|. 5. FARM CENSUS OUT
Director Durand Gives Valuable In
formation on the Farm and
the Farmer.
ONE THIRD ARE MoRTGAGED.

Washington, y. o., September e.
Census Director Durand gave out to-
day an important advance statement
from the Bureau of the Census con-
tanning additional figures and details
of the agricultural statistics of con-
tinental United States collected at
the Thirteenth Decennial Census,
April Is, 1910. 1t is based on pre-
liminary comparative summary sub
mitted by DR.. LIE Grand Powers, chief
statistician for the Division of Agri-
culture in the Bureau of the Census
and it supplements brief prelimi-
nary notice issued in July last.
The figures here given are subject
to revision, inasmuch as there is a
small number of farms, the returns
for which are incomplete, which will
be included in the final tables. Such
additions, however, will not material
ly modify either the amounts OF the
rates here stated. Further informa-
ton with regard to the acreages and
Yields of the various crops and the
number and value Of domestic ami
mails in the United States will be
published later, when the tabulation
of the material has been completed.
Farm Buildings, Implements and Ma
chinery.
1t is not alone farm land which has
increased in value. Farm buildings
valued in 1909 as 1855, $40, 600
have increased to s6,294,737, 0e0 in
1910, a growth of II per cent. I'm
plements and machinery show cor
responding but slightly less pro-
nounced growth in value. In 1900
they represented s749776,o00 and in
1910 $1,262,O22,00o, an increase in
value of 6S3 per cent.
Expenditures for Labor and Ferti-
Gzers..
Hired labor on the farms of the
United States absorbed in 1900 an
expenditure Of 1857, 3sz,saoo and in
1910 s645,612.o0O, an increase of
SO.6 per cent. Expenditures for fer
tilizers are much less important, be-
ing in 1910 $114,277,000. Com
pared however, with an expenditure
of s53,4S2,0O0 in 1900, this repre-
sents an increase-of 1879 per cent.
Farm Mortgages.
Of the total number of farms, g.
933,7O5, operated in 1910 by owners,
there were 2,622,34l, or 66.7 per
cent, reported as ''owned free OF
debt, while 1,311,3G4, or 1873 per
cent were reported as = mortgage
There were 45,975 farms for which
no mortgage report was secured, and
these are included in the farms re-
ported as free from debt. The Cen
sus Bureau has no information re-
specting the Indebtedness in farms
leased to tenants or operated by man
ayers. 49,.
In 1900 information was secured
concerning the Scwned farm homes. d
At that time 2,545,239, or 70 per
cent, were reported as s'free from
debit while 1,o93,164, Or 80 per
cent, were reported as mortgaged
There were l2G.059 farms in 1900
for which no mortgage report was
secured, and these are included with
the farm homes reported as 'sfree
from debt" There has thus been a
considerably greater increase in the
number of mortgaged farms than in
the number of farms free from mort
gage. The increase in the proper
ton of mortgaged farms from 1900
to 1910, however, was less than that
from 1890 to 1900

Especial Correspondence.) ]

Washington, D. C., Jan. 23
 Delegate Cameron has prepared amendments to a bill which he has had pending for sometime, providing ways and means for the sinking of wells in desert lands in the territory of Arizona. The amended bill will include the territory of New Mexico and in it's new form will permit the use of desert land for wells, as con- tained in the original, and there will be added necessary provisions per hitting the construction of dams and reservoirs necessary for the storage of surface water, which can be ob- tained in certain sections. The pre- visions of the bill with its amend ments, will permit any person, a citizen of the United States, who has filed his declaration to become such, "upon payment of p cents an acre, to file a declaration under oath, with the register and receiver of the land district in which any desert land be situated," and he may thereupon sink a well or construct d dam for the storage of water, but the amount of llnd used for this purpose must not exceed forty acres in each case. The payment of an additional sum of S1.00 per acre secures a patent, upon proof of completion of the work. No one person shall be permitted to enter or receive patents for more than eight tracts ,and it is left within the province of the Government to determine whether such land is more valuable for general farming than for the purposes provided in MT. Cameron's bill. If such land shall have greater value for agricultural purposes than for water storage pur- poses then it shall not be available to persons who wish to sink wells or construct reservoirs or dams. Such watering places or reservoirs must be substantial in construction and are not to be adjudged as complying with the provisions of the bill unless
