land ranges from S3 per acre in Arkan-
sas TO four times as much in Vermont.
while the value of Vermont's land is
doubtless two or three times as much
as in the case of Arkansas. The in
debtedness on acres is only equal to 50
for each acre that pays taxes, such land
being worth ON the average SO. In
ne State Excluding Massachusetts, and
Illinois) does the money borrowed on
acres exceed a mean of about 81 per
acre of the land that pays taxes, rang
ing mostly between s. and S3 per acre.
The average value of this land is seven
times as much as the debt on it. and
even in Kansas the farm land on which
taxes are paid is worth over three times
the money that is borrowed on it.
The rate of interest is high compared
to the security. 1t varies from 51a to
9la per cent. and on farms averages Z
per cent. AT the smaller rate the av
erage mortgage on farms calls for an
interest payment of S62 year. while
the higher rate calls for a payment of
S1OI, the average being about SIS. The
per capita interest payment thus av-
erages SO 80 per year, but goes as how
as 81 2S in Arkansas and as high as
