OFFICE STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE,
Boston, Mass., Dec. 1, 1894.

The Western States of the Union have expended large:
sums of money in advertising the fertility of their soil and
the advantages of a location within their borders. Recently
New England has done something in this line. In 1888,
Vermont, by an act of the Legislature, provided for the.
appointment of a commission to investigate the agricultural
and manufacturing interests of the State, and devise means
to develop the same. Mr. A. B. Valentine was appointed
commissioner under the act. He reported many abandoned
farms in the State of Vermont, and as an experiment three
small colonies of Swedish emigrants were induced to settle
in the State. Much information in regard to the unoccupied
and cheap farms was published in his reports. In 1892 the
Vermont State Board of Agriculture issued a pamphlet.
entitled ‘* Resources and attractions of Vermont, with a list.
of desirable homes for sale.”

New Hampshire provided by act of the Legislature of
1889 for the development of the agricultural resources of
the State, and N. J. Bachelder, secretary of the New Hamp-.
shire State Board of Agriculture, was appointed commis-
sioner of agriculture and emigration. He made report to.
the governor and council in August, 1890. Also, a pam-.
phlet entitled ‘* Secure a home in New Hampshire, where
comfort, health and prosperity abound,” was issued in 1890,
containing a list of farms for sale, a list of summer hotels,
full and interesting statistics and a map of the State. The
results were satisfactory, and another pamphlet with the same
title and similar contents was printed and circulated in 1891.
Other similar publications, illustrating and advertising the
advantages of a home and investments in real estate in New
Hampshire, have been from time to time issued and circulated.

In March, 1892, T. S. Gold, secretary of the Connecticut.
State Board of Agriculture, issued a pamphlet entitled ‘‘ De-.
scriptive catalogue of farms in Connecticut for sale.”
4

The sixth annual report of the Rhode Island Commissioner
of Industrial Statistics, January, 1893, devoted some forty
pages to abandoned farms in Rhode Island.

Part III. of the twenty-first annual report of the Massa-
chusetts Bureau of Statistics of Labor (1890), by Horace
G. Wadlin, was devoted to ‘‘ Abandoned farms in Massachu-
setts.” By authority of an act of the Legislature of 1891,
the secretary of the Massachusetts State Board of Agricul-
ture issued in November, 1891, ‘‘ A descriptive catalogue of
farms in Massachusetts abandoned and partially abandoned.”
The first edition was followed by a second edition in January,
1892, a third in November, 1892, a fourth in November,
1893. The number of farms sold as a result of the circula-
tion of these several editions has been so large that the
present fifth edition, with a large addition to the number of
farms catalogued, is issued.

The object of the above-mentioned publications of all the
New England States is to attract attention to the farms of
their sections, and to show the small sum necessary to pro-
cure a rural home, where the advantages of New England
schools, churches and home markets can be enjoyed. The
‘‘ causes for the decrease in the market value of Massachu-
setts farms” have been written and rewritten by numerous
newspaper and magazine writers. The special local reasons
for such decline are to be found largely in the fact that
Massachusetts is a commercial and manufacturing State.
The census shows that only about four per cent (including
both males and females) of the people follow agricultural
pursuits. The great majority are following other callings ;
and, as men naturally follow the fashion and the multitude,
it is not surprising that the enterprising young men of the
rural districts are attracted from agriculture. As the great
majority of the people follow some other calling than agri-
culture, of course only a small proportion of our successful
men are agriculturists. But we must look further and deeper
for the true reason for agricultural depression in this State.

Prof. W. H. Brewer of the Yale Scientific School, in a
lecture before the Massachusetts State Board of Agriculture,
in 1889, said: —
5

The agricultural depression of New England is not a mere local
fact; it is part of a great depression of the industry, which extends
all over Christendom, except in new regions, and the causes are
general, not local. It is in the West as well as in the East, and
cattle growers of the plains and wheat growers in Dakota are
complaining as loudly as the New England farmers. It is worse
in old England than in New England ; Germany is groaning under
it, and France is bemoaning it. It is sending thousands of de-
pressed peasants from sunny Italy to our shores, hoping to escape
the pressure that has fallen on them there. The causes for such a
wide-spread condition of things must be also wide-spread. They
are not local, and the disease cannot be cured by any local remedy.

