INTRODUCTION 

THE  1959  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE 


History  of  the  Census. — The  1959  Census  is  the  17th  nationwide 
agricultural  census.  The  first  agricultural  census  was  taken  in 
1840,  at  the  same  time  as  the  Sixth  Decennial  Census  of  Popu- 
lation. From  1S50  to  1920,  an  agricultural  census  was  taken 
every  10  years.  With  increased  application  of  scientific  findings 
and  the  growing  use  of  mechanization  in  agriculture,  farming 
practices  were  changing  so  rapidly  that  facts  collected  at  10-year 
:  ntervals  were  no  longer  adequate.  Aware  of  the  need  for  more 
accurate  and  timely  information,  the  Congress  in  1909  (36  stat. 
10,  sec.  31,  provided  for  a  census  to  be  taken  in  1915  and  every 
10  years  thereafter  which  was  to  be  in  addition  to  the  census  of 
agriculture  to  be  taken  at  the  time  of  the  decennial  census  of 
population.  The  1915  census  was  not  taken,  however,  because 
of  the  abnormal  conditions  created  by  World  War  I.  Beginning 
with  1920,  a  national  agricultural  census  has  been  taken  every 
5  years. 

Legal  Basis  for  the  Census. — The  1959  Census  of  Agriculture 
was  authorized  by  an  Act  of  Congress,  as  were  all  prior  censuses 
of  agriculture.  "Title  13,  United  States  Code-Census,"  codified  in 
August  1954,  and  amended  in  August  1957  and  September  1960, 
is  now  the  legal  basis  for  censuses  of  agriculture  and  other  cen- 
suses, and  surveys  conducted  by  the  Bureau  of  the  Census.  Sec- 
tion 142,  paragraph  (a),  of  Title  13  makes  provision  for  the 
Census  of  Agriculture.     It  reads  as  follows : 

"The  Secretary  shall,  beginning  in  the  month  of  October 
1959,  and  in  the  same  month  of  every  fifth  year  thereafter,  take 
a  census  of  agriculture,  provided  that  the  censuses  directed  to 
be  taken  in  October  1959  and  each  tenth  year  thereafter,  may, 
when  and  where  deemed  advisable  by  the  Secretary,  be  taken 
instead  in  conjunction  with  the  censuses  provided  in  section 
141  of  this  title."  (Section  141  relates  to  the  decennial  cen- 
suses of  population,  unemployment,  and  housing  to  be  taken 
as  of  the  first  day  of  April  of  each  decennial  year.)  Under 
authority  granted  by  Section  4  of  Title  13,  the  Secretary  of 
Commerce  delegated  "the  functions  and  duties  imposed  upon 
him  by  this  title"  to  the  Director  of  the  Bureau  of  the  Census. 

Pretest  of  the  1959  Census. — A  "pretest"  of  the  field  procedures 
of  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture  was  conducted  in  17  counties 
of  the  United  States  during  the  fall  of  1958.  The  purpose  of  the 
pretest  was  to  provide  the  Bureau  with  a  measure  of  the  effective- 
ness of  the  questions  and  procedures  planned  for  the  1959 
nationwide  census.  Three  versions  of  the  agriculture  question- 
naire— the  first  one  for  Northern  States,  the  second  for  Southern 
States,  and  the  third  for  Western  States — were  used  in  the  pre- 
test Each  version  contained  questions  appropriate  to  the  type 
of  agriculture  in  the  part  of  the  country  where  it  was  used.  All 
major  aspects  of  field  forms  and  procedures,  from  the  hiring  and 
training  of  crew  leaders  and  enumerators  to  actual  interviews 
with  farm  operators,  were  given  a  "trial  run"  in  each  of  the  17 
counties.  Preliminary  versions  of  reporting  forms,  maps,  pay- 
roll records,  training  guides,  and  instruction  manuals  were  sub- 
jected to  actual  use  under  conditions  simulating  those  expected 
in  the  nationwide  enumeration  conducted  in  the  fall  of  1959. 

In  making  final  preparations  for  the  1959  census,  the  staff  of 
the  Bureau  drew  heavily  on  the  results  of  the  pretest,  as  well  as 
on  experience  gained  from  previous  censuses. 

Training  Program  for  Personnel  for  Enumeration. — Every  per- 
son hired  to  do  work  in  connection  with  the  1959  Census  of  Agri- 
culture  received  specialized   training  for   his   job.     Staff   mem- 

563128—60 


bers  of  the  Washington  and  Regional  Offices  of  the  Bureau  and 
of  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture  trained  approximately  110 
agriculture  field  assistants  and  2,100  crew  leaders.  The  crew 
leaders,  in  turn,  trained  and  supervised  approximately  30,000 
enumerators.  All  training  was  presented  according  to  procedures 
contained  in  various  guides  and  manuals  prepared  by  the  Bureau. 
The  training  program  included  filmstrips,  map-reading,  practice 
interviewing,  and  practice  filling  of  questionnaires  and  other 
census  forms.  In  most  instances,  training  sessions  were  held 
near  the  areas  in  which  employees  worked  and  immediately  prior 
to  the  beginning  of  their  assignments. 

Enumeration  Period. — The  actual  enumeration  in  the  conter- 
minous United  States  (see  page  XIV)  started  at  dates  varying 
from  October  7  to  November  18,  1959.  In  general,  starting  dates 
were  based  upon  regional  variations  in  harvesting  seasons  and 
on  weather  conditions.  The  primary  aim  was  to  have  the 
enumeration  late  enough  to  follow  the  harvesting  of  the  bulk 
of  important  crops  and  early  enough  to  precede  the  advent  of 
winter  weather  with  the  attending  unfavorable  travel  conditions. 
The  bulk  of  the  enumeration  work  was  completed  within  three 
to  four  weeks  after  the  starting  date.  In  Hawaii,  the  enumera- 
tion was  made  during  the  months  of  December  1959  and  January 
1960 ;  and  in  Alaska,  during  April  1960. 

Enumeration  starting  dates  for  the  censuses  of  1959  and  1954 
are  given  in  State  table  11,  together  with  figures  showing  the 
percentage  of  farms  enumerated  in  the  State  during  weekly  pe- 
riods. The  average  enumeration  date  for  the  1959  census  for 
each  county  is  given  in  county  table  6. 

Data  for  inventory  items — land  in  farms,  machinery  and  equip- 
ment livestock,  and  poultry— relate  to  the  situation  at  the  actual 
time  of  enumeration  of  each  individual  farm.  Data  for  acres, 
production,  and  sales  of  crops  relate  generally  to  the  crops  har- 
vested during  the  crop  year  1959,  regardless  of  whether  and  when 
they  were  sold  while  data  for  sales  of  livestock  and  livestock 
products  relate  to  the  calendar  year  1959.  Since  the  enumera- 
tion was  made  before  the  end  of  1959,  special  emphasis  was 
placed  upon  the  inclusion  of  estimates  for  crops  yet  to  be  sold 
and  for  livestock  and  livestock  products  expected  to  be  sold  in 
the  period  from  the  time  of  enumeration  to  the  end  of  the  cal- 
endar year.  Instructions  on  the  questionnaire  and  the  wording 
of  questions  were  designed  to  assure  that  full  crop-year  or 
calendar-year  data  would  be  reported.  For  example,  "How  much 
of  this  year's  crop  was  or  will  be  sold?" 

ENUMERATION  FORMS  AND  PROCEDURES 

Authorization. — Section  5  of  Title  13  of  the  United  States  Code 
authorizes  the  preparation  of  forms  and  questionnaires  used  in 
the  census.    It  reads  as  follows : 

"The  Secretary  shall  prepare  schedules,  and  shall  determine 
the  inquiries,  and  the  number,  form,  and  subdivisions  thereof, 
for  the  statistics,  surveys,  and  censuses  provided  for  in  this 
title." 

The  Agriculture  Questionnaire. — The  questionnaire  for  the  1959 
Census  of  Agriculture  was  prepared  by  the  staff  of  the  Bureau. 
Selection  of  the  inquiries  was  based  on  the  results  of  the  1958 
pretest  and  experience  gained  in  earlier  censuses.  Careful  con- 
sideration was  given  to  such  factors  as  the  current  availability 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


of  data  from  other  sources,  the  possibility  of  obtaining  data  by 
methods  other  than  a  census,  the  adequacy  of  the  data  that  might 
be  obtained,  and  the  need  for  and  usefulness  of  the  data.  Two 
committees  gave  advice  and  counsel  to  the  Bureau.  One  of  these, 
a  Special  Advisory  Committee,  was  composed  of  members  desig- 
nated by  the  organizations  they  represented,  following  an  invita- 
tion from  the  Director  of  the  Bureau  of  the  Census  to  name  a 
representative  to  serve  in  an  advisory  capacity.  The  Special 
Advisory  Committee  for  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture  was 
made  up  of  one  representative  from  each  of  the  following :  Agri- 
cultural Publishers  Association,  American  Association  of  Land- 
Grant  Colleges  and  State  Universities,  American  Farm  Bureau 
Federation,  American  Farm  Economic  Association,  American 
Statistical  Association,  Farm  Equipment  Institute,  National  As- 
sociation of  Commissioners,  Secretaries,  and  Directors  of  Agri- 
culture, National  Council  of  Farmer  Cooperatives,  National 
Farmers'  Union,  National  Grange,  Rural  Sociological  Society, 
and  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture.  A  representative  of 
the  Bureau  of  the  Budget  was  in  attendance  at  all  meetings  of 
the  Advisory  Committee. 

Because  of  the  special  interest  of  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agri- 
culture in  censuses  of  agriculture,  the  Director  of  the  Bureau 
of  the  Census  sought  the  continuous  cooperation  of  that  organiza- 
tion in  developing  plans,  questionnaires,  and  procedures  for  the 
1959  Census  of  Agriculture.  Working  Groups  were  established 
in  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture  to  make  recommendations 
for  the  following  general  subjects : 

Tenure,  Land  Values,  and  Mortgage  Debt 

Land  Use  and  Conservation  and  Production  Practices 

Field  Crops 

Fruits  and  Vegetables 

Forest  Products 

Livestock,  Poultry,  and  Dairy 

Income  and  Expenditure  (including  Contractual  Operations) 

Farm  Labor 

Equipment  and  Facilities  (including  Structures) 

Each  Working  Group  had  the  responsibility  for  ascertaining 
the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture's  need  for  data  in  the  field 
covered  by  its  "terms  of  reference"  and  for  presenting  recom- 
mendations to  a  small  Joint  Committee  comprising  representa- 
tives of  both  the  Bureau  of  the  Census  and  the  U.S.  Department 
of  Agriculture.  The  Joint  Committee  received  written  recom- 
mendations from  each  Working  Group.  The  Chairman  of  each 
Group  appeared  before  the  Joint  Committee  as  did  any  member 
of  the  Working  Group  who  was  needed  to  present  supplemental 
information  of  a  specialized  nature. 

Prior  to  the  formulation  of  the  questionnaire,  State  Agricul- 
tural Colleges  and  other  major  users  of  census  data  were  invited 
to  suggest  inquiries  for  the  enumeration.  Each  member  of  the 
Special  Advisory  Committee  had  the  opportunity  and  the  respon- 
sibility for  channeling  in  suggestions  from  the  organization  he 
represented.  The  number  of  inquiries  submitted  from  all  sources 
greatly  exceeded  the  number  that  could  be  included  in  the  census, 
from  the  point  of  view  of  cost,  of  the  respondent's  time  and 
patience,  and  of  practical  value  to  the  majority  of  users  of  data. 

The  final  selection  included  316  questions,  some  of  which  con- 
sisted of  several  parts,  for  the  48  States  comprising  the  con- 
terminous United  States.  Although  each  of  the  316  questions 
was  asked  in  one  or  more  of  the  48  States,  considerably  less  than 
this  total  was  asked  in  any  one  State  because  of  the  use  of  "State" 
questionnaires.  Moreover,  about  50  questions  out  of  the  total 
were  asked  of  approximately  one-fifth  of  all  farm  operators  in 
the  State.  The  number  of  questions  ranged  from  159  on  the 
questionnaire  for  Maine  to  194  on  the  questionnaire  for  Cali- 
fornia. In  all,  38  versions  of  the  questionnaire — one  for  each 
State  or  combination  of  adjoining  States  and  two  for  Texas- 


were  used  for  the  1959  census  in  the  conterminous  United  States 
as  compared  with  21  versions  in  1954  and  41  in  1950.  A  separate 
version  was  used  in  Alaska  and  another  in  Hawaii. 

Differences  in  the  questionnaires  were  designed  to  account 
for  regional  and  local  differences  in  agriculture.  Most,  but  not 
all,  of  the  differences  related  to  crops.  The  use  of  State  ques- 
tionnaires made  possible  the  inclusion  of  separate  inquiries  for 
all  important  crops  grown  within  a  State  and,  at  the  same 
time,  a  reduction  in  the  total  number  of  inquiries  for  a  State. 
Questions  that  did  not  apply,  to  any  considerable  degree,  to  a 
particular  State  were  omitted  from  the  questionnaire  used  in 
that  State.  For  example,  separate  questions  about  citrus  fruits 
were  omitted  from  all  questionnaires  except  for  the  few  States 
where  citrus  fruits  are  grown.  An  added  advantage  of  State 
questionnaires  was  that  production  and  sales  data  could  be  asked 
in  the  unit  of  measure  most  commonly  used  by  the  farmers  in 
each  State.  Regional  variation  in  the  number  and  type  of  ques- 
tions is  an  important  provision  of  the  census  for  obtaining  com- 
plete coverage  of  agricultural  operations. 

About  2  weeks  before  the  start  of  the  enumeration,  agricul- 
ture questionnaires  were  mailed  to  most  households  in  rural 
areas.  A  letter  was  attached  to  each  questionnaire  asking  the 
farm  operator  to  fill  the  questionnaire  and  to  give  it  to  the  enu- 
merator when  he  called.  The  purpose  of  this  procedure  was 
to  save  time  and  money  in  taking  the  census  and  to  improve  the 
quality  of  the  information  given  by  farm  operators.  By  having 
the  questionnaire  ahead  of  time,  the  farmer  could  determine  what 
information  would  be  required  and  could  check  his  records  in 
advance  of  the  enumerator's  visit.  It  was,  however,  the  respon- 
sibility of  the  enumerator  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire 
for  each  place  which  qualified.  If  the  questionnaire  had  been  filled 
out  by  the  farm  operator,  the  enumerator  was  instructed  to 
examine  the  questionnaire  for  completeness  and  accuracy  and, 
if  need  be,  to  give  the  farmer  such  help  as  might  be  necessary. 

Agricultural  Operations. — The  training  of  enumerators  stressed 
the  concept  that  a  census  of  agriculture  is  a  census  of  agricultural 
operations  rather  than  a  census  of  farms.  This  concept  was  in- 
tended to  assure  a  complete  agricultural  census  free  of  any  per- 
sonal judgment  by  enumerators  as  to  what  constitutes  a  farm.  In 
accordance  with  clearly  defined  procedures,  an  enumerator  was 
required  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire  for  each  person 
who  had  charge  of  one  or  more  agricultural  operations,  whether 
or  not  he  considered  himself  to  be  a  farm  operator.  For  enu- 
meration purposes,  it  was  considered  that  there  were  agricul- 
tural operations  on  a  place  if,  at  any  time  in  1959 — 

a.  Any  livestock  (hogs,  cattle,  sheep,  goats,  horses,  or  mules) 
were  kept  on  the  place. 

b.  A  combined  total  of  20  or  more  chickens,  turkeys,  and  ducks 
were  kept  on  the  place. 

c.  Any  grain,  hay,  tobacco,  or  other  field  crops  were  grown  on 
the  place. 

d.  A  combined  total  of  20  or  more  fruit  trees,  grapevines,  and 
nut  trees  were  on  the  place. 

e.  Any  vegetables,  berries,  or  nursery  or  greenhouse  products 
were  grown  on  the  place  for  sale. 

As  a  result  of  the  requirement  that  all  places  having  agri- 
cultural operations  be  enumerated,  more  questionnaires  were 
obtained  than  are  included  in  the  tabulations  for  farms.  During 
the  office  processing  operations  that  followed  the  completion  of 
enumeration,  criteria  were  applied  to  the  questionnaires  to  sort 
out  for  tabulation  those  that  represented  farms  according  to 
the  census  definition  of  a  farm   (see  page  XIV). 

Enumeration  Assignments  and  Enumeration  Districts. — To  as- 
sure a  complete  enumeration  within  the  time  allotted,  the  United 
States  (excluding  Alaska  and  Hawaii)  was  divided  into  29,374 
Enumeration   Assignments,   or    EA's.     Each    EA   comprised   an

area  that  one  enumerator  could  reasonably  be  expected  to  canvass 
within  a  3-  to  4-week  period,  as  indicated  by  performance  rec- 
ords from  the  1054  census. 

Each  EA  was  made  up  of  one  or  more  Enumeration  Dis- 
tricts, or  "ED's,"  as  the  geographic  unit  for  enumeration.  Prior 
to  the  enumeration,  the  ED's  were  classified  into  three  groups 
on  the  basis  of  the  density  of  dwellings  in  relation  to  the  number 
of  farms,  as  indicated  by  the  1954  Census  of  Agriculture,  the 
1950  Census  of  Population  and  Housing,  current  population  esti- 
mates, and  highway  maps  showing  culture  which  were  basic 
to  establishing  the  boundaries  of  each  assignment.  Through  the 
use  of  different  canvassing  procedures  for  each  group  of  ED's, 
the  Bureau  was  able  to  reduce  the  cost  of  enumeration  without 
running  any  material  risk  of  missing  any  farms  or  other  places 
with  agricultural  operations.  The  ED  groupings  and  canvassing 
procedures  are  described  below. 

Group  I  Enumeration  Districts. — In  general,  ED's  with  no 
well-defined  cluster  of  dwellings  were  considered  to  be  open- 
country  areas  and  comprise  Group  I.  For  each  ED  of  Group 
I,  in  his  Enumeration  Assignment,  the  enumerator  was  required 
to  list  in  his  Record  Book  the  name  of  every  head  of  household 
living  in  the  ED  and  also  the  name  of  every  person  not  living 
in  the  ED  who  had  agricultural  operations  there.  There  were 
approximately  20,751  ED's  in  Group  I  for  the  1959  Census. 

Group  II  Enumeration  Districts. — Rural  ED's  in  which  the 
number  of  dwellings  was  large  in  relation  to  the  number  of 
farms  were  considered  to  be  in  Group  II.  For  each  ED,  in 
Group  II,  the  enumerator  was  required  to  list  the  head  of  the 
household  for  all  dwellings  in  the  ED  except  for  those  on  less 
than  one  acre  of  ground  in  built-up  residential  areas  of  50  or 
more  dwellings.  He  was  also  required  to  determine,  by  obser- 
vation or  local  inquiry,  whether  there  were  any  farms  or  other 
places  with  agricultural  operations  in  the  built-up  areas  and, 
if  so,  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire.  There  were 
approximately  7,979  ED's  in  Group  II. 

Group  III  Enumeration  Districts. — Most  incorporated  places 
and  unincorporated  villages  having  approximately  150  or  more 
dwellings  were  designated  as  separate  ED's  and  are  classified 
as  Group  III.  Also,  most  ED's  in  counties  around  large  metro- 
politan areas  were  designated  as  Group  III  Ed's.  Prior  to 
the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture,  places  enumerated  in  these 
areas  during  the  1954  Census  of  Agriculture  were  listed  in 
the  Enumerator's  Record  Book.  The  enumerator  was  required 
to  visit  and  enumerate  or  otherwise  account  for  each  place  listed 
in  his  Record  Book.  In  addition,  he  was  instructed  to  ask  at 
each  of  these  places  if  there  were  any  farms  or  other  places  with 
agricultural  operations  in  the  Enumeration  District,  and,  if  so, 
to  add  them  to  his  list  and  enumerate  them.  There  were  ap- 
proximately 15,836  Group  III  ED's  in  1959.  According  to  the 
1954  Census,  these  ED's  contained  380,575  farms. 

A  few  enumeration  districts  that  comprised  incorporated 
places  or  that  were  within  an  incorporated  city  were  classified 
as  Group  I  or  Group  II  because  they  had  a  large  number  of  farms. 
A  few  others,  comprising  extensive  rural  districts  requiring  con- 
siderable travel,  were  classified  as  Group  III  because  they  had 
only  a  small  number  of  farms. 

Enumerator's  Record  Book. — Each  enumerator  received  one  or 
more  Record  Books  containing  a  listing  form  for  use  during 
canvassing.  (See  appendix  for  facsimile  of  one  page  of  list- 
ing form  included  in  Enumerator's  Record  Book.)  The  lines 
on  the  listing  form  were  numbered  in  consecutive  order.  Ex- 
cept as  otherwise  prescribed  for  Group  II  and  Group  III  ED's, 
the  enumerator  listed  in  his  Record  Book  the  name  of  each  head 
of  household  living  in  his  assigned  area  and  also  the  name 
of  each  person  not  living  in  his  area  who  had  agricultural  opera- 
tions there.  As  he  made  his  listing,  he  also  asked  the  questions 
about  agricultural  operations  that  were  printed  on  the  listing 
form.  Answers  to  these  questions  determined,  for  the  enumerator, 
whether  or  not  an  agriculture  questionnaire  was  required  for  the 
person  listed  and,  if  so,  ■whether  he  or  some  other  enumerator 
was  responsible  for  getting  it.  Thus,  the  Record  Book  served 
as  an  important  aid  to  the  enumerator  in  securing  complete  cov- 
erage of  all  agricultural  operations  within  his  area.    At  the  same 


time,  it  helped  to  prevent  enumeration  of  the  same  place  by  two 
or  more  enumerators. 

Enumeration  Maps. — As  a  second  aid  to  getting  complete  cover- 
age, each  enumerator  received  a  map  or,  in  a  few  exceptional 
cases,  a  brief  written  description  of  the  area  assigned  to  him 
for  enumeration.  He  was  required  to  plan  and  follow  an  orderly 
route  of  enumeration  within  the  boundaries  of  his  assigned  area 
in  accordance  with  established  canvassing  procedures.  As  the 
enumerator  listed  a  place  in  his  Record  Book,  he  indicated  its 
location  by  copying  onto  his  map  the  number  of  the  line  on  which 
he  listed  it.  This  numbering  system  indicated  the  enumerator's 
route  of  travel,  and  helped  both  the  enumerator  and  his  crew 
leader  to  determine  the  extent  of  coverage  of  the  enumerator's 
assignment  at  any  given  time. 

Lists  of  Special  and  Large  Farms. — Prior  to  the  enumeration,  a 
card  list  of  "special  and  large  farms"  was  prepared  on  the  basis 
of  records  obtained  from  the  1954  census  and  from  Federal  and 
State  agricultural  agencies.  In  general,  "special  and  large  farms" 
fell  into  one  of  three  categories:  (1)  farms  having  unusually 
large  acreages,  livestock  inventories,  or  annual  sales  as  indi- 
cated by  available  records;  (2)  farms  known  to  be  specializing 
in  such  operations  as  broiler  production,  turkey  growing,  feed 
lots,  nursery  or  greenhouse  production,  cranberry  bogs,  citrus 
groves,  etc.;  (3)  farms  that  might  easily  be  overlooked  because 
they  had  absentee  operators  or  were  not  locally  thought  of  as 
farms,  such  as  institutions,  Indian  reservations,  grazing  associa- 
tions, etc. 

Enumerators  were  given  the  cards  for  the  special  and  large 
farms  within  their  assignment  areas  to  use  as  aids  to  obtaining 
complete  coverage.  Generally,  the  cards  provided  insurance 
against  the  omission  of  farming  units  that  could  have  a  signifi- 
cant effect  on  the  totals  for  a  given  county  or  State.  The  enu- 
merator was  instructed  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire 
for  each  special  or  large  farm  in  his  area  or  to  write  an  explana- 
tion on  the  card  as  to  why  an  agriculture  questionnaire  was  not 
required  on  the  basis  of  1959  operations.  The  crew  leader  had 
a  duplicate  set  of  cards  for  use  in  checking  enumeration  coverage. 

Landlord-Tenant  Questionnaire. — As  in  several  previous  cen- 
suses, a  special  landlord-tenant  questionnaire  was  used  in  some 
parts  of  the  South  as  a  supplement  to  the  agriculture  question- 
naire. Its  purpose  was  to  help  the  enumerator  get  complete 
and  accurate  coverage  of  individually  operated  tracts  of  land 
that  were  actually  part  of  one  operating  unit  under  the  control 
of  one  landlord.  To  accomplish  this  purpose,  the  enumerator  was 
required  to  fill  a  landlord-tenant  questionnaire  for  each  landlord 
who  had  any  land  worked  on  shares.  The  entries  made  in  this 
questionnaire  included  the  name  of  each  sharecropper,  tenant,  or 
renter ;  the  amount  of  land  assigned  to  each ;  and  the  acreage  and 
quantity  of  crops  harvested  on  shares.  By  checking  these  entries 
against  the  agriculture  questionnaires  obtained  for  the  individual 
operators,  the  enumerator  and  the  Central  Office  could  verify  that 
each  part  of  the  operating  unit  controlled  by  the  landlord  was 
enumerated  and  that  it  was  enumerated  only  once.  The  landlord- 
tenant  questionnaire  was  used  in  386  counties  in  the  1959  census 
as  compared  with  approximately  900  counties  in  1954. 

Township  Sketch  Map. — In  some  areas  of  the  Great  Plains,  a 
considerable  portion  of  land  is  farmed  by  nonresident  operators— 
that  is,  by  persons  who  do  not  live  on  the  land  they  operate  or 
who  live  on  it  only  during  part  of  the  year.  Enumerators  in  these 
areas  used  a  special  mapping  form,  the  Township  Sketch,  in 
addition  to  their  enumeration  maps  as  an  aid  to  obtaining  com- 
plete coverage.  Each  township  included  on  the  sketch  was 
identified  by  township  and  range  number  and  was  divided  into 
144  small  squares.  In  a  standard  section  of  640  acres,  each 
square  represented  a  quarter  section  of  land,  or  160  acres.  As 
the  enumerator  canvassed  his  assignment  area,  he  indicated  the 
acreage  and  location  of  each  farm,  ranch,  and  tract  of  nonfarm

land  by  drawing  its  boundaries  on  the  sketch.  He  also  used  a 
simple  numbering  system  as  a  cross  reference  between  the  agri- 
cultural land  identified  on  the  sketch  and  the  questionnaire  on 
which  it  was  reported.  The  Township  Sketch  was  used  in  all 
counties  of  North  Dakota  and  South  Dakota  and  in  selected 
counties  of  Colorado,  Kansas,  Minnesota,  Montana,  Nebraska, 
New  Mexico,  Oklahoma,  and  Wyoming. 

