Five Prosperous Years Ahead
For Agriculture, Claim Experts
BY AL JEDLICKA

In noting the effects of increased
mechanization on manual farm la
Dor, johnson cited statistics show
ing that whereas farmers comprised
IS per cent of the population in 1910
and % per cent in 1910, they made
up only 10 per cent of the total in
1945. During the war, it was esti-
mated that some 4,OOO,OOO persons,
including over 100000 conscripts,
left rural areas.
Envisaging the steady drift of the
population from agricultural Sec
tons, johnson pointed to the posi-
bility of having a smaller but more
prosperous working farm force,
with production concentrated on
more mechanical tracts.
Future Looks Bright.
For the immediate future, howev-
er, johnson predicted relative farm
prosperity, though he asserted that
an additional rs per cent increase
in purchasing power over prospec-
tive levels would be necessary to
m aintain wartime commodity
prices. He did not foresee a rise
in farm prices within the prospec-
tive boom period.
With comparatively high employ
ment assuring continued high pur-
chasing power and Strengthening of
farm prices, johnson looked to the
maintenance of present agricultural
land values, estimated at so billion
dollars. So long as farm income
remains satisfactory and interest
rates approximate current levels,
realty investment will promise IA
vorable returns, he said.
Interesting features of the conven-
ton discussion was the participation
of two so-called "barnyard econo-
mists," w. D. Davis, vice president
of the Suffer Farm company, Kan
sas City, Mo-, and Karl F. Adams,
owner of the Bloomington Farm
Management service, Bloomington,
Ill.
Since no pent-up demand exists
for food products and more eff
Gent postwar working force will be
able to boost mechanical production
above consumer demands, Davis
said farmers can look to a price
depression. Less pessimistic, Ad-
ans asserted that farmers can be
expected to slash output and hold
up prices when big markets begin
to taper off.

Ne1U Mineral May
Be Used for Gems

A new mineral, brazilianite, which
has possibilities as a gem stone, has
just been announced jointly by two
mineralogists, representing the
Smith sonian Institution and the
American Museum of Natural His
tory. 1t was discovered in Brazil by
Edward P. Henderson and Frederick
H. POUCH. The first specimen was
brought in by native who thought
it might be gold ore.
Brazilianite is hydrous sodium
aluminium phosphate, differing from
all other chemical compounds thus
far identified in nature. 1t is a yell
lowish-green, glasslike mineral suf-
ficiently good in color and physical
perfection to make it suitable for
cutting into gem zones, although
the discoveries believe that it is
not likely to become popular gem
because of its scarcity and lack of
sufficient hardness to enable it
to withstand much wear.
Brazilianite is the first new min
eral with gem-stone possibilities to
be discovered since 1919, when the
mineral benitoite was found in Cal
ifornia.

Y" IId a postwar boom IN pros
w pect, agriculture faces at least
five-year period of relative pros
perity, leading economist told del
egates to the annual convention of
the American Society of Farm Man.
ayers and Rural Appraisers at the
La Sale hotel in Chicago, Ill.
At the same time, another expert
economist warned that though
heavy employment would result in
continued high farm income, steady
advancement of chronological and
productive processes in agriculture
would pose an increasingly critical
problem of readjustment.
In a paper read to the convention
by Prof. Walter w. Wilcox of the
University of Wisconsin,, Walter
B. Carver, agricultural economist
for the Federal Reserve Bank of
Chicago, pointed to the prospects
of large government spending, pent-
up demand and continued high ac-
tivity of heavy industry as indica-
tive of developing boom.
More Purchasing Power.
While government spending prom
ises to be considerably above the
prewar level because of large de-
tense and vet OUTLAWS and pressure
for substantial public works and
housing subsidies, taxes will be re-
duced, leaving substantial purchas-
ing power in consumer hands, Gar
yer said.
Adding to the inflationary tenden-
cy is the record proposition of
bonds, deposits and currency in
public hands, Carver said. With
this huge reserve of funds, consum-
ers may well look to satisfying their
pent-up demand for goods, while big
enterprises may invest heavily in
rehabilitating their equipment.
In relation to the probability of
business remodeling it's plant, Gar
yer pointed to the findings that the
prosperity of heavy industries pro-
ducing equipment, ETC., resulted in
high employment with its attend
ant effect on the whole economic
system.
Following the pattern of economic
history, however, Carver looked to
a drop in the boom after five years,
with a speculative accumulation of
inventories and an over-expanded
industrial plant. Because of the
pressure on government for increas-
ing regulation of the nations econ
omy to protect the public interest,
Carver predicted administrative eff
forts might be made to check a
sharp depression.
Higher Prices Possible.
With industry the real base for ma
tional prosperity, Carver said, high
business activity would be of re-
sultant benefit to agriculture. Differ
ing with other economists at the
convention, Carver even predicted
possible rise in farm prices within
two years after the boom got under
way.
Looking into the postwar prob
lens of agriculture, D. Gale John
son, research associate at the Uni
versity of Chicago, stated that al
though immediate production prom
ises to be about 10 per cent above
prewar levels and purchasing pow
er about so per cent above the
l935-'39 mark, studies showed tech
biological and other progress result
ed in an annual increase of from lls
to 2 per cent per year in farm out
put. At the same time, Johnson
said, studies also showed that where
purchasing power increased, addi-
tional expenditures on food repre-
sented a small part of the total.
