ONLY 10 PER CENT
AGRICULTURAL
LAND is CROPPED

Recently compiled figures taken
from the census of 1900 show that
for the crop season of 1899, since
which time the acreage under culti-
vation has not materially increased.
the area of land in crop in the
United States was but 1872 per cent
OF the total These figures, when
shown in detail, tend to shake our
faith in the necessity of opening up
lands far from market, or lands
which have natural Disadvantages of
soil and climate. The figures for
some of the leading states in the
Union, given in per cent of total
acreage, follow: Iowa, So; Illinois,
5S; Ohio, 46; Indiana, so; Wisson-
sin, %, Figures for Minnesota and
the Dakotas are not here given, for
the reason that their titled acreage
has largely increased within the de-
cade, while in olde rareas land is
going back and farms are being de-
serted, making the scale balance a
little in favor of increasing acreage.
Making all due allowance for
land taken up by roads, towns tes,
railway lines, rivers, lakes and ereas
too rough or infertile for tillage, it
appears evident that state like
Iowa, for example, is stin FIR from
its maximum of production. Now
for moment compare Wisconsin
with 25 per cent of its land in pro
ductive crops Minnesota with %
per cent, and the Dakotas with Is
per cent, Remember that these ng-
ures are IL years old, and allow an
possible increase in that interval,

In anticipation of sensational dis

when the case was called before SUI.
preme court Judge Sheeks. Gohl
and Klingenberg were brought into
court handcuffed to the sheriff and
a deputy. Gohl looked calmly at
the assemblage and greeted his
friends with smile. Klingenberg,
who, according to his confession,
killed HadbeEg, under pressure by
Gohl, looked the physical wreck
that he is.
The crimes are so well known
that attorneys are of the opinion
that it will take two weeks to secure
jury, and it is possible that an
additional venire will have to be
drawn.
On the night of December 23,
Gohl, according to the allegations,
accompanied by John Klingenberg
and John Hoffman, took the for
mer's launch and left for Indiana
Greek to visit Hadberg at his s'cabin.
When well down the bay, Gohl, ac-
cording to Klingenberg's confession,
without warning pulled an automa-
tic revolver and shot Hoffman in the
body. Hoffman begged for his life,
but after telling him that he was \
baby Gohl fired three more shots.
After the deed was committed it is
asserted, he forced Klingenberg to
assist him in tying an anchor to the
body, which they dropped overheard
in the Chehalis river They then
left for Hadberg's cabin.
On the following morning, Gohl
asked Hadberg to row them back to
the launch. Gohl sat in the stern
and Klingenberg the bow, Hadberg
rowing with his back toward King
enberg. Several times, according to
confession, Gohl sig
nailed to Klingenberg to shoot Had
berg, which he finally did. The men
then tied an anchor to Hadberg'S
body and threw it into the bay.

ARE FARMERS
SPECULATING
IN FARM LANDS

A peculiar situation, in view ol
the long period of profitable prices
and increased prosperity of farmers
is the recent rapid increase in farm
mortgages in the west, particularly
in Kansas and Iowa
The demand for farm loans has
increased to such an extent that life
insurance companies are raising the
rates on such mortgages. The
Northwestern Mutual. of Milwaukee,
put a per cent rate in effect April
Is, against that of per cent pre-
viously existing. The only logical
explanation of this condition is land
speculation. The tendency is to fig
ure If money can be made on a hun
dred and sixty acres, why not double
the profit by doubling the acreage,
and more land is purchased on
credit.
If we could be certain of a con-
tinuance of present price levels for
another five or 10 years and an ad-
vance in prices of farm lands as
rapid as that of the past 10 years,
the using of credit at this time to
acquire more land is legitimate busi-
ness and will result in a big profit.
But is there any solid foundation for
belief in a continuation of bounti-
full crops, high prices and steadily
advancing prices for farm lands?
AS to crops, no man can foresee.
When it comes to prices, it is fair
to assume that the next few years
will see some readjustment toward
a lower level. The wheat supply is
beginning to catch up with and ex-
ceed the demand.
The high prices of live stock will
naturally cause more farmers to
turn their attention to meat produc-
tion, so while it will take longer, the
time will come when the supply of
meat will begin to overtake demand.
Such being the case. it is not rea-
sonable to expect that the land
prices will continue to advance.
1t seems a poor time to go into
debt taking all factors into consider
alton 1t is too much like buying at
the top of the market, to be good
business.
From the bankers standpoint,
most of them say there is nothing
alarming in the situation, because
they are careful to have a large mar
gin of safety when they make loan
so if it is defaulted they are sure to
get a good farm far below its real
value.
But it is easy to see the borrow
er's position should he have to face
a series of bad crop years, or rad
cal readjustment of the present
price level. His positiol
would be exactly that of a stock
ipeculator who had strained his
credit to carry a large lot of stocks
1t high prices, when the market be-
3 ms to go down. He would be wiped |
)ut. This is not written from a pes
i'mistic standpoint, but merely as a
suggestion that now is the time to |
slow up and look at the situation as
t is and not as we hope and think
I will be 10 years from now
