STATISTICS  OF  FARMS,  HOMES,  AND  MORTGAGES. 

KANSAS. 


DEPARTMENT  OF  THE  INTERIOR, 

Census  Office, 
"Washington,  D.  O,  October  5,  1891. 
Sir: 

The  bulletin  herewith  presented  shows  the  number  of  mortgages  placed  on  record  during  the  10  years  1SS0-'S9 
in  Kansas  and  the  amount  of  said  indebtedness.  Tables  are  also  presented  showing  the  actual  existing  indebtedness, 
interest  rates,  classified  amounts  of  loans,  and  other  facts  relating  to  the  mortgage  indebtedness  of  the  state. 
According  to  the  results  obtained  direct  by  the  agents  of  the  Census  Office  from  the  official  records  of  the  municipalities 
and  counties  of  the  state,  it  appears  that  a  recorded  real  estate  mortgage  debt  of  $482,699,640,  excluding  state  and 
railroad  land  contracts,  was  incurred  in  Kansas  during  the  10  years  18S0-'S9,  a  large  portion  of  which  has  been  paid. 
Of  this,  $343,268,234,  or  71.11  per  cent  of  the  total,  incumbered  "  acres  ",  which  are  almost  entirely  agricultural  real 
estate,  and  $139,431,406,  or  28.89  per  cent,  incumbered  "  lots  ",  or  village,  city,  and  other  real  estate.  The  total 
number  of  mortgages  recorded  during  the  10  years  was  620,049,  of  which  415,622,  Or  67.03  per  cent  of  the  total, 
were  on  acres  and  204,427,  or  32.97  per  cent,  were  on  lots. 

The  existing  debt  of  the  state  of  Kansas  (January  1,  1890)  secured  by  real  estate  mortgage,  aside  from  state 
and  railroad  land  contracts,  as  shown  by  this  investigation,  aggregates  $235,485,108.  The  methods  adopted  by  the 
Census  Office  to  ascertain  existing  debt  have  been  heretofore  fully  explained  (Census  Bulletin  No.  5,  May  15,  1890, 
and  Extra  Census  Bulletin  No.  3,  April  22,  1891),  and  I  have  not  deemed  it  necessary  to  go  over  this  ground 
again,  as  these  explanations  will  appear  in  the  final  volume  relating  to  the  statistics  of  farms,  homes,  and 
mortgages.  Of  the  total  amount  of  existing  debt  thus  returned,  $167,145,039,  or  70.98  per  cent,  is  on  acres,  or 
almost  exclusively  farms,  and  $68,340,069,  or  29.02  per  cent,  on  lots. 

The  letterpress  prepared  by  Messrs.  George  K.  Holmes  and  John  S.  Lord,  special  agents  in  charge  of  this 
work,  brings  out  many  interesting  and  important  facts,  showing  the  rates  of  interest,  the  average  life  of  mortgages, 
and  the  purpose  for  which  the  debt  was  incurred.  From  the  accompanying  tables  and  other  official  data  the 
following  statement  has  been  compiled  : 

Percentage  of  estimated  true  value  of  all  taxed  real  estate,  including  improvements  (not  including 

railroad  real  estate),  represented  by  the  debt  in  force 27.25 

Percentage  of  estimated  true  value  of  all  taxed  acres,  including  improvements  (not  including  railroad 

real  estate),  represented  by  the  debt  in  force  against  acres 28.00 

Percentage  of  the  estimated  true  value  of  all  taxed  lots,  including  improvements  (not  including  railroad 

real  estate),  represented  by  the  debt  in  force  against  lots 25.57 

Percentage  of  the  total  number  of  taxed  acres  represented  by  the  number  of  mortgaged  acres 58.24 

