as 1 animal unit; 2 head of young stock (of the above kind) were counted as 
1 animal; 3 brood sows, or seven 200-pound hogs (other hogs depending upon 
weight), 7 sheep, or 100 chickens, were each counted as 1 animal unit. The 
number of productive animal units includes all stock, except work stock. 
Capital, receipts, expenses, farm income, etc., in case of farms operated by 
owners-additional, or by tenants, may refer to the farm, the operator's part, or 
the landlord's part. 
In Table 1, the figures shown are for the average of the 100 farms, 
without regard to how the farms were owned or how the costs and 
returns were divided. Under the other headings, such as "Farm 
tenure," the figures refer to the farm as a whole, or to the operator's 
share, or to the landlord's share of the business, accordingly as the 
column heading reads. 
ORGANIZATION AND MANAGEMENT OF 100 FARMS. 
A summary of the business for the average of the 100 farms is 
given in Table 1. Data are given for each year — 1910, and 1913 to 
1919, inclusive — with the 8-year average. Averages of the first four 
years against the last four years are also given, a decided change to 
higher price levels having taken place by 1916 for most of the prod- 
ucts sold from these farms.
