Receipts amounted to about $12.80 per acre. On this farm wheat is the source 

 of highest income. As a rule, in this locality the importance of wheat increases 

 with the size of the farm. Receipts, however, are about equally divided be- 

 tween crops and live stock. The type is largely that of the diversified general 

 farm.
