Oh. no. but it has been made several times in thi Senate. When it was started the figures representing the aggregate valuation of the farms in Iowa under the census of 1880 were given as representing the amount of farm mortgages and amounted to $567.000.000. but the actual figures as ascertained by Governor Larrabee upon definite inquiry reduced the alleged amount of farm mortgages to about the sum of $71.000.000. and I think I can safely saythat sum has been reduced considerably since it was ascertained. Further than that. I will remark. in connection with the condition of the farming interests in Iowa. that they have never been in better condition and that all the Iowa farmers need is to have the exact truth told about the condition of the farming interests in that State to induce immigration there by tens of thousands.
