 One indicates 73.36 percent, the other 87.65 percent. As no data were 

 available for private nonfarm grazing lands by States, it was neces- 

 sary to make this distinction. The latter figure is the more nearly 

 correct of the two. 



In an effort to give some indication of the hunting pressure in the 

 various States, columns 21 and 22 were added.
