That farm lands are making a steady and certain comeback from the stand- point of demand and desirable security for mortgage investments is indicated by various reports of those in close touch with the farm lands situation, the National Association of Real Estate Boards announces. The semi-annual index of farm real estate in Ohio, prepared by the Ohio, State University and the Ohio Agri- cultural Experiment Station in co- operation with ti.e farm lands divis on of the Ohio Association of Real Estate Boards, shows that there has bee: a pronounced stiffening in the price of | | | | “distress” farm land real estate during the past six months in Ohio. Reports of farm sales {rom 50 Ohio counties show that the average price of farms bought in involuntary sales, that is, foreclosures, sheriff sales, estate settlements and the like, was $8.27 per acre higher the first six months of this year than the average for the past two years. The average price of vol- untary sales for the State remained practically the same as for last year. Decided increase in the demand for farm lands was reported recently by John Fields, president of the Federal Land Bank of Wichita, Kan. before the meeting of the presidents of Fed- eral Land Banks with the Farm Loan Board, held in Washington.