The politicians in all the countries are seizing upon the facts to
gain advantage for their own views, promising to cure the trouble
by local legislation. In the United States and New England we are
told that our agricultural depression is caused by our protective
tariff; in Great Britain and old England the politicians say it is
caused. by their lack of a protective tariff, —they attribute it to
free trade ; in Germany the politicians tell the peasants it is caused
by a standing army; in France they are told that it is caused by
the overbearing attitude of Germany; in Italy, because of a
change in the political status; and so on, here one thing, there
another; but in each case the remedy they tell us is to be brought
about in some political way, by a change of administration or by
local legislation.

The real causes are economic, and belong neither especially to
tariff nor to no tariff, to republics, limited monarchies or absolute
monarchies. ,

Bear in mind that the money value of land depends upon a
variety of considerations ; partly on the density of the population,
partly on the desirability of location for business purposes, partly
on the markets, partly upon fertility, partly upon the character of
one’s neighbors; and so on through a variety of conditions, its
agricultural capacity being but one factor.

We hear much of the decadence of New England farming, and
all the great city newspapers are just now speaking of it. They
treat it as if it were an independent economical fact, and this
decline of farming in New England has been the subject of many
a pathetic article. But is it a fact that New England farming is
declining, in any other sense than that which applies to agricult-
ure all over Christendom? If so, in what sense is it declining?
It is changing unquestionably ; so is the farming of every civilized
region that is reached by railroads and telegraph. New England
farming is certainly changing, but I question very much if it is
6

declining, —I mean declining in the amount of its productions,
declining in the value of its productions, or declining in its relative
profits as compared with farming in other places, or even with many
other kinds of business. No safe investment pays so well to-day
as it did twenty-five years ago. It is more difficult now to make
safe investments yield five per cent than it was then to yield seven
or eight per cent. I believe, from all the data I have been able to
collect, that New England as a whole is not declining in its agri-
cultural productions, either as to amount or value. It is certain
that this State of Massachusetts is not.

We have a census of agricultural products of Massachusetts,
beginning fifty years ago; that is, going back to before the days
of railroad transportation and before the days of reaping machines
or telegraph. I have spent much time and study on agricultural
census tables in general, and of Massachusetts in particular,
because this State is the only one in New England which has a
census of its own, alternating with the national census, and more
complete than that in agricultural details. This is a rich theme for
study, but I can only glance at some of the facts which have an
especial bearing on the subject I am discussing.

The figures show that during the last ten years, the years of
greatest agricultural depression, not only in New England but
elsewhere, the total production did not decline, but actually in-
creased twenty-eight per cent; during this period the total area of
land in farms increased, the acreage of cultivated land increased,
and the number of persons employed in agriculture increased.
The decline, if there was any, was not in the amount of land tilled,
nor in the number of persons employed, nor in the value of prod-
ucts produced. :

If we look at the whole period of fifty years, the results are
very instructive. There has been an enormous increase, instead
of decline; some things have greatly declined, especially mutton,
cheese, wool and some other products ; but even grain-raising has
declined less than is popularly believed. I have constructed tables
showing the amount of each of the cereal grains produced in each
of the census years, and also the total amount of cereals. The
tables would be too extensive for this place ; sufficient to say that
the decline, even in grain, has not been great. Using only round
numbers, the hundreds of thousands of bushels, the decline has
been from 41 (hundred thousand bushels) in 1840 and 29 in 1845,
to 28 in 1880 and 31 in 1885. On the other hand, there has been
an enormous increase in many productions, For example, eggs,
from less than $26,000 in 1845 to over one and one-half millions
in 1885,— an increase of sixty-two fold. Hay has doubled in
7

value; milk has increased from less than $305,000 in 1845 to ten
and one-third millions in 1885.

