Nate. In working oat these figures for each series, as most of them come to a decimal figure, I have taken each one to the 

 nearest whole number. 



Nate. It is the opinion of many gcod farmers, and an opinion which is shared by the writer, that the ideal number of men 

 for nrat-clacs farming on an average mixed farm of grass and arable anywhere in the midlands of England, would 

 be fonr men per every 100 acres, or at least three men and a boy. This rule may apply to any average county in 

 England where labour conditions and/or labour output of work are not exceptional. It is interesting to note, therefore, 

 the percentages of labour employed upon the 45 farms (.pre-war) from which a return of 1914 profits has been made.
