The text explains that four years of political and economic conditions restricted North Dakota farmers access to credit, preventing debt-driven land speculation. Land values stagnated, keeping indebtedness at about 20 to 21 dollars per acre. A good crop and prices later allowed farmers to repay and become free of debt with savings.
The piece warns that easy credit and high prices push land values to speculative levels similar to a stock market boom. Farmers buying on credit at high prices face losses when prices collapse, with little chance of profit unless credit is used to boost productivity.