Percentage  of  the  estimated  true  value  of  the  mortgaged  acres,  including  improvements,  represented  by 

the  debt  in  force  against  acres 48.07 

Average  amount  of  debt  in  force  per  assessed  acre §3.87 

Average  amount  of  debt  in  force  per  mortgaged  acre |6.65 

Average  number  of  acres  covered  by  a  mortgage  in  force 130 

Average  value  of  a  mortgaged  acre,  including  improvements §13.83 

Average  amount  of  debt  in  force  to  each  mortgage  in  force $860.96 

Average  estimated  true  value  of  acre  real  estate,  including  improvements,  covered  by  each  mortgage  in 

force §1,797.90 

These  results  are  consistent  with  what  is  otherwise  known  of  the  affairs  in  Kansas,  and  they  confirm  the 
accuracy  of  the  investigation  in  that  state.     Of  the  total  debt  in  force  against  acres,  34  per  cent  is  on  real  estate  in

the  western  half  of  the  state,  where  values  are  low  and  where  settlement  was  made  but  a  few  years  ago,  largely 
upon  public  land.  This  has  a  great  effect  on  state  averages  based  on  value.  The  debt  in  force  per  capita  is  $165 
and  per  family  of  5  $825,  but  these  ratios  are  not  sound  because  of  many  nonresident  owners  of  mortgaged  real 
estate.     The  recorded  debt  of  the  state  of  Kansas  decreased  42.49  per  cent  from  1887  to  1889. 

In  examining  the  motives  it  will  be  found  that  purchase  money,  improvements,  and  business  were  the 
inducements  for  incurring  56  per  cent  of  the  existing  debt  in  Decatur  county,  80  per  cent  in  Jefferson  county,  75 
per  cent  in  Lincoln  county,  75  per  cent  in  Lyon  county,  and  82  per  cent  in  Pawnee  county.  The  proportion  of 
debt  incurred  for  business  purposes  is  very  small,  generally  less  than  7  or  8  per  cent.  It  is  safe  to  say  that  fully 
three-fourths  of  the  debt  of  Kansas  was  incurred  for  purchase  money  and  improvements. 

The  question  as  to  how  much  of  the  indebtedness  in  force  is  held  by  residents  of  the  state  has  been  frequently 
asked,  but  many  obstacles  prevent  a  complete  answer,  except  in  the  "  inquiry  "  counties.  The  following  table 
shows  the  mortgages  in  force  made  to  residents  of  the  state,  not  including  mortgage  companies  and  loan  agents  :

These  counties,  I  think,  fairly  represent  the  holdings  in  the  state  of  Kansas,  and  show  that  forty-five  per  cent 
of  the  indebtedness  thereof  is  held  by  residents. 

The  relation  of  the  mortgage  indebtedness  to  the  true  value  of  property  is  an  element  that  should  not  be  ignored 
in  estimating  the  burden  of  the  debt.  Mr.  Henry  Gannett,  geographer,  and  special  agent  of  the  Tenth  Census,  after 
a  thorough  investigation,  placed  the  true  value  of  all  property  in  the  state  in  1880  at  $760,000,000.  The  assessed 
valuation  of  taxable  property,  real  and  personal,  including  railroads,  in  the  state  of  Kansas  in  1880,  as  published  in 
the  reports  of  the  Tenth  Census,  was  $160,891,689.  The  like  assessed  valuation  for  1890  is  $348,459,944.  Assuming 
that  the  ratio  between  the  true  and  the  assessed  valuation  in  1890  should  be  the  same  as  for  1880,  the  true  valuation 
of  all  property  for  1890  would  be  $1,646,000,000. 

The  estimate  of  true  valuation  for  1880  was  made  by  Mr.  Gannett  after  searching  inquiry  and  a  careful 
investigation  of  the  completed  statistics  of  wealth  collected  by  the  Census  Office  for  that  year.  Such  statistics  for 
1890  have  as  yet  been  only  partially  tabulated,  and  the  replies  to  inquiries,  of  which  thousands  have  been  received, 
have  not  yet  been  brought  together  in  available  form.  There  is,  however,  considerable  information  at  hand 
concerning  the  true  value  of  property  in  Kansas.  The  governor  of  that  state,  in  reply  to  an  inquiry  from  this 
office  as  to  the  relation  between  the  assessed  valuation  of  property  in  his  state  and  its  true  valuation,  states  in  a 
letter  of  the  26th  ultimo :  "In  this  state  I  am  satisfied  that  the  assessed  valuation  of  real  and  personal  property 
does  not  exceed  25  per  cent  of  the  real  valuation,  and  in  this  the  secretary  of  the  state  board  of  agriculture  and 
auditor  of  state  concur  ". 

