Ely, of University of Wisconsin, shows, by official tax records of states, and also figures compiled by bureau of economics of Department of Agriculture, that the states will soon absorb by taxa tion all income farm lands. It is a principle of law that to take the income from property is practically the same as to take the property itself. In Ohio farm lands between 1880 and 1920 increased in value from $45.97 to $113.17 an acre, while taxes from 1913-1921 increased 177 per cent. In Kansas values in creased from $10.98 in 1880 to $62.30 in 1920, and taxes 271 per cent from 1913 to 1921. Since 1920, the land values have decreased at an average o f . 20 per m. m. m. m.
