FARM LEASES

The farm-lease contract is among
the most troublesome features of the
farming business, and one of consid-
cradle Importance in view of the fact
that the 1910 census-the results of
the 1920 census are not yet available
shows that 81 per cent of all farms
are operated by tenants and another
9.3 per cent by owners who lease ad-
ditional land. 1t is estimated that
part of all Of the land and improve
ments Of about 100000 farms are
rented, and that, while the average
length of tenancy is three years the
majority of lease contracts are for
one year, making about 100000
lease contracts to be made or renewed
each year.
For the guidance of tenants and
landlords who wish to avoid trouble
through misunderstanding, the Uni
ted States Department of Agriculture
has issued bulletin on the farm-lease
contract-Farmers' Bulletin 1164--
which may be obtained free on appli-
cation.
A written lease is much more salts
factory than a verbal one, this bulle-
tin points out. If one of the parties
should die, written contract pro-
tects his estate from false claims by
the other party Moreover it serves
as memorandum to both parties SO
that the actual terms of the contract
may not be forgotten.
The principal points TO be consid-
cred in the farm lease, which are dealt
with more or less at length in the
bulletin, are:
Date, names of parties, time of
duration, manner of termination,
description of property, reservations,
assurances and guarantees by both
parties, agreements with respect to
credit, respective contributions by
both parties of operating capital and
to expenses, adjustments regarding
property owned in joint account, pay
ment of rent; specifications with re-
spect to the care, use, and improve
ment of the real estate; specifications
with respect to farming method and
procedure, provisions for supervision
procedure at termination of lease
enforcement at termination of lease
enforcement of contract, and final dc.
tails.

ing horse, amount to less than fifty
cents per day, or about fifteen dol
lars per month.
President and Mrs. Wilson are
notedly warm friends of the driving
horse, and do not mind the eyebrows
raised over the fact that they drove
IN an old fashioned victoria, which, in
spite of its age, was in perfect condi-
ton. In contrast to this was the up
to-the- minute smartness of the turn
out with housekeeping coact horses
used by the bridal party last season
at the Vanderbilt Littleton wedding.
This appreciation of Nhe driving
horse is coming along in step with an
increasing popularity for horseback
riding in leading cities of this country.
In New York, the bride paths of
Central Park, Van Cortland Park and
the world famous Riverside Drive arc
daily filled with riders who are ap-
pealing for more room and connecting
links between paths. Chicago is be-
coming more and more an eques-
train center; Minneapolis has seen q
great riding and driving horse
rival, while in San Francisco and Los
Angeles, horseback riding and driving
are popular throughout the entire
year.
