During the months of June. July

Not all the increase is credited to

FARM STATISTICS.
Farm Land Values Still On Down
Grade.

Farm Land Values Still On Down
Grade.
Reserves of grain ON Maryland
farms on March / this year were
somewhat less than on same date
during the past two years, says
John s. Dennee, agricultural Stats
tician for the United States Bureau
Of Markets and Crop Estimates.
According to the statist, the sup
ply of last years corn crop remain
ing in the hands of Maryland farm
ers on March was estimated at
12,326,000 bushels, against 49,
764,OO0 year ago. About SO per
cent of the 1921 corn crop was of
merchantable quality, The average
of farm price on March 1, as re-
ported by farmers, is So cents per
bushel, against "a cents a year ago,
and 152 cents two years ago.
OF the 100000 bushels of wheat
produced last year only 1,193,OOU
bushels, about Is per cent, remain
ed in farmers hands on March l.,
1922, against 3,050,000 bushels one
year ago. Average price reported
received by Maryland farmers for
wheat on March this year was 12S
cents per bushel, as compared with
Ito cents last year, and 240 cents
year before last.
Less oats remained on the FARMS
486,OO0 bushels against $4,000 a
year ago. Oats production during
1921 is estimated to have been
100000 bushels.
About $4,000 of the 10000
bushels of barley grown in 1921 re-
manned on the farms on March /,
this year.
Farm land values in Maryland
continue their downward trend and
are rapidly approaching the levels OF
1917. For the most part the depre-
citation is attributed to the low
prices farm produce is now COM
manding, rather than to any real de.
probation of the intrinsic worth OF
| the land itself. The average value
| of pillow lands now and two years
ago are as follows: poor pillow lands
$500 and $4,000 per acre; good
pillow lands $1,000 and $500; all
plow lands $4,000 and $4,000. The
average price per acre of farm lands
with improvements is $1,000 against
$1,000 two years ago; and farm
lands without improvements $47.0(
against $4,000.
Few farms in Maryland rent on 9
cash basis, the custom being to rem
on shares. Where cash rates pre-
vail over the State farmers returns
indicate that the average cash rem
paid per acre for farms is $500
and the average value per acre o.
such farms is $4,000. The average
cash rent paid per acre for pillow
land is $500, and the average value
per acre Of such land is $4,000
Pasture or grazing lands command
an average cash rent per acre Of
I$2.5O, and the average value pei
