LUCKY MORTGAGED FARMS.
The department of agriculture atl-
Iouncea that the average value of
farm lands in the United States has
been increasing at the rate of about 5
' per cent. annually for several. years,
and the increase IfloI year was no less
than it) per rent. |

however, that much of this increase is
illusory. The land is worth more dol-
'lara, but these dollars will not buy
no much. Values in general are ris-

dollar is sinking. ‘

for rejoicing is that his land has real.

cheaper money.
'As for the farmer whose land is
