Good Demand Seen For Farm Produce
Washington reports a strong fall demand for farm products in eastern states after a two week tour by A B Genung of the Agriculture Department. He notes high industrial wages and full labor, with some mills as exceptions, rising consumer purchasing power lifting prices and easing crop-season hardship. Labor shortages persist and farm-worker drift to cities is evident amid empty farms. There is some migration of western farmers to eastern lands due to lower prices.
