LIVESTOCK 



The numerical importance of various kinds of livestock on these 

 farms is shown in Table 12. A smaller group of farms for the same 

 area in 1915 is also included for comparison. All kinds of livestock in 

 this table are given in animal units.* There was an average of 25.4 

 animal units per farm on these farms, 63 per cent of Avhich were cows. 



* One cow, bull, steer, or horse, is counted as one in figuring animal units. 

 Two calves, heifers, or colts; seven sheep, fourteen lambs, five hogs, ten pigs 

 .and one hundred hens each count as one animal unit. (See definitions.)
