Book Description
Excerpt from The Farm Market The world war has made us conscious, as never before, of our dependence upon agriculture. Farming is and always has been the basic American industry and the industry of predominant importance. War-time conditions have greatly, accelerated the agricultural progress which has been in evidence for many years. The farming population has now reached a new and a higher level of earning and spending. In a word, the farm market offers a vast and increasing opportunity to American manufacturers. A study has been made by The Curtis Publishing Company, through its Division of Commercial Research, in order to visualize the market opportunity in the farm field. The report, in two volumes of about eleven hundred pages, illustrated by more than fifty maps and charts, is on file in the branch offices of the Advertising Department of The Curtis Publishing Company; and the volume containing the general conclusions is available for the use of manufacturers and advertising agencies. Since the completion of the investigation more than two hundred conferences have been held with manufacturers and advertising agencies. It is n response to numerous requests that this brief summary has been prepared. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Farm Real Estate Market: May, 1960 After advances of 6 to 8 percent a year in 1956, 1957 and 1958, farm real estate values increased 3 percent in the year ended March 1, 1960. Although annual increases were less than in 1958-59 in all regions, the slow down was most pronounced in the Corn Belt, Lake States, and Northern Plains. Values in these States this March averaged l or 2 percent higher than a year earlier. Changes in market values in the 4 months ended March 1, 1960, were largely nominal, as values changed 1 percent or less in 30 States. However, values in only 4 States (maine, Minnesota, Missouri, and New Jersey) were as much as 2 percent below last November. Most of the 14 States that showed increases of 2 or 3 percent were in the western half of the country. The national index advanced to 173 (1947 2 index points, or 1 percent, above last November, a new record high. Reporters' opinions as to the probable future trend in market values were more strongly weighted toward little change or a decline this March than they were last October. The most pronounced shift in opinions occurred in the Corn Belt, where about a third of the reporters thought market values would decline in the next 6 months. Elsewhere, opinions as to increases and decreases were more evenly divided, but most areas showed a smaller proportion than last fall of reporters who thought values would increase.

Book Description
Excerpt from Protection and Prices and Farmers Home Market Free traders and advocates of a tariff-for-revenue-only seem to agree in thinking that the only object of a protective tariff is to enable manufacturers to increase their prices, and that if they fail in doing this it is of no use whatever to them. They cannot see how the importation of foreign goods, free of duty, or at a low rate of duty, can injure our home manufacturers, unless such importation forces down the price of home products. They say to the manufacturer, "If you can sell your goods as cheaply as the foreign manufacturer, why do you want protection?" To many unthinking people that seems an unanswerable argument. But, in fact, it is a very poor argument, and shows complete ignorance of the best known laws of production. They entirely overlook the fact that when manufacturing is carried on upon a large scale goods can be turned out more cheaply than when it is done on a small scale.
