CASH OR SHARE RENT FARMS
Question Best Answered by Local
Conditions and Circumstances
Systems Summarized.
(Ry b II. HIRRARDl

(By b. III. HIBBARD.)
shall rent a farm on shares or
shall pay cash."
This Is the question which many
young men. who are Just striking out
for themselves. are asking.
The answer is determined quite
largely by circumstances and by local
conditions. but there are a few gen.
eral truths which apply in nearly all
cases. The advantages and disadvan-
tages Of the two systems are thus
summarized:
Cash rent gives to the tenant great
er independence. for during the extent
Of his lease he IL more nearly his own
master-the business of running the
farm largely concerning no one but
himself. Rising grain prices during
the recent years have also made the
system more profitable to the tenant
than share renting. Another advan-
tage in paying cash for the use of Q
piece Of land IL the inducement Of
cred for the tenant to put forth every
effort to get as much out of the soil
a. possible and to strive for maxi.
mum production. Any increase IL. out.
put means greater profit for the ten.
ant and need not be shared with the
owner. as is the case under the share
system of renting.
Share renting, on the other hand,
gives the tenant the benefit of having
. partner who. in many cases, has
had considerable business experience.
This quite frequently is a valuable az.
set, especially for the young farmer.
The owner who rents on shares pays
more attention to his farm and will.
as rule. have better and furnish
better buildings than the man who
rents his farm for cash. From the
standpoint Of the renter, perhaps the
greatest advantage in share renting
Is that for him 1t lessons the element
Of risk. In bad years he pays a small
rent or none at all. In good years he
may pay a relatively high rent.
About IA per cent of Wisconsin
farms are rented as compared with A
per cent in Illinois. 80 per cent in
Iowa and 81 per cent in Minnesota
This lower percentage of tenancy in
Wisconsin is due partly to the cheap
land in the North and to the fact
that the dairy business does not lend
itself well to most systems of rent.
ing. There Is q growing tendency
however. for tenant and owner to buv
dairy herd together. This makes
the running Of the farm somewhat
Of a partnership affair and seems to
work quite satisfactorily.
