Many such five-acre tract owners will eventually be come a credit risk, Shepard said. When the farmer does not make money, he does not spend, and soon all salaried workers in the towns dependent upon the farms feel the pinch of the farmer's non production. Salem was listed by the speaker as one of those cities dependent upon fanners. In place of five-acre tracts Shepard suggested two-acre tracts for the family which wishes to have more space than is available in town. Without the high priced extra three acres the owner may have room enough perhaps to keep a cow and some chickens without competing with those who raise milk for sale on whole sale basis.
