Farm Income Hits Record OTTAWA (CP)--Cash income from farming operations reached a record $2,121,000,000 in the first nine months of the year, despite a drop in special federal payments to Prairie farmers. This estimate, reported 4 by the Dominion bureau of sta tistics, is four per cent higher | than the $2,039,700,000 for the | corresponding period last year | and 3.1 per cent above the pre-| vious peak of $2,056,800,000 in| 1959. The bureau emphasized pe the figures take no account of | production costs. A recent agriculture depart-| ment report showed costs have | continued to rise and estimated) that, because of heavy drought | losses to Western crops,' net} farm returns this year would | drop to the lowest point = 1949. Main reasons for the increase | in cash income were higher re- | turns from wheat, flaxseed, to-| bacco, cattle, calves, hogs, dairy and poultry products. | Potato sales were greatly re-| duced. There was some reduc-! tion in income from oats and | barley. | Repayment of wheat board! cash advances on farm- stored | grain exceeded payments ed some $35,000,000. The cash income figure in-' cludes $15,000 in deficiency pay- | ments for eggs under the Agri- | cultural Stabilization Act. That} compares with $3,285,000 in de- ficiency payments for eggs and sugar beets paid in the first nine| | months of 1960. Baby Gorilla's Keeper Charged! SWEETSBURG, Que.