I cite these figures more to show the changes in our agriculture
than to show that there is not a relative decline; because I wish
to impress the fact of the actual change going on in our New
England farming, and also the fact that, even rapid and great as
it has been, it has not been fast enough to keep up with the chang-
ing conditions.

Farming is certainly changing here, but the change in New Eng-
land is not so great as it is in old England, nor is it, after all,
attended with so much distress.

The American farmer, who owns the land he tills and is free to
change his methods and his crops, easier adjusts himself to the
new condition of things; and yet the decline in agricultural land
has gone on in all the older States. One writer says that it
amounts to a hundred million of dollars in Michigan; another,
twice that in New York; another states high figures as to the de-
cline in Illinois ; and so the story goes. Another class of writers
is discussing the amount and number of mortgages on farms, and
is trying to make political capital out of it; but foreign papers tell
us the same story of France and Germany and Italy. We all
know how the Italian peasants are now seeking relief by flocking
to America.

The fact cannot be denied that farming is under a cloud, and
has been so for the last few years; but I believe that the bottom
of the decline has been reached, at least in this country. The
United States has given away land, and the old States have had to
compete with land that cost nothing. But the land is practically
all given away now; the ‘‘ frontiers” are gone. So, too, the past-
urage is taken up, and hereafter land must be bought for farming,
and New England farms will again rise in value.

Massachusetts is a State of cities and large towns. Its
population of two and a quarter millions are large consumers
of agricultural products. This great army of consumers are
as a rule thriving or well-to-do. The luxuries of life are in
demand in Massachusetts. Fresh eggs and poultry, pure
milk, sweet butter, fresh fruits and vegetables are in demand
in season and out of season, and the market for such prod-
ucts is a home market.

Pages might be filled with expressions of opinion as to the
causes of the depreciation in value of farms and farm lands,
and with suggestions for reoccupancy ; but lack of space and
8

a desire to save expense forbid. There are a few things
which bear upon the matter, and cannot in justice be omitted ;
among these are State aid to agriculturists, educational privi-
leges, and facilities for travel and transportation. As has
been before stated, Massachusetts is not a farming State, for,
as shown by the State census, 8.28 per cent of the males
were engaged in agriculture in 1885, against 30.21 per cent
in manufactures, 10.18 per cent in trade, 5.22 per cent in
transportation, 17.63 per cent as scholars and 11.20 per
cent at home. In percentages of classified occupations
agriculture stood fifth. Yet by the United States census of
1890 it is found that the total number of our farms is 34,374,
with a total of 2,998,282 acres; total number of families
connected with these farms, 34,576 (owning free, 20,425;
owning encumbered, 8,945; hiring, 5,206); valuation of
land, fences and buildings, $127,538,284; valuation of im-
plements and machinery, $5,938,940 ; valuation of live stock
June 1, 1890, $14,200,178.

Massachusetts has been very generous to her agricultur-
ists, and has sought in many ways to protect and further her
agricultural interests. Among the institutions created by her
or made recipients of her bounty are the State Board of
Agriculture, established in 1852, with an office at the State
House, and now consisting of forty-five members, including
six members ex officio, suitably divided into committees,
and having six specialists; the Massachusetts Agricultural
College, incorporated in 1863 and located at Amherst in
Hampshire County, with net assets of $309,694.53, a faculty
of eighteen and over one hundred and fifty students ; a State
Agricultural Experiment Station, established at Amherst in
1882, and which has a station force of eleven and property
valued at $42,933.78; a State Board of Cattle Commission-
ers, established in 1860, and now consisting of five members,
with headquarters in Boston; a State Dairy Bureau, com-
posed of three members of the State Board of Agriculture,
with an executive and assistant executive officer in addition ;
and thirty-six incorporated agricultural and horticultural
societies, each having a representative on the Board of Agri-
culture, and each receiving an annual bounty from the Com-
monwealth. There is alsoa State grange organization, seven
9

Pomona granges, seven district granges, one hundred and
twenty subordinate granges, eight or more horticultural so-
cieties, sixty or more farmers’ clubs, besides poultry associa-
tions, village improvement societies, etc.

