Reâ€" ports on farm wages indicate a slight increase over a year ago. Taxes and interest payments show a slight decline, while other farm operating costs were about the same as prevailed during 1924. Some products have been much more,irofitable than othâ€" ers. ; Live stock and live stock products have brought very satisâ€" factory returns. Potatoes, while a short. crop, have proved the salvation of many debt ridden farmers. Corn and oats, both large crops, have been disappointments from the cash standpoint. A bumper cotton crop has caused the price decline which will offâ€" lset most if not all the increased yield. Sugar crop returns were ow. c sb ' For 1924, the Department of Agriculture estimated the gross value of agricultural products at $12,404,000,000. For 1925, it appears now, that this figure will be slightly increased; a slight decrease in total agricultural production was more than compenâ€" sated for by an increase in prices. In 1924 the farm cash income was estimated at $9,777,000,000. . It seems probable that the cash income for 1925 will exceed $10,000,000,000 in cold cash. . Subject for next Sunday‘s lesson: The average level of farm prices and gross income from farmâ€" ing operations were the highest in 1925 since 1920. This does not tell the full story, for the ratio between farm products and other commodities, or the purchasing power of farm income, atâ€" aqined a level which has not been heretofore reached in the last ve years. Pm t o t * f Digesting the year‘s reports received from our 4,000 farmer field observers and from information compiled by statisticians, reports on agriculture show that as a whole it has steadily forged ahead during the past year. This is the fourth consecutive year n which progress has been made in regaining losses sustained as 1 result of the economic depression which overtook the agriculâ€" tural industry in 1920 and 1921. f Here at home we are benefitting from these conditions. We féel the effect of the general improvement in business condjtix and the universal confidence in the future, All in all, the N Year opens most auspiciously, bringing with it promise of pedce ?an tephromy for the world in general and especially for the ni k3 Indications also are that conditions in Europe and elsewhere throughout the world are improving, with prospects of a long period of peace and increasing prosperity for all nations accordâ€" ing to their industry and business activities. There is a wideâ€" sKread feeling of optimism that augurs well for the future, and those who watch keenly the trend of the times predict a period f unsurpassed progress in all lines during the next few years. ~â€" With a year of improving business conditions and general prosperity just closing, the United States looks forward with conâ€" fidence to increasing prospeérity in the year just beginning. Everywhere there is expression of a spirit of optimism and conâ€" fidence in the future of business during the.next year or two at least, and there is a growing belief that the United States is enâ€" tering one of the greatest periods of development and business growth in the nation‘s history.
