1 The ratios of rent to value in this table were obtained by taking the ratio of totalrent to total value on 
the one-year tenant farms. The average values in the table were rounded oil* to the nearest dollar so that 
the ratios figured on the basis of average rents and average values will not always be identical with the 
ratios in the table. The difference, however, is seldom greater than 0.1 per cent. 
A comparison of the two maps shows that in general the high- 
value areas are the high-rent areas and the low-value areas the low- 
rent areas, but this is true for the whole country only in a very 
general way. The areas having the same average gross rent do not 
always have the same average values. Compare, for instance, the 
eastern with the western Corn Belt, that is, group 7 with group 10. 
The average gross rents appear to be about the same in both areas. 
but the average land values are decidedlv higher in group 10. Table
