What Are The Facts?
A bulletin issued December Ist, 1928, by the
- Research Department of the National ‘Asso
| ciation of Farm Equipment Manufacturers
+ gives the facts contained in this important
\message. These fact¥ip poge, two things":
First,” that alghough filrmfers haye unfortu
_nately suffered great lossés during the de
ilgtion period, the.ferm equipment indus
ur: has. heen bidly. orippled too. _ Second,
that although-misnnderstanding and lack of
infdpmation have led some to the belief that
farm eqnipment prices are high, the faet of
the matter is that they are actually low in
somparison with other articles the farmer
.'3:,ll¢folloWing paragraphs from the farm equipment association’s
bulletin contains information in which we believe our customers
will be interested. - L et IR LR R T
How about the price? .
The price of any commodity is high or low by com
parison, The farmer believes the things he buys arc
high because some of the things he sells are low. It
is but natural for him to ‘complain about the price
of. implements which he needs in the operation of
his farm, rather than about the many other vcorq-g
modities ‘and Juxuries he purchases with the mone¥ :
carned by his farm’ ma&ines.
. He'does not know -that {f .the average-size binder
that harvests his crop w&& priced on a pound for
pound hasis with the averagh kitchen range, it would
cost ‘liim $350-—and . that weould not take into ac
count the complexity of the,binder and the service
that goes with it. If it we?g%flced.,_m;e the world’s
cheapest car, the binder \would cost the farmer
$430. A 5-foot mower at lm}q Jmower prices would
cost $174. The hay loader, ‘nrlqefl'pofind for pgund
with the churn, would cost $203.: ... A -
The Farm Equipment 'lndustry higqgmr_ea :
Severely from losses. during the past three years.
While we regret the losses sustained _by‘!x:e fa¥m
er, e is not the .only one who hagigiffered. The
farm equipment’ manufacturer has also.lost money.
His volume of. sales in 1922 was 53 peér’gent less
than his sales in 1920, whije the farmers’ sales of all
farm products for the-crep year 1922-23 ‘wgre only
.18 per cent loss than in the crop year 1929-21.;
" The fact is that the implement industry. has’ suf
fered qgverejy from losses .during the past” .few
years. Twenty of the leading companies during the
year-1921 and 1922 sustained a net loss of over 5(0
400,000, and some’ concerns have fared even worse
in proportion, § o .
Onty a small part: of the farmer’s income
goes. to pay for his ‘equipment.
Farmsars do not pay much to the implement man.
Only 3 1-2 cents of every dollar the American farm
er received from the sale of farm products in the
crop year 1922-23 went to the farm equipment in
dustry, not for implements alone, but for tractor and
power farming machines, silos, barn = and dairy
cquipment, vehicles, stum pullers, - windmills,
pumps, incubators, cider m%@,finfikeepers’ supplies,
etc. Even these few cents the industry did not keep.
Approximately 80 per cent of all money received by
the manufadturer from#the farmer for = farm ma
chines was paid to ]Jabor—not to workers in the im
plement factories alone, but in the steel mills, the
mines, the forests, and in the railroads. These
workers and their families return mich of this mon
ey to the farmer for his products.
