FARM PRICE OF HOGS AND FAIR EXCHANGE VALUE Mavenee® sents what hogs have to bring in order to give then. the pre-war pur- chasing power with respect to prices of commodities farmers buy. Largely because of a lack of bal- ance between ‘upply and demand, hog prices since the World War have averaged the fair exchange value only in one year (1926) when {t happened that the size of the hog crop was considerably decreased. In 1932 the farm price of hogs averaged only $3.47 per hundredweight, but as the prices of commodities farm. ers buy averaged a little higher than their pre-war level, the fair exchange value in 1932 was propor- tionately higher, or $7.75 per hun dredweight, The disparity, there fore, was $4.28 per hundredweight. Adjustment of hog production under the Agricultural Adjustment Act in 1934 will help wipe out this disparity and again restore hog prices to the fair exchange value. ~* Heiresses Out For a Stroll Two heiresses, whose fathers are internationally famous in the business world, are shown here as they step out for a stroll.on the Harvey Firestone estate at.
