u. S. FARM VALUES.
Prediction that Great Increase OF
Past Years VIII BE Maintained.

Past 3 Years VIII BE Maintained.
A very large addition TO the wealth of
the nation has been made during the past
five years from the rise in farm values.
According TO a circular issued by the
Department of Agriculture, based on 45,-
600 answers to its inquirers, it is esti-
mated that throughout the whole country
farm land has increased more than IS per
cent in value since 1900 The last census
placed the total value of all farms in the
United States at $40 439. 100000, 80 that
the increase since then. if the estimate of
the Agricultural Department is correct, ie
nearly eight billions of dollars.
Among the reasons given for the rise in
farm values are rural free delivery, cleo
trio railways, good reads. the movement
of townspeople to the country. better and
cheaper transportation and MI Aet facili-
ties, and better methods of farming. Most
or all of these conditions are likely to per-
sist, SO that continued increase in farm
lands from these influences may be safely
counted upon. Good crops, better prices
for farm products and investment in farm
lands by persons who are not farmers are
other causes for increase in the value of
the lands, but these are more or less fic-
titious and temporary. The past decade
has been a most bountiful period for the
farmers of the United States.