The  several  county  clerks  of  the  state  have  rendered  to  the  Census  Office  reports  of  assessed  and  estimated 
true  valuation  of  property  by  minor  divisions  in  their  respective  counties,  and  their  average  estimates  of  true  value 
confirm  the  estimate  of  the  state  officers.  Assuming  that  the  assessed  value  of  the  property  of  the  state  is  25  per 
cent  of  the  true  value,  as  agreed  by  the  state  and  county  officials,  the  total  value  of  assessed  property  in  the  state 
would  be  $1,393,839,776  ;  but  this  does  not  represent  the  true  value  of  all  property  in  Kansas.  There  is  in  addition 
the  property  exempt  from  taxation  and  taxable  property  escaping  taxation.  If  the  estimate  of  total  true  valuation, 
$1,646,000,000,  is  correct,  then  the  value  of  the  exempt  and  that  escaping  taxation  would  necessarily  be  $252,160,224. 


STATISTICS  017  KANSAS.  3 

As  to  the  former  class,  the  state  constitution  of  Kansas  exempts  from  taxation  all  property  used  exclusively  for 
state,  county,  literary,  educational,  scientific,  religious,  benevolent,  and  charitable  purposes,  and  personal  property 
to  the  amount  of  at  least  $200  for  each  family.     A  number  of  these  values  are  known  as  follows : 

For  educational  purposes,  lands  and  buildiugs 610 ,  617 ,  151 

School  funds  and  contracts 10,546,635 

Church  property '..  8,801,870 

State  institutions 5,779,739 

In  all 35,745,395 

There  were  also  in  the  state  in  1890,  as  shown  by  the  figures  of  this  office,  297,358  families  entitled  to  the 
exemption  named.  This  exemption,  however,  is  of  valuation  as  assessed,  which,  as  before  stated,  is  not  more  than 
one-fourth  of  the  true  value,  thus  giving  to  each  family  $800  of  personal  property  (some  authorities  claim  it  is 
nearer  $1,000)  on  which  no  tax  is  paid.  Assuming  this  amount,  however,  to  be  but  $800,  there  would  arise 
$237,886,400  additional  exempt  property,  which,  in  connection  with  the  other  amount  stated,  gives  a  total  of  exempt 
property  in  the  state  of  $273,631,795,  nearly  $22,000,000  in  excess  of  that  required  to  make  up  the  total  estimate 
arrived  at  in  the  first  instance  and  based  on  the  census  returns  of  1880.  The  estimate  of  $1,646,000,000  as  the  true 
value  of  all  property  taxed  and  not  taxed  for  the  state  of  Kansas  is  warranted  by  the  facts.  The  mortgage 
indebtedness  of  the  state,  aggregating  as  it  does  $235,485,108,  would  therefore  be  14.31  per  cent  of  the  true  valuation 
of  all  property  in  the  state. 

In  this  estimate  no  account  is  taken  of  taxable  property  escaping  taxation,  which  in  all  communities  is  known 

to  be  considerable.

THE  REAL  ESTATE  MORTGAGES  OP  10  YEARS. 

This  bulletin  contains  some  of  the  results  of  the  investigations  of  recorded  indebtedness  in  Kansas,  made  under 
authority  of  the  census  act.  In  Table  1  it  appears  that  a  recorded  real  estate  mortgage  debt  of  $482,699,640, 
excluding  state  and  railroad  land  contracts,  was  incurred  in  Kansas  during  the  10  years  1880-89,  a  large  portion 
of  which  has  been  paid.  Of  this  $343,26S,234,  or  71.11  per  cent  of  the  total,  incumbered  "  acres  ",  which  are 
almost  entirely  agricultural  real  estate,  and  $139,431,406,  or  28.89  per  cent,  incumbered  "  lots  ",  or  village,  city,  and 
other  real  estate.     Mortgages  not  stating  amount  of  debt  are  included  in  no  totals  unless  so  represented. 

