BULLETIN 411. U. S. DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE. 
landlord owned a part of the. work stock and machinery in addition 
to half of the dairy herd. 
Sales of truck crops were divided equally on all farms growing 
truck in 1913. The landlord's income from nontruck crops sold was 
larger than that of the tenant, because the tenant did not in all cases 
feed the work stock or the hogs and poultry from the undivided crops. 
The tenant had, however, a larger income from stock and stock 
products than the landlord, because the receipts from hogs and poul- 
try were not divided. The receipts from milk sold and the increase 
in the value of the dairy herd were divided equally. 
Such little stable manure as was purchased on these farms was paid 
for by the landlord. The tenant usually paid half of the cost of 
commercial fertilizer; but the fertilizer used on truck crops other 
than white 'potatoes was usually furnished by the landlord. 
Half the cost of feed and seed purchased on these farms was paid 
by the landlord, and on several farms the landlord paid all the cost 
of grass and alfalfa seed. Early white potatoes are an important 
truck crop on these farms, so that the cost of seed is considerable. 
The tenant as a rule furnished all labor, including that for the 
picking of tomatoes. One landlord furnished a man to work in the 
dairy and also a part of the dairy equipment. 
In Table X are given the averages of the different items of receipts 
and expenses on these 12 farms.
