Farming Coming Back.
Those who have based their arguments about international and domestic economics on export of farm products might do well to check up on some of the figures.
Statistics show that the exports of leading American foodstuffs in 12 months ending June 30 had a wholesale value of similar exports in 1913, when the export market was normal.
Of course the scale of prices is generally higher than it was then, and some allowance must be made for that but on the whole it can be seen that the export trade in agricultural products has picked up remarkably since the post-war depression.