The State appropriations for agricultural purposes in 1894
amounted to $249,861.51; of which $100,000 was for gypsy
moth work, under the direction of the Board of Agriculture ;
$21,000 for bounties to agricultural societies ; $57,415.89 for
the Massachusetts Agricultural College ; $35,000 for the State
Cattle Commission ; $12,650 for the Massachusetts Agricult-
ural Experiment Station; and the balance, $23,795.62, for
the State Board of Agriculture.

In educational privileges Massachusetts stands second to
no State. Her colleges are known the world over; her
normal schools, seminaries and academies are models of their
kind; and her public schools are her pride and power. By
income from a large school fund, an efficient Board of
Education, school superintendents, graded schools and free
text-books, the opportunities for giving and receiving an
excellent public-school education are unrivalled, The Mas-
sachusetts’ school fund, Jan. 1, 1894, amounted to $3,670,-
548.14. The income from this fund is used largely to aid
and to promote the efficiency of the State normal schools
and the public schools of the poorer towns. The total State
educational appropriations in 1894 amounted to $538,250.

In addition, the State encourages and assists financially
the formation of free town libraries, and nearly every town
in the Commonwealth can boast of a free library, many of
which libraries are excellent both in size and quality. The
appropriation by the State in 1894 ‘to carry out the provi-
sions of the act to promote the establishment and efficiency
of free public libraries” was $3,000.

By chapter 476 of the Acts of 1893, and 497 of the Acts
of 1894, provision is made for a State Highway Commission,
to improve the public roads; and it is further provided that
‘whenever the county commissioners of a county, or the
mayor and aldermen of a city, or the selectmen of a town,
adjudge that the public necessity and convenience require
that the Commonwealth take charge of a new or an existing
road as a highway, in whole or in part, in that county, city
10

or town, they may apply by a petition in writing to the
Massachusetts Highway Commission, stating the road they
recommend, together with a plan and profile of the same.”

For the purpose of meeting any expenses that might be
incurred under these acts, the Legislature of 1894 author-
ized the State treasurer and receiver-general to issue scrip
or certificates of indebtedness to an amount not exceeding
$300,000, for a term not exceeding thirty years.

Said the «Boston Journal” of Sept. 18, 1891, ‘* The
problem of the decadence of country towns is made more
difficult undoubtedly by the need of good roads, which
would facilitate social intercourse, make farms more profita-
ble, and heighten the value of produce by bringing it into
more convenient connection with large towns.” Already
several pieces of State road have been planned for, and on
some work has already been begun. It is hoped and be-
lieved that the movement for State highways will prove of
great advantage to our rural communities. Along with bet-
ter roads will come, no doubt, an extension of electric rail-
roads, thus greatly lessening the inconvenience of travel and
traffic.

Agency of the State Board of Agriculture.

The State Board of Agriculture early became interested
in the work of Vermont and New Hampshire, and efforts
were put forth to do something in this State. The following
pages will give an outline of the methods used in the work,
and some of the apparent results obtained.

In the report of. the Secretary of the Board of Agricult-
ure to the Legislature, January, 1890, it was suggested that
if the Legislature would appropriate a small sum for the
expense, and give some officer authority to collect informa-
tion, good results might be realized. This suggestion was
repeated in January, 1891. At the annual meeting of the
Board of Agriculture, Feb. 5, 1891, it was ‘* Voted, That
the State Board of Agriculture petition the Legislature, now
in session, for such legislation as will provide for ascertain-
ing the number, location, value and other facts pertaining to
the abandoned farms and farm lands in the State; also the
most effective method of securing their reoccupancy.” The
Legislature of 1891 enacted the following law : —
11

[Cuap. 280.]
An AcTr TO AUTHORIZE THE STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE TO
COLLECT AND CIRCULATE INFORMATION RELATING TO ABANDONED
FARMS.

Be it enacted, eic., as follows:

Section 1. The State Board of Agriculture is hereby authorized
to collect all necessary information in regard to the opportunities
for developing the agricultural resources of the Commonwealth
through the repopulating of abandoned or partially abandoned
farms, and cause the facts obtained, and a statement of the advan-
tages offered, to be circulated where and in such manner as the
said board may consider for the best interests of the Common-
wealth.