The  total  number  of  mortgages  recorded  during  the  10  years  was  620,049,  of  which  415,622,  or  67.03  per  cent 
of  the  total,  were  on  acres  and  204,427,  or  32.97  per  cent,  were  on  lots.  These  do  not  include  the  interest  and 
commission  mortgages  which  were  given  to  loan  agents,  and  which  are  converted  into  additions  to  the  rates  of 
interest  borne  by  the  first  mortgages.     342  mortgages  do  not  state  amount  of  debt. 

The  yearly  totals  exhibit  the  fact  that  in  1880  the  amount  of  recorded  mortgages  was  $18,625,284  ;  in  1881, 
$21,343,449;  in  1882,  $22,410,819;  in  1883,  $27,697,409;  in  1884,  $39,579,854;  in  1885,  $53,203,287;  in  1886, 
$76,259,403,  and  that  the  amount  culminated  in  1SS7,  with  $97,520,069.  The  decline  was  to  $69,977,822  in  1888 
and  to  $56,082,244  in  1889. 

Mortgages  to  the  number  of  34,774  were  recorded  in  1SS0,  35,161  in  1881,  33,496  in  1882,  37,958  in  1883, 
50,091  in  1884,  71,474  in  1885,  97,195  in  1886,  and  the  highest  number  was  reached  in  1887,  when  110,500  were 
recorded.     In  1888  there  was  a  decrease  to  87,147,  and  in  1889  to  62,253. 

Of  the  amount  of  mortgages  recorded  in  the  state  during  the  10  years,  26.29  per  cent  was  in  the  counties  of 
Sedgwick,  Shawnee,  and  Wyandotte,  containing,  respectively,  the  cities  of  Wichita,  Topeka,  and  Kansas  City,  and  in 
the  counties  of  Cowley,  Dickinson,  Reno,  and  Sumner,  and  these  7  counties  have  18.31  per  cent  of  the  population 
of  the  state. 

In  1880  the  amount  of  mortgages  recorded  against  acres  in  the  state  was  $15,425,775  ;  in  1881,  $17,514,735 ; 
in  1882,  $17,634,017;  in  1883,  $21,463,123 ;  in  1884,  $31,241,851 ;  in  1885,  $42,115,311 ;  in  1886,  $56,724,122  ;  and 
the  largest  amount,  $61,277,479,  was  in  1887,  from  which  year  the  amount  decreased  to  $44,865,279  in  1888  and  to 
$35,006,542  in  1889.  The  number  of  mortgages  recorded  against  acres  shows  a  similar  movement,  except  that  the 
highest  number,  67,111,  was  in  1SS6.  The  amount  of  mortgages  against  lots  began  the  period  with  $3,199,509  in 
1880,  increased  to  $36,242,590  in  1887,  and  fell  to  $21,075,702  in  1889.  The  number  of  mortgages  recorded  against 
lots  shows  the  same  rise  and  fall. 

During  the  10  years  53,768,190  acres  were  covered  by  mortgage,  the  increase  being  from  3,602,149  in  1880  to 
S, 691,343  in  1886,  from  which  time  there  was  a  decline  to  4,683,067  acres  in  1889.  The  number  of  lots  incumbered 
during  the  10-year  period  was  530,865,  and  the  annual  tendency  was  from  17,031  in  1880  to  121,453  in  1887,  after 
which  the  number  fell  to  74,918  in  1889.  Acres  and  lots  covered  by  mortgages  not  stating  amount  of  debt  are 
included  in  these  totals. 

The  average  mortgage  during  the  10  years  was  $778.49 ;  for  acres,  $825.91 ;  for  lots,  $682.06.  The  average 
number  of  acres  to  a  mortgage  was  129.30  ;  lots,  2.60  ;  while  the  average  amount  of  incurred  indebtedness  per  acre 
created  during  the  period  of  10  years  was  $6.39  and  per  lot  $262.80. 

