FARM CASH INCOME
IS SHARPLY HIGHER
March Figures Are II Per
Cent Above Low Point
in February.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

CHICAGO, May 6.-The cash income
OF farmers during the month Of March,
1888, was IT per cent above the low
point reached in February, according
to estimates made by the State Street
Research and Management Corporation
in conjunction with the Corn Industries
Research Foundation, who base their
enough selected farm staples to make
up II per cent sample OF the total
cash income from all farm produce.
Stimulated by moderate price i'm
provement in several major farm COM
modities," says the estimate, March
cash income rose about II per cent
above the February low and brought
the accumulated total for the first three
months Of the year to about SITS 900, =
900 for all United States farm cash in
come This Is a decline of about %
per cent from the same period of last
year and decline Of IS per cent from
the first quarter Of 1929"
It Is pointed out that cash income
Of farmers Is not to be confused with
gross income, which includes the mar
ket value Of produce used by farmers
and their families and on which the
Department of Agriculture released an
estimate for 1892 last week. The De-
partment placed gross income for the
past year at $5,143, ,00o, 900, whereas
actual cash income during the same
period amounted to approximately
$4,000, ,000, 900. Cash income Is q closer
measure Of the actual volume Of farm
purchasing power and the ability OF
the farmer to pay taxes, debts and
other charges than Is gross income.
"The improvement that appears In
the March figures resulting from mod
erately increased prices for cotton
corn, wheat, cattle and hogs, without
doubt has favorably Influenced cash in
come totals for April" say the research
organizations "It seems clear, how
ever, that although the immediate re-
suit Of inflationary sentiment Is bene-
fetal to prices, any normal improve
ment In farm cash income as a whole
will await the execution Of farm legis-
lation and q reasonable test Of the
operation Of the Government program '

ADVANCE IN COTTON
Is WELL MAINTAINED
Buyers Become More Confident as
Market Forges Ahead at Re-

By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, May 6.-The increased
activity and strength Of the cotton mar
ket here during the past week has
been attributed to further broadening
of general interest based chiefly upon
the progress Of the farm relief bill and
its inf1ationary features. Advances in
securities and other commodity mar
kets have contributed to the confidence
of buyers, while the demand for cotton
probably found some encouragement IN
talk Of unfavorable prospects for the
new crop start, reports Of continued
firmness In the cotton goods market
and a disposition to somewhat increase
estimated of end-season consumption In
this country as q result Of increasing
Southern mill activity.
Frmness IN Liverpool and further
depreciation in the dollar as measured
by sterling exchange rates also have
been contributing factors on the ad-
vance, which carried the price Of July
contracts here up to approximately the
eh-cent level or about $11 per bale
above the low price touched on the re-
action Of late last March.
Reports continue to indicate inten-
tons to increase acreage in the South.
Two private end-April crop reports
were issued, one of them placing the
expected increase at ~ qnd the other
at per cent, and there 0hve been re-
1terated increased activity IN fertilizers

LIVE STOCK MARKET
HAS BETTER TONE
Steers, Hogs and Lambs
Show Price Gains Dur
ing Week.
BY FRANK r. WELLER,
Associated Press Farm Editor.

A much livelier cattle market than
continued liberal receipts and the slug
gtsh condition Of the dressed trade
would suggest, has led some observers
to believe that consumption is assuming
a broader scope
Compared with previous years supply
figures are not excessive: but consumer
demand was broader then. The as
sumption that it is increasing was based
on the fact that as many or more cat
tie than has shown up In recent weeks
turned readily this week and at prices
varying Is to 40 cents higher around
the circuit.
Hog prices gained to 20 cents and
sheep 10 to so cents, all according to
the individual market, despite the fact
fresh pork prices declined at Eastern
centerS and the aggressiveness displayed
by shippers last week almost entirely
disappeared in sheep and lambs Some
attributed much Of the upturn in live
stock values to the inflationary wave
which has stimulated numerous other
commodities.
The Chicago top on steers stopped at
81, 10 cents under a week ago, but the
trade showed willingness to pay $7.25
Tor prime offerings-a commentary on
the short run Of choice light cattle The
steer trade Is a $3.50 to $6 affair, the
advance showing in the fact that the
practical stopping point has been ad-
vanced from $6.25 to $3.50.
Because values continued to creep up
ward IN the face Of sluggishness In
the dressed market, numerous attempts
were made to depress prices, but sales
men were bulish at all times and de-
mand always proved as broad or q lit
tie broader than the supply.

