Large Increase in Values.

An average valuation for each state
was struck and also one for the coun-
try at large, and the gain in each state
has been handsome one. In 1900
the total value of all the farm lands
in the United States. including i'm
provements, was s1S.279, ,5OS,SS7 and
in 1905 it was S24,41O, ,96S, figures
which are eloquent of the effect the
general prosperity of the country has
upon the farm.
Another significant feature brought
ont is that the greatest increase, pro-
portionatcly. came to the central
states. The north central states gain
ed in round figures sS,500,000, 900
while the south central states gained
$1,000, 100000. The Atlantic and the
far western states also gained hand
somoly but only by millions and not
by billions.

How It Was Reckoned.

James Wilson, secretary of agri-
culture. has received $4,000 letters
from as many prominent and substan-
tial citizens giving, at his request,
their estimate of the increase in the
value in farm lands in their respective
neignborhoods since 1900.
BY this method the secretary has
reached into practically every COM
munity in the United States. and as
he asked every correspondent to base
his estimate in each instance on me-
dunn lands, leaving out the very poor
and the extremely valuable. the result
is believed to be as accurate as could
be achieved.
Almost all other estimates on farm
lands in the past have been too low
because they have been based upon
the tax assessment valuation, which
is notoriously an undervaluation in
every community, but Secretary Will
sons correspondents were instructed
to fix the value in each case at the
price at which the land could be sold
if thrown ON the market. Thus it is
believed that these figures are the
first ever collected to come approx
mately near the truth, and the result
is decidedly interest.

Striking Gains.

Among the individual states perhaps
the most striking gains in value were
made by Illinois. Indiana, Iowa, Mis-
souri,. Wisconsin, Ohio and Nebraska,
all OF which gained an average of not
less than SO per acre.
Illinois appears to he the banner
state of all in this respect. her aver
age sain being $21 per acre.
Iowa's gain was $15 per acre, Ohios
so, California's S6. Indiana's S13,
Missouri's $40 WashinGton's SO. Ne
braska's $11, Wisconsin's S11.' while
such good states as Michigan went
ahead only 81 per acre, Minnesota
only 81 and Kansas only IS. North
Dakota gained sS and South Dakota
50.
Among the southern states the most
striking gain was recorded by Louis
lana, the development of the rice
fields there helping that state greatly.
Louisiana's gain was an average of IS
per acre. The only other southern
state to approach this was Kentucky
with a gain of 81. This does not ap-
ply 20 the Atlantic coast southern
states, where the gains averaged
slightly larger, one state, Florida,
showing an average of 50 per acre,
which WAS the biggest gain OF any At
iantic coast state. north or south.
Among the far western states,
Washington makes the best showing.