EXISTING  INDEBTEDNESS. 
Almost  the  entire  existing  real  estate  mortgage  debt  of  Kansas  was  created  during  the  10  years  1880-'89,  and 
the  chief  portion  of  it  during  the  latter  half  of  that  period.  The  census  day  for  this  purpose  being  understood  to 
be  January  1,  1890,  the  total  existing  debt  of  the  people  of  the  state  secured  by  real  estate  mortgage,  aside  from 
state  and  railroad  land  contracts,  is  shown  in  Table  2  to  be  $235,485,108,  of  which  the  debt  on  acres,  or  almost 
exclusively  farms,  is  $167,145,039,  or  70.98  per  cent  of  the  total,  and  the  debt  on  lots  is  $68,340,069,  or  29.02  per 
cent  of  the  total.  There  is  a  per  capita  existing  debt  of  $165.  In  the  following  7  counties  27.88  per  cent  of  all  the 
existing  debt  of  the  state  is  owed :  Cowley,  Dickinson,  Reno,  Sedgwick,  Shawnee,  Sumner,  and  Wyandotte.  These 
counties  have  18.31  per  cent  of  the  state's  population.  In  Sedgwick  county,  containing  Wichita,  where  real  estate 
sjieculation  was  very  active  a  few  years  ago,  the  debt  is  $16,583,053,  and  this  is  a  higher  amount  than  is  shown  for 
any  other  county.  Wyandotte  county,  containing  Kansas  City,  adjoining  Kansas  City,  Missouri,  is  second,  with 
K— 2  5

§12,629,936,  and  Shawnee  county,  containing  the  capital  of  the  state,  stands  third,  with  $11,982,090.  In  these 
counties,  possessing  10.32  per  cent  of  the  state's  population,  the  existing  debt  is  17.49  per  cent  of  the  total  debt  of 
the  state. 

Considerable  land  has  been  sold  on  credit  in  Kansas  by  the  state  and  by  the  railroads  that  have  received 
government  grants.  The  practice  has  been  to  allow  the  purchaser  to  take  possession  of  land  upon  the  payment  of 
a  nominal  sum  in  cash,  with  the  agreement  that  he  shall  receive  a  deed  upon  full  payment  of  the  purchase  price. 
These  contracts  are  not  on  record  in  the  county  offices,  and  as  they  are  regarded  as  equivalent  to  mortgages  it  has 
been  necessary  to  send  special  agents  to  the  state  and  railroad  officers  having  the  custody  of  the  contracts  and  of 
records  where  account  of  them  is  kept.  The  tabulation  of  the  abstracts  of  the  county  records  was  nearly  done  before 
the  abstracts  of  the  state  and  railroad  contracts  had  been  made,  and  on  account  of  the  public  desire  to  see  the 
mortgage  statistics  proper  for  Kansas  at  the  earliest  possible  moment  the  tables  published  do  not  include  the  contracts, 
with  the  exception  of  Table  5,  where  the  addition  could  be  quickly  made.  The  state  contracts  represent  an  existing 
debt  of  $3,667,735;  the  railroad  contracts,  $3,993,983 ;  total,  $7,661,718.  The  existing  contract  debt  on  acres  is 
$7,575,032  ;  on  lots,  $86,686.  Adding  these  totals,  the  grand  total  existing  real  estate  mortgage  debt  of  Kansas  is 
$243,146,826,  of  which  $174,720,071  is  on  acres  and  $68,426,755  on  lots. 

The  average  life  of  a  mortgage  in  Kansas  is  3.322  years  ;  of  a  mortgage  on  acres,  3.583  years  ;  on  lots,  2.764 
years.  In  the  eastern  half  of  the  state  the  average  life  of  a  mortgage  is  slightly  longer  than  in  the  western  half. 
The  proportion  of  partial  payments  of  the  original  amount  of  mortgages  in  force  is  much  greater  in  the  eastern 
half  than  in  the  western.  The  average  of  partial  payments  for  the  whole  state  is  5.09  per  cent ;  on  acres,  4.07  per 
cent ;  on  lots,  7.50  per  cent. 

INTEREST  RATES  AND   CLASSIFIED  AMOUNTS  OF   LOANS. 

