FARM PRICES SHOW
SUBSTANTIAL JUMP
IN. PAST 15 YEARS
•
.Fifteen yars ago Ontario farriers
were getting eight cents a pound for
wool, and slightly more than eight
cents for honey. .Since then the
prices .have risen to more than 19
cents for :honey, and more than 29
cents for wool,
The doubling and tripling of prices
are characteristic of figures recently
prepared by the Ontario Department
of Agricultre, to compare current
prices paid to the farmer with those
which were being paid a decade and
a half ago. The current price is
the average obtained across the
province on Nov, 15, 1946; the com-
parison is made with the average of
the prices as they stood at Nov. 15
during the four years 1031-1934.
Current prices„ with those of 1931-
1934 in brackets: wheat per bushel,
$1.22 (65); oats per bius?,el, 58 (31);
barley per bushel 72 (42); flaxseed
per bushel, $3.03 ($1.17x; honey per
mound, 19.2 (8.6); beef cattle, pet•