Secr. 2. In order to properly carry out the provisions of section
one of this act, a sum not exceeding two thousand dollars may be
expended, and the bills for such expenditures properly approved
by the persons authorized by said State Board to investigate the
matter, shall be sent to the Auditor of the Commonwealth, who
shall certify them in the same manner as other claims against the
Commonwealth.

Secr. 3. This act shall take effect upon its passage.

Approved May 4, 1891.

At a meeting of the executive committee, May 21, 1891,
it was ‘* Voted, That the secretary be instructed to prepare
a circular for transmission to the assessors of the several
cities and towns of the Commonwealth, asking said assess-
ors to return to the State Board of Agriculture, upon a
blank prepared for the purpose, the names of the owners
of abandoned or partially abandoned farms situated in
different parts of the State.” Accordingly the following
circular was prepared and sent to each of the cities and
towns in the Commonwealth : —

COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS.

State BoarpD oF AGRICULTURE, SECRETARY'S OFFICE,
CoMMONWEALTH BUILDING, Boston, June 16, 1891.

To the Assessors of Massachusetts.

GENTLEMEN :— The following law has been enacted by the

Legislature : —
(See above, chapter 280, sections 1, 2, 3.)

The object is to make known opportunities for the purchase, at
a low price, of farms in Massachusetts. You will of course notice
12

that the law does not require you to assist in the work, but it is
belicved that you will be interested in a scheme which has for its
end the prosperity of your towns, and will be willing to help the
Board of Agriculture in gathering information that can be spread
before the public to the advantage of the owners of abandoned
or partially abandoned farms, and of would-be purchasers.

The towns which contain such farms will be benefited by having
them owned and improved by persons residing upon them. The
plan of action is not yet fully matured; but, without question, the
first thing to be done is to get a list and description of such farms.

As the assessors are better acquainted with such lands and their
owners than are any other citizens, we apply to you for informa-
tion. The law makes it our duty to obtain information and
circulate the same in regard to abandoned or partially abandoned
farms in the Commonwealth.

We must leave it largely to your judgment to interpret the
phrase ‘‘ partially abandoned farms,” but would suggest that a
farm which is not occupied for purposes of cultivation or a sum-
mer home, and is for sale at a low price, might be called an
abandoned or partially abandoned farm.

It will of course be of little use to call attention to farms that
have been so long abandoned that the buildings have disappeared
and the land mostly grown up to brush and wood; but sizable
tracts of land suitable for purposes of cultivation or for grazing,
though without buildings, should be considered. It will also be
of little use to call attention to farms that are not on the market
for what would be called a low price in proportion to their pro-
ductive capacity.

Will you kindly write in the enclosed blank the names and post-
office addresses of the owners of such farms, in your town, as
may seem to you to come within the meaning of the law? We
shall issue a circular of inquiry for particular description, location,
price, etc., to the owners whose names you may furnish us. Woe
will keep you informed of the progress of the work, and shall very
likely need your further aid. Any suggestions will be gladly
received and considered.

In order that the necessary information from the owners may
be seasonably obtained, it will be necessary that this blank be
returned before July 1, 1891. If you have no farms that seem to
you to come within the meaning of the law, please return the

blank with such remarks thereon as will describe the situation in
your town.

THE MASSACHUSETTS STATE BOARD OF AGRICULTURE,
Wm. R. Szssrons, Secretary.

GENTLEMEN : — The Legislature at its last session enacted the follow
ing law: —
(See page 11, chapter 280, sections 1, 2, 3.)

