caused much distress because pro-
ducers in many cases had little In
| come left after paying the cost OF
threshing and marketing. However,
as a business factor the fact must be
considered that the large crop meant
large revenues to threshernten and
railroads and to those who derive
commission from storing and han
| ding grain. Cash flowing into the dis
trict as result of grain and potato
sales from the 1928 crop was only
about 20 per cent less than in the
fall of 1927.
Another unfavorable development
In farming was that the 1928 crop Of
hogs was the smallest in several years.
While hog prices were not below the
average Of the postwar years and
there was sufficient corn for feed
ing. the total revenue from the sale
of hogs was not as large as the reve-
nue. produced from this source q year
ago. However. in some counties
where in 1927 corn had to be inn
ported for feeding purposes, the net
returns from hog raising operations
were more favorable in 1928 than in
1927.
Land Prices Remain Low
The third unfavorable aspect of the
farming situation was that land prices
continued to be low. There is, as yet.
only an imperfect adjustment Of
farming to conditions which have pre-
vailed since the war. Individual
farmers, through the use of machin-
cry or advanced farming technique or
some other resourcefulness, have been
making good incomes. They have
paid their short-term Indebtedness
and in many cases their mortgage
debt as we'll, and have maintained
their deposits In banks. Other
farmers, often in the same commun-
ity with prosperous farmers. have
been making q bare livelihood or have
been losing ground.
The general volume of business
showed improvement over 1927. Debts
to individual accounts at seventeen
cities established a new high record
for all time during 1928. The country
check clearings index also established
a new high record in 1928 for the
years during which these figures have
been available. In more detail, in
creases in 1923 over 1927 were shown
in miscellaneous freight carloadings,
flour production, copper output. life
insurance sales. country lumber sales
and wholesale trade In hardware and
shoes. Decreases occurred in city de-
partment store sales, securities sales
and wholesale trade In groceries. In
general, country business conditions
showed more improvement in 1928
than city business conditions. In the
last few months Of 1923. the volume
Of building in the larger cities in
creased over the volume q year ago.
