"Effective January 1, 1969, the Statistical Reporting Service plans to dis- 

 continue calculation and publication of 5-year averages that appear in this 

 report. Th._ report will contain dati for the currant and the t"o nrccudlnr, 

 years. It is believed that changes in agriculture have decreased the value 

 of the 5-year averages for making comparisons."
