Farmers Look To Post War Market
A U S D A and University of Idaho survey finds about one quarter of farmers expect to buy tractors or farm machinery after the war, with many planning autos or trucks from wartime savings. They also seek home improvements and electrical gear while some nonowners intend to buy land. Cash assets reached 483 billion dollars in January 1944, rising from 54 billion in 1940. war bonds stood at 4 billion in January 1945. Farmers overall are financially better off, but many plan to save for potential hard times and education.
