"The opportunity to own farms ought to be kept open for people of moderate means and we have the question of how the man with 82000 can be financed in buying a $10,000 farm, or how the man with $5000 can be financed in buying a -$20,000 farm.’’ declared Dr. Elwood Mead of California at the western states ex tension conference at the Multnomah hotel in Portland this week. "A great many questions entsr in to this. Length of time in which to make payments; interest rate which a settler can afford to pay; aid and advice needed to avoid mistakes and to use the settler’s labor and capital to the best advantage. We have to evolve a credit system under which money can be borrowed to complete Improvements and to buy needed livestock. Here is a fruitful and al most unexplored field for the exten sion service. “ The entire country Is interested In the disquieting increase in farm tenancy and in measures to either lessen its growth or change Its char acter. Notwithstanding the great in crease in population in this country during the last decade, 23,000 less farms are cultivated by owners than 10 years ago. Unless something is done to check this extension of non resident ownership, more than half the farms of this country will be cul tivated by renters 10 years from now. The last census showed that four out of every ten farms were cultivated by tenants. The disastrous slump in farm prices is leading to a great increase in foreclosures and consequent increase In tenants. In many of the states from 20 to 25 per cent of the farms will be sold under mortgage foreclosure In 1922. In some counties 70 per cent of the farms are now held by non-residents. "In the absence of either laws or customs to give the tenant some se curity of tenure on the farm, to pro tect him In the payment of Improve ment made, to give him some reward for the increased fertility due to good cultivation and applying fer tilizers. tenancy In this country Is synonomous with neglected build ings. depleted fertility and a lack of interest in education, roads and things which make country life at tractive. "Because the extension service comes in direct contact with the life of the people and knows what farms are cultivated by the tenants and the percentage of farms cultivated by their owners, It is the best situated of all educational agencies to help work out plans for restricting ten ancy or giving it more desirable character than It has today."
