FARM BIRTHS ARE

SURVEY SHOWS

Which Child-B 2aring Is Not AZ
lowed to Interrupt

! Urban families tend to have
fewer children than rural families,
according to facts contained in
I studies surveyed through research
/ on The Position of Married Wom-
en- i'm the Economic World" by
the National Federation of Bust
ness and Professional Women's
clubs.
The survey, conducted by DR.. Ruth
Shallcross of the research department
was undertaken when &c states had

working. The study, supervised by a
| committee of which Mrs. Mary R.
Beard was chairman. was undertaken
to discover the truth or fallacy in
current statements concerning the
economic. sociological and psycholog-
ical effects of married women's gainful
employment: To this end a question
nalre. was sent to representative
sample of the 1000 federation men,
berS.
discriminatory and economic forces
which keep women single decrease the
birth rate" the report states During
the depression men were loath to add
new responsibilities to old ones by
marrying, unless the wife could help
in financing the new home. When
HO4iIIIA NlOI4OIII4I NdIut Is nigh, as NI
farms or in rural communities, their
marriage rate is also high. This means
an increase in the birth rate among
rural families.
While marriage rates formerly had
considerable effect on birth rates, the
practice of birth control has altered
this relationship. The modern develop
ment Is the increase in childless mar
rlages. Many factors affect this, such
as: wide dissemination Of birth control
information; lack of confidence in the
future causing birth rates to decline
during depreSsions; women's unwill-
ingness to break the continuity of
their work: the desire for a better
standard of living; the expense of chill
sets, except on farms tthis is less
true today than formerly; and edu-
cational differences.
Frank Lorimer and Frederic o.
born. in Dynamics of Population,
show that the fewer the employed
American women, the higher the ra-
ito of children"
The report shows that good home
life is created by both husband and
which are satisfactory to them both
The well-established family makes its
necessary adjustment if the husband
and wife mutually decide that the
familys best interests are furthered BY
having the wife work outside the home:
this choice must consider the health
of the wife and her ability to earn
outside the home as compared with
her ability to increase the buying value
of the family income in the home.
Another point brought out by the
survey is that compared with urban
families, there are few families in rural
and small communities engaged in in
stallment buying.

Farm Exports Drop,
But Home Demand
Turns Upward
Industrial Activity
Broudens Market for
Agriculture
By the Associated Press.

Despite a sharp reduction in agri-
cultural exports as result Of the
war. American farmers can look for
ward to an improvement in demand
for their products in domestic mar
ketS, the Agriculture Department
said today.
Improvement in industrial activity,
rejecting national defense spending,
was said by the department to be
boosting consumer buying power for
farm products.
The general upward trend Of COM
modify prices is expected to con-
tinue, the department said, but no
marked rise such as occurred during
the World War is yet in sight.
The situation with respect to
major farm commodities was de-
sCribed by the department as follows.
Wheat-domestiC prices close to
the seasons high. The effect of the
Government loan program in re-
duclng the supply Of wheat available
for market continues to dominate
the market"
Cotton-priCes generally average
above the Government loan rate as
domestic consumption continues to
exceed that Of a year ago and large
quantities Of 1910 cotton flows into
storage under Government loans.
Exports only about 20 per cent Of
those Of year ago
Feed grains-The total supply for
the 1940-41 feeding season is now
estimated at $4,000. 900 tons, provid-
ing a supply per grain-consuming
animal unit slightly larger than
year ago.
Hogs-Because of unusually heavy
marketings so far this fall and the
decrease in the 1910 spring pig crop,
it nov appears likely that slaughter
supplies Of hogs will decrease sharp
" in the late winter and early
spring.
Beef cattle-Slaughter supplies Of
granted cattle may be a little
smaller than a year earlier during
the first part Of the year. but they
may be larger next spring and fall.
In October prices OF upper grades
OF beet advanced 10 the highest
level in three years
Lam0s-Slaughter supplies in the
coming ted-lamb marketing season
4 ,December-ApriD may show a mod