Field  Review  of  Enumerator's  Work. — In  the  1959  census, 
greater  emphasis  was  placed  on  a  detailed  review  of  enumerators' 
work  during  enumeration  than  had  been  the  case  in  previous 
censuses.  The  objective  was  to  detect  and  correct  enumeration 
errors  as  early  as  possible  in  order  to  achieve  and  maintain  a 
high  quality  of  individual  performance.  Starting  on  .the  first  day 
of  enumeration  and  continuing  throughout  the  enumeration 
period,  each  crew  leader  was  instructed  to  make  regular  and 
frequent  visits  to  his  enumerators.  At  each  visit,  he  was  to 
follow  a  clearly  defined  procedure  for  observing  the  enumerator's 
conduct  of  interviews  and  for  checking  his  listings,  maps,  ques- 
tionnaires, and  other  forms  for  accuracy  and  completeness. 

As  an  aid  to  checking  coverage  and  enumerator  efficiency,  the 
crew  leader  was  given  a  list  containing  estimates,  based  on  the 
1954  census,  of  the  number  of  questionnaires  required  in  each 
enumeration  assignment  area  within  his  district,  and  of  the 
mileage  and  time  required  to  obtain  those  questionnaires. 

SAMPLING 

Use  of  Sampling.— In  the  1959  census,  as  in  several  previous 
censuses,  sampling  was  used  in  two  ways :  for  enumeration  and 
for  tabulation.  Sampling  in  enumeration  consisted  of  the  col- 
lection of  information  about  the  items  included  in  sections  IX 
through  XV  of  the  questionnaire  for  only  a  sample  of  farms. 
The  "sample"  items  relate  to  sales  of  dairy  products  and  sales  of 
livestock,  use  of  fertilizer  and  lime,  farm  expenditures,  land-use 
practices,  farm  labor,  equipment  and  facilities,  rental  agreements, 
farm  values,  and  farm  mortgage  debt.  The  same  sample  of  farms 
was  used  for  tabulations  by  type  of  farm  and  by  economic  class 
of  farm  and  for  many  of  those  by  size  of  farm  and  by  color  and 
tenure  of  operator. 

Description  of  the  Sample.— The  sample  used  for  the  1959  Census 
of  Agriculture  consisted  of  all  farms  with  a  total  area  of  1,000 
or  more  acres  or  with  estimated  sales  of  $100,000  or  more  in  1959, 
and  approximately  20  percent  of  all  other  farms.  Farms  with 
1,000  or  more  acres  were  universally  included  in  the  sample 
during  enumeration.  As  the  enumerator  filled  the  questionnaire, 
he  determined  the  number  of  "acres  in  this  place"  (see  question  7 
of  the  agriculture  questionnaire).  If  the  acreage  amounted  to 
1,000  or  more  he  was  required  to  fill  sections  IX  through  XV  of 
the  questionnaire.  Farms  with  less  than  1,000  acres,  with  esti- 
mated sales  of  $100,000  or  more,  were  included  in  the  sample 
during  the  office  processing.  For  these  farms  the  information  for 
sections  IX  through  XV  was  obtained  by  mail. 

The  selection  of  farms  of  less  than  1,000  acres  for  inclusion  In 
the  sample  was  made  during  enumeration,  according  to  the  fol- 
lowing procedure:  As  the  enumerator  determined  that  he  was 
required  to  obtain  a  questionnaire,  he  assigned  a  number  to  it, 
whether  or  not  he  was  able  to  obtain  the  questionnaire  on  his 
first  visit.  He  assigned  numbers  in  consecutive  order,  beginning 
with  "1"  for  the  first  questionnaire  required  in  each  enumera- 
tion district  within  his  area.  He  was  instructed  to  fill  sections 
IX  through  XV  on  all  questionnaires  for  which  the  assigned 
number  ended  in  "2"  or  "7"  (i.e.  2,  7,  12,  17,  22,  etc.). 

Adjustment  of  the  Sample. — An  adjustment  in  the  part  of  the 
sample  that  was  comprised  of  farms  of  less  than  1,000  acres  and 
with  estimated  sales  of  less  than  $100,000  was  made  by  a  process 
essentially  equivalent  to  stratifying  the  farms  in  the  sample  by 


size  of  farm.  The  purpose  of  this  adjustment  was  to  Improve 
the  reliability  of  the  estimates  based  on  the  sample  and  to  reduce 
the  effects  of  possible  biases  introduced  by  enumerators  who  de- 
viated from  the  prescribed  procedure  for  selecting  the  sample 
farms.  The  adjustment  procedure  was  carried  out  for  "blocks" 
of  counties,  each  consisting  of  from  one  to  ten  counties  in  a  State. 
To  adjust  the  sample,  separate  counts  were  made  for  each  county, 
and  for  the  block  of  counties  of  all  farms  and  of  farms  in  the 
sample  for  each  of  10  size-of-farm  groups  based  on  the  "acres 
in  this  place"  (question  7).  The  10  size-of-farm  groups  were  as 
follows :  under  10  acres,  10  to  49  acres,  50  to  69  acres,  70  to  99 
acres,  100  to  139  acres,  140  to  179  acres,  180  to  219  acres,  220 
to  259  acres,  260  to  499  acres,  and  500  to  999  acres.  Farms  of  less 
than  1,000  acres,  but  with  value  of  sales  of  $100,000  or  more, 
were  excluded  from  these  counts.  For  each  size-of-farm  group, 
the  number  of  farms  in  the  sample  for  the  block  of  counties  was 
adjusted  to  make  it  equal  or  approximately  equal  to  the  total 
number  of  farms  divided  by  five.  This  was  accomplished  for 
each  group  by  the  elimination  or  duplication  on  a  random  basis, 
of  farms  in  those  counties  where  the  difference  between  the 
actual  proportion  in  the  sample  and  the  expected  20  percent  was 
in  the  same  direction  as  the  difference  for  the  block  of  counties. 

Estimation  of  Totals  for  the  Sample. — For  the  items  included 
in  the  sample  part  of  the  questionnaire  (sections  IX  through 
XV),  estimated  totals  for  all  farms  were  derived  from  the  tabu- 
lated totals  for  the  farms  in  the  adjusted  sample.  First,  Item-by- 
item  totals,  as  tabulated  for  that  part  of  the  sample  comprising 
farms  of  less  than  1,000  acres  and  with  estimated  sales  of  less 
than  $100,000,  were  multiplied  by  5.  These  estimated  item-by- 
item  totals  were  then  added  to  the  corresponding  item  totals,  as 
tabulated,  for  all  farms  of  1,000  acres  and  over  and  farms  with 
estimated  sales  of  $100,000  and  over.  The  resulting  values 
represent  the  estimated  totals  for  all  farms. 

Presentation  of  Sample  Data. — In  tables  where  a  small  amount 
of  data  based  on  the  sample  farms  is  presented  together  with 
data  for  all  farms,  the  data  based  on  the  sample  are  printed  in 
italics.  Other  tables  contain  headnotes  explaining  that  most 
of  the  data  are  estimates  based  on  reports  for  only  a  sample 
of  farms. 

Reliability  of  Estimates.— The  estimated  totals  for  all  farms  of 
the  items  enumerated  for  only  the  sample  farms  are  subject 
to  sampling  errors.  The  estimated  totals  obtained  by  making 
tabulations  for  only  the  farms  included  In  the  sample  are  also 
subject  to  sampling  errors.  State  tables  23  and  24  contain  ap- 
proximate measures  of  the  sampling  reliability  of  the  estimates 
for  numbers  of  farms  reporting  and  for  item  totals.  While  these 
measures  indicate  the  general  level  of  sampling  reliability  of  the 
estimates,  they  do  not  completely  reflect  errors  arising  from 
sources  other  than  sampling ;  for  example,  errors  in  the  original 
data  reported  by  farmers.  Errors  arising  from  sources  other  than 
sampling  may,  in  some  Instances,  be  relatively  more  Important 
than  sampling  variation,  especially  for  county  totals. 

The  general  level  of  sampling  reliability  of  estimated  totals 
may  be  determined  from  the  data  in  State  tables  23  and  24.  State 
table  24  contains  a  list  of  items,  together  with  a  figure  for  each 
item  indicating  one  of  the  four  levels  of  sampling  reliability  that 
are  presented  In  State  table  23.  For  each  Item  the  sampling 
error  according  to  the  number  of  farms  reporting  may  be  de- 
termined from  State  table  23,  in  the  column  for  the  level  of 
sampling  reliability  designated  In  State  table  24.  To  determine 
the  sampling  reliability  for  any  Item,  reference  must  be  made  to 
State  table  24  to  find  out  which  of  the  four  levels  of  sampling 
reliability  given  in  State  table  23  should  be  used,  and  also  the 
appropriate  county  or  State  table  to  obtain  the  number  of  farms 
reporting  the  Item. 


INTRODUCTION 


XIII 


As  explained  in  State  table  23,  the  level  of  sampling  reliability 
designated  as  level  1  should  always  be  used  to  determine  the 
sampling  reliability  of  estimated  numbers  of  farms  or  of  farms 
reporting. 

State  table  23  shows  percentage  limits  such  that  chances  are 
about  68  out  of  100  that  the  difference  between  an  estimate  based 
on  the  sample  and  the  figure  that  would  have  been  obtained  from 
a  tabulation  of  all  farms  would  be  no  more  than  the  percentage 
specified  for  the  estimated  number  of  farms  reporting  that  item. 
The  chances  are  about  99  out  of  100  that  the  difference  would  be 
less  than  2%  times  the  percentage  specified. 

As  indicated  by  the  percentages  in  State  table  23,  the  smaller 
the  number  of  farms  reporting  a  given  item,  the  larger  the  relative 
sampling  error  in  the  estimated  total  for  that  item.  Even  so, 
considerable  detail  is  presented  for  each  item,  by  several  classifi- 
cations of  farms,  in  order  to  permit  the  appraisal  of  estimates 
for  various  combinations  of  items  not  shown  in  this  report.  Per- 
centages and  averages  that  may  be  derived  from  the  tables  will 
generally  have  greater  relative  reliability  than  the  corresponding 
estimated  totals.  However,  significant  patterns  of  relationships 
may  be  observed  in  the  estimated  totals  even  though  the  indi- 
vidual data  are  subject  to  relatively  large  sampling  errors. 

The  data  representing  estimates  based  on  a  sample  of  farms 
for  the  1954  census  were  obtained  in  essentially  the  same  way  as 
in  1959.  Therefore,  State  tables  23  and  24  may  also  be  used  to 
determine  the  sampling  errors  for  the  1954  data. 

Differences  in  Data  Resulting  From  Differences  in  Tabulating 
Procedures. — Many  of  the  figures  in  the  detailed  State  tables  rep- 
resent estimates  obtained  by  tabulating  only  the  sample  farms. 
The  totals  for  these  detailed  distributions  will  generally  differ 
somewhat  from  totals  presented  in  other  tables  obtained  from 
different  distributions  which  were  tabulated  on  a  100  percent 
basis.  Moreover,  although  most  of  the  figures  presented  by  coun- 
ties were  obtained  from  tabulations  of  all  farms,  the  data  in 
county  table  4  for  commercial  farms,  and  all  of  the  data  in  the 
county  tables  on  dairy  products  and  livestock  sold,  fertilizer  and 
lime,  farm  expenditures,  land-use  practices,  farm  labor,  facilities 
and  equipment,  and  value  of  land  and  buildings  were  estimated 
for  each  county  on  the  basis  of  data  tabulated  for  the  farms  in 
the  sample.  The  State  totals  in  the  county  tables  for  these  items, 
though  based  also  on  the  sample,  were  obtained  in  a  different 
series  of  tabulating  runs,  and  so  may  differ  slightly  from  totals 
presented  in  some  State  tables.  For  reasons  of  economy  the 
sample  distributions  were  not  adjusted  to  the  100  percent  totals 
even  when  such  totals  were  available,  nor  were  slight  discrepan- 
cies resulting  from  different  runs  of  the  sample  data  always  rec- 
onciled unless  the  differences  were  large  enough  to  affect  the 
usefulness  or  reliability  of  the  data. 

PROCESSING  OPERATIONS 

Completion  of  Enumeration. — As  an  enumerator  completed  his 
assignment,  he  turned  the  portfolio  containing  questionnaires  and 
other  census  materials  over  to  his  crew  leader.  After  making 
a  final  review  of  the  enumerator's  work,  the  crew  leader  mailed 
the  portfolio  to  the  Agriculture  Processing  Office  at  Parsons, 
Kansas.  There,  each  enumerator  portfolio  was  thoroughly 
checked  for  completeness  of  all  required  forms  and  for  correct 
application  of  the  sampling  procedure. 

Editing  of  Questionnaires. — Each  agriculture  questionnaire  was 
individually  edited  and  coded  before  the  information  was  trans- 
ferred to  punch  cards  and  tabulated.  As  the  first  major  step  in 
the  editing  process,  questionnaires  that  did  not  represent  farms 
according  to   the  census  definition  were  withdrawn   from   fur- 


ther processing.  (See  p.  XIV.)  As  the  second  major  step,  the 
remaining  questionnaires  were  examined  for  errors,  omissions, 
and  inconsistencies.  Among  the  specific  items  subjected  to  con- 
sistency checks  were  the  following : 

a.  Total  acreage  compared  with  its  distribution  by  use. 

b.  Acreage  of  individual  crops  harvested  compared  with  total 
cropland  harvested. 

c.  Irrigated  acreage  compared  with  total  acres  in  the  farm. 

d.  Total  acreage  of  individual  crops  for  all  purposes  compared 
with  the  acreage  harvested  for  specific  purposes. 

e.  Quantity  of  crops  harvested  in  relation  to  acreage  harvested. 

f.  Sales  in  relation  to  production  and,  for  livestock,  to  inven- 
tories. 

g.  Total  livestock  compared  with  the  inventory  by  age  and  sex. 
h.  Expenditures  compared  with  production  and  inventories. 

Obvious  errors  in  calculations  or  in  units  of  measure,  and 
misplaced  entries  were  corrected  as  they  were  found.  Entries 
not  clearly  legible  were  rewritten.  Many  omissions  or  incon- 
sistencies were  disregarded  during  editing.  Those  of  significant 
magnitude  could  be  and  were  handled  more  efficiently  and  eco- 
nomically during  mechanical  processing  operations.  Question- 
naires containing  major  inconsistencies  and  omissions  were  re- 
ferred to  members  of  the  technical  staff  for  review.  Depending 
on  the  magnitude  of  the  data  involved,  the  technical  staff  cor- 
rected (or  supervised  the  correction  if )  the  questionnaires  either 
on  the  basis  of  information  reported  tor  other  farms  of  similar 
type  in  the  area  or  on  the  basis  of  additional  information  re- 
ceived in  response  to  letters  directed  to  the  farm  operators. 

Coding  of  Questionnaires. — Most  of  the  numerical  information 
on  a  questionnaire  was  self-coding  in  that  the  inquiry  number 
was  utilized  for  the  item  identification  on  punch  cards  or  on 
tabulations  runs.  However,  some  manual  coding  was  also  neces- 
sary for  such  items  as  irrigated  crops  for  selected  States,  crops 
infrequently  reported,  miscellaneous  poultry,  etc.  Code  numbers 
were  entered  on  questionnaires  to  classify  farms  and,  in  some 
cases,  to  identify  data  for  individual  items.  All  farms  were  coded 
by  size  of  farm  in  terms  of  total  acreage,  by  race,  and  by  tenure 
of  operator.  Farms  in  the  17  Western  States,  Louisiana,  and 
Hawaii  were  also  coded  on  the  basis  of  irrigated  cropland  and 
irrigated  pasture.  Additional  codes  were  applied  to  all  farms 
included  in  the  sample  to  classify  them  by  type  of  farm  and  by 
total  value  of  agricultural  products  sold.  Individual  items  were 
coded  only  where  reports  were  received  for  crops  or  poultry  not 
covered  by  separate  inquiries  on  the  questionnaire.  This  coding 
was  necessary  to  assure  inclusion  of  the  data  in  the  appropriate 
farm  product  totals. 

Tabulation  of  Data. — After  the  questionnaires  were  edited  and 
coded,  the  information  on  them  was  punched  on  cards.  The  cards 
were  then  mechanically  sorted  and  fed  into  machines  which 
transferred  the  data  to  tabulation  sheets.  One  of  the  initial 
and  primary  steps  in  the  machine  handling  of  the  punch  cards 
was  to  separate  and  list  those  cards  which  lacked  necessary  in- 
formation, those  which  contained  inconsistent  or  impossible  data, 
and  those  on  which  the  data  were  possible  but  of  such  magnitude 
that  a  further  review  of  the  individual  questionnaires  was  war- 
ranted. The  listing  sheets  were  examined  and,  as  necessary,  the 
cards  were  corrected.  When  the  cards  for  a  particular  county 
were  considered  satisfactory,  the  data  were  tabulated. 

Subject-matter  specialists  of  the  Bureau  and  the  U.S.  Depart- 
ment of  Agriculture  examined  all  tabulations  for  reasonableness 
and  consistency.  As  necessary,  they  made  corrections  on  the  basis 
of  a  further  review  and  reappraisal  of  the  original  reports  and 
verification  of  the  editing,  coding,  and  punching.

UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE:  1959 


PRESENTATION  OF  STATISTICS 

Statistical  Content  of  This  Report. — This  report  is  part  of  Vol- 
ume I  of  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture.  Volume  I  consists  of 
54  parts,  each  part  containing  information  about  agriculture  for 
a  single  State,  Commonwealth,  or  Possession.  Each  part  con- 
tains county  data  for  that  particular  State  or  area.  The  term 
"county,"  as  used  in  this  report  embraces  election  districts  in 
Alaska,  parishes  in  Louisiana,  municipios  (municipalities)  in 
Puerto  Rico,  etc.  The  statistics  for  1959  were  obtained  from  the 
Census  of  Agriculture  taken  in  the  "conterminous  United  States" 
(see  following  paragraph),  Hawaii,  and  Puerto  Rico  during  the 
period  October  1959  to  January  1960  and  in  Alaska,  American 
Samoa,  Guam,  and  Virgin  Islands  as  of  April  1,  1960.  Compara- 
tive data  for  years  prior  to  1959  were  obtained  from  earlier 
censuses. 

In  the  planning  of  the  publications  for  the  1960  Censuses  of 
Population  and  Housing  and  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture,  the 
term  "conterminous  United  States,"  recommended  by  the  Board 
of  Geographic  Names  to  designate  the  48-State  area  as  it  ex- 
isted before  Alaska  and  Hawaii  became  States,  was  adopted  by 
the  Bureau  of  the  Census. 

The  definitions  and  explanations  in  this  introduction  for  vol- 
ume I  generally  have  application  broad  enough  to  include  the 
States  of  Alaska  and  Hawaii,  and  the  Commonwealth  of  Puerto 
Rico  and  the  island  possessions.  However,  specific  application 
in  many  instances  may  be  limited  to  the  conterminous  United 
States ;  for  example,  references  to  earlier  censuses,  to  the  sam- 
pling methods  and  procedures,  to  specific  sections  or  questions  on 
the  questionnaires,  and  to  specific  table  numbers. 

For  each  part  of  volume  I  (one  part  for  each  State  or  area), 
a  facsimile  of  the  appropriate  questionnaire  is  reproduced  in 
the  appendix. 

The  statistics  for  States  and  counties  are  presented  according 
to  the  same  general  plan  as  was  followed  in  the  volume  I  re- 
ports for  the  1954  and  the  1950  censuses.  State  and  county  totals 
are  given  for  nearly  all  items  for  which  information  was  ob- 
tained in  the  1959  census.  However,  most  of  the  data  by  eco- 
nomic class  of  farm,  type  of  farm,  and  color  and  tenure  of  farm 
operator  are  given  only  for  States. 

Comparative  data  for  the  States  are  given  for  each  census 
year  beginning  with  1920.  Comparative  data  for  counties  are 
given  for  the  years  1959  and  1954.  For  some  items,  the  data 
obtained  from  the  1959  census  are  the  only  ones  available.  For 
comparative  purposes  1950  data  are  carried  in  county  table  6 
for  the  kind  of  road  on  which  farms  were  located. 

Comparability  of  Data. — The  data  obtained  from  the  various 
censuses  of  agriculture  are  not  strictly  comparable  for  all  items. 
For  example,  differences  from  one  census  to  another  in  the  time 
of  enumeration,  the  wording  of  the  questions,  and  the  definition 
of  a  farm  cause  some  lack  of  comparability.  Differences  con- 
sidered to  have  a  significant  effect  on  the  comparability  of  data 
are  described  in  the  text  and/or  mentioned  in  footnotes  to  the 
tables. 

Minor  Civil  Divisions. — As  in  prior  censuses,  data  for  most  of 
the  items  included  in  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture  were  tabu- 
lated for  minor  civil  divisions.  The  term  "minor  civil  division" 
applies  to  the  primary  subdivision  of  a  county  into  smaller  geo- 
graphic areas  such  as  townships,  precincts,  districts,  wards, 
beats,  municipalities,  etc.  Figures  for  these  smaller  geographic 
areas  are  not  included  in  any  of  the  published  reports,  but  they 
may  be  supplied  upon  request  and  payment  of  the  costs  of  com- 
piling and  checking  the  data. 

Prior  to  the  1954  Census,  an  enumeration  assignment  did  not 
include  more  than  one  minor  civil  division,  even  in  cases  where 
the  township,  precinct,  etc.,  did  not  have  enough  farms  to  provide 
a  full  workload  for  an  enumerator.    In  1954,  and  again  in  1959, 


the  aim  was  to  make  enumeration  assignments  large  enough  to 
keep  each  enumerator  fully  occupied  in  his  area  for  a  3-  to  4-week 
period.  Hence,  in  some  areas,  two  or  more  adjoining  minor  civil 
divisions  were  combined  into  one  enumeration  assignment.  An 
enumeration  assignment  never  comprised  the  whole  of  one  minor 
civil  division  and  a  part  of  another,  nor  a  part  of  two  or  more 
minor  civil  divisions.  A  minor  civil  division  that  included  too 
many  farms  for  one  enumerator  to  cover  during  the  enumeration 
period  was  divided  into  two  or  more  enumeration  assignments. 

In  some  cases,  the  minor  civil  division  tabulations  provide  totals 
for  a  single  minor  civil  division,  even  when  such  totals  required 
a  grouping  of  enumeration  assignments.  In  other  cases,  the  minor 
civil  division  tabulations  provide  totals  for  a  combination  of 
two  or  more  adjoining  minor  civil  divisions.  The  data  for  each 
individual  minor  civil  division  included  in  such  totals  can  be  tab- 
ulated separately,  however,  since  each  questionnaire  obtained  in 
the  census  contains  the  designation  of  the  minor  civil  division  in 
which  the  farm  headquarters  was  located.  An  additional  charge 
must  be  made  for  a  separate  tabulation  of  any  small  area  in- 
cluded in  a  total  for  two  or  more  combined  minor  civil  divisions. 

Requests  for  census  information  for  minor  civil  divisions  should 
be  directed  to  the  Agriculture  Division,  Bureau  of  the  Census, 
Washington  25,  D.C. 

DEFINITIONS  AND  EXPLANATIONS 

Descriptive  Summary  and  References. — The  definitions  and  ex- 
planations that  follow  relate  only  to  those  items  that  are  con- 
sidered to  be  inadequately  described  in  the  tables  where  they 
appear.  Although  the  descriptive  terms  and  explanations  refer 
specifically  to  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture,  many  of  them  also 
apply  to  earlier  censuses.  Most  of  the  definitions  consist  of  a 
resume  of  the  questionnaire  wording,  supplemented  by  excerpts 
from  instructions  given  to  enumerators.  For  exact  wording  of 
the  questions  and  of  the  instructions  included  on  the  question- 
naire, see  the  facsimile  of  the  1959  Agriculture  Questionnaire  in 
the  appendix  of  this  report. 

An  analysis  of  the  questions  asked  in  the  1959  census,  and  of 
the  data  obtained,  is  given  in  Volume  II,  General  Report,  Statis- 
tics by  Subjects,  United  States  Census  of  Agriculture,  1959.  The 
general  report  presents  statistics  for  States  by  subject  matter. 

General  Farm  Information 

Census  Definition  of  a  Farm. — For  the  1959  Census  of  Agricul- 
ture, the  definition  of  a  farm  was  based  primarily  on  a  combina- 
tion of  "acres  in  the  place"  and  the  estimated  value  of  agricultural 
products  sold. 

The  word  "place"  was  defined  to  include  all  land  on  which 
agricultural  operations  were  conducted  at  any  time  in  1959  under 
the  control  or  supervision  of  one  person  or  partnership.  (For 
definition  of  "agricultural  operations",  see  p.  X.)  Control  may 
have  been  exercised  through  ownership  or  management,  or 
through  a  lease,  rental,  or  cropping  arrangement. 

Places  of  less  than  10  acres  in  1959  were  counted  as  farms  if 
the  estimated  sales  of  agricultural  products  for  the  year  amounted 
to  at  least  $250.  Places  of  10  or  more  acres  in  1959  were  counted 
as  farms  if  the  estimated  sales  of  agricultural  products  for  the 
year  amounted  to  at  least  $50.  Places  having  less  than  the  $50 
or  $250  minimum  estimated  sales  in  1959  were  also  counted  as 
farms  if  they  could  normally  be  expected  to  produce  agricultural 
products  in  sufficient  quantity  to  meet  the  requirements  of  the 
definition.  This  additional  qualification  resulted  in  the  inclusion 
as  farms  of  some  places  engaged  in  farming  operations  for  the 
first  time  in  1959  and  places  affected  by  crop  failure  or  other 
unusual  conditions. 

