Overview

Excerpt from How to Choose a Farm With a Discussion of American Lands IF the people of America should stop acquiring land, in one generation no land would be owned therein. Probably all the land changes hands by purchase, gift or inheritance, on an average, at least three times in a century. Since comparatively little farm land is held by corporations, this change of ownership involves usually a distinct change in management. There is, perhaps, on this account less continuity of effort in farm enterprises than in other industries. The laws of inheritance, combined with other factors, tend rather to bring the land into the general market than to maintain it within the family circle. The result is that land is constantly coming on the market in old and well-settled regions as well as in the newer and less developed parts of the country.