Table  3  presents  the  interest  rates  borne  by  the  mortgages  recorded  during  the  10  years.  The  amount  subject 
to  10  per  cent  was  28.52  per  cent  of  the  total  amount  recorded  in  that  period  ;  the  amount  subject  to  8  per  cent  was 
28.04  per  cent  of  the  total ;  the  amount  subject  to  9  per  cent  was  21.13  per  cent  of  the  total,  and  the  amount  subject 
to  7  per  cent  was  9.71  per  cent  of  the  total.  Interest  rates  of  10  per  cent  and  over  were  paid  on  36.10  per  cent  of 
the  total  recorded  debt  of  the  10  years,  and  rates  above  12  per  cent  were  paid  on  0.08  of  1  per  cent  of  the  total. 
Daring  this  period  up  to  May  25,  1889,  the  law  forbade  a  higher  rate  than  12  per  cent,  but  it  has  been  regarded  as 
legally  permissible  for  loan  agents  to  take  second  and  third  mortgages  to  secure  additional  rates  of  interest  under 
the  name  of  commissions,  and  often  with  the  understanding  that  they  are  additional  rates.  Such  mortgages  bear 
no  interest  before  maturity,  and  have  been  rightfully  excluded  from  the  principal  of  the  debt  and  included  in  the 
rates  that  are  exhibited. 

It  is  shown  in  Table  4  that  the  mortgages  for  $500  and  under  $1,000  constituted  the  largest  proportion  of  the 
total  number  of  mortgages  recorded  during  the  10  years,  the  proportion  being  30.40  per  cent ;  12.37  per  cent  were 
in  the  class  of  $300  and  under  $400,  and  12.07  per  cent  in  the  class  of  $200  and  under  $300 ;  76.56  per  cent  of  the 
total  number  of  mortgages  were  under  $1,000,  and  0.28  of  1  per  cent  were  for  $10,000  and  over.  11  mortgages  were 
for  $100,000  and  over. 

SPECIAL  INVESTIGATIONS. 

In  Decatur,  Jefferson,  Lincoln,  Lyon,  and  Pawnee  counties  special  investigations  were  conducted,  and  by 
means  of  inquiries  addressed  to  debtors,  property  owners,  and  others  in  regard  to  every  mortgage  uncanceled  of 
record  the  results  presented  in  Table  5  were  obtained.     State  and  railroad  contracts  are  included  in  this  table. 

Decatur  is  an  agricultural  county  in  the  northwestern  part  of  the  state  where  crops  have  failed  for  several 
years,  and  its  population  is  8,414.  The  debt  of  this  county  is  $1,099,223,  and  the  number  of  mortgages  in  force  is 
2,289  ;  average  debt  in  force  per  mortgage,  $480.  The  debt  of  Jefferson  county,  in  the  northeastern  part  of  the 
state,  is  $1,317,029,  secured  by  1,486  mortgages,  with  an  average  debt  of  $886  per  mortgage.  Its  population  is 
16,620.  Lincoln  county  is  near  the  middle  of  the  state,  and  its  residents  are  represented  to  have  suffered  through 
several  crop  failures.  Its  debt  is  $1,692,940  ;  the  number  of  mortgages  in  force  is  2,234,  and  the  average  debt  to  a 
mortgage  is  $758.  The  mortgages  in  force  in  Lyon  countjr,  situated  iu  the  eastern  part  of  the  state,  are  securing  a 
debt  of  $3,442,133,  at  an  average  debt  of  $902  to  a  mortgage.  The  population  is  23,196.  In  the  western  part  of  the 
state,  Pawnee  county,  with  a  population  of  5,204,  owes  $1,578,666  on  1,831  mortgages,  the  average  debt  to  a 
mortgage  being  $862. 

The  purchase  of  the  mortgaged  and  other  real  estate,  improvements  and  business,  when  not  combined  with 
other  objects,  were  the  inducements  for  incurring  56.29  per  cent  of  the  original  amount  of  the  existing  mortgage 
debt  in  Decatur  county,  80.25  per  cent  in  Jefferson  county,  75  per  cent  in  Lincoln  county,  75.17  per  cent  in  Lyon 
county,  and  81.61  per  cent  in  Pawnee  county.  A  considerable  portion  of  the  debt  was  incurred  for  these  objects 
in  combination  with  other  objects,  and  in  such  case  is  inseparable  from  them.  Farm  and  family  expenses  were  a 
frequent  object  of  indebtedness,  but  they  are  more  .or  less  combined  with  the  objects  of  real  estate  purchase, 
improvements,  and  with  others.