To  avoid  biases  arising  from  an  enumerator's  personal  judg- 
ment and  opinion,  the  Bureau  did  not  give  enumerators  the  defini-

tion  of  a  farm.  Instead,  enumerators  were  instructed  to  obtain 
questionnaires  for  all  places  considered  farms  by  their  operators 
and  for  all  other  places  that  had  one  or  more  agricultural  opera- 
tions. (See  "Agricultural  Operations",  p.  X.)  In  1954,  enumer- 
ators were  instructed  to  till  questionnaires  on  the  same  basis  as 
in  1959.  In  1950,  agricultural  operations  were  denned  to  include 
every  place  of  3  or  more  acres,  whether  or  not  the  operator  con- 
sidered it  a  farm,  and  every  place  having  "specialized  operations", 
regardless  of  the  acreage.  "Specialized  operations"  referred  to 
nurseries  and  greenhouses  and  to  places  having  100  or  more 
poultry,  production  of  300  or  more  dozen  eggs  in  1949,  or  3  or 
more  hives  of  bees.  In  all  of  the  three  last  censuses,  as  a  result, 
questionnaires  were  filled  for  a  considerable  number  of  places 
that  did  not  qualify  as  farms.  The  determination  as  to  which 
questionnaires  represented  farms  was  made  during  office  process- 
ing operations  and  only  those  questionnaires  meeting  the  criteria 
for  a  farm  were  included  in  the  tabulations. 

For  both  the  1950  and  1954  Censuses  of  Agriculture,  places  of 
3  or  more  acres  were  counted  as  farms  if  the  annual  value  of 
agricultural  products,  whether  for  home  use  or  for  sale  but  ex- 
clusive of  home-garden  products,  amounted  to  $150  or  more. 
Places  of  less  than  3  acres  were  counted  as  farms  only  if  the 
annual  sales  of  agricultural  products  amounted  to  $150  or  more. 
A  few  places  with  very  low  agricultural  production  because  of 
unusual  circumstances,  such  as  crop  failure,  were  also  counted  as 
farms  if  they  normally  could  have  been  expected  to  meet  the 
minimum  value  or  sales  criteria. 

In  the  censuses  from  1925  to  1945,  enumerators  were  given  a 
definition  of  "farm"  and  were  instructed  to  obtain  reports  only 
for  those  places  which  met  the  criteria.  According  to  this  defini- 
tion, farms  included  all  places  of  3  or  more  acres,  regardless  of 
the  quantity  or  value  of  agricultural  production,  and  places  of 
less  than  3  acres  if  the  value  of  agricultural  products,  whether 
for  home  use  or  for  sale,  amounted  to  $250  or  more.  Because  of 
changes  in  price  level,  the  $250  minimum  resulted  in  the  in- 
clusion of  varying  numbers  of  farms  of  less  than  3  acres  in  the 
several  censuses  taken  during  this  period.  Generally,  the  only 
reports  excluded  from  tabulation  were  those  taken  in  error  and 
those  showing  very  limited  agricultural  production,  such  as  only 
a  small  home  garden,  a  few  fruit  trees,  a  small  flock  of  chickens, 
etc.  In  1945,  reports  for  places  of  3  acres  or  more  were  tabulated 
only  if  at  least  3  acres  were  in  cropland  and/or  pasture  or  if  the 
value  of  products  in  1944  amounted  to  at  least  $150. 

The  decrease  in  the  number  of  farms  in  1950  and  1954,  as  com- 
pared with  earlier  censuses,  was  partly  due  to  the  change  in 
farm  definition,  especially  with  respect  to  farms  of  3  or  more 
acres  in  size.  Some  of  the  places  of  3  or  more  acres  that  were 
not  counted  as  farms  in  1950  and  1954  because  the  value  of  their 
agricultural  production  was  less  than  $150  would  have  qualified 
as  farms  if  the  criteria  had  been  the  same  as  in  earlier  censuses. 

For  1959,  the  decrease  in  the  number  of  farms  as  compared 
with  all  prior  censuses  resulted  partly  from  the  change  in  farm 
definition.  The  fact  that  sales  of  agricultural  products  in  1959 
was  used  resulted  in  the  exclusion  of  some  places  that  would 
have  qualified  as  farms  had  the  value  of  agricultural  products 
alone  been  considered.  The  increase  in  the  acreage  minimum 
also  had  an  effect.  The  reduction  in  the  number  of  farms  due 
to  change  in  definition,  1954  to  1959,  is  shown  for  each  county 
in  county  table  1.  Some  characteristics  of  the  places  not  counted 
as  farms  in  1959,  but  which  would  have  been  included  in  1954, 
are  shown  in  State  table  10. 

The  change  in  farm  definition  made  in  1950  and  again  in  1959 
had  no  appreciable  effect  on  the  totals  for  livestock  or  crops 
because  the  places  affected  by  the  change  ordinarily  accounted 
for  less  than  1  percent  of  the  totals  for  a  given  county  or  State. 

For  the  States  that  comprise  the  conterminous  United  States, 
two  figures  are  published  for  each  county  on  the  number  of  farms 


in  1959.  One  is  an  actual  count  of  all  farms  and  the  other  is  an 
estimate  based  on  the  number  of  farms  included  in  the  sample. 
For  almost  every  county  there  is  a  difference  between  the  actual 
number  of  farms  and  the  estimated  number  of  farms.  Because 
of  sampling  procedure  and  sampling  variability,  the  number  of 
farms  in  the  sample  seldom  agrees  exactly  with  the  actual  num- 
ber of  farms.  For  most  counties,  the  actual  number  of  farms 
in  the  sample  was  either  more  or  less  than  precisely  20  percent 
of  all  farms.  Similarly,  totals  estimated  on  the  basis  of  data 
for  the  sample  farms  may  be  slightly  more  or  slightly  less  than 
the  actual  totals  that  would  have  been  obtained  had  the  data 
been  tabulated  for  all  farms.  Therefore,  the  estimated  number 
of  farms  reporting  certain  items  may,  in  some  instances,  be 
greater  than  the  total  number  of  farms  shown  in  county  table  1. 
However,  the  estimated  number  of  farms  is  given  in  county 
tables  5  and  6  so  that  estimates  based  on  the  sample  farms  may 
be  related  to  the  estimated  rather  than  the  actual  number  of 
farms. 

Farm  Operator. — The  term  "farm  operator"  is  used  to  designate 
a  person  who  operates  a  farm,  either  doing  the  work  himself  or 
directly  supervising  the  work.  He  may  be  the  owner,  a  member  of 
the  owner's  household,  a  hired  manager,  or  a  tenant,  renter,  or 
sharecropper.  If  he  rents  land  to  others  or  has  land  worked  on 
shares  by  others,  he  is  considered  as  operator  only  of  the  land 
which  he  retains  for  his  own  operation.  In  the  case  of  a  partner- 
ship, only  one  partner  is  counted  as  an  operator.  The  number  of 
farm  operators  is  considered  to  be  the  same  as  the  number  of 
farms. 

Farms  Reporting  or  Operators  Reporting. — Figures  for  farms  re- 
porting or  operators  reporting,  based  on  a  tabulation  of  all  farms, 
represent  the  number  of  farms,  or  operators,  for  which  the  speci- 
fied item  was  reported.  For  example,  if  there  were  1,922  farms 
in  a  county  and  only  1,465  had  chickens  4  months  old  and  over 
on  hand  at  the  time  of  enumeration,  the  number  of  farms 
reporting  chickens  would  be  shown  as  1,465.  The  difference  be- 
tween the  total  number  of  farms  and  the  number  of  farms  re- 
porting a  particular  item  represents  the  number  of  farms  not 
having  that  item,  provided  a  correct  report  was  received  for  all 
farms. 

Where  applicable,  figures  may  be  given  for  the  number  of  farms 
or  operators  not  reporting  items  that  were  intended  to  be  ob- 
tained for  all  farms;  for  example,  residence  of  farm  operator, 
State  table  4.  The  number  not  reporting,  as  compared  with  the 
total  number  of  farms  or  operators,  indicates  the  extent  of 
incompleteness  of  the  reporting  of  the  data  for  the  item. 

land  Area. — The  approximate  total  land  area  of  States  and 
counties  as  reported  for  1959  is,  in  general,  the  same  as  that  re- 
ported for  all  censuses  beginning  with  1940.  Such  differences  as 
are  shown  reflect  political  changes  in  boundaries  or  actual  changes 
in  land  area  caused  by  changes  in  the  number  or  size  of  reser- 
voirs, lakes,  streams,  etc.  For  Alaska,  the  areas  for  election 
districts  represent  the  gross  area  of  land  and  water. 

Land  in  Farms.— Except  for  managed  farms,  the  land  to  be  in- 
cluded in  each  farm  was  determined  from  the  answers  to  ques- 
tions about  the  number  of  acres  owned,  the  number  of  acres  rented 
from  others  or  worked  on  shares  for  others,  and  the  number  of 
acres  rented  to  others  or  worked  on  shares  by  others.  The  acres 
owned  and  the  acres  rented  from  others  or  worked  on  shares  for 
others  were  first  added  together  and  then  the  acres  rented  to 
others  or  worked  on  shares  by  others  were  subtracted.  The  re- 
sult represented  the  number  of  acres  in  the  farm.  The  number  of 
acres  in  a  managed  farm  was  the  difference  between  the  total 
land  managed  and  that  part  of  the  managed  land  that  was  rented 
to  others  or  worked  on  shares  by  others. 

In  the  1959,  1954,  and  1950  censuses,  enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  record  total  figures  for  land  owned,  land  rented  from 
others,  and  land  managed  for  others,  including  any  part  of  the 
land  that  was  rented  to  others.    In  censuses  prior  to  1950,  enu- 


XVI 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


merators  were  instructed  to  exclude  all  land  rented  to  others  and 
to  record  only  that  portion  of  the  acreage  owned,  rented  from 
others,  or  managed  for  others  that  was  retained  by  the  farm  op- 
erator. Thus,  the  figures  for  the  individual  tenures  of  land  are 
not  entirely  comparable  for  all  censuses.  However,  the  land  in- 
cluded in  each  farm  was  determined  on  essentially  the  same  basis 
for  all  censuses. 

The  acreage  designated  in  the  tables  as  "land  in  farms"  consists 
primarily  of  "agricultural"  land— that  is,  land  used  for  crops 
and  pasture  or  grazing.  It  also  includes  considerable  areas  of 
land  not  actually  under  cultivation  nor  used  for  pasture  or  graz- 
ing. For  example,  the  entire  acreage  of  woodland  and  wasteland 
owned  or  rented  by  farm  operators  is  included  as  land  in  farms, 
unless  it  was  being  held  for  nonagrieultural  purposes  or  unless 
the  acreage  was  unusually  large.  For  1959  and  1954,  if  a  place 
had  1,000  or  more  acres  of  woodland  not  pastured  and  wasteland, 
and  if  less  than  10  percent  of  the  total  acreage  in  the  place  was 
used  for  agricultural  purposes,  the  acreage  of  woodland  not  pas- 
tured and  wasteland  was  reduced  to  equal  the  acreage  used  for 
agriculture.  The  procedure  used  in  1950  for  excluding  unusually 
large  acreages  of  woodland  not  pastured  and  wasteland  differed 
slightly  from  the  one  used  in  1959  and  1954.  In  1950,  adjustments 
were  made  in  places  of  1,000  or  more  acres  (5,000  or  more  in  the 
17  Western  States ) ,  if  less  than  10  percent  of  the  total  acreage  was 
used  for  agricultural  purposes. 

Except  for  open  range  and  grazing  land  used  under  government 
permit,  all  grazing  land  was  to  be  included  as  land  in  farms 
provided  the  place  of  which  it  was  a  part  was  a  farm.  Grazing 
land  operated  by  Grazing  Associations  was  to  be  reported  in  the 
name  of  the  person  chiefly  responsible  for  conducting  the  business 
of  the  Association.  Land  used  rent  free  was  to  be  reported  as 
land  rented  from  others.  All  land  in  Indian  reservations  that 
was  used  for  growing  crops  or  grazing  livestock  was  to  be  in- 
cluded. Land  in  Indian  reservations  that  was  not  reported  by 
individual  Indians  and  that  was  not  rented  to  non-Indians  was 
to  be  reported  in  the  name  of  the  cooperative  group  that  used  the 
land.  In  some  instances,  an  entire  Indian  reservation  was  re- 
ported as  one  farm. 

Land  owned. — All  land  that  the  operator  and/or  his  wife 
held  under  title,  purchase  contract,  homestead  law,  or  as  heir 
or  trustee  of  an  undivided  estate  at  the  time  of  enumeration  is 
considered  as  owned. 

Land  Rented  from  Others. — This  item  includes  not  only  land 
that  the  operator  rented  or  leased  from  others  but  also  land 
he  worked  on  shares  for  others  and  land  he  occupied  rent  free. 
Grazing  land  used  under  government  permit  or  license  is  not 
included. 

Land  Rented  to  Others. — This  item  includes  all  land  rented  or 
leased  to  others,  except  land  leased  to  the  government  under  the 
Soil  Bank,  and  all  land  worked  by  others  on  shares  or  on  a 
rent-free  basis.  For  the  most  part,  the  land  rented  to  others 
represents  agricultural  land  but  it  also  includes  land  rented 
for  residential  or  other  purposes.  The  tenant  or  sharecropper 
is  considered  as  the  operator  of  land  leased,  rented,  or  worked 
on  shares  even  though  his  landlord  may  supervise  his  opera- 
tions. The  landlord  is  considered  as  operator  of  only  that  por- 
tion of  the  land  not  assigned  to  tenants  or  croppers. 

Land  Managed. — This  item  includes  all  tracts  of  land  man- 
aged for  one  or  more  employers  by  a  person  hired  on  a  salary 
basis.  A  hired  manager  was  considered  to  be  the  operator  of 
the  land  he  managed  since  he  was  responsible  for  the  agricul- 
tural operations  on  that  land  and  frequently  supervised  others 
in  performing  those  operations.  Managed  land  was  always  to 
be  reported  on  a  separate  questionnaire  whether  or  not  the 
manager  also  operated  a  farm  on  his  own  account. 

Land  in  Two  or  More  Counties. — An  individual  farm  was  al- 
ways enumerated  in  only  one  county,  even  in  cases  where  the 
land  was  located  in  two  or  more  counties.  If  the  farm  operator 
lived  on  the  farm,  the  farm  was  enumerated  in  the  county  where 
he  lived.  If  he  did  not  live  on  the  farm,  the  figures  for  the 
farm  were  tabulated  for  the  county  where  the  farm  head- 
quarters was  located.  In  cases  where  there  was  any  question  as 
to  the  location  of  the  headquarters,  figures  for  the  farm  were 
tabulated  for  the  county  where  most  of  the  land  was  located. 


Land  in  Farms  According  to  Use.— Land  in  farms  has  been 
distributed  according  to  the  way  in  which  it  was  used  in  1959. 
The  land  uses  described  in  the  following  paragraphs  are  mutually 
exclusive;  that  is,  each  acre  of  land  is  included  only  once  even 
though  it  may  have  had  more  than  one  use  during  the  year. 

Cropland  Harvested.— This  category  refers  to  all  land  from 
which  any  crops  were  harvested  in  1959,  whether  for  home  use 
or  for  sale.  It  includes  land  from  which  hay  (including  wild 
hay)  was  cut  and  land  in  berries  and  other  small  fruits,  or- 
chards, vineyards,  nurseries,  and  greenhouses.  Matured  crops 
hogged  off  or  grazed  were  considered  to  have  been  "crops  har- 
vested" and  were  reported  here.  Land  from  which  two  or 
more  crops  were  harvested  in  1959  was  to  be  counted  only  once 
in  the  land-use  classification.  Land  used  for  other  purposes 
either  before  or  after  the  crops  were  harvested  was  to  be  re- 
ported as  cropland  harvested,  without  regard  to  the  other  uses. 

The  enumerator  was  instructed  to  check  the  figure  for  crop- 
land harvested  for  each  farm  by  adding  the  acreages  of  the 
individual  crops  and  subtracting  the  acreages  from  which  two 
or  more  crops  were  harvested.  This  checking  procedure  was 
repeated  during  the  office  processing  of  questionnaires  for  all 
farms  having  100  or  more  acres  of  cropland  harvested. 

Cropland  used  only  for  Pasture. — This  land-use  classification 
includes  rotation  pasture  and  all  other  land  used  only  for  pas- 
ture or  grazing  that  the  operator  considered  could  have  been 
used  for  crops  without  additional  improvement.  Enumerators 
were  instructed  to  include  land  planted  to  crops  that  were 
hogged  off,  pastured,  or  grazed  before  maturity  but  to  exclude 
land  pastured  before  or  after  hay  or  other  crops  were  harvested 
from  it.  Permanent  open  pasture  may  have  been  reported 
either  for  this  item  or  for  "other  pasture"  depending  on  whether 
or  not  the  operator  considered  it  as  cropland. 

The  figures  for  1945  and  earlier  censuses  are  not  entirely 
comparable  with  those  for  the  last  three  censuses.  For  1945, 
the  figures  include  only  cropland  used  solely  for  pasture  in  1944 
that  had  been  plowed  within  the  preceding  seven  years.  The 
figures  for  1940,  1935,  and  1925  are  more  nearly  comparable 
with  those  for  1959,  1954,  and  1950,  however,  because  they  in- 
clude land  pastured  that  could  have  been  plowed  and  used  for 
crops  without  additional  clearing,  draining,  or  irrigating. 

Cropland  not  Harvested  and  not  Pastured. — This  classification 
represents  a  total  of  three  subclasses  for  the  17  Western  States 
and  two  subclasses  for  other  States. 

Cultivated  Summer  Fallow. — This  subclass  of  land  is  shown 
only  for  the  17  Western  States.  It  refers  to  cropland  that 
was  plowed  and  cultivated  but  left  unseeded  for  the  1959 
harvest  in  order  to  control  weeds  and  conserve  moisture. 

Soil  Improvement  Grasses  and  Legumes. — For  the  1959  cen- 
sus, land  used  only  for  cover  crops  to  control  erosion  or  to 
be  plowed  under  for  green  manure  is  tabulated  separately 
from  "other  cropland".  After  the  establishment  of  the  Soil 
Bank,  land  that  would  normally  have  been  used  for  other 
purposes  was  frequently  planted  to  soil-improvement  crops. 
In  counties  where  large  acreages  were  placed  in  the  Soil 
Bank,  the  total  of  land  used  for  soil-improvement  crops  plus 
"other  cropland"  may  be  considerably  larger  than  the  "other 
cropland"  shown  for  previous  censuses. 

Other  Cropland. — This  subclass  includes  idle  cropland,  land 
in  crops  intended  for  harvest  after  1959,  and  cropland  not 
harvested  because  of  complete  crop  failure,  low  prices,  labor 
shortage,  or  other  reasons.  The  1959  figures  for  "other 
cropland"  are  not  entirely  comparable  with  those  for  previ- 
ous censuses  since  they  do  not  include  land  used  only  for 
soil-improvement  crops.     (See  preceding  paragraph.) 

Woodland  Pastured. — This  classification  includes  all  wood- 
land where  livestock  were  pastured  or  grazed  in  1959.  The 
instruction  on  the  questionnaire — "Include  as  woodland  all 
wood  lots  and  timber  tracts ;  cutover  and  deforested  land 
which  has  value  for  wood  products  and  has  not  been  improved 
for  pasture" — represents  a  somewhat  more  precise  definition 
than  the  corresponding  instruction  contained  on  the  1954  ques- 
tionnaire. No  definition  of  .woodland  was  given  in  1950  apart 
from  an  instruction  to  enumerators  not  to  include  brush  pas- 
ture as  woodland.  Some  of  the  changes  in  woodland  acreages 
from  one  census  to  another  may  merely  represent  differences 
in  interpretation  as  to  what  constitutes  "woodland." 

Woodland  not  Pastured. — This  classification  refers  to  all 
woodland  not  used  for  pasture  or  grazing  in  1959,  including 
land  in  operated  farms  that  was  placed  in  the  Soil  Bank  and 
planted  to  trees.  Unusually  large  tracts  of  timberland  that 
were  reported  as  woodland  not  pastured  were  excluded  from

the  tabulation  of  land  in  farms  when  it  was  evident  that  such 
land  was  held  primarily  for  nonagricultural  purposes. 

Other  Pasture. — This  classification  refers  to  all  land  other 
than  woodland  and  cropland  that  was  used  only  for  pasture 
or  grazing  in  1959.  It  includes  noncrop  open  or  brush  pasture 
and  cutover  or  deforested  land  that  has  been  improved  and 
used  for  pasture.  The  figures  for  the  last  three  censuses  are 
comparable  but  those  for  1945  include  all  nonwoodland  pas- 
ture that  had  not  been  plowed  during  the  preceding  seven 
years.  For  the  1940  census  and  earlier  years,  the  figures  are 
more  nearly  comparable  with  those  for  the  last  three  censuses. 
However,  the  classification  may  be  somewhat  less  inclusive 
because  land  that  could  have  been  plowed  and  used  for  crops 
without  additional  clearing,  draining,  or  irrigating  was  classi- 
fied as  plowable  pasture  and  included  with  "cropland  used 
only  for  pasture". 

Improved  Pasture. — This  subclass  refers  to  that  portion  of 
"other  pasture"  on  which  one  or  more  of  the  following  prac- 
tices had  been  used:  liming,  fertilizing,  seeding,  irrigating, 
draining,  or  the  clearing  of  weed  or  brush  growth.     The  fig- 
ures are  comparable  with  those  for  1954,  when  the  question 
on  improved  pasture  was  asked  for  the  first  time. 
Other  Land. — This  classification  refers  to  all   land  not   in- 
cluded in  the  preceding  land-use  classifications,  such  as  house 
lots,  barn  lots,  lanes,  roads,  ditches,  land  area  of  ponds,  and 
wasteland.     This  figure  for  1959  was  obtained  from  the  ma- 
chine tabulations  by  subtracting  the  total  of  all  other  uses 
from  the  total  land  in  all  farms  reported  for  a  given  county 
or  classification.    Hence,  there  is  no  figure  given  to  represent 
the  farms  reporting  this  item. 

Value  of  Land  and  Buildings. — Only  average  values  of  land 
and  buildings  per  farm  and  per  acre  are  presented  in  this  report. 
They  are  estimates  based  on  data  obtained  for  sample  farms. 
Estimates  of  the  total  value  of  land  and  buildings  by  States, 
geographic  divisions,  and  the  United  States,  are  presented  in 
volume  II.  . 

The  enumerator  was  instructed  to  record  the  market  value  of 
the  land  and  the  buildings  on  that  land.  Market  value  was  defined 
as  the  price  which  the  farm  operator  would  expect  to  receive  for 
the  land  and  buildings  if  he  were  to  sell  them  on  the  day  of 
enumeration. 

More  problems  and  difficulties  arise  in  the  enumeration  of  farm- 
real-estate  values  than  in  the  enumeration  of  most  other  agri- 
cultural items.  Most  of  the  items  enumerated  require  the  re- 
spondent to  make  a  statement  of  fact.  For  example,  information 
about  the  number  and  value  of  farm  animals  sold  alive  during  the 
year  is  based  on  actual  transactions.  Similarly,  information  about 
livestock  inventories  relates  to  the  situation  existing  on  a  spe- 
cific place  at  a  specific  time.  Reports  concerning  the  value  of 
land  and  buildings,  however,  are  estimates  based  almost  entirely 
on  opinion.  The  majority  of  farms  have  not  changed  hands  for 
many  years  and  are  not  currently  for  sale.  For  such  farms,  the 
operators  are  not  likely  to  have  any  clear  basis  for  estimating  the 
value.  To  make  an  intelligent  and  objective  estimate,  a  respond- 
ent first  needs  to  make  an  estimate  of  the  prevailing  average 
market  value  of  farms  in  his  community.  Then,  he  must  either 
add  to  or  subtract  from  that  estimate  to  allow  for  the  different 
characteristics  of  his  own  farm.  In  many  cases,  an  operator  who 
would  not  sell  his  farm  under  any  circumstances  may  report  an 
unreasonably  high  market  value.  In  other  cases,  a  farm  operator 
who  acquired  his  real  estate  during  a  period  of  relatively  low 
prices  may  estimate  an  unrealistlcally  low  value  by  current  stand- 
ards. Because  of  the  extent  of  variation  that  is  known  to  exist 
in  real  estate  values,  it  is  difficult  to  devise  checking  procedures 
that  will  identify  inaccurate  estimates. 

Age  of  Operator. — Farm  operators  were  classified  by  age  into 
six  age  groups.  The  average  age  of  farm  operators  was  derived 
from  the  sum  of  the  ages  of  all  farm  operators  reporting  age 
divided  by  the  number  reporting.  The  number  of  farm  operators 
65  or  more  years  of  age  is  an  actual  count  based  on  the  operators 
reporting  age. 


Residence  of  Operator. — Farm  operators  were  classified  by  resi- 
dence according  to  whether  or  not  they  lived  on  the  farms  they 
were  operating.  Some  of  those  who  did  not  live  on  the  farms 
they  operated  themselves  lived  on  farms  operated  by  others.  In 
cases  where  all  the  land  was  rented  from  others  or  worked  on 
shares  for  others,  the  operator  was  considered  to  live  on  the  farm 
operated  provided  the  dwelling  he  occupied  was  included  in  the 
rental  agreement.  The  dwelling,  in  such  cases,  was  not  neces- 
sarily on  the  land  being  operated.  Similarly,  a  farm  operator 
who  did  not  live  on  the  land  being  cultivated  or  grazed  but  who 
had  some  agricultural  operations  (other  than  a  home  garden) 
at  his  dwelling  was  considered  as  living  on  the  farm  operated. 

Since  some  farm  operators  live  on  their  farms  only  during 
a  part  of  the  year,  comparability  of  the  figures  for  various  cen- 
suses may  be  affected  by  the  date  of  enumeration. 

In  a  few  eases,  the  enumerator  failed  to  report  the  residence  of 
the  farm  operator.  Differences  between  the  total  number  of 
farms  and  the  number  of  farm  operators  classified  by  residence 
indicate  the  extent  of  under-reporting. 

Year  Began  Operating  Present  Farm. — Enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  report  the  year  during  which  a  farm  operator  began 
to  operate  his  present  farm  and,  if  the  year  was  1958  or  later, 
also  to  report  the  month.  The  year  was  intended  to  refer  to  the 
first  year  of  the  period  during  which  the  operator  had  been  in 
continuous  charge  of  his  present  farm  or  of  any  part  of  it.  The 
time  of  year  that  farmers  move  is  indicated  by  the  month  they 
began  operating  their  farms,  as  shown  by  a  monthly  breakdown 
of  the  reports  for  farmers  who  began  operating  their  present 
farms  during  1958  and  1959. 

