Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cost and Methods of Clearing Land in the Lake States At the present time very little logged-ofi' land that would make de sirable farm land can be bought for less than $15 to $25 per acre. As the cost of clearing varies from $20 to $90 per acre, the cost of farm land cleared of stumps Will run from $35 to 8115 per acre, the average being about 865. When the cost of other necessary improvements is added to this, it makes the ultimate cost of an improved farm higher than the price of equally as good a farm in many Of the older, Well settled agricultural sections of the United States. The high price of the logged-off land and the high cost of clearing seriously retard its development. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
