tenant FARMERS
SHOW BIG GAINS
Washington Tenant Farmers In
crease 40 Percent from 1880 to
1885 Census Study Reveals.

A 40 percent increase in the
number of farm tenants in Wash
ington from 1880 to 1885 is indi-
Gated by the 1885 census of ogri-
culture. During the same period
the number of farm owners increas
ed by only IS percent according to
report on the status of farm ten
ancy being prepared by Walter A.
Duffy, regional director, resettle-
ment administration, Portland, Ore
With 20 percent of all farms in
Washington now operated by ten
ants, the extent Of farm tenancy
has reached a new high. In spite
of the relatively recent opportuni-
ties for homesteaded land in this
state there has been an almost
steady increase in the number. of
tenant farms since the first county
was taken in 1880.
While final results of the CEN
sus have not been tabulated for all
states, figures for 80 counties in
dictate an increase in the number of
farm tenants in most sections of
the country. Approximately 43 per-
cent of all farms in the United
States are now operated by tenants
compared to rs percent when the
first census was taken in 1880.
Attempts to check the growth of
tenancy have been made chiefly be-
cause of the instability Of resi-
dence associated with a farm ten
ant system. Although conditions
vary greatly, studies show that the
tenant farmer moves On the aver
age of every four years. Because
of this change in residence the fun
ctioning of schools, churches and
other community enterprises as CO.
operative organizations is badly
handicapped.
'Impermanent interest in their
land, prevent many tenant farmers
from giving,proper attention to sol,
conservation, checking of erosion
and upkeep Of farm buildings. The
tenant hesitates to make improve
ments on the farm which would
only profit his successor or the
owner.
Farm tenancy in the past has
been considered stepping stone to
farm ownership, and as means
whereby farmers lacking capital
could obtain experience in farm
management. The steady increase
in the proportion of older tenants.
however, indicates that fewer men
are now able to move up the last
rung of the ladder to farm own
ership.