Off-Farm  Work  and  Other  Income. — To  obtain  a  measure  of  the 
extent  to  which  farm  operators  rely  on  nonfarm  sources  for  part 
of  their  income,  four  questions  were  asked  of  all  farm  operators. 
The  first  question  asked  for  the  number  of  days  the  operator 
worked  off  his  farm  in  1959.  The  other  three  questions,  to  be 
answered  "Yes"  or  "No,"  asked  (1)  whether  other  members  of  the 
operator's  household  did  any  work  off  the  farm ;  (2)  whether  any 
income  was  received  from  sources  other  than  the  sale  of  agri- 
cultural products  from  the  farm  operated;  and  (3)  whether  the 
combined  income  of  all  members  of  the  household  from  off-farm 
work  and  other  sources  was  greater  than  the  total  value  of  agri- 
cultural products  sold  from  the  farm  operated. 

Off-farm  work  was  defined  to  include  work  on  someone  else's 
farm  for  pay  as  well  as  all  types  of  nonfarm  jobs,  businesses,  and 
professions,  whether  the  work  was  done  on  the  farm  premises  or 
elsewhere.    Exchange  work  was  not  included. 

The  questions  asked  in  the  1959  Census  are  closely  comparable 
with  those  asked  in  1954.  The  data  for  1959  are  actual  totals  of 
all  operators  reporting  off-farm  work  and  other  income  whereas 
those  for  1954  are  estimated  totals  based  on  the  sample. 

Equipment  and  Facilities. — In  1959  as  in  several  earlier  cen- 
suses, data  about  specified  equipment  and  facilities  were  obtained 
for  only  a  sample  of  farms.  Farm  operators  were  asked  to  report 
equipment  and  facilities  that  were  on  the  farm  at  the  time  of  enu- 
meration, regardless  of  ownership.  They  were  to  include  items 
that  were  temporarily  out  of  order  but  not  any  that  were  worn 
out. 

Data  in  terms  of  actual  number  were  obtained  for  the  follow- 
ing items  of  farm  equipment  in  1959 :  (1)  grain  combines,  (2)  corn 
pickers,  (3)  pick-up  balers,  (4)  field  forage  harvesters,  (5)  mo- 
tortrucks, (6)  wheel  tractors,  (7)  garden  tractors,  (8)  crawler 
tractors,  and  (9)  automobiles.  Definitions  given  enumerators  in- 
cluded the  following  specifications,  among  others :  Corn  pickers 
related  to  all  types  of  machines  used  for  picking  corn,  whether 
used  in  separate  or  in  combined  picking-shelling  operations. 
Pick-up  balers  were  to  include  both  hand-tie  and  automatic  balers 
but  not  stationary  ones.  Motortrucks  were  to  include  pick-up 
trucks  and  truck-trailer  combinations ;  jeeps  and  station  wagons 


XVIII 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


were  also  to  be  included  If  they  were  used  primarily  as  trucks, 
but  school  buses  were  specifically  excluded.  Wheel  tractors  spe- 
cifically excluded  garden  tractors,  implements  with  built-in  power 
units,  such  as  self-propelled  combines  or  powered  buck  rakes,  and 
the  power  unit  of  a  truck-trailer  combination.  Automobiles  were 
to  include  jeeps  and  station  wagons  if  they  were  used  primarily 
as  passenger  cars. 

Questions  to  be  answered  "Yes"  or  "No"  provided  information 
as  to  the  presence  or  absence  of  the  following  items:  (1)  tele- 
phone, (2)  home  freezer,  (3)  milking  machine,  (4)  electric  milk 
cooler,  (5)  bulk-type  milk  cooler  (in  six  States  only — Michigan, 
Minnesota,  New  York,  Ohio,  Pennsylvania,  and  Wisconsin), 
(6)  crop  drier  and  (7)  power-operated  elevator,  conveyor,  or 
blower. 

Comparable  data  from  one  census  to  another  are  not  available 
for  all  items.  The  questions  asked  about  equipment  during  a 
given  census  reflect  changes  in  farm  mechanization  and  in  the 
facilities  available  to  farm  families.  Questions  about  some  items 
of  equipment  were  asked  in  1959  for  the  first  time  (electric  milk 
cooler,  crop  drier,  bulk-type  milk  cooler,  etc.).  Similarly,  some 
questions  that  were  asked  in  earlier  censuses  were  omitted  in 
1959.  For  example,  the  use  of  electricity  is  now  so  widespread 
that  there  is  no  longer  any  need  for  obtaining  a  count  of  the 
farms  having  it. 

Farms  by  Kind  of  Road. — The  classification  of  farms  by  the  kind 
of  road  on  which  they  are  located  is  based  on  only  a  sample  of 
farms.  The  enumerator  was  instructed  to  report,  on  the  basis 
of  his  own  observation,  the  kind  of  road  on  which  the  most 
frequently  used  entrance  to  the  farm  was  located.  For  farms 
consisting  of  two  or  more  tracts,  he  was  to  limit  his  report  to  the 
tract  on  which  the  farm  operator  had  his  dwelling  or  other 
headquarters. 

Farm  Labor. — The  questions  about  farm  labor  were  asked  only 
for  the  sample  farms  and  related  to  persons  working  during 
the  calendar  week  preceding  the  week  of  enumeration.  Since 
the  enumeration  starting  dates  varied  by  geographic  areas,  and 
the  enumeration  within  each  area  lasted  over  a  period  of  several 
weeks,  the  calendar  weeks  to  which  the  data  apply  also  vary. 
Thus,  the  data  for  an  individual  farm  may  relate  to  any  one 
week  during  the  months  of  October,  November,  or  December,  or 
even,  in  a  few  instances,  to  weeks  during  September  1959  or 
January  1960. 

Farm  labor  was  defined  to  include  any  work,  chores,  or  planning 
necessary  to  the  agricultural  operations  of  the  farm ;  and  to  ex- 
clude housework,  contract  construction  work,  custom  machine 
work,  and  repair,  installation,  or  construction  work  done  by  per- 
sons employed  specifically  for  such  work.  The  farm  labor  in- 
formation contained  in  this  report  represents  estimates  based  on 
answers  to  questions  relating  to  the  farm  work  or  chores  done 
during  the  week  by  (1)  operator,  (2)  unpaid  members  of  the 
operator's  family,  and  (3)  hired  persons.  An  operator  was 
considered  as  working  if  he  worked  one  or  more  hours ;  unpaid 
members  of  the  operator's  family,  if  they  worked  15  or  more 
hours ;  and  hired  persons,  if  they  worked  at  all  during  the  week. 

Data  are  not  fully  comparable  from  one  census  to  another, 
primarily  because  of  d'fferences  in  the  period  to  which  they  relate. 
In  1954,  the  data  were  purposely  related  to  either  one  of  two 
calendar  weeks,  depending  in  part  on  the  starting  date  set  for 
the  enumeration  and  in  part  on  which  week  represented  a  period 
of  peak  employment  within  a  given  State.  For  the  majority  of 
States,  the  period  specified  was  the  week  of  September  26-October 
2 ;  for  other  States,  the  week  of  October  24-30. 

In  1950,  as  in  1959,  the  data  related  to  the  week  preceding  the 
actual  enumeration.  Unlike  1959,  however,  enumeration  starting 
dates  were  identical  for  all  States  in  1950  (April  1)  but  since 
several  weeks  were  required  to  complete  the  enumeration,  the 
calendar  week  preceding  the  enumeration  was  not  identical  for 


all  farms.  In  1945  and  1935,  the  number  of  farm  workers  related 
to  the  first  week  in  January  and,  in  1940,  to  the  last  week  in 
March.  In  1945,  1940,  and  1935,  only  persons  working  the  equiv- 
alent of  two  or  more  days  during  the  specified  week  were  to  be 
included.  In  1945  and  1940,  an  additional  specification  limited 
the  workers  to  those  14  years  old  and  over. 

Experience  gained  from  earlier  censuses  indicates  that  farm 
labor  data  are  often  unsatisfactorily  reported  unless  the  week 
specified  is  the  week  immediately  preceding  the  actual  enumer- 
ation. When  a  farm  operator  was  asked  to  report  the  number  of 
persons  employed  during  a  specified  week  that  was  several  weeks 
prior  to  enumeration,  he  often  reported  the  highest  number  of 
persons  employed  during  the  year.  Obviously  incorrect  reports 
were  adjusted  to  make  the  data  reflect  more  nearly  the  situation 
known  to  exist  during  the  specified  week.  The  farm  labor  data 
for  1954  relates  to  a  specified  week  which,  in  some  cases,  was  sev- 
eral weeks  prior  to  enumeration.  Few  adjustments  were  made 
in  those  data,  however,  even  though  there  were  indications  of 
incorrect  reporting. 

Regular  and  Seasonal  Workers. — Hired  persons  working  on 
the  farm  during  the  week  concerned  were  classed  as  "regular" 
workers  if  the  period  of  actual  or  expected  employment  was  150 
days  or  more  during  the  year.  They  were  classed  as  "seasonal" 
workers  if  the  period  of  actual  or  expected  employment  was 
less  than  150  days.  In  cases  where  the  period  of  employment 
was  not  reported  for  an  individual  farm,  it  was  estimated  from 
data  for  such  items  as  basis  of  payment,  wage  rates,  expendi- 
tures for  labor  in  1959,  and  type  of  farming  operations. 

Hired  Workers  by  Basis  of  Payment. — Hired  persons  were 
also  classified  according  to  whether  they  were  paid  on  a 
monthly,  weekly,  daily,  or  hourly  basis,  or  by  piecework.  In 
cases  of  incomplete  reporting,  the  basis  of  payment  for  hired 
workers  was  supplied  during  the  office  processing  operations. 

Wage  Rates  and  Hours  Worked. — The  agreed  cash  rate  of  pay 
was  asked  for  each  class  of  hired  worker  except  those  em- 
ployed on  a  piecework  basis.  (The  number  and  the  earnings  of 
persons  paid  on  a  piecework  basis  were  required  for  those  who 
worked  on  Friday  of  the  week  preceding  the  enumeration.) 
The  number  of  hours  that  workers  were  expected  to  work  to 
earn  their  pay  was  asked  for  each  class  except  those  employed 
on  an  hourly  or  piecework  basis.  For  1959  and  1954,  the  data 
include  office  estimates  for  farms  submitting  incomplete  reports 
of  wage  rates  and  hours  worked.  The  estimates  were  consistent 
with  the  size  and  type  of  operations  for  the  individual  farm  as 
compared  with  similar  farms  in  the  area  for  which  complete 
reports  were  received.  The  corresponding  data  for  1950  apply 
only  to  farms  that  reported  both  wage  rates  and  hours  worked. 

Fertilizer  and  Lime. — The  questions  about  fertilizer  and  lime, 
asked  only  for  the  sample  farms,  relate  to  the  acreage  on  which 
fertilizer  and  lime  were  used  and  to  the  quantity  used.  Farm 
operators  were  asked  to  report  total  quantities  used  in  1959  on 
the  farms  they  operated  regardless  of  when  or  by  whom  the  ferti- 
lizer and  lime  were  purchased.  In  the  South,  some  landlords 
who  operated  farms  themselves  included  the  fertilizer  and  lime 
they  had  purchased  for  use  on  their  tenant-operated  land.  Such 
fertilizer  and  lime  may  also  have  been  reported  by  the  tenants. 
When  double  reporting  was  detected  during  the  editing  process, 
the  data  on  the  questionnaires  concerned  were  adjusted  to  elim- 
inate duplication  in  the  totals. 

The  1959  data  for  fertilizer  and  lime  are  entirely  comparable 
with  those  for  1954.  A  breakdown  between  dry  and  liquid  fer- 
tilizing materials  was  not  obtained  in  1954  and  data  on  cost 
of  either  fertilizer  or  lime  were  not  obtained  in  1959. 

Fertilizer. — The  report  for  fertilizer  was  to  refer  only  to  com- 
mercial fertilizer  and  fertilizing  materials,  including  rock 
phosphate.  The  acres  fertilized  and  the  tons  of  fertilizer  ap- 
plied to  those  acres  were  obtained  separately  for  selected  crops. 
The  selected  crops  varied  by  region  so  that  it  was  possible  to 
obtain  detailed  data  for  the  crops  most  commonly  fertilized 
in  each  region.  In  cases  where  the  same  land  was  used  for 
more  than  one  crop,  the  acres  fertilized  were  to  be  reported 
separately  for  each  crop.  If  the  same  crop  was  fertilized 
more  than  once,  however,  the  acres  in  that  crop  were  to  be 
reported  only  once.    In  all  cases,  the  total  quantity  of  fer- 


INTRODUCTION 


XIX 


tilizer  used  In  1959  was  to  be  reported,  including  quantities 
used  on  land  occupied  by  crops  planted  in  1958  or  by  crops 
to  be  harvested  in  1960. 

Reports  for  quantity  of  fertilizer  and  fertilizing  materials 
used  were  required  for  both  dry  and  liquid  materials.  The 
terms  "dry"  and  "liquid"  referred  to  the  form  in  which  the 
fertilizers  and  fertilizing  materials  were  purchased  and  not 
to  the  way  in  which  they  were  applied.  Thus,  dry  fertilizers 
were  those  purchased  in  dry  or  solid  form,  as  powders,  dusts, 
granules,  pellets,  etc. ;  liquid  fertilizers  were  those  purchased 
in  fluid  form,  as  solutions  or  as  liquefied  gases. 

Lime. — The  data  for  lime  relate  to  the  total  acreage  limed  in 
1959  and  the  total  tonnage  of  lime  and  liming  materials  used 
on  those  acres  for  purposes  of  conditioning  the  soil.  Instruc- 
tions on  the  questionnaire  stated  that  ground  limestone,  hy- 
drated  and  burnt  lime,  marl,  and  oyster  shells  were  to  be 
included  but  that  lime  used  for  spraying  or  sanitation  purposes 
was  to  be  omitted. 

For  some  counties,  the  tonnage  of  lime  shown  in  the  table 
may  be  less  than  the  tonnage  reported  for  the  Agriculture  Con- 
servation Program  or  the  Conservation  Reserve  Program  of 
the  Soil  Bank.  Differences  may  be  due  either  to  sampling 
error  or  to  under-reporting  by  farm  operators.  Many  of  the 
differences  are  minimized  or  eliminated  entirely  in  the  data 
presented  on  a  State  or  regional  basis. 

Specified  Farm  Expenditures. — The  data  for  farm  expenditures 
are  estimates  based  on  reports  obtained  from  the  sample  farms. 
The  1959  questionnaire  contained  questions  for  six  items  of  farm 
expenditure:  (1)  purchase  of  feed  for  livestock  and  poultry, 
(2)  purchase  of  livestock  and  poultry,  (3)  machine  hire, 
(4)  hired  labor,  (5)  seeds,  bulbs,  plants,  and  trees,  and  (6)  gaso- 
line and  other  petroleum  fuel  and  oil.  With  the  exception  of 
items  (2)  and  (5),  exactly  the  same  questions  were  asked  in 
1954.  For  each  item  specified,  the  total  expenditures  made  for 
the  farm  in  1959  were  to  be  reported,  whether  made  by  the 
farm  operator,  his  landlord,  or  both.  A  farm  operator  who 
rented  part  of  his  land  to  others  was  to  report  only  the  ex- 
penditures for  the  land  he  operated  himself.  Enumerators  were 
instructed  to  ask  respondents  who  had  difficulty  estimating 
their  expenses  for  the  period  between  enumeration  and  the  end 
of  the  year  to  estimate  them  on  the  basis  of  current  costs. 

Feed. — The  report  on  feed  purchased  for  livestock  and  poultry 
was  to  include  expenditures  for  grain,  hay,  millfeeds,  pasture, 
salt,  condiments,  concentrates,  and  mineral  supplements  as 
well  as  for  the  grinding  and  mixing  of  feed.  The  estimated 
cost  of  items  furnished  by  a  landlord,  contractor,  or  other 
owner  for  feeding  poultry  and  livestock  kept  on  the  farm  was 
also  to  be  included.  Payments  made  by  a  tenant  to  his  land- 
lord for  feed  grown  on  the  tenant  farm  were  to  be  excluded. 

Livestock  and  Poultry. — The  cost  of  baby  chicks  and  turkey 
poults  was  to  be  included  in  the  expenditures  made  for  the 
purchase  of  livestock  and  poultry.  Enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  ask  the  farm  operator  to  include  the  cost  or  esti- 
mated purchase  value  of  poultry  and  livestock  provided  by 
others  and  cared  for  by  the  operator  under  a  contract  feeding 
arrangement.  The  cost  of  livestock  purchased  for  resale  within 
30  days  was  not  to  be  included.  A  short-term  transaction  of 
that  nature  was  considered  to  be  a  dealer  operation,  not  an 
agricultural  one. 

Data  on  the  purchase  of  livestock  and  poultry  were  not  ob- 
tained in  1954.  The  instructions  for  the  1950  census  specified 
that  expenditures  for  domestic  rabbits,  fur-bearing  animals 
kept  in  captivity,  and  bees  were  to  be  included.  Any  lack  of 
comparability  in  the  1950  and  1959  data  resulting  from  inclu- 
sion or  exclusion  of  rabbits,  fur-bearing  animals,  or  bees  is 
considered  to  be  so  slight  as  to  be  insignificant 

Machine  Hire. — Expenditures  for  machine  hire  relate  to  cus- 
tom machine  work,  such  as  tractor  hire,  threshing,  grain  or 
seed  combining,  silo  filling,  baling,  cotton  picking,  cotton  gin- 
ning, corn  picking,  plowing,  vegetable  harvesting,  fruit  pick- 
ing, spraying,  and  dusting.  Any  amount  spent  for  the  labor 
included  in  the  cost  of  machine  hire  was  to  be  considered  as 
part  of  the  total  expenditure.  The  cost  of  freight  or  trucking 
and  exchange  work  without  pay  were  to  be  omitted. 

Hired  Labor. — Expenditures  for  hired  labor  were  to  include 
total  cash  payments  made  in  1959  to  family  members  and  to 
others  for  farm  labor.  Payments  to  persons  supplied  by  a  con- 
tractor or  a  cooperative  organization  and  paid  directly  by 
them  or  by  the  crew  boss  were  also  to  be  included.  Payments 


for  the  following  types  of  work  were  to  be  excluded :  house- 
work, contract  construction  work,  custom  machine  work,  and 
repair,  installation,  or  construction  work  done  by  persons  spe- 
cifically employed  for  such  work. 

Gasoline  and  Other  Petroleum  Fuel  and  Oil. — Expenditures  for 
gasoline  and  other  petroleum  fuel  and  oil  were  to  relate  only 
to  the  products  used  in  the  farm  business.  Enumerators  were 
instructed  to  exclude  the  cost  of  petroleum  products  used 
for  the  family  automobile  when  operated  for  other  than  farm 
business  purposes  and  of  products  used  in  the  farmhouse  for 
heating,  cooking,  and  lighting. 

Seeds,  Bulbs,  Plants,  and  Trees. — Expenditures  were  to  repre- 
sent the  total  amount  spent  for  seeds,  bulbs,  plants,  and  trees 
to  be  used  on  the  farm  operated.  The  value  of  seed  grown  on 
the  farm  was  to  be  excluded.  For  nurseries  and  greenhouses, 
the  cost  of  products  purchased  for  immediate  resale  was  also 
to  be  excluded. 

This  item  of  expenditure  was  not  included  in  the  1954  Census. 
The  data  are  comparable  with  those  for  1950,  however. 

Crops 

Crops  Harvested.— The  1959  agriculture  questionnaire  was  simi- 
lar to  the  questionnaire  used  in  several  previous  censuses  in 
that  it  provided  for  the  collection  of  detailed  data  for  all  crops 
harvested  on  each  individual  farm.  The  variation  in  the  crops 
listed  on  the  questionnaires  used  In  different  States  made  pos- 
sible the  separate  reporting  of  all  important  crops  grown  In  a 
given  area.  All  versions  of  the  questionnaire  contained  several 
"All  other  crops"  questions  where  crops  not  specifically  listed  In 
separate  questions  were  to  be  reported. 

Acreage  of  Crops  Harvested. — In  most  instances,  the  acreage 
reported  for  individual  crops  represents  the  area  harvested 
during  1959.  The  area  harvested  is  often  less  than  the  area 
planted.  For  fruit  orchards  and  groves,  vineyards,  and  planted 
nut  trees,  the  acreage  reported  represents  the  total  area  in 
both  bearing  and  nonbearing  trees  and  vines  as  of  the  date  of 
enumeration — usually  a  date  in  October,  November,  or  Decem- 
ber 1959.  For  soybeans,  cowpeas,  and  peanuts,  the  acreage 
grown  for  all  purposes  was  reported  as  well  as  the  acreage  har- 
vested for  specific  purposes.  For  velvet  beans,  only  the  acreage 
grown  was  reported.  As  the  enumeration  was  about  to  begin 
in  South  Florida  (those  counties  In  which  the  enumeration  was 
begun  on  October  7),  an  instruction  was  issued  to  the  effect 
that  the  data  for  vegetables  and  potato  crops  should  relate 
to  a  full  year,  beginning  on  October  1,  1958,  and  ending  Sep- 
tember 30, 1959. 

Quantity  of  Crops  Harvested. — Except  for  citrus  fruits,  olives, 
avocados,  and  for  vegetable  and  potato  crops  in  South  Florida 
(see  preceding  paragraph)  data  for  quantity  harvested  relate 
to  the  calendar  year  1959.  For  citrus  fruits,  the  quantity 
harvested  from  the  bloom  of  1958  for  the  1958-59  marketing 
season  was  to  be  reported.  For  olives,  the  crop  harvested  in 
1959  was  to  be  reported  for  all  States  except  California  and 
Arizona.  Enumerators  in  those  two  States  were  instructed  to 
report  olives  harvested  from  the  bloom  of  1958  during  the  1958- 
59  harvest  season  (September  15,  1958,  to  February  28,  1959). 
In  the  case  of  avocados,  the  data  for  California  were  to  relate 
to  the  quantity  harvested  from  the  bloom  of  1958  for  the 
marketing  season  that  extended  from  October  1,  1958  to  Sep- 
tember 30,  1959;  the  data  for  Florida  were  to  relate  to  the 
crop  harvested  for  the  marketing  season  that  extended  from 
July  1,  1959,  to  February  28,  1960.  Respondents  were  to 
estimate  quantities  not  yet  harvested  at  the  time  of 
enumeration. 

Unit  of  Measure. — The  unit  of  measure  in  which  quantities 
were  to  be  reported  has  varied  for  some  crops,  not  only  from 
■State  to  State,  but  also  from  census  to  census.  The  aim  has 
been  to  permit  reporting  in  the  units  of  measure  currently 
in  use.  In  the  State  and  county  tables,  the  quantities  harvested 
for  each  crop  are  usually  expressed  in  the  unit  of  measure 
given  on  the  1959  agriculture  questionnaire.  In  1959,  for  corn 
and  Irish  potatoes,  a  choice  between  two  units  in  which  to 
report  the  production  was  given  in  some  States.  (See  the 
discussion  for  those  crops.)  To  provide  readily  comparable 
information,  data  published  in  earlier  reports  in  different  units 
of  measure  generally  have  been  converted  to  the  units  used  in 
1959. 

Corn. — In  the  1959  census,  detailed  questions  regarding  the 
purpose  for  which  corn  was  harvested  were  asked  in  all  States. 
For  most  States,  bushels  was  the  only  unit  specified  for  corn 


XX 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE:  1959 


for  grain.  In  some  areas,  however,  where  farmers  were  not 
accustomed  to  using  bushels  as  the  unit  of  measure,  the  question- 
naire contained  a  provision  for  the  quantity  of  corn  for  grain 
to  be  reported  either  in  bushels  (shelled  basis)  or  in  baskets  of 
ear  corn.  As  in  former  censuses,  some  reports  were  received 
in  units  of  measure  other  than  bushels  or  baskets.  Prior  to 
tabulation,  all  reports  were  converted  to  bushels  (shelled  basis) 
on  the  basis  of  the  following  factors:  70  pounds  of  ear  corn, 
2  baskets  of  ears,  or  56  pounds  of  shelled  corn  equal  one  bushel. 
A  barrel  of  ear  corn  was  usually  considered  equal  to  5  bushels  of 
shelled  corn. 

Annual  Legumes. For  soybeans,  cowpeas,  and  peanuts,  the 

acres  and  quantity  grown  or  harvested  for  specific  .purposes,  as 
well  as  the  total  acreage  grown  for  all  purposes,  were  obtained 
for  areas  where  these  crops  are  grown  extensively ;  for  velvet- 
beans,  only  the  total  grown  for  all  purposes  was  obtained.  For 
all  these  crops  except,  possibly  peanuts,  the  total  acreage  grown 
for  all  purposes  includes  some  acreage  that  was  plowed  under 
for  green  manure.  In  a  few  Southern  States,  separate  figures 
were  obtained  for  the  acres  grown  alone  and  the  acres  grown 
with  other  crops.  In  1059,  as  in  1954,  enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  report  green  soybeans  and  blackeyes  and  other  green 
cowpeas  harvested  for  sale  as  vegetables  and  not  as  annual 
legumes. 

Hay  Crops. — Data  for  the  total  acres  of  land  from  which  hay 
was  cut  exclude  the  acreage  in  sorghum,  soybean,  cowpea,  and 
peanut  hays.  These  crops  were  reported  in  separate  questions 
in  the  States  where  they  are  important.  To  obtain  the  total 
acres  from  which  other  hays  were  cut,  the  acres  of  the  various 
hay  crops,  including  grass  silage,  were  added  together  for  each 
county.  The  corresponding  totals  for  1954  were  obtained  by 
the  same  pi-ocedure.  For  the  1950  census,  however,  the  totals 
were  based  on  farmers'  own  reports  of  their  total  acreage  in 
harvested  hay  crops. 

The  questionnaire  contained  an  instruction  that  if  two  or  more 
cuttings  were  made  from  the  same  land,  the  total  production 
from  all  cuttings  was  to  be  reported  but  the  acres  cut  were  to 
be  counted  only  once.  In  cases  where  both  hay  and  grass  silage 
were  cut  from  the  same  land,  the  total  acreage  was  to  be  reported 
for  both  crops.  In  1959,  as  in  1954,  alfalfa  hay  included  alfalfa 
and  alfalfa  mixtures  for  hay  and  for  dehydrating;  clover  and 
timothy  hay  included  clover,  timothy,  and  mixtures  of  clover  and 
grasses ;  small  grain  hay  included  oats,  wheat,  barley,  rye,  or 
other  small  grains  cut  for  hay.  The  hay  crops  listed  on  the 
questionnaire  varied  somewhat  from  one  State  or  region  to 
another.  The  kinds  of  hay  to  be  included  in  separate  questions 
can  be  determined  for  a  specific  State  from  reference  to  the 
facsimile  of  the  questionnaire  that  is  in  the  appendix. 

