Circular of Information No. 161
November, 1736
RELATIVE AVERAGE PRICES RECEIVED BY FARMERS
IN OREGON, BY COUNTIES AND DISTRICTS, 1926-1935*
These data are not market quotations for any certain grade or kind of product
at any particular point in the count; or district for which they are given--they are
intended to indicate the general average relative farm price level during the 1926-1935
period, in the various counties and districts in Oregon. Together with production and
marketing statistics, farm price data are valuable in calculating the trend in farm
income and the relative importance of variocs enterprises in the agricultural industry,
and they are valuable in regard to the marketing of farm products.

*These price data were prepared in fulfillment of Works Progresadministration Project No. 569 (o.P. 65-94-776), under the direction of L. R. Dreithaupt,
Extension Agricultural Economist, Oregon State College, serving as State Supervisor of
Rural Research. The county and district data are straight averages of monthly and yearly
average prices, as prepared and estimated by J. W. Deremiah, project supervisor, assisted
by Elvera Horrell, statistical secretary in the office of the extension agricultural
economist.
The estimates are based largely upon figures taken Lrom records loaned
for the purpose by the United States Department of Agriculture, Division of Crop and
Livestock Estimates, Bureau of Agricultural Economics. These records resulted from the
reports made monthly by voluntary farm price reporters, which are used in preparing the
weighted estimated average farm prices which are published each month on a statewide basis
but not by counties or districts.
