The above table shows a very considerable reduction in the acreage under corn 
crops in the last ten vears, wbcat and barley being the two cereals most affected. 
The green crops show a slight increase in turnips and mangolds. Permanent 
pastures liavo steadily increased in acreage, ami show a difterence in the ten
