tional Harvester, gives me a new
slant on farmers reasoning, logic,
psychology. They are swayed pre-
dominatingly by the price their
products command.
For example, when wheat brings
81 or better a bushel, they feel
much better than they do when it
brings only IS to rs cents a
bushel even when they produce
at least a bushel and a half for
each bushel they produce under
the much higher prices. In other
words, their calculations are not
based so much on their total in
come as on the unit price.

Wheat has lately brought in
Chicago around IS cents as
against almost 81 IL months ago.
Therefore, the average wheat
farmer is less inclined to spend
money. The difference between