The  tonnage  of  hay,  including  alfalfa  hay  for  dehydrating,  is 
given  on  a  dry-weight  basis.  Prior  to  tabulation,  production 
reported  in  green  weight  was  converted  to  its  dry-weight  equiv- 
alent by  dividing  by  3.  However,  the  production  of  grass  silage 
is  given  in  terms  of  green  weight.   | 

Field  Seed  Crops.— The  field  seed  crops  listed  on  each  version 
of  the  questionnaire  were  limited  to  those  considered  most  im- 
portant within  the  given  State.  Each  version  of  the  question- 
naire contained  space  for  listing  other  field  seed  crops  in  order 
to  facilitate  the  reporting  of  all  field  seed  crops  harvested. 
Quantity  harvested  was  to  be  reported  in  terms  of  clean  seed 
for  most  field  seed  crops.  Bluegrass,  or  Junegrass  seed,  was  to 
be  reported  in  terms  of  green  seed  for  Iowa,  Kansas,  Kentucky, 
Minnesota,  Missouri,  Nebraska,  North  Dakota,  South  Dakota,  and 
Tennessee.  No  mention  was  made  of  "green-weight  basis"  for 
other  States  where  this  crop  was  to  be  reported  in  the  "All  other" 
question. 

Irish  Potatoes  and  Sweetpotatoes. — For  Irish  potatoes  and 
sweetpotatoes  (including  yams),  the  total  quantity  harvested  was 
to  be  reported  for  each  crop  in  all  cases,  whether  harvested  for 


home  use  or  for  sale  or  whether  used  for  livestock  feed.  The 
acreage  harvested  was  to  be  reported  for  each  crop  only  in  cases 
where  the  quantity  amounted  to  20  or  more  bushels  (or  the 
approximate  equivalent  in  terms  of  hundredweights,  barrels,  or 
pounds,  as  explained  on  different  versions  of  the  questionnaire). 
This  method  of  reporting  was  designed  to  facilitate  the  enumera- 
tion of  potatoes  harvested  on  small  plots  for  home  use.  Essen- 
tially the  same  procedure  was  followed  in  both  1954  and  1950. 
In  earlier  censuses,  however,  the  acreage  of  Irish  potatoes  and 
sweetpotatoes  was  to  be  reported  in  all  eases,  even  when  produc- 
tion was  solely  for  home  use.  Therefore,  the  data  on  acres  for 
censuses  prior  to  1950  are  not  fully  comparable  with  those  for 
the  last  three  censuses,  especially  in  counties  or  States  where 
production  is  largely  for  home  use. 

The  unit  of  measure  in  which  quantity  was  to  be  reported 
varied  from  one  State  or  region  to  another  to  correspond  with 
the  units  most  commonly  used  in  a  given  area.  In  27  States, 
the  questionnaire  provided  a  choice  for  reporting  either  bushels 
or  100-pound  bags  (hundredweights).  The  published  data  for 
counties  and  States  are  in  terms  of  bushels. 

Berries  and  Other  Small  Fruits.— The  question  for  berries  and 
other  small  fruits  related  specifically  to  the  acreages  and  quanti- 
ties harvested  for  sale.  Only  tame  or  cultivated  berries  were  to 
be  reported  except  for  the  New  England  States,  where  wild  blue- 
berries were  also  to  be  included.  Enumerators  were  instructed 
always  to  report  the  total  quantity  of  each  kind  of  berry  har- 
vested for  sale  but  to  report  the  area  harvested  only  when  It 
amounted  to  one-tenth  acre  or  more.  Nonbearing  areas  and  areas 
and  quantities  harvested  for  home  use  were  to  be  excluded.  The 
data  for  1959  and  1954  are  fully  comparable. 

Tree  Fruits,  Nuts,  and  Grapes. — In  1959,  as  in  1954,  fruit  trees, 
nut  trees,  and  grapevines  were  not  enumerated  for  farms  having 
a  combined  total  of  less  than  20  at  the  time  of  enumeration. 
Both  bearing  and  nonbearing  trees  and  vines  were  to  be  included 
but  not  any  that  had  been  abandoned.  For  censuses  prior  to 
1954,  all  fruit  or  nut  trees  and  grapevines  on  the  farm  were 
to  be  enumerated,  regardless  of  the  number.  Because  of  this 
change  in  enumeration  procedure,  the  data  for  1959  and  1954 
are  not  fully  comparable  with  those  for  earlier  censuses.  In 
commercial  fruit-producing  counties,  the  change  in  procedure 
may  have  had  a  considerable  effect  on  the  number  of  farms  re- 
porting without  causing  any  significant  changes  in  the  number 
of  trees  and  vines  nor  in  the  quantity  harvested.  In  counties 
where  most  of  the  trees  or  vines  are  in  small  plantings  and 
where  production  is  largely  for  home-use,  however,  the  change 
may  have  caused  a  significant  reduction  not  only  in  the  number 
of  farms  reporting  but  also  in  the  number  of  trees  and  vines  and 
in  the  quantity  harvested. 

In  both  1959  and  1954,  the  area  in  fruit  orchards,  groves, 
vineyards,  and  planted  nut  trees  was  enumerated  when  there 
were  20  or  more  fruit  trees,  nut  trees,  and  grapevines.  In 
1950,  the  corresponding  area  was  enumerated  only  if  it  amounted 
to  one-half  acre  or  more.  In  censuses  prior  to  1950,  the  area  was 
to  be  reported  regardless  of  its  size  or  of  the  number  of  trees 
and  vines.  Enumerators  frequently  omitted  the  fractional  acre- 
ages in  small  plantings  and  home  orchards,  however.  In  some 
counties,  small  plantings  or  home  orchards  comprise  a  sizeable 
proportion  of  the  total  fruit  and  nut  acreage.  For  those 
counties,  the  change  from  one  census  to  another  in  acreage  of 
land  in  fruits  and  nuts  may  not  be  due  to  fact  but  merely  to 
differences  in  enumeration. 

In  1959,  California  was  the  only  State  for  which  the  acreage 
in  each  individual  fruit  and  nut  crop  was  obtained.  In  1954, 
such  acreage  was  also  obtained  for  Arizona.  In  all  States,  the 
number  of  bearing  and  nonbearing  trees  or  vines  on  the  farm  at 
the  time  of  enumeration  and  the  quantity  harvested  in  1959 
were  to  be  reported  separately  for  each  fruit  and  nut  crop.  ( Ex- 
ceptions in  the  harvest  period  for  citrus  fruits,  avocados,  and 


INTRODUCTION

olives  are  described  on  p.  XIX.)  The  unit  of  measure  in  which 
quantities  were  to  be  reported  varied  from  one  State  to  another. 
Tables  in  this  report  show  quantities  in  the  unit  of  measure 
appearing  on  the  1959  questionnaire  used  in  the  State. 

Nursery  and  Greenhouse  Products. — The  questions  about  nursery 
and  greenhouse  products  related  only  to  products  grown  on  the 
place  for  sale.  Crops  bought  for  resale  without  additional  cul- 
tivation were  to  be  excluded.  The  area  used  for  growing  and 
the  value  of  sales  were  to  be  reported  separately  for  each  of 
three  groups,  as  follows : 

a.  Nursery  products,   (trees,  shrubs,  vines,  and  ornamentals). 

b.  Cut  flowers,  potted  plants,  florist  greens,  and  bedding  plants. 
For  these  items,  the  area  grown  in  the  open  was  to  be  re- 
ported separately  from  the  area  grown  under  glass. 

c.  Vegetables  grown  under  glass,  flower  seeds,  vegetable  seeds, 
vegetable  plants,  bulbs,  and  mushrooms.  For  these  items, 
the  area  grown  in  the  open  was  to  be  reported  separately 
from  the  area  grown  under  glass  or  in  the  house. 

The  data  obtained  for  1959  are  comparable  with  those  for 
1954  and  1950  since  the  questions  asked  were  essentially  the 
same  in  the  three  censuses.  Detailed  data  regarding  the  pro- 
duction and  sale  of  nursery,  greenhouse,  and  other  horticultural 
products  on  farms  having  sales  of  $2,000  will  be  published  in 
volume  V,  part  1. 

Forest  Products. — The  forest  products  data  obtained  in  the 
Census  of  Agriculture  relate  only  to  the  products  cut  on  farms. 
Commercial  logging,  timber  operations,  and  forest  products  grown 
or  cut  on  nonfarm  places  are  excluded.  Therefore,  the  data  in 
this  report  do  not  represent  the  total  forestry  output  or  income 
for  a  county  or  State. 

The  questions  included  on  the  1959  agriculture  questionnaire 
are  more  detailed  than  those  asked  in  the  1954  Census.  Value 
was  obtained  for  the  sale  of  standing  timber  or  trees  and  for 
the  sale  of  poles  and  piling,  bark,  bolts,  and  mine  timbers.  The 
quantity  cut,  whether  for  home  use  or  sale,  and  the  quantity  sold 
were  obtained  for  individual  forestry  products  such  as  firewood 
and  f  uelwood,  fence  posts,  sawlogs  and  veneer  logs.  Data  relating 
to  pulpwood,  Christmas  trees,  maple  trees,  and  maple  syrup  were 
obtained  in  States  where  such  products  are  important 
commercially. 

Value  of  Crops  Harvested.— The  total  value  of  crops  harvested 
represents  the  estimated  value  of  all  crops  harvested  during  the 
crop  year  1959.  It  includes  the  value  of  quantities  consumed 
on  farms  as  food,  feed,  seed,  etc.,  as  well  as  quantities  sold. 
Farmers  were  not  asked  to  report  values  of  crops  harvested ; 
the  values  were  calculated  in  the  Processing  Office.  For  individ- 
ual crops,  the  quantity  harvested  was  multiplied  by  the  average 
price  at  which  the  crop  was  sold  in  the  State.  State  average 
prices  were  furnished  to  the  Bureau  of  the  Census  by  the  Agricul- 
tural Marketing  Service  of  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture. 
They  are  based  on  reports  received  from  a  sample  of  farmers  and 
dealers.  Quantities  harvested  were  not  obtained  for  vegetables 
nor  for  nursery  and  greenhouse  products.  Therefore,  for  those 
crops,  the  value  of  sales,  as  obtained  in  the  enumeration,  was  used 
in  the  calculation  of  total  value  of  crops  harvested. 

Value  of  Crops  Sold. — The  questionnaire  required  value  of  sales 
of  crops  to  be  reported  only  for  total  vegetables,  nursery  and 
greenhouse  products,  and  certain  forest  products.  For  all  other 
crops,  the  value  of  sales  was  calculated  on  a  county  level  during 
processing  operations  by  multiplying  the  State  average  prices 
by  either  the  quantity  sold  or  the  quantity  harvested.  Reports 
of  quantity  sold  were  obtained  during  the  enumeration  only  for 
some  of  the  major  field  crops.  Quantity  harvested  was  used  in 
the  calculation  of  value  of  crops  sold  for  such  crops  as  cotton, 
tobacco,  etc.,  that  are  customarily  grown  for  sale.  The  procedures 
used  for  the  various  crops  are  described  on  page  XXV.    They 


are  similar  to  the  procedures  followed  in  1954.    In  1950,  values 
of  crops  sold  were  obtained  for  each  farm  during  the  enumeration.

Definition  of  Irrigated  Land. — Irrigated  land  is  defined  as  land 
watered  for  agricultural  purposes  by  artificial  means.  These 
means  included  subirrigation  as  well  as  systems  whereby  water 
was  applied  to  the  ground  surface,  either  directly  or  by  sprinklers. 
Land  flooded  for  rice  cultivation  was  considered  as  irrigated. 
Land  flooded  during  high-water  periods  was  to  be  included  as 
irrigated  only  if  water  was  directed  to  agricultural  use  by  dams, 
canals,  or  other  works.  The  definition  of  irrigated  land  specif- 
ically excluded  land  where  the  "water  table",  or  natural  level 
of  underground  water,  was  controlled  by  drainage  works  with  no 
additional  water  brought  in  by  canals  or  pipes. 

Enumeration  of  Irrigated  Land. — A  question  on  total  land  irri- 
gated was  asked  in  all  States,  with  the  exception  of  Alaska.  The 
acreage  reported  for  this  question  includes  not  only  irrigated 
cropland  but  also  any  other  land  that  was  irrigated  in  1959. 

The  questionnaires  used  in  the  17  Western  States,  Louisiana, 
and  Hawaii  included  several  additional  questions  regarding  irri- 
gation. These  questions  related  to  the  acreage  of  land  irrigated 
by  sprinklers,  irrigated  land  from  which  crops  were  harvested, 
specific  crops  irrigated,  and  source  of  irrigation  water.  Such 
additional  data,  for  irrigated  farms,  are  presented  in  county 
table  la  for  these  States. 

Statistics  on  the  irrigation  enterprises  which  supplied  irriga- 
tion water  were  collected  in  the  1959  Census  of  Irrigation  and 
are  published  in  Volume  III,  "Irrigation  of  Agricultural  Lands". 
This  report  contains  a  considerable  amount  of  data  about  irri- 
gation for  the  17  Western  States  and  Louisiana. 

Irrigated  Farms. — All  farms  reporting  any  land  irrigated  in 
1959  are  counted  as  irrigated  farms. 

Land  in  Irrigated  Farms.— Data  for  land  in  irrigated  farms  ac- 
cording to  use  relate  to  the  entire  acreage  in  these  farms,  in- 
cluding land  that  was  not  irrigated. 

Land  Irrigated. — Data  for  land  irrigated  relate  only  to  that 
part  of  the  land  in  irrigated  farms  that  was  watered  by  artificial 
means  at  any  time  in  1959.  Separate  figures  are  given  for  farms 
reporting  land  irrigated  by  sprinklers  whether  or  not  the  land 
was  also  irrigated  by  other  means.  Additional  figures  are  given 
for  farms  reporting  land  irrigated  by  sprinklers  only.  Data 
on  sprinkler  irrigation  were  not  obtained  in  the  1954  census. 

Irrigated  Cropland  Harvested. — The  data  for  irrigated  crop- 
land harvested  relate  to  all  irrigated  land  from  which  crops 
were  harvested  in  1959,  regardless  of  the  method  of  irrigation. 
An  instruction  on  the  questionnaire  reminded  enumerators  and 
respondents  to  include  irrigated  land  from  which  hay  was  cut, 
irrigated  land  in  both  bearing  and  nonbearing  fruit  and  nut 
crops,  and  irrigated  land  from  which  volunteer  crops  were 
harvested.  Each  irrigated  acre  was  to  be  reported  only  once, 
regardless  of  how  many  crops  were  harvested  from  it. 

Other  Irrigated  Land. — This  classification  was  obtained  by 
subtraction  of  the  acreage  of  irrigated  cropland  harvested 
from  the  acreage  of  total  land  irrigated.  It  represents  primarily 
irrigated  cropland  not  harvested  and  irrigated  pasture  or 
grazing  land. 

Farms  Irrigated  By  Number  of  Acres  Irrigated. — All  farms  on 
which  any  land  was  irrigated  in  1959  are  classified  according 
to  the  number  of  acres  irrigated  in  county  table  la  for  the  17 
Western  States,  Louisiana,  and  Hawaii.  This  classification  is 
based  on  total  land  irrigated.  Therefore,  it  includes  not  only  the 
irrigated  land  from  which  crops  were  harvested  but  also  all  other 
irrigated  land,  regardless  of  use. 

Land  Irrigated  By  Source  of  Water. — The  agriculture  question- 
naire contained  a  question  as  to  what  proportion  of  irrigated 
water  used  on  the  farm  in  1959  was  obtained  from  ground- 
water, surface-water,  and  irrigation-organization  sources.  Re- 
spondents were  asked  to  report  separately  the  percentage  cf 


XXII 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE:  1959 


water  obtained  from  each  source.  The  number  of  acres  that 
were  irrigated  by  water  from  each  source  or  combination  of 
sources  was  calculated  during  office  processing  operations  by 
applying  the  percentages  to  the  total  land  irrigated. 

Ground-water  sources  relate  to  wells  (pumped  or  flowing)  and 
springs ;  surface-water  sources  relate  to  streams,  lakes,  reservoirs, 
and  sewage  and  drainage  ditches.  For  each  of  these  sources, 
only  water  obtained  by  pumps  or  other  works  operated  as  part 
of  the  operator's  own  farm  or  as  part  of  another  single  farm  was 
to  be  Included.  Irrigation-organization  sources  relate  to  irriga- 
tion enterprises  organized  to  supply  water  to  a  group  of  farms, 
regardless  of  how  or  where  the  enterprise  obtained  the  water. 
The  irrigation  enterprise  may  be  a  legal  organization  or  a  group 
of  farmers  informally  organized  to  operate  a  supply  ditch  or 
other  works  to  provide  water  for  their  own  farms. 

Land-Use  Practices 

Summary  Information. — The  1959  data  for  land-use  practices 
are  estimates  based  on  reports  obtained  from  only  a  sample  of 
farms.  Comparable  data  are  not  presented  for  1954  because 
questions  about  land-use  practices  were  included  on  the  1954 
questionnaire  for  only  a  limited  number  of  States.  The  various 
land-use  practices  relate  to  methods  for  reducing  soil  erosion, 
either  by  improving  the  soil,  controlling  the  run-off  of  water,  or 
reducing  the  blowing  of  topsoil. 

Cropland  in  Cover  Crops. — The  data  relate  to  land  on  which 
cover  crops  were  turned  under  for  green  manure  in  1959  and 
which  was  then  planted  to  another  crop.  The  entire  acreage  of 
cover  crops  so  used  was  to  be  reported  even  if  the  following  crop 
failed. 

Cropland  Used  for  Grain  or  Bow  Crops  Farmed  on  the  Contour. — 
This  item  relates  to  land  on  which  grain  or  row  crops  were 
planted  in  level  rows  around  the  slope  of  a  hill. 

land  in  Strip-Cropping  Systems  for  Soil-Erosion  Control. — Strip- 
cropping  was  defined  as  the  practice  of  alternating  close-sown 
crops  with  strips  or  bands  of  row  crops  or  of  alternating  either 
close-sown  or  row  crops  with  bands  of  cultivated  fallow  land. 
The  published  data  refer  to  the  total  acreage  of  all  fields  and 
tracts  in  which  strip-cropping  was  practiced  in  1959. 

System  of  Terraces  on  Crop  and  Pasture  Land. — This  item  re- 
lates to  the  acreage  in  ridge-type  or  channel-type  terraces  con- 
structed on  sloping  cropland  and  pastureland. 

Livestock  and  Poultry 

Inventories. — Data  for  livestock  and  poultry  on  farms  relate 
to  the  number  on  hand  at  the  time  of  enumeration.  All  live- 
stock and  poultry,  including  those  being  kept  or  fed  under  con- 
tract, were  to  be  enumerated  on  the  farm  or  ranch  where  they 
were,  regardless  of  who  owned  them.  Livestock  in  transit  from 
one  grazing  area  to  another  or  grazing  in  national  forests,  graz- 
ing districts,  open  range,  or  on  land  used  under  permit  were  to  be 
reported  as  being  on  the  place  where  the  person  who  had  control 
over  them  had  his  headquarters. 

The  time  of  year  at  which  livestock  and  poultry  are  enumerated 
affects  the  data.  Therefore,  the  date  of  enumeration  needs  to 
be  considered  when  totals  for  the  various  censuses  are  compared. 
Both  the  1959  and  the  1954  census  data  represent  fall  inven- 
tories. These  censuses  came  at  a  time  of  large-scale  movement 
of  flocks  and  herds  from  one  range  to  another,  from  ranch  to 
feed  lot,  and  from  farm  or  ranch  to  market. 

The  censuses  of  1920,  1925,  1935,  and  1945  were  taken  as  of 
January  1  and  those  of  1930,  1940,  and  1950,  as  of  April  1.  A 
count  made  in  April  varies  considerably  from  one  made  in  Jan- 
uary. In  most  areas  a  large  number  of  animals  are  born  between 
January  and  April.  A  considerable  number  of  older  animals  die 
or  are  sold  during  the  same  period.    In  the  range  States,  along 


with  the  change  in  season  and  grazing  condition,  sheep  and  cattle 
are  moved  from  one  locality  or  county  to  another.  This  movement 
may  affect  the  comparability  of  data  for  counties  and,  in  some 
cases,  for  States.  The  comparability  of  data  by  age  has  been 
affected  also  by  changes  in  the  questions  from  one  census  to 
another. 

Milk  Cows,  Cows  Milked,  Milk  Produced,  and  Butter. — Data  on 
the  number  of  milk  cows,  cows  milked,  and  milked  produced  relate 
to  the  day  preceding  the  enumeration.  Data  for  butter  churned 
were  obtained  only  for  14  States  and  relate  to  the  calendar  week 
preceding  the  enumeration.  The  data  for  cows  milked  yesterday 
and  milk  produced  yesterday  are  not  given  in  this  volume.  These 
figures  were  obtained  primarily  to  serve  the  needs  of  the  U.S. 
Department  of  Agriculture  in  making  monthly  and  annual  esti- 
mates of  milk  production.  These  figures  can  be  made  available, 
at  a  small  cost,  to  others  who  express  an  interest  in  them. 

Whole  Milk  and  Cream  Sold. — Data  for  whole  milk  and  cream 
sold  relate  to  the  entire  year  1959  and  are  estimates  based  on 
reports  obtained  for  farms  in  the  sample.  All  milk  and  cream 
sold  from  the  farm  (except  quantities  purchased  from  some 
other  place  and  then  resold)  were  to  be  included,  regardless 
of  who  shared  the  receipts.  The  questionnaire  provided  three 
alternative  units  of  measure  for  reporting  the  quantity  of  milk 
sold — pounds  of  milk,  gallons  of  milk,  and  pounds  of  butterfat. 
The  respondent  was  thus  permitted  to  report  quantity  according 
to  the  unit  of  measure  in  which  payment  was  received.  In  the 
State  and  county  tables,  the  data  for  milk  are  given  in  the  unit 
of  measure  most  commonly  used  in  the  State.  Pounds  of  butter- 
fat  were  converted  into  gallons  or  pounds  of  whole  milk  on  the 
basis  of  the  average  butterfat  content  of  milk  as  shown  by  data 
furnished  by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of  the  U.S. 
Department  of  Agriculture. 

Sows  and  Gilts  Farrowing. — In  the  1959  census,  data  were  ob- 
tained for  the  number  of  litters  farrowed  between  December  1, 
1958,  and  June  1, 1959,  and  from  June  1  to  December  1, 1959.  In 
the  1954  census,  data  were  obtained  for  the  sows  and  gilts  that 
farrowed  rather  than  for  the  number  of  litters. 

Sheep,  lambs,  and  Wool. — In  the  1959  census,  questions  about 
sheep,  lambs,  and  wool  were  asked  in  all  States.  Data  on 
shearings  and  on  amount  of  wool  shorn  were  obtained  for  lambs 
and  sheep  separately.  In  the  1954  census,  sheep  and  lamb  inven- 
tories were  not  obtained  for  Florida,  Georgia,  and  South  Carolina. 

Goats  and  Mohair. — In  1959,  questions  on  goats,  kids,  and  mo- 
hair appeared  on  the  questionnaires  for  the  following  nine  States : 
Arizona,  California,  Missouri,  Nevada,  New  Mexico,  Oklahoma, 
Oregon,  Texas,  and  Utah.  In  1954,  corresponding  data  were  ob- 
tained for  Louisiana,  New  Mexico,  Oklahoma,  Oregon,  Texas, 
Washington,  and  selected  counties  in  Missouri. 

Bees  and  Honey. — No  questions  on  bees  and  honey  were  in- 
cluded on  the  questionnaires  for  either  the  1959  or  the  1954 
census.  In  1959,  however,  enumerators  were  instructed  to  ob- 
tain agriculture  questionnaires  for  places  not  having  agricultural 
operations  if  they  were  engaged  in  beekeeping.  The  number  of 
hives  of  bees  and  the  amount  of  honey  sold  were  to  be  reported 
In  the  "Remarks"  space  of  the  questionnaire.  Data  for  bees 
and  honey  are  not  included  in  this  report. 

Value  of  Livestock  on  Farms. — To  obtain  the  value  of  livestock 
on  farms,  the  number  of  each  class  of  livestock  or  poultry  on  hand 
was  multiplied  by  the  State  average  price  for  1959,  as  furnished 
by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of  the  U.S.  Department  of 
Agriculture.  Comparable  data  for  1954  were  compiled  by  the 
same  method  on  the  basis  of  average  prices  for  that  year. 

Sales  of  Live  Animals. — Data  for  the  number  and  value  of  ani- 
mals sold  alive  in  1959  are  estimates  based  on  reports  for  sample 
farms  only.  Corresponding  data  for  1954  were  obtained  for  all 
farms.    The  dollar  value  of  sales  was  obtained  from  the  farmer

for  cattle,  calves,  and  horses  and  mules.  Average  value  per  head 
for  other  livestock  sold  was  obtained  from  the  U.S.  Department 
of  Agriculture.  In  the  1959  census,  respondents  were  asked  to 
report  separately  the  number  of  live  animals  already  sold  and  the 
number  estimated  to  be  sold  between  the  time  of  enumeration  and 
the  end  of  the  year.  This  separation  of  reports  for  the  number 
sold  and  to  be  sold  was  designed  to  assure  more  complete  coverage 
of  all  livestock  sales  made  during  the  year.  In  the  1954  census, 
only  totals  for  the  entire  year  were  obtained  though  reference 
was  made  to  animals  to  be  sold  between  enumeration  and  the  end 
of  the  year. 

Sales  of  Poultry  and  Poultry  Products. — For  both  the  1959  and 
the  1954  Censuses,  sales  of  chickens  were  obtained  for  two  groups : 
(1)  broilers  and  (2)  other  chickens.  The  enumeration  of  broiler 
sales  presents  problems  arising  from  the  varied  contractual  ar- 
rangements under  which  broilers  are  produced.  The  question- 
naire contained  an  Instruction  to  the  effect  that  all  broilers  grown 
for  others  under  contract  were  to  be  reported  as  sold.  During 
office  processing  operations,  the  data  reported  for  inventories  and 
sales  of  chickens  four  months  old  and  over,  chicken  eggs  sold,  and 
broilers  sold  were  carefully  examined.  Obvious  inconsistencies 
indicating  confusion  between  broilers  and  other  chickens  were 
corrected  on  the  basis  of  estimated  values  and,  for  sample  farms, 
on  the  basis  of  data  reported  for  expenditures  for  feed,  poultry 
and  livestock  purchases,  hired  labor,  etc. 

