Farm Outlook
For 1851 Good

Stressing the changing inter
national situation as a major fac
tor in the farm economic picture
of the United States, Lyle Barnes,
Marie Walters and Guy Miller,
professors of Ohio State univer-
sity gave a complete survey of
farm life in 1851 during the farm
outlook meeting last Friday eve
ming.
Quoting figures from the hand
book prepared by the Agricultur-
al Extension service economics
and specialists, local farm leaders
attending the meeting learned
many things that should help
them plan their farm programs
for the coming year.
The twelve points stressed dur
ing the meeting as being most
indicative of the changing farm
outlook, were:
|. Demand for farm products is
expected to increase in 1851.
2. We have a foreign economy
which requires a longtime pro-
gram of increasing defense ex-
penditureS and increasing armed
forces. The economy must be pre-
pared for an about struggle.
3. The economy is operating at
the highest rate in history except
at the peak of the World War II
effort and further expansion is
expected.
4. Production expansion will be
pushed in 1851. Business invest
ment is increasing rapidly.
5. Inflationary pressures are
strong. The general price level in
1851 is expected to be about 10
percent higher than in 1850 and to
average about 5 percent higher
than the present level.
6. Cost of living is expected to
