FARM PRICES HAVE
PASSED THEIR PEAK

Farm prices generally through
out the country have passed their
peak and are on the way down. Y.
A. Miehls, vice-president OF the
StrOut Realty Agency, reports on
the basis of information received
from the firms approximately $50
associates in thirty states.
The prices of Eastern farms,
Charles l.. Lane of Georgetown,
StrOut associate in this area re-
ported the company's vice-president
as saying, have at no time since
1912 exceeded percent of their
prewar valuations. The higher
prices at which farms have been
sold since 1912, he asserted. could
reasonably be accounted for by land
and building improvements.
Mr.. Lane stated that the drop in
prices of improved farms on ma
tiOn-wide scale since last summer
had been caused by a slackening
demand for the better type farms.
The much discussed rise in farm
prices has been caused largely by
the fact that people since VI day
have been buying better farms than
they could afford in the prewar
years" Mr.. Lane said quoting his
firms president. country
properties have been greatly i'm
proved in the past 90 years and both
farmers and city dwellers have had
the money TO buv them"
/ Reporting on Mid-Western farm
buying, Mr.. Miehls stated that al
though prices were still somewhat
higher than in the East, this had
been the case even in the the de-
preston years. He added, however.
that Western farm prices were
far from approaching 1927 boom
levels.
Iowa farms that were selling for
$400 to $500 an acre in 1921 are now
being bought for 5000 to $500 an
acre" Mr.. Miehls stated. The value
of the land, he pointed out, is the
determining factor in Mid-Western
farm properties, whereas much OF
the value of Eastern farms is repre-
sented hv their buildings.
