Statistics compiled by the bureau; of agricultural economics, made pub- | lic Thursday, showed the farmer's Purchasing power on May 15 was 61; per cent of that of the pre-war Period, 1909 to 1914, but that for the ‘week, October 11 to October 18, the; last surveyed, his purchasing power | was 59 per cent of pre-war. | Farm prices moved up fast, bulged | receded, but still were above the May, 15 level from October 11 to 18. The} slump in the farmer's buying power, was largely accounted for by the in-| crease in the average prices pald for! what he needed for his family and to carry on his business. Using the figure 100 to represent pre-war level, the prices paid to farm- ers on May 15 were represented by the figure 62, or 38 per cent under pre-war. At the same time, the aver- @ge prices paid for the things he commonly needed was shown by the bureau's index as 101, or 1 per cent} above pre-war. For the period October 11 to 18, the | Price paid farmers was 68, or 6 points over May 15, and 32 per cent under|5 pre-war. But the prices farmers pay, meantime, had risen to 116.5 or 165 Per cent over pre-war.
