agricultural prices as a result Of
prolonged drought may provide
the necessary impulse for q turn
In the general commodity price
level, according to Gage p,
Wright, New York business and
investment counselor, writing in
the latest bulletin of the Business
Economic Digest.
He says:
"There is. hardly an advisory
service that does not recognize
the importance Of the drought
situation, and it is discussed
from almost as many different
angles as there are services.
Amy appraisal of the ultimate
outcome is further complicated
by the fact that the country
has been experiencing one Of
the most severe cases Of over.
supply of farm products i'm his
tory. It has been previously
noted that agricultural income
for the current fiscal year will
show b. important dec. ne from
that Of the last few years. A
conclusion to be Of practical
value to the business man or
investor must, therefore, neces-
sarily deal with the final and
aggregate total Of farm income.
"A few commentators 60 so
far as to say that in view Of
the abnormal supply Of agricul.
tural products the recent
drought may prove more Of o
blessing in disguise than q real
disaster, and they support their
contentious ON the fairly well
established principle that the
smaller the aggregate size Of q
cash crop the larger will be the
aggregate money value. The
trouble with this principle,
however, lies in the fact that
corn Is not what may be called
Q cash crop; . very large per.
centage Is always fed to live.
stock. Nearly IS per cent of
the corn crop never leaves the
vicinity In which It was pro.
duced.
Wheat Solution Seen
''It is also pointed out that
the Shrinkage in the corn crop
may solve the wheat surplus
problem. Feeding wheat 10 live
stock would mot be unique. In
normal years, q relatively small
amount Of wheat goes into
feed, but in years when the
spread between the price Of
corn and wheat is narrow wheat
becomes an important factor Is
feed. tn. situation at the
present time is believed to be
very favorable for employing
wheat as MvetOSck feed.
'"The situation may be sum-
med mp by stating that many
authorities agree that In all
probability the seriousness Of
