 Business depressions fall upon the farmer with particular sever ity. He has enough food to eat usually though farmers are being helped in various states by our re- lief stations.
 Farmers Hard Hit
 The farmer does not cut down his production as does the factory owner; hence the prices of what he sells fall more than the prices of what he buys. His income falls more than his costs.
 The farm, however, breaks the shock for the worker more than tne city, because there is more food

 Balanced Output and Demand
 Another source of difficulty no. unrelated to the foregoing is the fact that production tends to in crease faster than the capacity to purchase.
 Equaling the flowsw of consurp- tton and production undoubtedly calls for a closer control over production and a more careful study of the changes in consun,p- ticn. Our economic system stirnu- lates production more readily then consumption.

Apparently we don't know enough to forecast what the more distant future may yield. Appar- eEtly a major difficulty is the un- equal flows of credit and of pro- duction and it appears that in most cycles an important factor is the fluctuation in our money and credit system. The barometer is the price level.