In discharge of the duty devolving upon the Board of Agriculture
under the provisions of this statute, a circular has been addressed
to the assessors of the several cities and towns of the State, ask-
ing them to report to this board the names of the owners of
abandoned or partially abandoned farms. Your name has been
14

 

reported by the assessors of -as the owner of such property.
‘Tf you desire to dispose of the property, please answer the follow-
ing questions in regard to the same, subscribe to the affidavit
below before a justice of the peace, and forward it in the enclosed
envelope. This description and affidavit will be retained in this
office for reference. A catalogue of such farms, with description
and price, will be printed and widely distributed. There will be
no expense to the owners of the property. Please be prompt in
replying, as nothing further can be done by us until all informa-
tion has been received.

The circulation of the first edition (3,000 copies) of the
descriptive catalogue of abandoned or partially abandoned
farms, containing 330 descriptions, began Dec. 5, 1891.
Requests for the catalogue came from nearly every State in
the Union, and within two months the entire edition was
exhausted. About one-third of the edition was sent to
owners or agents of the property described, to assessors, to
members of the Board of Agriculture and to officers of
agricultural societies. The remainder were sent or given
only upon request. The matter in this edition was stereo-
typed, to lessen the cost of possible future editions.

The circulation of a second edition of 1,500 copies of the
catalogue began Feb. 1, 1892. Nine new descriptions were
included in this edition, making a total of 339. Requests
for the catalogue were received from time to time, until by
the middle of September the edition became exhausted.
The distribution of this edition was very largely through
requests by mail and at the office.

In order to supply the demand for the catalogues it became
necessary to prepare a third edition, and the issue of 2,000
copies of this began Nov. 26, 1892. The distribution was
made through request only, and by the 1st of October, 1893,
the supply was totally exhausted. Forty-four new descrip-
tions, obtained from various sources, were included in this
edition, making a total of 383 descriptions received to date.

A fourth edition of the catalogue was prepared in the fall
of 1893, and the issue of 2,000 copies began November 5.
Seventeen new descriptions were added to this edition, mak-
ing a total of 400 descriptions received to date. This edition
not being sufficient to supply the demand for the catalogues,
it was decided in July, 1894, to issue a fifth edition. To
make this edition as exhaustive as possible, the executive
committee decided to call upon the members of the Board for
their personal assistance, and the following circular letter was
issued : —

Orrice STATE BoaRD OF AGRICULTURE,
Boston, Mass., Aug. 2, 1894.

Dear Sir:—The executive committee of this Board, at a
meeting held July 25, 1894,’ ‘* Voted, That the secretary be
authorized to expend as much as may be necessary of the amount
16

remaining of the appropriation for collecting and circulating in-
formation regarding abandoned and partially abandoned farms,
in collecting information and printing and circulating another
edition of the catalogue of such farms.”

Also the committee ‘‘ Voted, That the members of the Board of
Agriculture be and are hereby requested to aid the secretary in
collecting further information to be used in making up the forth-
‘coming catalogue, to the end that said catalogue be as complete
as possible.”

It is our plan to issue another catalogue of abandoned and par-
tially abandoned farms for sale the coming autumn. The previous
editions have met with much favor, and have, we believe, been
instrumental in calling attention to the opportunities Massachu-
setts country towns offer for the purchase of farms and summer
homes at avery low price. Many sales have resulted. We desire
to accomplish much more with the coming edition than we have
with any previous one. To that end we are anxious to include in
it all property that has a rightful place therein. We have thought
that the members of the Board could give us needed assistance in
gathering the desired information.

The law authorizes us to collect and circulate information re-
garding ‘‘ abandoned and partially abandoned farms.” The term
*¢ partially abandoned” we interpret to mean such farms as are
not farmed as a business, and are for sale at a low price in pro-
portion to their productive capacity, eligibility and beauty of loca-
tion and cost of the buildings. We must leave it largely to your
judgment as to what property shall be included in the catalogue.
‘Our idea is that the members are probably acquainted with most
of such property lying in their own towns, and with the owners
thereof, and are also very likely acquainted with some prominent,
public-spirited man in each of the towns within the jurisdiction of
their societies, who could and would give to the member of the
Board inquiring the desired information for his town.