Questions  relating  to  poultry  other  than  chickens  (and  broilers) 
were  generally  the  same  in  1959  as  in  1954.  In  the  1959  census, 
however,  only  total  numbers  were  obtained  for  turkeys  and  turkey 
fryers  raised  and  for  turkey  hens  kept  for  breeding  whereas  the 
1954  questionnaire  asked  for  a  breakdown  between  light  and  heavy 
breeds.  Also,  for  poultry  other  than  chickens  and  turkeys,  the 
1959  census  obtained  the  number  sold  whereas  the  1954  census 
obtained  the  number  raised. 

Classification  of  Farms 

Scope  of  Classification. — Data  for  land  in  farms,  and  for  crop- 
land harvested  in  farms  classified  by  size,  by  color  of  operator  and 
by  tenure  of  operator  were  tabulated  for  all  farms.  However, 
most  of  the  detailed  data  by  size  of  farm,  by  color  of  operator,  by 
tenure  of  operator,  by  economic  class,  and  by  type  of  farm  are 
estimates  based  on  farms  in  the  sample.  The  farm  classifications 
by  size  of  farm,  color  of  operator,  tenure  of  operator,  economic 
class  of  farm,  and  type  of  farm  were  made  in  the  processing 
office  on  the  basis  of  data  reported  on  each  questionnaire. 

Farms  by  Size. — Farms  were  classified  by  size  according  to  the 
total  land  area  established  for  each  farm.  The  same  classifica- 
tion was  used  for  all  States.  According  to  definition,  a  farm  is 
essentially  an  operating  unit,  not  an  ownership  tract.  All  land 
operated  by  one  person  or  partnership  represents  one  farm.  In 
the  case  of  a  landlord  who  has  assigned  land  to  croppers  or  other 
tenants,  the  land  assigned  to  each  cropper  or  tenant  is  considered 
a  separate  farm  even  though  the  landlord  may  operate  the  entire 
landholding  as  one  unit  in  respect  to  supervision,  equipment,  rota- 
tion practice,  purchase  of  supplies,  or  sale  of  products.  In  some 
parts  of  the  South,  a  special  Landlord-Tenant  Questionnaire  was 
used  to  assure  an  accurate  enumeration  of  each  unit  within  a 
multiple-unit  operation.  A  change  was  made  in  the  size  classifica- 
tion for  1959,  as  contrasted  with  several  preceding  years,  by  sub- 
dividing the  1,000-acre-and-over  group  and  by  combining  two 
previously  recognized  groups,  viz.,  10  to  29  acres  and  30  to  49 
acres. 

Farms  by  Color  of  Operator. — Farms  were  classified  by  color  of 
operator  into  two  groups,  "white"  and  "nonwhite."  "Nonwhite" 
includes  primarily  Negro  and  Indian  operators  but  also  some  of 
other  racial  origin. 

Enumerators  were  instructed  to  report  the  race  on  the  basis  of 
their  own  observation  whenever  possible  rather  than  by  asking  the 
respondent. 


Farms  by  Tenure  of  Operator. — The  classification  of  farms  by 
tenure  of  operator  was  based  on  data  reported  for  land  owned, 
land  rented  from  others  or  worked  for  others  on  shares,  land 
managed  for  others,  and  land  rented  to  others  or  worked  on  shares 
by  others.  The  same  basis  of  classification  was  used  in  1959 
as  in  1954. 

For  1959,  each  questionnaire  was  coded,  during  the  editing  proc- 
ess, to  indicate  whether  it  represented  a  farm  operated  by  a  full 
owner,  part  owner,  manager,  or  tenant.  The  sample  question- 
naires for  tenants  were  given  a  code  to  indicate  the  kind  of 
tenant. 

The  various  classifications  of  tenure,  as  used  for  the  1959  census, 
are  defined  below : 

a.  Full  Owners  operate  only  land  they  own. 

b.  Part  Owners  operate  land  they  own  and  also  land  rented 
from  others. 

c.  Managers  operate  land  for  others  and  are  paid  a  wage  or 
salary  for  their  services.  Persons  acting  merely  as  care- 
takers or  hired  as  laborers  are  not  classified  as  managers.  If 
a  farm  operator  managed  land  for  others  and  also  operated 
land  on  his  own  account,  the  land  operated  on  his  own  ac- 
count was  considered  as  one  farm  and  the  land  managed  for 
others  as  a  second  farm.  If,  however,  he  managed  land  for 
two  or  more  employers,  all  the  managed  land  was  considered 
to  be  one  farm. 

d.  Tenants  rent  from  others  or  work  on  shares  for  others  all 
the  land  they  operate.  They  are  further  classified,  as  de- 
scribed below,  on  the  basis  of  rental  arrangements  in  regard 
to  the  payment  of  cash  rent,  sharing  of  crops,  sharing  of 
livestock  or  livestock  products,  and  the  furnishing  of  work 
power  by  the  landlord. 

(1)  Cash  Tenants  pay  cash  rent,  either  on  a  per-acre  basis  or 
for  the  farm  as  a  whole. 

(2)  Share-Cash  Tenants  pay  part  of  the  rent  In  cash  and  part 
in  a  share  of  the  crops  and/or  of  the  livestock  and  livestock 
products. 

(3)  Crop-Share  Tenants  pay  a  share  of  the  crops  but  not  of  the 
livestock  or  livestock  products. 

(4)  Livestock-Share  Tenants  pay  a  share  of  the  livestock  or 
livestock  products.  They  may  or  may  not  also  pay  a  share  of 
the  crops. 

(5)  Croppers  are  tenants  whose  landlords  furnished  all  the 
work  animals  or  tractor  power.  They  usually  work  under 
the  close  supervision  of  the  landowners  or  their  agents,  or 
other  farm  operators.  Also,  the  land  assigned  to  them  is 
often  merely  a  part  of  a  multi-unit  operation.  Croppers  may 
or  may  not  also  pay  cash  rent  or  a  share  of  crops,  livestock, 
or  livestock  products.  Data  for  croppers  are  available  for 
only  16  southern  States  and  Missouri. 

(6)  Other  Tenants  are  those  who  did  not  qualify  for  inclusion 
in  any  of  the  foregoing  subclassifications.  They  may  have 
had  the  use  of  land  rent-free  or  in  return  for  a  fixed  quantity 
of  products,  payment  of  taxes,  maintenance  of  buildings,  etc. 

(7)  Unspecified  Tenants  are  those  for  whom  the  rental  arrange- 
ment was  not  reported. 

The  definition  of  each  subclass  of  tenant  was  essentially  the 
same  for  earlier  censuses  as  for  1959.  In  1945,  however,  the 
enumerator  was  asked  to  determine  the  subclass  of  tenants 
whereas  in  other  censuses  all  classifications  were  made  during 
the  processing  of  questionnaires  on  the  basis  of  the  data 
reported.  The  procedure  used  in  1945  may  have  affected  the 
comparability  of  the  data,  especially  for  cash  tenants  and 
share-cash  tenants. 

Farms  by  Economic  Class. — The  totals  for  farms  by  economic 
class  are  estimates  for  all  farms  made  on  the  basis  of  data  re- 
ported only  for  the  sample  farms.  The  economic  classifications 
represent  groupings  of  farms  that  are  similar  in  characteristics 
and  size  of  operation.  The  economic  classes  were  established  on 
the  basis  of  one  or  more  of  four  factors:  (1)  total  value  of  all 
farm  products  sold,  (2)  number  of  days  the  farm  operator  worked 
off  the  farm,  (3)  the  age  of  the  farm  operator,  and  (4)  the  re- 
lationship of  income  received  by  the  operator  and  members  of  his 
household  from  nonfarm  sources  to  the  value  of  all  farm  products 
sold.  Institutional  farms,  Indian  reservations,  agricultural  ex- 
periment stations,  and  grazing  associations  were  always  classified 
as  "abnormal." 


xxrv 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


The  total  value  of  farm  products  sold  was  obtained  by  addi- 
tion of  the  reported  or  estimated  values  for  all  products  sold  from 
the  farm.  The  value  of  cattle  and  calves,  horses  and  mules,  dairy 
products,  some  poultry  products,  vegetables,  nursery  and  green- 
house products,  standing  timber,  and  miscellaneous  forest  prod- 
ucts was  obtained  from  the  farm  operator  during  the  enumera- 
tion. The  quantity  sold  was  obtained  during  enumeration  for 
corn,  sorghums,  small  grains,  hay,  small  fruits,  some  of  the  for- 
est products,  chickens  and  chicken  eggs,  hogs,  sheep,  and  goats. 
To  obtain  the  value  of  sales  of  these  products,  the  quantity  sold 
was  multiplied  by  State  average  prices. 

For  each  of  the  other  products,  the  entire  production  was  mul- 
tiplied by  the  State  average  price.  If  the  resulting  value  amount- 
ed to  $100  or  more,  the  entire  quantity  produced  was  considered 
as  sold.  This  procedure  was  followed  only  in  establishing  the 
economic  class  and  the  type  of  farm  but  was  not  used  in  estab- 
lishing the  total  value  of  products  sold  from  the  farm.  (See 
p.  XXV.) 

Farms  were  grouped  into  two  major  categories,  commercial 
farms  and  other  farms,  mainly  on  the  basis  of  total  value  of  prod- 
ucts sold.  The  1959  class  intervals  and  some  of  the  criteria  for 
determination  of  a  given  class  are  different  from  those  used  in 
1954  and  in  1950.  In  general,  for  1959,  all  farms  with  a  value 
of  sales  amounting  to  $2,500  or  more  were  classified  as  commercial. 
Farms  with  a  value  of  sales  of  $50  to  $2,499  were  classified  as  com- 
mercial if  the  farm  operator  was  under  65  years  of  age  and  (1)  he 
did  not  work  off  the  farm  100  or  more  days  during  the  year  and 
(2)  the  income  received  by  the  operator  and  members  of  his 
family  from  nonfarm  sources  was  less  than  the  value  of  all  farm 
products  sold.  The  remaining  farms  with  a  value  of  sales  of  $50 
to  $2,499  and  institutional  farms  and  Indian  reservations  were 
included  in  one  of  the  groups  of  "other  farms." 

Commercial  farms  were  divided  into  six  economic  classes  on 
the  basis  of  the  total  value  of  all  farm  products  sold,  as 
follows : 

Value  of  Farm 
Class  of  Farm  Products  sold 

I $40,000  and  over 

II $20,000     to    $39,999 

III $10,000    to    $19,999 

IV $5,000    to      $9,999 

V $2,500    to      $4,999 

VI* $50    to      $2,499 

•Provided  the  farm  operator  was  under  65  years  of  age,  and — 

(1)  he  did  not  work  off  the  farm  100  or  more  days,  and  (2)  the  In- 
come that  he  and  members  of  his  household  received  from  nonfarm 
sources  was  less  than  the  total  value  of  farm  products  sold. 

Other  farms  were  divided  into  three  economic  classes  as 
follows : 

a.  Class  VII,  Part-time. — Farms  with  a  value  of  sales  of  farm 
products  of  $50  to  $2,499  were  classified  as  "part-time"  if 
the  operator  was  under  65  years  of  age  and  he  either  worked 
off  the  farm  100  or  more  days  or  the  income  he  and  members 
of  his  household  received  from  nonfarm  sources  was  greater 
than  the  total  value  of  farm  products  sold. 

b.  Class  VIII,  Part-retirement. — Farms  with  a  value  of  sales 
of  farm  products  of  $50  to  $2,499  were  classified  as  "part- 
retirement"  if  the  farm  operator  was  65  years  old  or  over. 
Many  of  these  are  farms  on  which  the  income  from  nonfarm 
sources  was  greater  than  the  value  of  sales  of  agricultural 
products.  Others  are  residential,  subsistence,  or  marginal 
farms.  In  previous  censuses,  the  age  of  the  farm  operator 
was  not  a  criterion  for  grouping  farms  by  economic  class. 
Since  the  number  of  elderly  people  in  our  population  has 
been  steadily  increasing  during  recent  years,  a  separate 
classification  for  farms  operated  on  a  part- retirement  basis 
was  considered  important  for  an  adequate  analysis  of  the 
agricultural  structure  of  a  county  or  State. 

c.  Class  IX,  Abnormal. — All  institutional  farms  and  Indian 
reservations  were  classified  as  "abnormal,"  regardless  of  the 
value  of  sales.     Institutional  farms  include  those  operated 


by   hospitals,   penitentiaries,   schools,   grazing  associations, 
government  agencies,  etc. 

Farms  by  Type.— The  data  for  farms  by  type  are  estimates 
based  on  data  tabulated  for  the  farms  in  the  sample.  The 
type  represents  a  description  of  the  major  source  of  income  from 
farm  sales.  To  be  classified  as  a  particular  type,  a  farm  had  to 
have  sales  of  a  particular  product  or  group  of  products  amounting 
in  value  to  50  percent  or  more  of  the  total  value  of  all  farm  prod- 
ucts sold  during  the  year. 

The  types  of  farms,  together  with  the  products  on  which  type 
classification  is  based,  are  as  follows: 


Type   of  Farm 


Cash-grain 


Tobacco  

Cotton 

Other  field-crop. 


Vegetable 

Fruit-and-nut 


Poultry  . 
Dairy  _ 


Livestock  other  than 
dairy  and  poultry 


Livestock  Ranches. 


GeneraL 


Miscellaneous- 


Source  of  Cash  Income 

(Products  with  sales  value  representing 
50%  or  more  of  total  value  of  all  farm 
products  sold) 

Corn,  sorghums,  small  grains,  soybeans 
for  beans,  cowpeas  for  peas,  dry  field 
and  seed  beans  and  peas. 

Tobacco. 

Cotton. 

Peanuts,  potatoes  (Irish  and  sweet), 
sugarcane  for  sugar  or  sirup,  sweet 
sorghums  for  sirup,  broomcorn,  pop- 
corn, sugar  beets,  mint,  hops,  and 
sugar  beet  seed. 

Vegetables. 

Berries,  other  small  fruits,  tree  fruits, 
grapes,  and  nuts. 

Chickens,  chicken  eggs,  turkeys,  and 
other  poultry  products. 

Milk  and  cream.  The  criterion  of  50 
percent  of  total  sales  was  modified  in 
the  case  of  dairy  farms.  A  farm  hav- 
ing value  of  sales  of  dairy  products 
amounting  to  less  than  50  percent  of 
the  total  value  of  farm  products  sold 
was  classified  as  a  dairy  farm,  if — 

(a)  Milk  and  cream  sold  accounted 
for  more  than  30  percent  of  the  total 
value  of  products  sold  and — 

(b)  Milk  cows  represented  50  percent 
or  more  of  total  cows  and — 

(c)  The  value  of  milk  and  cream  sold 
plus  the  value  of  cattle  and  calves 
sold  amounted  to  50  percent  or 
more  of  the  total  value  of  all  farm 
products  sold. 

Cattle,  calves,  hogs,  sheep,  goats,  wool 
and  mohair  except  for  farms  in  the  17 
Western  States,  Louisiana,  and 
Florida  that  qualified  as  livestock 
ranches. 

Farms  in  the  17  Western  States,  Louisi- 
ana, and  Florida  were  classified  as 
livestock  ranches  if  the  sales  of  live- 
stock, wool,  and  mohair  represented 
50  percent  or  more  of  the  total  value 
of  farm  products  sold  and  if  pasture- 
land  or  grazing  land  amounted  to  100 
or  more  acres  and  was  10  or  more 
times  the  acreage  of  cropland  har- 
vested. 

Field  seed  crops,  hay,  silage.  A  farm 
was  classified  as  general  also  if  it  had 
cash  income  from  three  or  more 
sources  and  did  not  meet  the  criteria 
for  any  other  type. 

Nursery  and  greenhouse  products,  forest 
products,  mules,  horses,  colts  and 
ponies.  Also  all  institutional  farms 
and  Indian  reservations. 


INTRODUCTION 


xxv 


The  type  classifications  were  essentially  the  same  for  the  1959 
as  for  the  1954  census  except  that  tobacco  farms  and  livestock 
ranches  were  not  separately  classified  in  1954.  Tobacco  was  in- 
cluded as  one  of  the  crops  used  in  the  classification  of  "other 
field  crop"  farms  in  1954.  The  farms  classified  as  livestock 
ranches  in  1959  would  have  been  classified  as  "livestock  other 
than  dairy  and  poultry"  in  1954  without  regard  to  the  acreage  in 
pasture. 

Value  of  Farm  Products  Sold. — Data  for  the  value  of  farm  prod- 
ucts sold  in  1959  were  obtained  by  enumeration  for  some  prod- 
ucts and  by  estimation  for  others.  The  questionnaire  used  for 
the  1959  census  provided  for  farm  operators  to  report  value  of 
sales  for  the  following  products : 

Vegetables  Miscellaneous  poultry  products 

Nursery  and  greenhouse  prod-  Milk  and  cream 

ucts  Cattle 

Standing  timber  Calves 

Miscellaneous  forest  products  Horses,  mules,  colts,  and  ponies 

For  all  other  agricultural  products,  the  value  of  sales  was  esti- 
mated during  the  office  processing.  The  State  average  prices 
used  for  calculating  the  value  of  farm  products  sold  were  fur- 
nished to  the  Bureau  by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of 
the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture.  One  of  three  following  pro- 
cedures was  used. 

(1)  For  the  products  for  which  data  on  quantities  sold  were 
obtained  during  enumeration,  the  State  average  prices  were  mul- 
tiplied by  the  county  totals  of  the  quantities  reported  as  sold  or 
the  quantities  reported  as  produced  for  sale.  The  following  prod- 
ucts were  covered  by  this  procedure : 

Corn  for  grain  Fence  posts 

Sorghums  for  grain,  seed,  sirup,    Sawlogs  and  veneer  logs 

or  dry  forage  Christmas  trees 

All  small  grains  Chickens  (broilers  and  others) 

Hay  crops  Chicken  eggs 

All  berries  and  small  fruits  *  Hogs  and  pigs 

Firewood  and  f  uelwood  Sheep  and  lambs 

Pulpwood  Goats  and  kids 

1  Adjustment  made  for  cranberries  based  on  Cranberry  Payment 
Program. 

(2)  For  most  of  the  agricultural  products  which  are  cus- 
tomarily raised  for  sale,  the  entire  quantity  produced  was 
considered  to  be  sold.  The  State  average  prices  were,  accordingly, 
multiplied  by  the  county  total  of  production.  The  following  crops 
were  covered  by  this  procedure : 


Cotton 

Popcorn 

Sugar  beets  for  sugar 

Broomcorn 


Sugarcane  for  sugar 

Tobacco 

Wool 

Mohair 


(3)  For  all  other  crops,  the  State  average  prices  were  mul- 
tiplied by  the  quantities  sold  as  estimated  on  the  basis  of  crop- 
disposition  data'furnished  by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service, 
data  reported  in  questions  for  "other  crops"  on  the  1959  question- 
naire, or  data  obtained  from  earlier  censuses. 

For  all  tree  fruits,  nuts,  and  grapes,  the  entire  quantity  pro- 
duced was  considered  as  sold,  except  for  apples,  apricots,  sour  and 
sweet  cherries,  peaches,  plums,  prunes,  avocados,  tangerines, 
oranges,  and  grapefruit  in  States  where  a  portion  of  the  crop 
was  not  harvested  or  was  subjected  to  excess  cullage  as  indicated 
by  data  obtained  from  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of 
the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture. 

The  data  for  1959  are  comparable  with  those  for  1954  since 
essentially  the  same  procedures  were  used  in  both  censuses  for 
estimating  quantities  and  values  of  farm  products  sold.  In  1959, 
as  in  1954,  data  for  the  sales  of  farm  products  represent  total 
sales  for  the  entire  farm,  regardless  of  who  shared  the  receipts. 
For  tenant-operated  farms,  the  landlord's  share  of  agricultural 
products  was  considered  as  sold  provided  the  products  were 
moved  off  the  tenant  farm.  All  crops,  livestock,  and  poultry 
raised  under  a  contract  arrangement  were  considered  as  sold 
from  the  farm  where  they  were  raised.  For  institutional  farms, 
all  agricultural  items  produced  on  land  operated  by  the  institu- 
tion and  consumed  by  the  inmates  were  to  be  reported  as  sold. 

All  sales  data  relate  to  one  year's  farm  operations.  Crop  sales 
are  for  crops  harvested  during  the  crop  year,  whether  the  crops 
were  actually  sold  immediately  after  harvest  or  placed  in  storage 
for  later  sale.  Sales  of  livestock  and  livestock  products  relate 
to  the  calendar  year,  regardless  of  when  the  livestock  or  prod- 
ucts were  raised  or  produced.  All  wool  and  mohair  reported 
as  shorn  or  clipped  was  considered  as  sold. 

Enumerators  were  instructed  to  record  gross  values  of  quanti- 
ties sold,  with  no  deductions  for  feed,  seed,  fertilizer,  water,  labor, 
or  marketing  costs.  For  some  products,  however,  net  values  may 
have  been  reported.  In  the  case  of  milk,  particularly,  some  farm 
operators  may  have  reported  the  payments  they  received  as  the 
gross  value  of  sales,  even  though  the  buyer  had  deducted  handling 
and  hauling  charges  before  making  payment.  Adjustments  were 
made  in  the  data  reported  only  in  cases  of  obvious  error.

Table  24.  If  the  estimated  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  constitutes  more  than  75  percent  of  all  farms  in  the  universe,  a  better  approximation  to  the  sampling  reliability 
may  be  obtained  by  multiplying  the  percent  given  in  the  table  as  follows : 

1.  When  the  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  is  75  percent  of  all  farms,  multiply  the  percent  error  by  0.50. 

2.  When  the  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  is  90  percent  of  all  farms,  multiply  the  percent  error  by  0.30. 

3.  When  the  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  is  95  percent  of  all  farms,  multiply  the  percent  error  by  0.20.

PREFACE 


Volume  I,  Counties,  is  one  of  the  five  principal  reports  presenting  the  results  of  the 
1959  Census  of  Agriculture.  This  volume,  in  54  parts,  presents  the  compilation  of  the  infor- 
mation given  by  farm  operators  to  census  enumerators  in  1959. 

The  1959  Census  of  Agriculture  was  taken  in  conformity  with  the  Act  of  Congress  of

INTRODUCTION 

THE  1959  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE 


History  of  the  Census. — The  1959  Census  is  the  17th  nationwide 
agricultural  census.  The  first  agricultural  census  was  taken  in 
1840,  at  the  same  time  as  the  Sixth  Decennial  Census  of  Popu- 
lation. From  1850  to  1920,  an  agricultural  census  was  taken 
every  10  years.  With  increased  application  of  scientific  findings 
and  the  growing  use  of  mechanization  in  agriculture,  farming 
practices  were  changing  so  rapidly  that  facts  collected  at  10-year 
intervals  were  no  longer  adequate.  Aware  of  the  need  for  more 
accurate  and  timely  information,  the  Congress  in  1909  (36  stat. 
10,  sec.  31,  provided  for  a  census  to  be  taken  in  1915  and  every 
10  years  thereafter  which  was  to  be  in  addition  to  the  census  of 
agriculture  to  be  taken  at  the  time  of  the  decennial  census  of 
population.  The  1915  census  was  not  taken,  however,  because 
of  the  abnormal  conditions  created  by  World  War  I.  Beginning 
with  1920,  a  national  agricultural  census  has  been  taken  every 
5  years. 

legal  Basis  for  the  Census. — The  1959  Census  of  Agriculture 
was  authorized  by  an  Act  of  Congress,  as  were  all  prior  censuses 
of  agriculture.  "Title  13,  United  States  Code-Census,"  codified  in 
August  1954,  and  amended  in  August  1957  and  September  1960, 
is  now  the  legal  basis  for  censuses  of  agriculture  and  other  cen- 
suses, and  surveys  conducted  by  the  Bureau  of  the  Census.  Sec- 
tion 142,  paragraph  (a),  of  Title  13  makes  provision  for  the 
Census  of  Agriculture.    It  reads  as  follows : 

"The  Secretary  shall,  beginning  in  the  month  of  October 
1959,  and  in  the  same  month  of  every  fifth  year  thereafter,  take 
a  census  of  agriculture,  provided  that  the  censuses  directed  to 
be  taken  in  October  1959  and  each  tenth  year  thereafter,  may, 
when  and  where  deemed  advisable  by  the  Secretary,  be  taken 
instead  in  conjunction  with  the  censuses  provided  in  section 
141  of  this  title."  (Section  141  relates  to  the  decennial  cen- 
suses of  population,  unemployment,  and  housing  to  be  taken 
as  of  the  first  day  of  April  of  each  decennial  year.)  Under 
authority  granted  by  Section  4  of  Title  13,  the  Secretary  of 
Commerce  delegated  "the  functions  and  duties  imposed  upon 
him  by  this  title"  to  the  Director  of  the  Bureau  of  the  Census. 

Pretest  of  the  1959  Census. — A  "pretest"  of  the  field  procedures 
of  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture  was  conducted  in  17  counties 
of  the  United  States  during  the  fall  of  1958.  The  purpose  of  the 
pretest  was  to  provide  the  Bureau  with  a  measure  of  the  effective- 
ness of  the  questions  and  procedures  planned  for  the  1959 
nationwide  census.  Three  versions  of  the  agriculture  question- 
naire— the  first  one  for  Northern  States,  the  second  for  Southern 
States,  and  the  third  for  Western  States — were  used  in  the  pre- 
test. Each  version  contained  questions  appropriate  to  the  type 
of  agriculture  in  the  part  of  the  country  where  it  was  used.  All 
major  aspects  of  field  forms  and  procedures,  from  the  hiring  and 
training  of  crew  leaders  and  enumerators  to  actual  interviews 
with  farm  operators,  were  given  a  "trial  run"  in  each  of  the  17 
counties.  Preliminary  versions  of  reporting  forms,  maps,  pay- 
roll records,  training  guides,  and  instruction  manuals  were  sub- 
jected to  actual  use  under  conditions  simulating  those  expected 
in  the  nationwide  enumeration  conducted  in  the  fall  of  1959. 

In  making  final  preparations  for  the  1959  census,  the  staff  of 
the  Bureau  drew  heavily  on  the  results  of  the  pretest,  as  well  as 
on  experience  gained  from  previous  censuses. 

