INDIANA IS BELOW NATIONAL AVERAGE IN FARM TENANTRY (Bv Associated Press1) INDIANAPOLIS, July 14 Two farmers retire every week in Indiana and turn their property over to tenants, according to figures of the United States census bureau on farm tenantry in the state. These figures show that in 1920 farms in Indiana operated by tenants totaled 65,557, while in 1910 tenants operated 64,687 farms. The increase of 900 tenants in the decade averages 90 a year, or nearly two a week. During the previous decade the numerical increase in farm tenantry was 1,239. Many deductions are possible from the figures on farm tenantry, but George C. Bryant, agricultural statistician for the United States Department of Agriculture, sees little cause for alarm. The tendency in Indiana is to stay on the farm, according to Mr. Bryant, who doubts that the landlord system will ever attain great proportions in this state. Stay Close to Farm. "Farmers in Indiana stay pretty close to the farm," says Mr. Bryant. Many of the youngsters leave the farm

tor me cny dui tne proiession or lanni , ' ti,,lt,v, Tr,. approximately one ad on7-th d per icent The farms operated by tenants in 1920 was 32 per cent of ihe total number of all farms in the state. In 1910 the number of tenant operated farms was 30 per cent of the total number of all farms. Indiana is below the general average of the United States in farm tenantry. Figures for the entire country show that 38.1 per cent of all the farms were operated by renters in 1920 and 37 per cent in 1910. The numerical figures for 1920 were 2, 54,- , . - - 2,354,676 in 1910. The last decade has shown an increase in tenant operation of farms in neighboring states. In Illinois the per cent in 1920 was 42.7 and 41.4 in 1910. In Michigan the per cent in 1920 was 17.7 and 15.8 in 1910. There is a tendency toward larger farms in Indiana, Mr. Bryant says. The buying of an adjoining twenty acres or an additional five or ten acres is not uncommon, he declares. This is shown by the fact that in 1920 there were only 203,126 farms in the state as compared with 215,485 in 1910. FARMER BREAKS NECK IN FALL OFF WAGON LOGANSPORT, Ind., July 14.

The Farm and The Farmer By William R. Sanborn

The Jerry Hudson farm near Everton, in Union county, suffered a serious loss during an electrical storm on Monday evening. Mr. and Mrs. Hudson were away from home at the time, but there were others on the place and neighbors quickly responded to the call for assistance when the fire was discovered. A large barn on the place was struck by lightning about 8 o'clock and the blazing structure sent its own fire signals over a wide area, to which a number of farmers answered in cars. The live stock was principally In the pastures, but one horse was burned in its stall. A lot of hay, a quantity of grain and a number of farm implements were burned and the big barn wp.s completely wiped out. No other buildings were lost. A Fayette county farmer says that alfalfa was due to be cut when the ! wheat harvest was in full swing two weeks or more ago. But the pressure of the wheat harvest prevented. It was not cut until late last week in several instances, by which time it was overripe and woody. Mixed hay suffered the same fate, in part.
