Farm Income Reached
AlI-Time High in '43
Despite Difficulties
BIZ The Associ.ted pres..

By the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Jan. Down on the
farm last year they pocketed the
largest income in history despite
equipment shortages, manpower
problems, price controls and such
interferences as spring floods.
All the problems confronting agri-
culture were surmounted with rec
ord production and the reward was
jingling in farm pockets.
Cash farm income for the full
year l943. including Government
payments, is estimated by the De-
partment Of Agriculture at close to
$40, 000, 900 900. This compares with
SIG, 000, 900 900 In 1912 and $l1,750,-
100000 in 1941.
The outlook for 1914 is for q
further expansion, even If crops
merely equal those Of 1913.
Factors Behind Income Rise.
Two factors combined to produce
the record income-higher prices
and greater production. Prices for
the year, despite numerous CELL
ings, averaged about 20 per cent
higher than last year. Farm pro-
duction was the heaviest in history.
All sections of the country shared
war prosperity. Whether the farmer
produced wheat or eggs or fresh
vegetables, the result was the same
more money.
Especially heavy gains were shown
in some Of the South Atlantic
States, largely because more broilers
were marketed. The extremely
heavy production Of livestock was
a major factor in the Middle West.
Percentage increases in income
during the first eight months of
1943, as compared with the pre-
ceding year, for some major farm
products were:
Food grains, n per cent; feed
grain and hay, % per cent; cotton
and cottonseed, Il per cent; oil
bearing crops, 124 per cent; fruits
and nuts. IS per cent; fresh veg
etables, A per cent; meat animals,
~ per cent; dairy products, "a per

zinc, the material that goes into cartridge

Lead orders for January release Of for
eign metal have been received by the trade
from the Metals Reserve Co. At the moment
1t appears the tonnages requested and al
lotted will not require any dipping into the
Government-own stock pile.
Steel production loss due to the strike
was estimated at 225,000 tons, but it was
not expected that munitions production
would b greatly affected.
