Creenshields of the bureau of agricultural economics. Far mer' land, buildincs maehin. ery, equipment, livestock, and crops on nand were over 90 bil lion dollars last year. And the products of American farms last year were valued at about 25 billion dollars. Oregon has 63.125 farms, ae cordine to the 1945 census nf bit. riculture. They average about 313 acres in size, but many are smaller and some much larger. Well over two-thirds of the land in farms in Oregon is owned by the operator. The proportion of owner-operated land as compar ed to rented land was larger in 1946 than in any other year for which census data are availa ble. The average size of farm in Oregon in 1945 also was lar ger than in previous census years, especially in Eastern Or egon. In several counties where county agricultural planning conferences were held during the past winter, land use com mittees expressed concern about the trend toward larger acre ages. They regarded the trend toward fewer and larger farms as a danger to the welfare of .he rural community. On the other hand, the census data indicate a trend toward more and more small part-time .arms and rural residences hav ing a comparable small amount of production, especially in wes :ern Oregon. Thus the total number of farms in Oregon has increased, despite an increase in ;he average acreage per farm. o IONE NEWS . . .
