It will be seen that the average percentages f.ir all the .•states is, with the 

 exception of those for wheat, oats, and tobacco, less than 100, but these 

 averages must not be taken as representing the relative production for 

 the C)untry at large ; since a slight decrease in those States of great 

 productive areas would more than counterbalance a large increase in 

 several of the smaller states, and vice versa. 



* Reports not given for one or both series of years. 



-j-N'ew Hampshire's per cent, being so entirely disproportioned, is omitted in taking 

 the average for tobacco.
