ON INCREASE IN AMERICA Statistics Show That Tenantry in Agricultural States Re- mains About Same Chicago, Oct. 28—The increase in| farm tenantry which has become an/| issue; in Karsas does not appear uni- | form throughout the central west, a | cording to reports received here trom a number of agricultural authorities. While the majority-of the several states heard from report an advance, Wisconsin notes no change, owing to | the opening of new farms, and Okla- homa declares a decrease. f | Hlinois, Minnesota, Nebraska and | ee show increases. ‘The situation in the various states na is thy RENEE S named is thus Slow Decrease Fann tenantry in Oklahoma. has shown a decrease of 7 per cent during the 10. years gince 1910, according to figures from each county compiled by H. H. Shutz, federal statistician for the state. In 1910, farm. owners made up 45 per cent of the tillers of the soil,~and renters 55 per cent, while mow owners. represent 52 per cent afdrenters 48 per cent) Nearly every section of the state showed a decrease | in the number of renters, acc rding | to Mr. Shutz, who based his foe | on returns from all farms int the} state, numbering approximately 193,- 000. Mr. Shutz noted a growing ten- dency on the part of renters to buy a small tract, from 10 to 20 acres, and rentgadfoining land. He Said | high crop prices have enabléd- many renters to. swing into the owner col- umn. No Change Noted i “The percentage of rented farms; has rémained about the same and, in in the southern half of Wisconsin, so; the economic: condition there is not very different, from the’ condition in the corn belt states,” Joseph A Beck- er, agricultural sta’ ian at Madi- son, Wis., writes. “ “However, the large number of new farms being op- | ened up in the northern part of the state, practically all of which are op- erated by owners, has more, than kept up the percentage of owned farms. Summing up, there has been so! tendency toward an increase in farm tenancy, but the opening up of new farms operated by owners im the northern part of the state has more; thar offset this in Wisconsin.” | Farm tenantry increased. four per cent in Illinois in the 10 year period from 1909 to 1919, according to fig- ures compiled by the state department | of agriculture at Sprinéfield. ~ Ten- | antry-in 1919 was estimated at 45,5, per cent. wt Steadily Increasing Farm tenantry in Ohio will show | only a “slight increase” ovey 1916. | in the opinion-ef A. Q. Falconer, head | of the rural economics-department ut Ohio State university. It will not be more tKan 5 per cent, he estimates. Farm tenantry in Minnesota 8 steadily increasing because of the ad~ yanced prices of farm land and a hesitancy on the part of many retir- ing farmers to relinquish title to their lands, according to M. J. Holmberg, state commission of agriculture. A material increase in tenantry is re- ported in the southern counties, where the cost of land is relatively high. In the northern sectjon the increase j ig not so marked, Mit Holmberg said, | because the land there commands but a comparatively low price and the in- flux of immigrants is large. In Nebraska an increase of about four per cent. in tenant owned farms from 1910 to,1919 ig shown in figures supplied by’ Leo Stuhr, secretary. of the state department of agriculture. ig A “ | .
