Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Revised Price Indexes: The 1950 Revision of the Bae Indexes of Prices Received by Farmers, and of Prices Paid by Farmers, Including Interest, Taxes, and Farm Wage Rates Commodities purchased. 24 pp. Washington, D. C. 1928. [processed]value of farm products has not been entirely satisfactory because farmers do not buy at whole sale, nor are index numbers of nonagricultural wholesale prices weighted according to the amount of farmers' purchases. The foreword explained that this index number of prices paid by farmers had been constructed to meet the need of a better measure of price changes in commodities bought by farmers for use in the family living and for production. The weights used for the index number had been determined largely from data collected by the Department of Agriculture and from Census reports. The prices paid by farmers had been collected by Crop Estimates. It stated that C. F. Sarle and mem bers of the Divisions of Farm Management and Costs, and Farm Population and Rural Life had contributed toward the development of this index number of prices paid by farmers.
