SCARCITY or PENINSULA FARMS.

Considerable complaint is heard from the
various counties on this Peninsula OF tie
6 'arcity offarms for rent. Not many years
.. .st owners Of farms found tia diff1cul,
mat ter to obtain good tenants and the land
renter could have his choice Of farms. But
since the influx Off population from the
north, the cutting up and dividing of real
estate, much Of our land has passed ibto
nther hands. Ina word there are more land
,x ners now than formerly, and hence the
scarcity OF lands for rent. Not only has th
incoming population purchased farms bu
many of our land renters, seeing what wat
coming, have purchased homes also, leaving
these Of smaller means ard young men just
engaging iLto the business, to look aftet
their own interests as land renters. Hence
arises these complaints of the scarcity ol
lands for rent. But rental rates have in
creased also and this adds extra burdens Il
the poor land reDter. Every year our popu
.stion is increasing, and II this state ol
things should continue for years to come,
every tiller of The coil must either become ?
land owner or sc ttler upon the cheap lands
ofthe West. True, we have thousand 3i
.cl es of worn out and abandoned lands thai
might be reclaimed, but it will require both
capital and labor to make 1t bloom and
blossom" with abundant crops. This has
been done in The paft and may be done
.gsin. With the soil and climate we possess
,ur waste lands may become productive and
Weld . profitable income. OUT land renters
should purchase small farms and the mselyda
become the owners of the soil they cultivate
It. will elevate the dignity OF true manhood
to know that they in common with the rest
of their fellow ci izyns have sub.tantialin-
terest in the community In which they live.