CARL0AD|NGS GAIN
!. FOR WEEK |S42,0D6
Best Report in Months Made
by American Railway
Association.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
The leavening influence Of beer and
Frightening business brought the most
optimistic carloading report from the
American Railway Association yester-
day that has come in many months.
The report. which Is taken generally
as an indication of business trends,
showed 42,7O6 more cars loaded during
the week of April % than had been
during the preceding week. The hgure
was still 1881 under the same week OF
last year, however.
The largest increase was shown IN
miscellaneous merchandise loaolngs
which includes beer shipments. This
increase was 21,052 cars over the pre-
ceding week and 6,573 above the same
week of the previous year.
The report also showed increases IN
grain, ore and coke shipments over tne
Corresponding weeks in 1882 and 1881
The decrease in all loadings from 1882
was the smallest this year.
Oficials of the car service division
said their reports from throughout the
country indicated general pickup In
the steel industry which would account
for the increase over last year in iron
ore and coke loadings. There have been
slight increases reported prior to this
week.
The grand total Of ASA cars was
an increase of 6,781 over the week
ended April %; 8,749 over the corre-
spending week last year and 4,589 over
1881, the first time that full weeks
loadings has shown an increase over
1881 in the last 16 months.
This was attributed by Railway As
ISOLATION officials to the increase in
grain prices and to the demand by
brewers.
Railroad officials said the real index
of buying throughout the Nation was
less than carlot merchandise loadings
which showed an increase Of 1878 over
the preceding week, but still was o.
951 under last year. They pointed out
however, that increases in such CLASH
fications as coke, ore, grain and mis-
cellaneous freight usually preceded q
pickup in less than carlot merchan-
disc
While declaring this report the most
optimistic in over year, railroad Off
cials said figures for the week ended
May must be awaited to determine
whether the increases signifled a real
upward swing in business.

DOLLAR WHEAT TALK
Is HEARD IN PITS
Large-Scale Public Buying Has
Lifted All Grains and
Provisions.
By the Associated Press.


CHICAGO, May 6.-"Dollar-a- -bushel
wheat" is now the slogan of speculative
buyers who take imitation as their guide
Some large operators add that should
anything seriously adverse happen to
the 1888 Spring crop of the United
States and Canada there is no telling
how high wheat will 60. They specify,
however an important proviso-namely,
that public buying continue on the big
scale that has been the rule Of late.
Compared to week ago, wheat this
morning was 814a8% cents bushel
higher, with rye 9%a11 cents up, corn
at 734a8N gain, oats lifted 2Ha3H and
provisions showing a rise Of 80 to 81
cents.
Optimists relative to imitation as
wheat price stimulus point out that
foreign markets are beginning to re-
spond more actively to quotation upturns
in the United States, and that Winni-
peg, Rotterdam, Buenos Aires and Liver
pool have all been developing strength
In some quarters this is taken as con-
firming talk that tendency toward
world imitation exists. Particular sig
nificance Is attached by many to the
fact that Winnipeg wheat prices have
advanced faster than Chicago, being 8
to 10 cents higher than q week ago.

Markets Stimulated.
The imitation bill stimulated COM
modify and security markets. 1t nat
urally caused much shifting Of money
from banks to raw materials and fab
ricated products, in the wholesale and
jobbing centers, but 1t Is too early to
say how much of the present retail
purchases are based on the prospect Of
higher retail prices.
General business betterment resulted
from delayed retail buying. In fact,
public purchasing has steadily picked
up since Easter.
The first important upward revision
of tire prices in nearly eight years nat
urally brought out advance purchasing
