Farmers Must Not Be Led By Wheat Price Claims
A historical analysis argues that Democratic critiques of farmers in 1900 relied on wheat as a misleading measure. It compares price changes of ten farm production items versus ten farm consumption items from 1896 to 1900, showing a 45.8 percent rise in production costs but only 19 percent in consumption. It questions why wheat was used as the sole measure and notes broader price increases in corn, pork, and other staples, urging reliance on broader official data rather than a single commodity.