Training  Program  for  Personnel  for  Enumeration. — Every  per- 
son hired  to  do  work  in  connection  with  the  1959  Census  of  Agri- 
culture received  specialized   training  for   his  job.     Staff   mem- 


bers of  the  Washington  and  Regional  Offices  of  the  Bureau  and 
of  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture  trained  approximately  110 
agriculture  field  assistants  and  2,100  crew  leaders.  The  crew 
leaders,  in  turn,  trained  and  supervised  approximately  30,000 
enumerators.  All  training  was  presented  according  to  procedures 
contained  in  various  guides  and  manuals  prepared  by  the  Bureau. 
The  training  program  included  filmstrips,  map-reading,  practice 
interviewing,  and  practice  filling  of  questionnaires  and  other 
census  forms.  In  most  instances,  training  sessions  were  held 
near  the  areas  in  which  employees  worked  and  immediately  prior 
to  the  beginning  of  their  assignments. 

Enumeration  Period. — The  actual  enumeration  in  the  conter- 
minous United  States  (see  page  XIV)  started  at  dates  varying 
from  October  7  to  November  18,  1959.  In  general,  starting  dates 
were  based  upon  regional  variations  in  harvesting  seasons  and 
on  weather  conditions.  The  primary  aim  was  to  have  the 
enumeration  late  enough  to  follow  the  harvesting  of  the  bulk 
of  important  crops  and  early  enough  to  precede  the  advent  of 
winter  weather  with  the  attending  unfavorable  travel  conditions. 
The  bulk  of  the  enumeration  work  was  completed  within  three 
to  four  weeks  after  the  starting  date.  In  Hawaii,  the  enumera- 
tion was  made  during  the  months  of  December  1959  and  January 
1960 ;  and  in  Alaska,  during  April  1960. 

Enumeration  starting  dates  for  the  censuses  of  1959  and  1954 
are  given  in  State  table  11,  together  with  figures  showing  the 
percentage  of  farms  enumerated  in  the  State  during  weekly  pe- 
riods. The  average  enumeration  date  for  the  1959  census  for 
each  county  is  given  in  county  table  6. 

Data  for  inventory  items — land  in  farms,  machinery  and  equip- 
ment, livestock,  and  poultry — relate  to  the  situation  at  the  actual 
time  of  enumeration  of  each  individual  farm.  Data  for  acres, 
production,  and  sales  of  crops  relate  generally  to  the  crops  har- 
vested during  the  crop  year  1959,  regardless  of  whether  and  when 
they  were  sold  while  data  for  sales  of  livestock  and  livestock 
products  relate  to  the  calendar  year  1959.  Since  the  enumera- 
tion was  made  before  the  end  of  1959,  special  emphasis  was 
placed  upon  the  inclusion  of  estimates  for  crops  yet  to  be  sold 
and  for  livestock  and  livestock  products  expected  to  be  sold  in 
the  period  from  the  time  of  enumeration  to  the  end  of  the  cal- 
endar year.  Instructions  on  the  questionnaire  and  the  wording 
of  questions  were  designed  to  assure  that  full  crop-year  or 
calendar-year  data  would  be  reported.  For  example,  "How  much 
of  this  year's  crop  was  or  will  be  sold?" 

ENUMERATION  FORMS  AND  PROCEDURES 

Authorization.— Section  5  of  Title  13  of  the  United  States  Code 
authorizes  the  preparation  of  forms  and  questionnaires  used  In 
the  census.    It  reads  as  follows : 

"The  Secretary  shall  prepare  schedules,  and  shall  determine 
the  inquiries,  and  the  number,  form,  and  subdivisions  thereof, 
for  the  statistics,  surveys,  and  censuses  provided  for  in  this 
title." 

The  Agriculture  Questionnaire. — The  questionnaire  for  the  1959 
Census  of  Agriculture  was  prepared  by  the  staff  of  the  Bureau. 
Selection  of  the  inquiries  was  based  on  the  results  of  the  1958 
pretest  and  experience  gained  in  earlier  censuses.  Careful  con- 
sideration was  given  to  such  factors  as  the  current  availability

UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


of  data  from  other  sources,  the  possibility  of  obtaining  data  by 
methods  other  than  a  census,  the  adequacy  of  the  data  that  might 
be  obtained,  and  the  need  for  and  usefulness  of  the  data.  Two 
committees  gave  advice  and  counsel  to  the  Bureau.  One  of  these, 
a  Special  Advisory  Committee,  was  composed  of  members  desig- 
nated by  the  organizations  they  represented,  following  an  invita- 
tion from  the  Director  of  the  Bureau  of  the  Census  to  name  a 
representative  to  serve  in  an  advisory  capacity.  The  Special 
Advisory  Committee  for  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture  was 
made  up  of  one  representative  from  each  of  the  following :  Agri- 
cultural Publishers  Association,  American  Association  of  Land- 
Grant  Colleges  and  State  Universities,  American  Farm  Bureau 
Federation,  American  Farm  Economic  Association,  American 
Statistical  Association,  Farm  Equipment  Institute,  National  As- 
sociation of  Commissioners,  Secretaries,  and  Directors  of  Agri- 
culture, National  Council  of  Farmer  Cooperatives,  National 
Farmers'  Union,  National  Grange,  Rural  Sociological  Society, 
and  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture.  A  representative  of 
the  Bureau  of  the  Budget  was  in  attendance  at  all  meetings  of 
the  Advisory  Committee. 

Because  of  the  special  interest  of  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agri- 
culture in  censuses  of  agriculture,  the  Director  of  the  Bureau 
of  the  Census  sought  the  continuous  cooperation  of  that  organiza- 
tion in  developing  plans,  questionnaires,  and  procedures  for  the 
1959  Census  of  Agriculture.  Working  Groups  were  established 
in  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture  to  make  recommendations 
for  the  following  general  subjects : 

Tenure,  Land  Values,  and  Mortgage  Debt 

Land  Use  and  Conservation  and  Production  Practices 

Field  Crops 

Fruits  and  Vegetables 

Forest  Products 

Livestock,  Poultry,  and  Dairy 

Income  and  Expenditure  (including  Contractual  Operations) 

Farm  Labor 

Equipment  and  Facilities  (including  Structures) 

Each  Working  Group  had  the  responsibility  for  ascertaining 
the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture's  need  for  data  in  the  field 
covered  by  its  "terms  of  reference"  and  for  presenting  recom- 
mendations to  a  small  Joint  Committee  comprising  representa- 
tives of  both  the  Bureau  of  the  Census  and  the  U.S.  Department 
of  Agriculture.  The  Joint  Committee  received  written  recom- 
mendations from  each  Working  Group.  The  Chairman  of  each 
Group  appeared  before  the  Joint  Committee  as  did  any  member 
of  the  Working  Group  who  was  needed  to  present  supplemental 
information  of  a  specialized  nature. 

Prior  to  the  formulation  of  the  questionnaire,  State  Agricul- 
tural Colleges  and  other  major  users  of  census  data  were  invited 
to  suggest  inquiries  for  the  enumeration.  Each  member  of  the 
Special  Advisory  Committee  had  the  opportunity  and  the  respon- 
sibility for  channeling  in  suggestions  from  the  organization  he 
represented.  The  number  of  inquiries  submitted  from  all  sources 
greatly  exceeded  the  number  that  could  be  included  in  the  census, 
from  the  point  of  view  of  cost,  of  the  respondent's  time  and 
patience,  and  of  practical  value  to  the  majority  of  users  of  data. 

The  final  selection  included  316  questions,  some  of  which  con- 
sisted of  several  parts,  for  the  48  States  comprising  the  con- 
terminous United  States.  Although  each  of  the  316  questions 
was  asked  in  one  or  more  of  the  48  States,  considerably  less  than 
this  total  was  asked  in  any  one  State  because  of  the  use  of  "State" 
questionnaires.  Moreover,  about  50  questions  out  of  the  total 
were  asked  of  approximately  one-fifth  of  all  farm  operators  in 
the  State.  The  number  of  questions  ranged  from  159  on  the 
questionnaire  for  Maine  to  194  on  the  questionnaire  for  Cali- 
fornia. In  all,  38  versions  of  the  questionnaire — one  for  each 
State  or  combination  of  adjoining  States  and  two  for  Texas — 


were  used  for  the  1959  census  in  the  conterminous  United  States 
as  compared  with  21  versions  in  1954  and  41  in  1950.  A  separate 
version  was  used  in  Alaska  and  another  in  Hawaii. 

Differences  in  the  questionnaires  were  designed  to  account 
for  regional  and  local  differences  in  agriculture.  Most,  but  not 
all,  of  the  differences  related  to  crops.  The  use  of  State  ques- 
tionnaires made  possible  the  inclusion  of  separate  inquiries  for 
all  important  crops  grown  within  a  State  and,  at  the  same 
time,  a  reduction  in  the  total  number  of  inquiries  for  a  State. 
Questions  that  did  not  apply,  to  any  considerable  degree,  to  a 
particular  State  were  omitted  from  the  questionnaire  used  in 
that  State.  For  example,  separate  questions  about  citrus  fruits 
were  omitted  from  all  questionnaires  except  for  the  few  States 
where  citrus  fruits  are  grown.  An  added  advantage  of  State 
questionnaires  was  that  production  and  sales  data  could  be  asked 
in  the  unit  of  measure  most  commonly  used  by  the  farmers  in 
each  State.  Regional  variation  in  the  number  and  type  of  ques- 
tions is  an  important  provision  of  the  census  for  obtaining  com- 
plete coverage  of  agricultural  operations. 

About  2  weeks  before  the  start  of  the  enumeration,  agricul- 
ture questionnaires  were  mailed  to  most  households  in  rural 
areas.  A  letter  was  attached  to  each  questionnaire  asking  the 
farm  operator  to  fill  the  questionnaire  and  to  give  it  to  the  enu- 
merator when  he  called.  The  purpose  of  this  procedure  was 
to  save  time  and  money  in  taking  the  census  and  to  improve  the 
quality  of  the  information  given  by  farm  operators.  By  having 
the  questionnaire  ahead  of  time,  the  farmer  could  determine  what 
information  would  be  required  and  could  check  his  records  in 
advance  of  the  enumerator's  visit.  It  was,  however,  the  respon- 
sibility of  the  enumerator  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire 
for  each  place  which  qualified.  If  the  questionnaire  had  been  filled 
out  by  the  farm  operator,  the  enumerator  was  instructed  to 
examine  the  questionnaire  for  completeness  and  accuracy  and, 
if  need  be,  to  give  the  farmer  such  help  as  might  be  necessary. 

Agricultural  Operations. — The  training  of  enumerators  stressed 
the  concept  that  a  census  of  agriculture  is  a  census  of  agricultural 
operations  rather  than  a  census  of  farms.  This  concept  was  in- 
tended to  assure  a  complete  agricultural  census  free  of  any  per- 
sonal judgment  by  enumerators  as  to  what  constitutes  a  farm.  In 
accordance  with  clearly  defined  procedures,  an  enumerator  was 
required  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire  for  each  person 
who  had  charge  of  one  or  more  agricultural  operations,  whether 
or  not  he  considered  himself  to  be  a  farm  operator.  For  enu- 
meration purposes,  it  was  considered  that  there  were  agricul- 
tural operations  on  a  place  if,  at  any  time  in  1959 — 

a.  Any  livestock  (hogs,  cattle,  sheep,  goats,  horses,  or  mules) 
were  kept  on  the  place. 

b.  A  combined  total  of  20  or  more  chickens,  turkeys,  and  ducks 
were  kept  on  the  place. 

c.  Any  grain,  hay,  tobacco,  or  other  field  crops  were  grown  on 
the  place. 

d.  A  combined  total  of  20  or  more  fruit  trees,  grapevines,  and 
nut  trees  were  on  the  place. 

e.  Any  vegetables,  berries,  or  nursery  or  greenhouse  products 
were  grown  on  the  place  for  sale. 

As  a  result  of  the  requirement  that  all  places  having  agri- 
cultural operations  be  enumerated,  more  questionnaires  were 
obtained  than  are  included  in  the  tabulations  for  farms.  During 
the  office  processing  operations  that  followed  the  completion  of 
enumeration,  criteria  were  applied  to  the  questionnaires  to  sort 
out  for  tabulation  those  that  represented  farms  according  to 
the  census  definition  of  a  farm  (see  page  XIV). 

Enumeration  Assignments  and  Enumeration  Districts. — To  as- 
sure a  complete  enumeration  within  the  time  allotted,  the  United 
States  (excluding  Alaska  and  Hawaii)  was  divided  into  29,374 
Enumeration   Assignments,   or    EA's.     Each    EA   comprised   an

area  that  one  enumerator  could  reasonably  be  expected  to  canvass 
within  a  3-  to  4-week  period,  as  indicated  by  performance  rec- 
ords from  the  1954  census. 

Each  EA  was  made  up  of  one  or  more  Enumeration  Dis- 
tricts, or  "ED's,"  as  the  geographic  unit  for  enumeration.  Prior 
to  the  enumeration,  the  ED's  were  classified  into  three  groups 
on  the  basis  of  the  density  of  dwellings  in  relation  to  the  number 
of  farms,  as  indicated  by  the  1954  Census  of  Agriculture,  the 
1950  Census  of  Population  and  Housing,  current  population  esti- 
mates, and  highway  maps  showing  culture  which  were  basic 
to  establishing  the  boundaries  of  each  assignment.  Through  the 
use  of  different  canvassing  procedures  for  each  group  of  ED's, 
the  Bureau  was  able  to  reduce  the  cost  of  enumeration  without 
running  any  material  risk  of  missing  any  farms  or  other  places 
with  agricultural  operations.  The  ED  groupings  and  canvassing 
procedures  are  described  below. 

Group  I  Enumeration  Districts. — In  general,  ED's  with  no 
well-defined  cluster  of  dwellings  were  considered  to  be  open- 
country  areas  and  comprise  Group  I.  For  each  ED  of  Group 
I,  in  his  Enumeration  Assignment,  the  enumerator  was  required 
to  list  in  his  Record  Book  the  name  of  every  head  of  household 
living  in  the  ED  and  also  the  name  of  every  person  not  living 
in  the  ED  who  had  agricultural  operations  there.  There  were 
approximately  20,751  ED's  in  Group  I  for  the  1959  Census. 

Group  II  Enumeration  Districts. — Rural  ED's  in  which  the 
number  of  dwellings  was  large  in  relation  to  the  number  of 
farms  were  considered  to  be  in  Group  II.  For  each  ED,  in 
Group  II,  the  enumerator  was  required  to  list  the  head  of  the 
household  for  all  dwellings  in  the  ED  except  for  those  on  less 
than  one  acre  of  ground  in  built-up  residential  areas  of  50  or 
more  dwellings.  He  was  also  required  to  determine,  by  obser- 
vation or  local  inquiry,  whether  there  were  any  farms  or  other 
places  with  agricultural  operations  in  the  built-up  areas  and, 
if  so,  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire.  There  were 
approximately  7,979  ED's  in  Group  II. 

Group  III  Enumeration  Districts. — Most  incorporated  places 
and  unincorporated  villages  having  approximately  150  or  more 
dwellings  were  designated  as  separate  ED's  and  are  classified 
as  Group  III.  Also,  most  ED's  in  counties  around  large  metro- 
politan areas  were  designated  as  Group  III  Ed's.  Prior  to 
the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture,  places  enumerated  in  these 
areas  during  the  1954  Census  of  Agriculture  were  listed  in 
the  Enumerator's  Record  Book.  The  enumerator  was  required 
to  visit  and  enumerate  or  otherwise  account  for  each  place  listed 
in  his  Record  Book.  In  addition,  he  was  instructed  to  ask  at 
each  of  these  places  if  there  were  any  farms  or  other  places  with 
agricultural  operations  in  the  Enumeration  District,  and,  if  so, 
to  add  them  to  his  list  and  enumerate  them.  There  were  ap- 
proximately 15,836  Group  III  ED's  in  1959.  According  to  the 
1954  Census,  these  ED's  contained  380,575  farms. 

A  few  enumeration  districts  that  comprised  incorporated 
places  or  that  were  within  an  incorporated  city  were  classified 
as  Group  I  or  Group  II  because  they  had  a  large  number  of  farms. 
A  few  others,  comprising  extensive  rural  districts  requiring  con- 
siderable travel,  were  classified  as  Group  III  because  they  had 
only  a  small  number  of  farms. 

Enumerator's  Eecord  Book. — Each  enumerator  received  one  or 
more  Record  Books  containing  a  listing  form  for  use  during 
canvassing.  (See  appendix  for  facsimile  of  one  page  of  list- 
ing form  included  in  Enumerator's  Record  Book.)  The  lines 
on  the  listing  form  were  numbered  in  consecutive  order.  Ex- 
cept as  otherwise  prescribed  for  Group  II  and  Group  III  ED's, 
the  enumerator  listed  in  his  Record  Book  the  name  of  each  head 
of  household  living  in  his  assigned  area  and  also  the  name 
of  each  person  not  living  in  his  area  who  had  agricultural  opera- 
tions there.  As  he  made  his  listing,  he  also  asked  the  questions 
about  agricultural  operations  that  were  printed  on  the  listing 
form.  Answers  to  these  questions  determined,  for  the  enumerator, 
whether  or  not  an  agriculture  questionnaire  was  required  for  the 
person  listed  and,  if  so,  whether  he  or  some  other  enumerator 
was  responsible  for  getting  it.  Thus,  the  Record  Book  served 
as  an  important  aid  to  the  enumerator  in  securing  complete  cov- 
erage of  all  agricultural  operations  within  his  area.    At  the  same 


time,  it  helped  to  prevent  enumeration  of  the  same  place  by  two 
or  more  enumerators. 

Enumeration  Maps. — As  a  second  aid  to  getting  complete  cover- 
age, each  enumerator  received  a  map  or,  in  a  few  exceptional 
cases,  a  brief  written  description  of  the  area  assigned  to  him 
for  enumeration.  He  was  required  to  plan  and  follow  an  orderly 
route  of  enumeration  within  the  boundaries  of  his  assigned  area 
in  accordance  with  established  canvassing  procedures.  As  the 
enumerator  listed  a  place  in  his  Record  Book,  he  indicated  its 
location  by  copying  onto  his  map  the  number  of  the  line  on  which 
he  listed  it.  This  numbering  system  indicated  the  enumerator's 
route  of  travel,  and  helped  both  the  enumerator  and  his  crew 
leader  to  determine  the  extent  of  coverage  of  the  enumerator's 
assignment  at  any  given  time. 

Lists  of  Special  and  Large  Farms. — Prior  to  the  enumeration,  a 
card  list  of  "special  and  large  farms"  was  prepared  on  the  basis 
of  records  obtained  from  the  1954  census  and  from  Federal  and 
State  agricultural  agencies.  In  general,  "special  and  large  farms" 
fell  into  one  of  three  categories:  (1)  farms  having  unusually 
large  acreages,  livestock  inventories,  or  annual  sales  as  indi- 
cated by  available  records;  (2)  farms  known  to  be  specializing 
in  such  operations  as  broiler  production,  turkey  growing,  feed 
lots,  nursery  or  greenhouse  production,  cranberry  bogs,  citrus 
groves,  etc.;  (3)  farms  that  might  easily  be  overlooked  because 
they  had  absentee  operators  or  were  not  locally  thought  of  as 
farms,  such  as  institutions,  Indian  reservations,  grazing  associa- 
tions, etc. 

Enumerators  were  given  the  cards  for  the  special  and  large 
farms  within  their  assignment  areas  to  use  as  aids  to  obtaining 
complete  coverage.  Generally,  the  cards  provided  insurance 
against  the  omission  of  farming  units  that  could  have  a  signifi- 
cant effect  on  the  totals  for  a  given  county  or  State.  The  enu- 
merator was  instructed  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire 
for  each  special  or  large  farm  in  his  area  or  to  write  an  explana- 
tion on  the  card  as  to  why  an  agriculture  questionnaire  was  not 
required  on  the  basis  of  1959  operations.  The  crew  leader  had 
a  duplicate  set  of  cards  for  use  in  checking  enumeration  coverage. 

Landlord-Tenant  Questionnaire. — As  in  several  previous  cen- 
suses, a  special  landlord-tenant  questionnaire  was  used  in  some 
parts  of  the  South  as  a  supplement  to  the  agriculture  question- 
naire. Its  purpose  was  to  help  the  enumerator  get  complete 
and  accurate  coverage  of  individually  operated  tracts  of  land 
that  were  actually  paft  of  one  operating  unit  under  the  control 
of  one  landlord.  To  accomplish  this  purpose,  the  enumerator  was 
required  to  fill  a  landlord-tenant  questionnaire  for  each  landlord 
who  had  any  land  worked  on  shares.  The  entries  made  in  this 
questionnaire  included  the  name  of  each  sharecropper,  tenant,  or 
renter ;  the  amount  of  land  assigned  to  each ;  and  the  acreage  and 
quantity  of  crops  harvested  on  shares.  By  checking  these  entries 
against  the  agriculture  questionnaires  obtained  for  the  individual 
operators,  the  enumerator  and  the  Central  Office  could  verify  that 
each  part  of  the  operating  unit  controlled  by  the  landlord  was 
enumerated  and  that  it  was  enumerated  only  once.  The  landlord- 
tenant  questionnaire  was  used  in  386  counties  in  the  1959  census 
as  compared  with  approximately  900  counties  in  1954. 

Township  Sketch  Map. — In  some  areas  of  the  Great  Plains,  a 
considerable  portion  of  land  is  farmed  by  nonresident  operators — 
that  is,  by  persons  who  do  not  live  on  the  land  they  operate  or 
who  live  on  it  only  during  part  of  the  year.  Enumerators  in  these 
areas  used  a  special  mapping  form,  the  Township  Sketch,  in 
addition  to  their  enumeration  maps  as  an  aid  to  obtaining  com- 
plete coverage.  Each  township  included  on  the  sketch  was 
identified  by  township  and  range  number  and  was  divided  into 
144  small  squares.  In  a  standard  section  of  640  acres,  each 
square  represented  a  quarter  section  of  land,  or  160  acres.  As 
the  enumerator  canvassed  his  assignment  area,  he  indicated  the 
acreage  and  location  of  each  farm,  ranch,  and  tract  of  nonfarm 


XII

land  by  drawing  its  boundaries  on  the  sketch.  He  also  used  a 
simple  numbering  system  as  a  cross  reference  between  the  agri- 
cultural land  identified  on  the  sketch  and  the  questionnaire  on 
which  it  was  reported.  The  Township  Sketch  was  used  in  all 
counties  of  North  Dakota  and  South  Dakota  and  in  selected 
counties  of  Colorado,  Kansas,  Minnesota,  Montana,  Nebraska, 
New  Mexico,  Oklahoma,  and  Wyoming. 

Field  Review  of  Enumerator's  Work. — In  the  1959  census, 
greater  emphasis  was  placed  on  a  detailed  review  of  enumerators' 
work  during  enumeration  than  had  been  the  case  in  previous 
censuses.  The  objective  was  to  detect  and  correct  enumeration 
errors  as  early  as  possible  in  order  to  achieve  and  maintain  a 
high  quality  of  individual  performance.  Starting  on  the  first  day 
of  enumeration  and  continuing  throughout  the  enumeration 
period,  each  crew  leader  was  instructed  to  make  regular  and 
frequent  visits  to  his  enumerators.  At  each  visit,  he  was  to 
follow  a  clearly  defined  procedure  for  observing  the  enumerator's 
conduct  of  interviews  and  for  checking  his  listings,  maps,  ques- 
tionnaires, and  other  forms  for  accuracy  and  completeness. 

As  an  aid  to  checking  coverage  and  enumerator  efficiency,  the 
crew  leader  was  given  a  list  containing  estimates,  based  on  the 
1954  census,  of  the  number  of  questionnaires  required  in  each 
enumeration  assignment  area  within  his  district,  and  of  the 
mileage  and  time  required  to  obtain  those  questionnaires. 

SAMPLING 

Use  of  Sampling. — In  the  1959  census,  as  in  several  previous 
censuses,  sampling  was  used  in  two  ways :  for  enumeration  and 
for  tabulation.  Sampling  in  enumeration  consisted  of  the  col- 
lection of  information  about  the  items  included  in  sections  IX 
through  XV  of  the  questionnaire  for  only  a  sample  of  farms. 
The  "sample"  items  relate  to  sales  of  dairy  products  and  sales  of 
livestock,  use  of  fertilizer  and  lime,  farm  expenditures,  land-use 
practices,  farm  labor,  equipment  and  facilities,  rental  agreements, 
farm  values,  and  farm  mortgage  debt.  The  same  sample  of  farms 
was  used  for  tabulations  by  type  of  farm  and  by  economic  class 
of  farm  and  for  many  of  those  by  size  of  farm  and  by  color  and 
tenure  of  operator. 

Description  of  the  Sample. — -The  sample  used  for  the  1959  Census 
of  Agriculture  consisted  of  all  farms  with  a  total  area  of  1,000 
or  more  acres  or  with  estimated  sales  of  $100,000  or  more  in  1950, 
and  approximately  20  percent  of  all  other  farms.  Farms  with 
1,000  or  more  acres  were  universally  included  in  the  sample 
during  enumeration.  As  the  enumerator  filled  the  questionnaire, 
he  determined  the  number  of  "acres  in  this  place"  (see  question  7 
of  the  agriculture  questionnaire).  If  the  acreage  amounted  to 
1,000  or  more  he  was  required  to  fill  sections  IX  through  XV  of 
the  questionnaire.  Farms  with  less  than  1,000  acres,  with  esti- 
mated sales  of  $100,000  or  more,  were  included  in  the  sample 
during  the  office  processing.  For  these  farms  the  information  for 
sections  IX  through  XV  was  obtained  by  mail. 

The  selection  of  farms  of  less  than  1,000  acres  for  inclusion  in 
the  sample  was  made  during  enumeration,  according  to  the  fol- 
lowing procedure :  As  the  enumerator  determined  that  he  was 
required  to  obtain  a  questionnaire,  he  assigned  a  number  to  it, 
whether  or  not  he  was  able  to  obtain  the  questionnaire  on  his 
first  visit.  He  assigned  numbers  in  consecutive  order,  beginning 
with  "1"  for  the  first  questionnaire  required  in  each  enumera- 
tion district  within  his  area.  He  was  instructed  to  fill  sections 
IX  through  XV  on  all  questionnaires  for  which  the  assigned 
number  ended  in  "2"  or  "7"  (i.e.  2,  7,  12,  17,  22,  etc.). 

