They assert there is enough moisture in the ground now to mature the growing wheat since the crust which has retarded the plants has been broken.

land value. In our complex society, ownership of land values may take the form of stock in the steel trust, in the oil trust, in a railway or even in a navigation company. Aside from land-values, the only considerable sources of legally acquired "excessive" fortunes today are the tariff and the Internal revenue taxes. As to "assessing farm-lands solely according to 'fertility," fertility is not the main factor in the value of farmland. Location is by far the greater factor.

Of two farms of equal size and fertility, one adjoining a desirable town and the other fifteen miles distant, the former will have much the greater value.
