
Cotton planters are getting around
80 cents instead of PIT cents per
pound. and thereby profit to the ex-
tent Of more than $135,000,o0O. The
wheat farmer, who has certainly had
his troubles these last few years, is
receiving $1.20 instead of 90 cents,
and on the basis of Government esti-
mate his political purchasing power
is increased. by $4,000. On these
three crops alone the recent strength
ening in prices has added 100000, ,001
to the purchasing power of the
farmers.

earrings so far in 1924 have improved

AS for the radio stocks, the market
gave no indication that the recent
upward movement. which eliminated

However, those who had availed
themselves of profits appeared anx-

prevailing prices and the buying to-
