Excerpt from Implement Sheds
To the progressive man, figures speak more forcibly than does the most persuasive lecturer on economic topics. The report of the United States Census for 1910 contains some figures that bear a distinct message to the farmers of the country. In 1900 the value of all farm property in the shape of farm implements and machinery was in 1910 this same value had increased to representing an increase of per cent. This increase can be ascribed mainly to increased quantity rather than to higher prices, for the increase in price of farm machinery has been comparatively slight. It means that the farmers are realizing the benefits to be derived from the use of labor saving machinery. In 1900 the acreage of improved land in farms was in 1910 this became an increase of only I per cent. These figures may be a little more significant if expressed in the following way: In 1900 there was worth of machinery for each acre of ima proved farm land; in 1910 this had increased to or an increase of over 47 per cent.
