New Sales Manager
For Goodyear Co.
Announcement is made by the
14Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company of
'Canada, limited, of the appointment
of R. W. Richards as General Sales
Manager of the Company: Mr. Rich -
Ards las been for twenty-two years
in the sales department of Goodyear
of Canada, and has for the past three
sand a half years +been assistant sales
reanager. Previously 'to that, he was

ager of the truck tire department.
Agriciltural Income
The general level of of wholesale
prices of farm products averaged ap-
proximately fifteen per cent. higher
in 1934 than in 1933, says the 1935
44Algricultural Situation and Out-
look", vrhich about to be published
by the Dominion Department of Agri-
culture in co-operation with- the De-
partment of Trade and Coremerce. In
the latter part of 1934 the index of
farm :products tended to fluctuate nar-
lowly about 40 per cent. below aver-
age levels obtaining in 1926, and 40
per cent. over the extreme low point
of the depression reached in Febre-
ary, 1933. The variations in peices
of farm products are illustrated by
a comparison of averages covering
the first ten 'Months a 1933 and 1934
which reveal the following percent-
age increases:
No. 1 Manitoba Northern
No. 2 C. W. Oats
Timothy Hay, No 2 70%
Good and Choice Steers 21%
Bacon 'Hogs 61%
2%
Milk
Butter
Cheese
Fresh Eggs
On the other hand, prices of pota-
toes declined 17 per cent.
Farm income, particularly towards
the close of 1934 and the first part
of 1935 may be expected to reflect
in large part the imiprovemen.t regis-
tered by farm prices. The gradual
:adjustment of the debt situation
&should also affect incomes favorably.
The rise in prices of farm products
ihas been accompanied by a less rap-
id advance in value of things farmers
lbuy. A specially constructed price
index of famm purchases, including
living requirements as well as operat-
ing equipment, has moved upward
roughly 5 •per cent. above the 1933
average. Food's mounted 8 per cent.,
clothing 1 per cent., household sup-
plies and equipment 4 per cent., and
operating supplies and equipment 5
per cent. Since prices of manufac-
tured goods have not advanced as
rapidly as those for farm products,
farm incomes will purchase larger
supplies of needed goods than could
Ise obtained at the ibeginning of 1933.
.The five per cent. increase in prices
of farm purchases, however. will pre-'
went -the improvement in purchasing
power from being fully commensur-
ate with the rise of the fermiers' gross
Consumption a food products has
been well maintained during the re-
cent years of low prices. Fteture de-
emed will depend on the ratio of
pekes to purchasing power. Food
prices have advanced during the past
year more rapidly than the prices of
other goods. 11nel-eased food prices
!have been associated with increased
far mprices. Greater volume of em-
ployment and some Wage increases,
especially in the logging, lumbering,
and newsprint industries, have at
leaet increased total wages as much
as living costs have increased. Hence
the higher prices received by farmers
for an aggregate volume of goods
isinsilar to that a 1933 is a net na-
tional gain in domestic purchasing
