Farmers Facing Crisis As
Move Downward
Prices
The debt-laden American farmer is
between the devil and the deep blue
sea.
On one hand he is being warned
from the market centers of the coun
try, "don't ship." His markets are
demoralized.
On the other, the country bankers
End merchants are urging him to
"pay up." . .
The disastrous crisis confronting
the agriculturist and stock grower
has been as menacing to his peace of
mind and pocketbook as it is today.
No Relief in Sight
His markets, livestock and grair,
are recording tremendous price de
clines with no immediate prospects of
a favorable reaction.
Cattle values have dropped $1 per
hundred weight and are now at the
lowest mark since 1916.
H gs and sheep are on the tobog
gan. Wheat futures are at the lowest
level of the season.
Corn is the lowest since 1908.
Oats is the lowest since 1906 for
September.
The average trader at the market
centers does not know what to make
of such markets. A certain amount
of stagnation had been
anticipated
due to business depression and un-
employment with its resultant re- by Representative Hardy, (Deni.,

erally speaking are not in a position
to hold up their products. They have
been slowly recovering from last
year's attack of economic sickness
and need money to pay off the doctor.
Theirs is a dilemma. They can't afford
to run up a new bill.
Main Benefit to Very Rich
There are two classes of people
who get1 relief in the way of income
tax under the Fordney tax bill: The
person with an income between $2,500
and $5,000, the exemption being in
creased from $2,000 to $2,500.
The s allowance for deperdent child
ren is doubled and the person whose
income exceeds $66,000 a year. There
is bo relief for the person whose in

The trouble has been principally
that the making of the tax bill as well
as the tariff bill has been done with
only political effect in mind; the spir

which should have been considered
only as an economic measure. The
tax bill is designed to fool the people,
but it will not fool them; it will fool

who have sacrificed an honest finan

The very best it can accomplish is to
