Hardwood plywood plays an

Plywood's strength in all direc-

ity?'" said Edward H. Schabinger,
New Castle County agricultural
agent this week
''Parity is means of computing
fair returns for farm products" !"
said Mr.. Schabinger. Farm prices
are at parity when they have the
same purchasing power in respect
to the cost of articles farmers buy,
that they did during the set base
periods"

period for most commodities was

1949 attempted to modernize the
base period by using a 10 year

level of computing parity caused
sharp changes in some commodi-

results in the higher price, is used