What we desire from the members of the Board is a list of the
names and post-office addresses of the owners of such property
within the jurisdiction of the societies they represent. We will
correspond with the owner for description and particulars. The
expense incurred by members of the Board in this work may be
included in the bill of travelling and necessary expenses of each
member, and will be paid from the appropriation for that purpose.
We expect also to be able to pay. each member not less than three
dollars per day for time spent in this work, out of the appropriation
for collecting and circulating information concerning this species
of property. It will also be allowable for members who cannot
17

spend the time to employ a suitable agent to do the work for them..
‘But, as the appropriation is small, it will be necessary that the.
utmost economy be exercised, so that the expenses shall not ex-
ceed the appropriation. We desire the report of names and post-
office addresses of owners not later than September 1. Shall be-
glad to answer specific questions of members as to the plan of pro-
cedure and amount of money that can be afforded, by letter, on.

application.
Respectfully,

Wma. R. Ssssions, Secretary.

The members of the Board gave valuable assistance, and.
reported 541 new farms. Twenty-four new farms were re-
ported from other sources, making a total of 565. As a
partial result of this work, 143 new descriptions have been
received, and are included in the catalogue as an addenda to.
the fifth edition.

A summary of the work of this office to date shows the
following results : —

Up to December 1, returns have been received concern-
ing 354 of the 400 farms described in the four editions of
the catalogue. Of these, 150 owners reported their farm
sold, 79 wished for various reasons to have the description
of their farm withdrawn from the catalogue, and 125 wished
the description of their farm continued in the fifth edition.
Nothing has been heard concerning 46 farms.

The preceding table shows the location of the farms sold
and withdrawn, and the descriptions of these farms are
marked with red ink. One object of this method of desig-
nating farms sold or withdrawn is to save expense, as the
pages of descriptions were stereotyped when set up; and
another object is to show at a glance just what has been done.

Unquestionably a large majority of the purchasers of these
farms are of American parentage. The returns showing
nationality are not as full as wished, but the names substan-
tiate the above statement.

Ninety purchasers were residents of Massachusetts at the
time of purchase, 5 of New York, 5 of Connecticut, 2 of
New Hampshire, 2 of Florida, 2 of Ohio, 1 of Rhode Island,
1 of New Jersey and 1 of Nova Scotia, while the residence
of 41 has not been reported. Fifty-six of the farms sold were
reported as sold for farming purposes, 14 for a home, 11 for
an investment, 5 for farming purposes and poultry raising,
6 for dairying and stock raising, 5 for summer residence,
4 for poultry raising, 2 for sheep raising, 1 for poultry rais-
ing and market gardening, 1 for cranberry culture, 1 for the
wood and lumber, while the intentions of 44 purchasers have
not been obtained.

By the State census of 1885 there were 45,010 farms in
the State, representing a total acreage of 3,898,429}; aver-
age acreage, 86.61; total value of lands and buildings, $185,-
118,925; average value of lands and buildings, $4,112.83.

The total acreage of the 543 farms advertised in the cata-
logue is 61,7634; average acreage, 113.72; total amount
asked for the farms, $907,030; and average amount asked
for the farms, $1,670.40.

The total acreage of the 150 farms reported sold is 15,1103,
or an average acreage of 100.73. The 150 farms sold for a
total of $229,125, or an average of $1,527.50.
20

The total acreage of the 79 farms withdrawn is 8,0037%,
or an average of 101.30. The 79 farms withdrawn were
valued at $125,925, or an average of $1,593.98.

The cost of this work has been comparatively slight, as
will be seen by the following statement: —

Appropriation under chapter 280, Acts of 1891, . $2,000 00
Amount unused and reverting back to State treas-

ury at the end of two years, Dec. 31, 1892, 858 50

Balance on hand Dec. 1, 1894, , ‘ ‘é ‘ : $639 19.

Such part of this balance as may be necessary will be used
in paying the expenses of printing and circulating the fifth
edition of two thousand copies.

It is again desired to call the attention of parties having
property of this kind to the opportunities offered, in order
that they may send descriptions, which may be included in
future editions of the catalogue, if published. Two thou-
sand copies of the fifth edition have been printed, and cata-
logues will be sent to any one free of expense upon application
to this office.
