Yet a large proportion of the mort

an interest rate Of 5h per cent or
more.
Cash Rents Small.
TT has long been true IN Iowa, as
well as in certain other prosperous
farming regions Of the United States,
that land values are so high that
cash rents received by landlords
yield a percentage Of return on the
investment considerably smaller than
the current return on first mortgage

forty eight Iowa counties for 1918
All per cent of the value of the land

the value in March, 1919.

ants can earn a much larger labor
income after paying rent than farm
ers can earn who borrow consider
able proportion Of their capital at D
per cent. or more, or who forego 9TH
err forms OF investment In order to
purchase the farms they operate.
Thus In the Tama district the aver
age labor income Of tenants. after
paying rent, was nearly three times
as large as the average labor In
come OF owners operating their
farms, calculated by deducting per
cent on the capitalization OF the
farm. Stated in another way, tenants
were able to earn net return on

Soils Earning Power.
1.-THE fact that current prices Of
land are not justified by the actual
earning power OF the soil Is en-
phasized by the relative financial
disadvantage Of owning, as compared
with selling out at present high val
uation, operating as q tenant snd
investing surplus capital In other
ways. OF course, II all farmers In the
region were to do this sharp re-
action would be precipitated. but un-
der present conditions the owner
with the average farm capitalization
OF nearly $4,000 could mako nearly
twice as much by operating as . ten

Sassed Behind Income.
"A supplementary inquiry into
farm incomes in two districts in Iowa
developed the fact that up to 1918
the rise in land values in that state
tended to lag behind the Increase in
farm incomes, which helped to create
situation favorable for the sudden
and rapid advance In land values that
came during the following year. In
the Tama district, where good crop
yields occurred. 200 farms made an
average farm income OF 1869 in
1918, as against s2,607 for 965 farms
in the same district In 1918, while in
the Warren district, In spite of an
unusually poor corn crop. 1873 farms
yielded an average farm income OF
$2.2es in 1915. as against S5.464 for
$50 farms in the same district in 1915.
After charging per cent on farm
capital, the average return remain
ing to pay for the operators labor
and risk Of investment averaged
nearly Ave times as much In Tama
district in 1918 as in 1913. while in
Warren district the average farm la
Dor income Of 1918 was about twice
that of 1915. Consequently, the re-
turn for operators labor was rela-
lively greater than before the war
period, even allowing for the change

However. II the change for capital

values Of the boom. the condition is
reversed. Farmers made smaller la
Dor incomes measured in dollars, and
with no, allowance for the decline in
the purchasing power of the dollar,
than in 1913 and 1915, respectively.
Moreover, the percentage Of farm
ers failing to make any return for
operators labor ana risk Is greatly
increased when the calculation Is
made by charging per cent on cap
italization following the boom.
Whereas, on the basis of land values
in 1913, in Tama district. one-fifth Of

be desirable for all farmers to do
this, since in certain cases, even at
current high prices, the many ad-
vantages Of farm ownership might
outweigh the high return on smah
Investment made by the tenant.
ut Is pointed out that at current
prices for land it Is not only finap-
cialy Improbable for the tenant to
become an owner, but that for the
great majority Of tenants it is prao-
ically impossible. The average net
worth Of tenants, as determined by
this study. is only about 10 per cent
of the value OF the farm capital,
Even II the tenant can borrow the
remainder OF the capital necessary
to become an owner, be could ex-
pect to earn, under the favorable
conditions with respect to crops and
prices prevailing in 1918. less than
8 per cent on the total capital bor-
rowed. Falling prices for farm prod
ucts or unfavorable crops would
make the prospect even less salts
factory.
Tho Tenancy Problem. y
"A logical inference from these
facts is that an improvement in
credit arrangements. frequently sug-
gested as remedy for the increase
Of tenancy. may not be regarded as
fundamental solution so long as
land values are 20 high that it is
both Improbable and impossible for
the majority Of tenants to acquire
ownership.
When conditions are such as are
revealed by the present study. the
solution Of the evils Of tenancy would
appear to require methods that will
limit the tendency toward the over
capitalization Of farm land values in
relation to farm incomes. In part,
this may be accomplished by edu-
eating farmers in alternative lines Of
sound investment. and In showing
them the folly Of sacrificing their
standards OF living in order to pur-
chase land ct excessive prices. In
part, it may be necessary to employ
more direct methods for the purpose
Of reducing that part of the demand
for land which Is the outgrowth Of
speculative motives or other motives
not connected with the desire to ac-
quire land for the purpose Of utiliz-
Ing It,"
