Land Prices
(Continued From Page D

lanQ OF Oll0feHI kllQ Oh invest
ment.
a small percentage of farms is
heavily mortgaged and period of
less favorable times would lead to an
increased number of forced sales,
but they are not likely to become
very numerous.
In July, 1851, farm mortgage debt
totaIed 5000, 600, 900 and nonreal
estate debt was. s., 4OO, 100000, the
department of agriculture reported.
Farm debt has been increasing for
several years in spite of high in
comes and, no doubt is higher than
a year ago. Bankers report an in
creasing number of farmers short of
operating capital and obliged to bor-
row, using mortgage loans in some
cases, to pay running expenses.
Farm Debt Light
The value of farm real estate last
year was about $50, OO0, 900 900. Other
farm assets were valued at about
$40, 1000, 0OO, 900. Hence, in the aggre-
gate, farm debt is relatively light.
Demand for farm land is likely to
be less active than in the last two
years, but still relatively good. Saw
ings of farmers who wish to enlarge
their holdings and of tenants who
wish to become owners win remain
relatively high.
In the writer's view, there is no
warrant for rushing to buy farm land
lest prices 60 out Of sight. But there
may be little advantage in waiting,
since returns to farm owners, al
though probably lower than in re-
cent years, are likely to be relatively
good in the period while you might
be waiting. If the farm you par
ticularIy want is available and is
priced in line, delay may lose you
the chance to buy.
Buy on Sound Basis
Purchases should not he made I'M
less they can be soundIy financed by
paying down one-half or more of the
purchase price with adequate OPP
Grating capital left. Buying with
small down payments to 10 years
ago paid well, but with land prices
much higher, such purchases would
be extremely risky.
Tenants should avoid buying a
small farm unless they can rent
enough additional land nearby to
make an efficient unit.
AS rule, it's better to buy good
than poor land. Farm management
studies show that good farms usually
do not sell as high relative to their
earning power as poor farms.
If you have to borrow money, gel
a loan on a long-term, amortized
basis, with an interest rate as low as
possible and with prepayment priv
ileges.
For most farmers, land is long
term investment Population growth
is a long-run factor of great impor-
lance in the farm land outlook. Pei
capita supplies of farm products II
the next few years may be ample
enough to permit some easing il
land prices, but it may be differen
story over the next is to Is years.
Only small increase can be made
in the supply of good farm land
Population is likely to press increas
ingly on land resources and, even
tually, probably will make farm lanC
more valuable compared with othe
things.
