A report has just been issued jj

Tiiis report shows that the es
timated debt on owned farms in
1890 v,as $1,080,000 and the total
value of these farms wen
mated at $3,055,000,000, the ratio fg
of debt to value .be-inir ".( i'v.o'.'H

The mortgage debt -on similar g
and the total estimated value of
these farms was given as $17,609
000,000 the ratio of debt to value
being 28.4 per cent. The value
of the farms during' the thirty
year period showed an increase
of 476.4 per cent while the mort-

rared debt increased onlv 3(j.5 H

healthy condition generally with
respect to farm ownersliip.

in this section and the South
which it will take many years to
liquidaie. .It is a regrettable con
dition, for when there is a mort
gage oj. the farm the interest on
this mortgage, at least, must be
earned before there is any profit
to Xh.) owner. Farming on heav
ily mortgaged land is an up-hill
undertaking and the obligation
should never be incurred except

RUSSIA ANXIOUS TO' RE-

Russia has agreed to admit
and assume war and prewar
debts and abandon counter claims
provided they are granted-adequate
financial help in their ef
fort lo rehabilitate the country
and pur it again on a firm finan
cial basis.
All hough the American gov-ernment-
did not see fit to par
ticipate in the present economic
conference, vet all eves are turn
ed to this country for it is reeog-
nizeu that etteetive renei m
financial way cannot be accord
ed Russia without the help of
this country.'

If Russia had been granted
Ibis consideration many -months
ago there probably never would
-have been such a close association
with Germany and the treaty
whieh is .'causing so -much-discussion
'probably, neve would have
been drawn nor ratified. Whal-
