Farm Income Drops.
Mills A. Olsen, chief of the. Bureau
Of Agricultural Economics, put into the
record data which showed the estl-
mated gross income on owner-operateo
farms had dropped from an average
of ST 900 in 1929 to 1888 In 1882. In
these figures were included the value
of the food produced and used on tne
farms.
After deducting operating costs and
interest charges paid non-farmers, the
farmers had, on the basis OF partial
figures. well below $500 available for
capital, labor and management in 1882
as compared to ss47 in 1929. The
estimated decline in the gross income
of agriculture as a whole In the tn ~
years was from around $4,000, 100000
to $500, ,000 900.
Between 1918 and 1921 taxes
doubled" Olsen said. BY 1880 they
were about two and one-haf times
what they we're before the war, and It
Is estimated that it requires at the
present time around five times as many
units of farm commodities as before the
war to pay taxes"
He said that during the five-year
period from 1909 to 1914 about 712 per
cent of agrieulture's income was re-
quired to pay taxes, interest On capital
and wages for management. BY 1892,
he testified, taxes and mortgage interest
took about 25 per cent.
The sharp rise in the amount OF farm
mortgage indebtedness also was de-
tailed In 1910 the figure was given as
S3,320,470,000 and in 1880 preliminary
estimates placed it at $9,241 ,390 ,000, or
almost twice the value of the 1882 gross
farm income.
