Mr.. Anderson also expresses
mystif1cation on the subject of
storage.
"a wheat farmer, expecting
to get the support price Of
roughly $2.46 bushel for his
product, takes his grain to. a
storage elevator company. Time
after time, he is told there is no
room for more wheat. In des-
peration, he finally is forced to
offer it at almost any price to
get it off his hands. When he
drops his price enough-say
$1.60 per bushel-the grain ele-
vators somehow increase in ca
pacity suddenly and his wheat,
rejected at $2.46 a bushel, is
gladly accepted at $1.60.
"Yet," Mr.. Anderson says, "the
elevator operators will get the
full price on sale, perhaps more" I"
Compared to the National per
capita average net income of
81 $50 for January. 1858, the
farmers $1,876 doesn't look too
bad, agriculture experts concede.
But, they point out that farm IN
come never is steady situation.
Weather, international trade and
general economic trends play
havoc with a farmers calcula-
tionS for next year. In many
cases, expansion of crop produc-
ton means borrowing ahead in
the hope that next years output
will be a bonanza.
It's a gamble all the way. If
conditions are good, the little
farmer repays his loan and poe
kets a decent profit. If a drought.
such as that experienced in this
area now. strikes him, niS fl
nancial balance is upset for years
ahead. And with one large cebt
unpaid, its doubly hard to get
new money.
On the other hand, a certain

amount Of machinery buying has
been forced on the farmer by
the lack of labor. With farm
wages at an all-time high for
hired men, the labor market
still is far below requirements.
That, Mr.. Anderson and other
farm agents think, is why equip
ment sales doomed so heavily in
the late 1940s.
But without hired hands at
his command, the farmer, who
usually is cautious in buying
has purchased machinery in un-
precedented quantities, some of
it costing upward of $4,000 Der
unit. This year, however, faced
with new crop restrictions and
an unsettled and unpredictable
economic situation at home snd
abroad, he's buying nothing that
isn't absolutely necessary, Mr..
Anderson says.
That's the reason, farmers
say, that new farm machinery
are gathering dust and rust in
the Washington area.

because the average planter
doesn't have the money or is too
aware of his declining income
to risk more investment from
what savings he may have.

many of whose owners operate
from year-to-year on a shoe

"The white collar worker or
the day laborer," Mr.. Anderson
says, works outside his home
His income is more or less steady
and the effect of business slumps
takes a much longer time to be-
come felt at his dinner table.
"The farmer, however, is op-
Grating a business which is
centered in his home and family.
Every slight financial upset is

capital behind him, any extra

Maryland Income High.
Last year, the National gross
average farm income was $6,926.
Maryland climbed above that
figure with $7,667 while Virginia
fell far below with an average of
$3,924. This, Agriculture Depart

planned in part because Mary

By Hugh Humphrey

The Washington agricultural
area-like most of the Nation
is experiencing a novel farm
surplus situation.
Throughout Maryland and
Virginia, farm equipment dealers
while denying any appreciable
decline in SaleS-are somewhat
at a loss to explain the massive
inventories of heavy machinery
that stand on storage lots near
their saleSrooms. Many of the
larger pieces such as combines,
corn pickers and heavier tractors
actually are gathering rust while
waiting for a buyer.
Dealers explain their large
stockpile by calling this period
levelling off interlude; the
point where supply has equaled
demand. They point out that
many farmers had not ventured
into mechanization before World
War II and that, for many who
decided to convert from the
horse to the tractor between
1941 and 1945, equipment wasn't
available in the war time econ
omy. BY the end of 1916. how
ever, the boom in machinery
sales surged toward its peak and
farm equipment manufacturers
were constantly behind in meet
ing orders.
Temporary Buying Lull.
Now, dealers say, mechanical
ton is almost complete and
farmers are content to ease off
on buying except when they
must replace machinery, thereby
creating a temporary lull in the
market.
Another factor, however, is in
troduced by the farmers and
farm agents of nearby Maryland
and Virginia. They say farm
equipment isn't selling simply

profit of $1,S76 from his gross
average income Of $6,926. While
a sizeable portion of his family
food expense was included in the
gross income figure, since a
number of farmers grow much
of their produce for the table,
the livestock markets daily quo
tationS on beef and pork prices
show that the cost of city living
pinches the farmer, too, Mr..
Anderson says.
Prime steers are bringing $50
per 100 pounds now," he points
out. IF beef farmer has been
lucky. he might show a little
profit on that price, but it's
doubtful.
''On the other hand, the retail
price of choice beef is running
about 81 per pound" Mr.. Ander-
son says. Somewhere between
the farmer and retailer, 10 cents
is being pocketed in one form
or another. If. when beef prices
decline. the retail price would
drop accordingly. more people
would eat more beef, thereby
creating a greater demand and
causing the farmer to produce
more at a better chance of profit
"And don't forget, few farmers
eat their own beef. Most of
them buy it at retail, and it's
not morale-building idea to
see farmer pay 70 cents more
than his selling price for a cut
of beef.
when cattle prices were run
ming around $3.50 cents per
pound, retail beef prices still
were about the same as now.
If the markup percentage was
profitable then, why couldn't
the same percentage of profit
hold good now?" he asks.
