SOME LIGHT SHED
ON FUTURE TREND
IN FARM DIVISION
A partial answer to the question
of how many additional farms can be
developed in Oregon by subdividing
present farm lands is given in a new
bulletin, “Land Settlement in the
Willamette Valley, with Special Ref
erence to Benton County,” just issued
as O. S. C. station bulletin 407.
The 'bulletin embodies the report
of an intensive study made in Ben
ton county by Vernon W. Baker of
the bureau of agricultural economics,
in cooperation with the department
of farm management at . S. C. Be
cause of its fertile soils, mild climate,
and general reputation as a steady
infiltration of new farm families,
the bulletin points out.
While the future is heavily cloud
ed by the present war and uncertain
ty of coming conditions, the situation
at the time the study was made
showed that only about 7 per cent of
the present farm ownerships in the
county are sufficiently large to per
mit subdivision into two or more ade
quate sized units for full-time farm
ing. Most of these, in fact, lie along
the flood plains of the Willamette
river, where both clearing and flood
