THE FARM TAX PROBLEM IN MISSOURI 209 Missouri the average of the three groups shows a ratio of 20.19, for the same year. The difference is equally marked when the ratios computed from the combined data are compared.

Table 63 shows similar data for taxes and net rents in two counties in North Dakota for the years 1919 through 1924. Again the comparison is entirely in favor of Missouri. In no year of the period for which data for both states are given does Missouri show so high a ratio as North Dakota. The same applies to a comparison between South Dakota and Missouri, based on the data in Tables 64 and 59. In both of the Dakotas the ratios for the years 1920, 1921, and 1922 were much higher than in Missouri, although in 1923 the difference for South Dakota was not quite so marked. Table 65 shows the results of a property tax and net rent study of selected farms in Michigan for the years 1919 through 1926. A comparison of this table with the Missouri data indicates that the farms studied in Missouri show a much more favorable ratio of taxes to net rent than is the case in Michigan. It is also clear that the net rent per acre in Michigan, as well as in North Dakota and South Dakota, was on a much lower level than in the counties studied in Missouri. In spite of the much lower net rent per acre in Michigan, taxes per acre were at a much higher level through-
