HOOSIER FARM INCOME THIS YEAR LEADING 1945 LAFAYETTE, Ind., Nov. 6. Total Indiana farm cash receiots. for the first seven months of this year showed substantial gains over the same period of a year ago, amounting to $373,228,000 as compared to $358,763,000 in 1945 xnis mtormation was Eiven in a report which has just been re ceived from the U. S. Department of Agriculture, Bureau of Agri cultural Economics by Purdue University. The increased income is at tributed to larger receipts from crops which offset the drop in receipts from livestock and live stock products from January to July. Receipts from sale of crops rose from $72,765,000 in 1945 to $99,046,000 for the 1946 rjeriod Livestock and livestock products, however, declined $11,816,000 in the comparative periods, from $285,998,000 to $274,182,000 this year. This drop is the result of the decline in the marketing of meat animals in the early months of the current year, according to the report. The gains from increased mar ketings and higher prices for hogs are reflected in the receipts for the month" of July of this vear which were $53,530,000 as compared with $36,519,000 in July of a year ago. Receipts for. croDs during the same month also rose, to $31,180,000 for 1946 in contrast to $26,184,000 in July, 1945. Re-
