ACP Funds Cut V - J '’ <> FRIDAY, MARCH 30, 1043 FARM LAND HIGH Oregon’s general farm land price level lias reached the same height as at the peak of the World War 1 boom, according to an analysis of farm real estate data by L. R. Breithaupt, extension agricultural economist at OSC. The figures show that average prices for farm land in Oregon are up to 165 per cent of j 935^939 leJel> just equal to average prices of farm Und 0reKon 192O-1921. Fewer farm transfers a re be- jn^ reported in m any areas of the country, another significant fact about the farm land situation that is shown by data received by the eJttenaion fr(>m thc Li.. g Department of Agriculture, Apparently, the number of farm „1*., reached a peak during the first quarter of 1944. ♦ Despite the slower rate of trans fers, land prices continued to ad vance and on March 1, 1945 the average, both in Oregon and for the whole country, whs 11 per cent above March 1, 1944. .This situation—with transfers slowing down and prices going up—re sembles the trends near the peak 0/ the World War I land boom, Brcithaupt «aid. Transfers slowed down then ab out a year before the peak in land prices was reached. Subsequently, land prices in Oregon declined 45 .per cent in thirteen years. Thc downtrend in land price« was ac companied by a hTgh rate of , in • voluntary farm transfers through foreclosure yid otherwise. while they last. Ted M.