Adjustment  of  the  Sample.— An  adjustment  in  the  part  of  the 
sample  that  was  comprised  of  farms  of  less  than  1,000  acres  ;md 
with  estimated  sales  of  less  than  $100,000  was  made  by  a  process 
essentially  equivalent  to  stratifying  the  farms  in  the  sample  by 


size  of  farm.  The  purpose  of  this  adjustment  was  to  Improve 
the  reliability  of  the  estimates  based  on  the  sample  and  to  reduce 
the  effects  of  possible  biases  introduced  by  enumerators  who  de- 
viated from  the  prescribed  procedure  for  selecting  the  sample 
farms.  The  adjustment  procedure  was  carried  out  for  "blocks" 
of  counties,  each  consisting  of  from  one  to  ten  counties  In  a  State. 
To  adjust  the  sample,  separate  counts  were  made  for  each  county, 
and  for  the  block  of  counties  of  all  farms  and  of  farms  in  the 
sample  for  each  of  10  size-of-farm  groups  based  on  the  "acres 
in  this  place"  (question  7).  The  10  size-of-farm  groups  were  as 
follows :  under  10  acres,  10  to  49  acres,  50  to  69  acres,  70  to  99 
acres,  100  to  139  acres,  140  to  179  acres,  180  to  219  acres,  220 
to  259  acres,  260  to  499  acres,  and  500  to  999  acres.  Farms  of  less 
than  1,000  acres,  but  with  value  of  sales  of  $100,000  or  more, 
were  excluded  from  these  counts.  For  each  size-of-farm  group, 
the  number  of  farms  in  the  sample  for  the  block  of  counties  was 
adjusted  to  make  it  equal  or  approximately  equal  to  the  total 
number  of  farms  divided  by  five.  This  was  accomplished  for 
each  group  by  the  elimination  or  duplication  on  a  random  basis, 
of  farms  in  those  counties  where  the  difference  between  the 
actual  proportion  in  the  sample  and  the  expected  20  percent  was 
in  the  same  direction  as  the  difference  for  the  block  of  counties. 
Estimation  of  Totals  for  the  Sample. — For  the  items  Included 
in  the  sample  part  of  the  questionnaire  (sections  IX  through 
XV),  estimated  totals  for  all  farms  were  derived  from  the  tabu- 
lated totals  for  the  farms  in  the  adjusted  sample.  First,  item-by- 
item  totals,  as  tabulated  for  that  part  of  the  sample  comprising 
farms  of  less  than  1,000  acres  and  with  estimated  sales  of  less 
than  $100,000,  were  multiplied  by  5.  These  estimated  item-by- 
item  totals  were  then  added  to  the  corresponding  item  totals,  as 
tabulated,  for  all  farms  of  1,000  acres  and  over  and  farms  with 
estimated  sales  of  $100,000  and  over.  The  resulting  values 
represent  the  estimated  totals  for  all  farms. 

Presentation  of  Sample  Data.— In  tables  where  a  small  amount 
of  data  based  on  the  sample  farms  is  presented  together  with 
data  for  all  farms,  the  data  based  on  the  sample  are  printed  in 
italics.  Other  tables  contain  headnotes  explaining  that  most 
of  the  data  are  estimates  based  on  reports  for  only  a  sample 
of  farms. 

Reliability  of  Estimates.— The  estimated  totals  for  all  farms  of 
the  items  enumerated  for  only  the  sample  farms  are  subject 
to  sampling  errors.  The  estimated  totals  obtained  by  making 
tabulations  for  only  the  farms  included  In  the  sample  are  also 
subject  to  sampling  errors.  State  tables  23  and  24  contain  ap- 
proximate measures  of  the  sampling  reliability  of  the  estimates 
for  numbers  of  farms  reporting  and  for  item  totals.  While  these 
measures  indicate  the  general  level  of  sampling  reliability  of  the 
estimates,  they  do  not  completely  reflect  errors  arising  from 
sources  other  than  sampling ;  for  example,  errors  in  the  original 
data  reported  by  farmers.  Errors  arising  from  sources  other  than 
sampling  may,  in  some  instances,  be  relatively  more  important 
than  sampling  variation,  especially  for  county  totals. 

The  general  level  of  sampling  reliability  of  estimated  totals 
may  be  determined  from  the  data  in  State  tables  23  and  24.  State 
table  24  contains  a  list  of  items,  together  with  a  figure  for  each 
item  indicating  one  of  the  four  levels  of  sampling  reliability  that 
are  presented  in  State  table  23.  For  each  item  the  sampling 
error  according  to  the  number  of  farms  reporting  may  be  de- 
termined from  State  table  23,  in  the  column  for  the  level  of 
sampling  reliability  designated  in  State  table  24.  To  determine 
the  sampling  reliability  for  any  item,  reference  must  be  made  to 
State  table  24  to  find  out  which  of  the  four  levels  of  sampling 
reliability  given  In  State  table  23  should  be  used,  and  also  the 
appropriate  county  or  State  table  to  obtain  the  number  of  farms 
reporting  the  item. 


INTRODUCTION 


XIII 


As  explained  in  State  table  23,  the  level  of  sampling  reliability 
designated  as  level  1  should  always  be  used  to  determine  the 
sampling  reliability  of  estimated  numbers  of  farms  or  of  farms 
reporting. 

State  table  23  shows  percentage  limits  such  that  chances  are 
about  68  out  of  100  that  the  difference  between  an  estimate  based 
on  the  sample  and  the  figure  that  would  have  been  obtained  from 
a  tabulation  of  all  farms  would  be  no  more  than  the  percentage 
specified  for  the  estimated  number  of  farms  reporting  that  item. 
The  chances  are  about  99  out  of  100  that  the  difference  would  be 
less  than  2V£  times  the  percentage  specified. 

As  indicated  by  the  percentages  in  State  table  23,  the  smaller 
the  number  of  farms  reporting  a  given  item,  the  larger  the  relative 
sampling  error  in  the  estimated  total  for  that  item.  Even  so, 
considerable  detail  is  presented  for  each  item,  by  several  classifi- 
cations of  farms,  in  order  to  permit  the  appraisal  of  estimates 
for  various  combinations  of  items  not  shown  in  this  report.  Per- 
centages and  averages  that  may  be  derived  from  the  tables  will 
generally  have  greater  relative  reliability  than  the  corresponding 
estimated  totals.  However,  significant  patterns  of  relationships 
may  be  observed  in  the  estimated  totals  even  though  the  indi- 
vidual data  are  subject  to  relatively  large  sampling  errors. 

The  data  representing  estimates  based  on  a  sample  of  farms 
for  the  1954  census  were  obtained  in  essentially  the  same  way  as 
in  1959.  Therefore,  State  tables  23  and  24  may  also  be  used  to 
determine  the  sampling  errors  for  the  1954  data. 

Differences  in  Data  Resulting  From  Differences  in  Tabulating 
Procedures. — Many  of  the  figures  in  the  detailed  State  tables  rep- 
resent estimates  obtained  by  tabulating  only  the  sample  farms. 
The  totals  for  these  detailed  distributions  will  generally  differ 
somewhat  from  totals  presented  in  other  tables  obtained  from 
different  distributions  which  were  tabulated  on  a  100  percent 
basis.  Moreover,  although  most  of  the  figures  presented  by  coun- 
ties were  obtained  from  tabulations  of  all  farms,  the  data  in 
county  table  4  for  commercial  farms,  and  all  of  the  data  in  the 
county  tables  on  dairy  products  and  livestock  sold,  fertilizer  and 
lime,  farm  expenditures,  land-use  practices,  farm  labor,  facilities 
and  equipment,  and  value  of  land  and  buildings  were  estimated 
for  each  county  on  the  basis  of  data  tabulated  for  the  farms  in 
the  sample.  The  State  totals  in  the  county  tables  for  these  items, 
though  based  also  on  the  sample,  were  obtained  in  a  different 
series  of  tabulating  runs,  and  so  may  differ  slightly  from  totals 
presented  in  some  State  tables.  For  reasons  of  economy  the 
sample  distributions  were  not  adjusted  to  the  100  percent  totals 
even  when  such  totals  were  available,  nor  were  slight  discrepan- 
cies resulting  from  different  runs  of  the  sample  data  always  rec- 
onciled unless  the  differences  were  large  enough  to  affect  the 
usefulness  or  reliability  of  the  data. 

PROCESSING  OPERATIONS 

Completion  of  Enumeration. — As  an  enumerator  completed  his 
assignment,  he  turned  the  portfolio  containing  questionnaires  and 
other  census  materials  over  to  his  crew  leader.  After  making 
a  final  review  of  the  enumerator's  work,  the  crew  leader  mailed 
the  portfolio  to  the  Agriculture  Processing  Office  at  Parsons, 
Kansas.  There,  each  enumerator  portfolio  was  thoroughly 
checked  for  completeness  of  all  required  forms  and  for  correct 
application  of  the  sampling  procedure. 

Editing  of  Questionnaires.— Each  agriculture  questionnaire  was 
individually  edited  and  coded  before  the  information  was  trans- 
ferred to  punch  cards  and  tabulated.  As  the  first  major  step  in 
the  editing  process,  questionnaires  that  did  not  represent  farms 
according  to   the  census  definition  were  withdrawn  from  fur- 


ther processing.  (See  p.  XIV.)  As  the  second  major  step,  the 
remaining  questionnaires  were  examined  for  errors,  omissions, 
and  inconsistencies.  Among  the  specific  items  subjected  to  con- 
sistency checks  were  the  following : 

a.  Total  acreage  compared  with  its  distribution  by  use. 

b.  Acreage  of  individual  crops  harvested  compared  with  total 
cropland  harvested. 

c.  Irrigated  acreage  compared  with  total  acres  in  the  farm. 

d.  Total  acreage  of  individual  crops  for  all  purposes  compared 
with  the  acreage  harvested  for  specific  purposes. 

e.  Quantity  of  crops  harvested  in  relation  to  acreage  harvested. 

f.  Sales  in  relation  to  production  and,  for  livestock,  to  inven- 
tories. 

g.  Total  livestock  compared  with  the  inventory  by  age  and  sex. 
h.  Expenditures  compared  with  production  and  inventories. 

Obvious  errors  in  calculations  or  in  units  of  measure,  and 
misplaced  entries  were  corrected  as  they  were  found.  Entries 
not  clearly  legible  were  rewritten.  Many  omissions  or  incon- 
sistencies were  disregarded  during  editing.  Those  of  significant 
magnitude  could  be  and  were  handled  more  efficiently  and  eco- 
nomically during  mechanical  processing  operations.  Question- 
naires containing  major  inconsistencies  and  omissions  were  re- 
ferred to  members  of  the  technical  staff  for  review.  Depending 
on  the  magnitude  of  the  data  involved,  the  technical  staff  cor- 
rected (or  supervised  the  correction  of)  the  questionnaires  either 
on  the  basis  of  information  reported  for  other  farms  of  similar 
type  in  the  area  or  on  the  basis  of  additional  information  re- 
ceived in  response  to  letters  directed  to  the  farm  operators. 

Coding  of  Questionnaires. — Most  of  the  numerical  information 
on  a  questionnaire  was  self-coding  in  that  the  inquiry  number 
was  utilized  for  the  item  identification  on  punch  cards  or  on 
tabulations  runs.  However,  some  manual  coding  was  also  neces- 
sary for  such  items  as  irrigated  crops  for  selected  States,  crops 
infrequently  reported,  miscellaneous  poultry,  etc.  Code  numbers 
were  entered  on  questionnaires  to  classify  farms  and,  in  some 
cases,  to  identify  data  for  individual  items.  All  farms  were  coded 
by  size  of  farm  in  terms  of  total  acreage,  by  race,  and  by  tenure 
of  operator.  Farms  in  the  17  Western  States,  Louisiana,  and 
Hawaii  were  also  coded  on  the  basis  of  irrigated  cropland  and 
irrigated  pasture.  Additional  codes  were  applied  to  all  farms 
included  in  the  sample  to  classify  them  by  type  of  farm  and  by 
total  value  of  agricultural  products  sold.  Individual  items  were 
coded  only  where  reports  were  received  for  crops  or  poultry  not 
covered  by  separate  inquiries  on  the  questionnaire.  This  coding 
was  necessary  to  assure  inclusion  of  the  data  in  the  appropriate 
farm  product  totals. 

Tabulation  of  Data. — After  the  questionnaires  were  edited  and 
coded,  the  information  on  them  was  punched  on  cards.  The  cards 
were  then  mechanically  sorted  and  fed  into  machines  which 
transferred  the  data  to  tabulation  sheets.  One  of  the  Initial 
and  primary  steps  in  the  machine  handling  of  the  punch  cards 
was  to  separate  and  list  those  cards  which  lacked  necessary  in- 
formation, those  which  contained  inconsistent  or  impossible  data, 
and  those  on  which  the  data  were  possible  but  of  such  magnitude 
that  a  further  review  of  the  individual  questionnaires  was  war- 
ranted. The  listing  sheets  were  examined  and,  as  necessary,  the 
cards  were  corrected.  When  the  cards  for  a  particular  county 
were  considered  satisfactory,  the  data  were  tabulated. 

Subject-matter  specialists  of  the  Bureau  and  the  U.S.  Depart- 
ment of  Agriculture  examined  all  tabulations  for  reasonableness 
and  consistency.  As  necessary,  they  made  corrections  on  the  basis 
of  a  further  review  and  reappraisal  of  the  original  reports  and 
verification  of  the  editing,  coding,  and  punching.

UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


PRESENTATION  OF  STATISTICS 

Statistical  Content  of  This  Report. — This  report  is  part  of  Vol- 
ume I  of  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture.  Volume  I  consists  of 
54  parts,  each  part  containing  information  about  agriculture  for 
a  single  State,  Commonwealth,  or  Possession.  Each  part  con- 
tains county  data  for  that  particular  State  or  area.  The  term 
"county,"  as  used  in  this  report  embraces  election  districts  in 
Alaska,  parishes  in  Louisiana,  municipios  (municipalities)  in 
Puerto  Rico,  etc.  The  statistics  for  1959  were  obtained  from  the 
Census  of  Agriculture  taken  in  the  "conterminous  United  States" 
(see  following  paragraph),  Hawaii,  and  Puerto  Rico  during  the 
period  October  1959  to  January  1960  and  in  Alaska,  American 
Samoa,  Guam,  and  Virgin  Islands  as  of  April  1,  1960.  Compara- 
tive data  for  years  prior  to  1959  were  obtained  from  earlier 
censuses. 

In  the  planning  of  the  publications  for  the  1960  Censuses  of 
Population  and  Housing  and  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture,  the 
term  "conterminous  United  States,"  recommended  by  the  Board 
of  Geographic  Names  to  designate  the  48-State  area  as  it  ex- 
isted before  Alaska  and  Hawaii  became  States,  was  adopted  by 
the  Bureau  of  the  Census. 

The  definitions  and  explanations  in  this  introduction  for  vol- 
ume I  generally  have  application  broad  enough  to  include  the 
States  of  Alaska  and  Hawaii,  and  the  Commonwealth  of  Puerto 
Rico  and  the  island  possessions.  However,  specific  application 
in  many  instances  may  be  limited  to  the  conterminous  United 
States :  for  example,  references  to  earlier  censuses,  to  the  sam- 
pling methods  and  procedures,  to  specific  sections  or  questions  on 
the  questionnaires,  and  to  specific  table  numbers. 

For  each  part  of  volume  I  (one  part  for  each  State  or  area), 
a  facsimile  of  the  appropriate  questionnaire  is  reproduced  in 
the  appendix. 

The  statistics  for  States  and  counties  are  presented  according 
to  the  same  general  plan  as  was  followed  in  the  volume  I  re- 
ports for  the  1954  and  the  1950  censuses.  State  and  county  totals 
are  given  for  nearly  all  items  for  which  information  was  ob- 
tained in  the  1959  census.  However,  most  of  the  data  by  eco- 
nomic class  of  farm,  type  of  farm,  and  color  and  tenure  of  farm 
operator  are  given  only  for  States. 

Comparative  data  for  the  States  are  given  for  each  census 
year  beginning  with  1920.  Comparative  data  for  counties  are 
given  for  the  years  1959  and  1954.  For  some  items,  the  data 
obtained  from  the  1959  census  are  the  only  ones  available.  For 
comparative  purposes  1950  data  are  carried  in  county  table  6 
for  the  kind  of  road  on  which  farms  were  located. 

Comparability  of  Data. — The  data  obtained  from  the  various 
censuses  of  agriculture  are  not  strictly  comparable  for  all  items. 
For  example,  differences  from  one  census  to  another  in  the  time 
of  enumeration,  the  wording  of  the  questions,  and  the  definition 
of  a  farm  cause  some  lack  of  comparability.  Differences  con- 
sidered to  have  a  significant  effect  on  the  comparability  of  data 
are  described  in  the  text  and/or  mentioned  in  footnotes  to  the 
tables. 

Minor  Civil  Divisions. — As  in  prior  censuses,  data  for  most  of 
the  items  included  in  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture  were  tabu- 
lated for  minor  civil  divisions.  The  term  "minor  civil  division" 
applies  to  the  primary  subdivision  of  a  county  into  smaller  geo- 
graphic areas  such  as  townships,  precincts,  districts,  wards, 
beats,  municipalities,  etc.  Figures  for  these  smaller  geographic 
areas  are  not  included  in  any  of  the  published  reports,  but  they 
may  be  supplied  upon  request  and  payment  of  the  costs  of  com- 
piling and  checking  the  data. 

Prior  to  the  1954  Census,  an  enumeration  assignment  did  not 
include  more  than  one  minor  civil  division,  even  in  cases  where 
the  township,  precinct,  etc.,  did  not  have  enough  farms  to  provide 
a  full  workload  for  an  enumerator.    In  1954,  and  again  In  1959, 


the  aim  was  to  make  enumeration  assignments  large  enough  to 
keep  each  enumerator  fully  occupied  in  his  area  for  a  3-  to  4-week 
period.  Hence,  in  some  areas,  two  or  more  adjoining  minor  civil 
divisions  were  combined  into  one  enumeration  assignment.  An 
enumeration  assignment  never  comprised  the  whole  of  one  minor 
civil  division  and  a  part  of  another,  nor  a  part  of  two  or  more 
minor  civil  divisions.  A  minor  civil  division  that  included  too 
many  farms  for  one  enumerator  to  cover  during  the  enumeration 
period  was  divided  into  two  or  more  enumeration  assignments. 

In  some  cases,  the  minor  civil  division  tabulations  provide  totals 
for  a  single  minor  civil  division,  even  when  such  totals  required 
a  grouping  of  enumeration  assignments.  In  other  cases,  the  minor 
civil  division  tabulations  provide  totals  for  a  combination  of 
two  or  more  adjoining  minor  civil  divisions.  The  data  for  each 
individual  minor  civil  division  included  in  such  totals  can  be  tab- 
ulated separately,  however,  since  each  questionnaire  obtained  in 
the  census  contains  the  designation  of  the  minor  civil  division  in 
which  the  farm  headquarters  was  located.  An  additional  charge 
must  be  made  for  a  separate  tabulation  of  any  small  area  in- 
cluded in  a  total  for  two  or  more  combined  minor  civil  divisions. 

Requests  for  census  information  for  minor  civil  divisions  should 
be  directed  to  the  Agriculture  Division,  Bureau  of  the  Census, 
Washington  25,  D.C. 

DEFINITIONS  AND  EXPLANATIONS 

Descriptive  Summary  and  References. — The  definitions  and  ex- 
planations that  follow  relate  only  to  those  items  that  are  con- 
sidered to  be  inadequately  described  in  the  tables  where  they 
appear.  Although  the  descriptive  terms  and  explanations  refer 
specifically  to  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture,  many  of  them  also 
apply  to  earlier  censuses.  Most  of  the  definitions  consist  of  a 
resume  of  the  questionnaire  wording,  supplemented  by  excerpts 
from  instructions  given  to  enumerators.  For  exact  wording  of 
the  questions  and  of  the  instructions  included  on  the  question- 
naire, see  the  facsimile  of  the  1959  Agriculture  Questionnaire  in 
the  appendix  of  this  report. 

An  analysis  of  the  questions  asked  in  the  1959  census,  and  of 
the  data  obtained,  is  given  in  Volume  II,  General  Report,  Statis- 
tics by  Subjects,  United  States  Census  of  Agriculture,  1959.  The 
general  report  presents  statistics  for  States  by  subject  matter. 

General  Farm  Information 

Census  Definition  of  a  Farm. — For  the  1959  Census  of  Agricul- 
ture, the  definition  of  a  farm  was  based  primarily  on  a  combina- 
tion of  "acres  in  the  place"  and  the  estimated  value  of  agricultural 
products  sold. 

The  word  "place"  was  defined  to  include  all  land  on  which 
agricultural  operations  were  conducted  at  any  time  in  1959  under 
the  control  or  supervision  of  one  person  or  partnership.  (For 
definition  of  "agricultural  operations",  see  p.  X.)  Control  may 
have  been  exercised  through  ownership  or  management,  or 
through  a  lease,  rental,  or  cropping  arrangement. 

Places  of  less  than  10  acres  in  1959  were  counted  as  farms  if 
the  estimated  sales  of  agricultural  products  for  the  year  amounted 
to  at  least  $250.  Places  of  10  or  more  acres  in  1959  were  counted 
as  farms  if  the  estimated  sales  of  agricultural  products  for  the 
year  amounted  to  at  least  $50.  Places  having  less  than  the  $50 
or  $250  minimum  estimated  sales  in  1959  were  also  counted  as 
farms  if  they  could  normally  be  expected  to  produce  agricultural 
products  in  sufficient  quantity  to  meet  the  requirements  of  the 
definition.  This  additional  qualification  resulted  in  the  inclusion 
as  farms  of  some  places  engaged  in  farming  operations  for  the 
first  time  in  1959  and  places  affected  by  crop  failure  or  other 
unusual  conditions. 

To  avoid  biases  arising  from  an  enumerator's  personal  judg- 
ment and  opinion,  the  Bureau  did  not  give  enumerators  the  defini-

tlon  of  a  farm.  Instead,  enumerators  were  instructed  to  obtain 
questionnaires  for  all  places  considered  farms  by  their  operators 
and  for  all  other  places  that  had  one  or  more  agricultural  opera- 
tions. (See  "Agricultural  Operations",  p.  X.)  In  1954,  enumer- 
ators were  instructed  to  till  questionnaires  on  the  same  basis  as 
in  1959.  In  1950,  agricultural  operations  were  denned  to  include 
every  place  of  3  or  more  acres,  whether  or  not  the  operator  con- 
sidered it  a  farm,  and  every  place  having  "specialized  operations", 
regardless  of  the  acreage.  "Specialized  operations"  referred  to 
nurseries  and  greenhouses  and  to  places  having  100  or  more 
poultry,  production  of  300  or  more  dozen  eggs  in  1949,  or  3  or 
more  hives  of  bees.  In  all  of  the  three  last  censuses,  as  a  result, 
questionnaires  were  filled  for  a  considerable  number  of  places 
that  did  not  qualify  as  farms.  The  determination  as  to  which 
questionnaires  represented  farms  was  made  during  office  process- 
ing operations  and  only  those  questionnaires  meeting  the  criteria 
for  a  farm  were  included  in  the  tabulations. 

For  both  the  1950  and  1954  Censuses  of  Agriculture,  places  of 
3  or  more  acres  were  counted  as  farms  if  the  annual  value  of 
agricultural  products,  whether  for  home  use  or  for  sale  but  ex- 
clusive of  home-garden  products,  amounted  to  $150  or  more. 
Places  of  less  than  3  acres  were  counted  as  farms  only  if  the 
annual  sales  of  agricultural  products  amounted  to  $150  or  more. 
A  few  places  with  very  low  agricultural  production  because  of 
unusual  circumstances,  such  as  crop  failure,  were  also  counted  as 
farms  if  they  normally  could  have  been  expected  to  meet  the 
minimum  value  or  sales  criteria. 

In  the  censuses  from  1925  to  1945,  enumerators  were  given  a 
definition  of  "farm"  and  were  instructed  to  obtain  reports  only 
for  those  places  which  met  the  criteria.  According  to  this  defini- 
tion, farms  included  all  places  of  3  or  more  acres,  regardless  of 
the  quantity  or  value  of  agricultural  production,  and  places  of 
less  than  3  acres  if  the  value  of  agricultural  products,  whether 
for  home  use  or  for  sale,  amounted  to  $250  or  more.  Because  of 
changes  In  price  level,  the  $250  minimum  resulted  in  the  in- 
clusion of  varying  numbers  of  farms  of  less  than  3  acres  in  the 
several  censuses  taken  during  this  period.  Generally,  the  only 
reports  excluded  from  tabulation  were  those  taken  In  error  and 
those  showing  very  limited  agricultural  production,  such  as  only 
a  small  home  garden,  a  few  fruit  trees,  a  small  flock  of  chickens, 
etc.  In  1945,  reports  for  places  of  3  acres  or  more  were  tabulated 
only  if  at  least  3  acres  were  in  cropland  and/or  pasture  or  if  the 
value  of  products  in  1944  amounted  to  at  least  $150. 

The  decrease  in  the  number  of  farms  in  1950  and  1954,  as  com- 
pared with  earlier  censuses,  was  partly  due  to  the  change  in 
farm  definition,  especially  with  respect  to  farms  of  3  or  more 
acres  In  size.  Some  of  the  places  of  3  or  more  acres  that  were 
not  counted  as  farms  in  1950  and  1954  because  the  value  of  their 
agricultural  production  was  less  than  $150  would  have  qualified 
as  farms  if  the  criteria  had  been  the  same  as  in  earlier  censuses. 

For  1959,  the  decrease  in  the  number  of  farms  as  compared 
with  all  prior  censuses  resulted  partly  from  the  change  in  farm 
definition.  The  fact  that  sales  of  agricultural  products  In  1959 
was  used  resulted  In  the  exclusion  of  some  places  that  would 
have  qualified  as  farms  had  the  value  of  agricultural  products 
alone  been  considered.  The  Increase  In  the  acreage  minimum 
also  had  an  effect.  The  reduction  In  the  number  of  farms  due 
to  change  In  definition,  1954  to  1959,  is  shown  for  each  county 
in  county  table  1.  Some  characteristics  of  the  places  not  counted 
as  farms  In  1959,  but  which  would  have  been  included  in  1954, 
are  shown  in  State  table  10. 

The  change  in  farm  definition  made  in  1950  and  again  in  1959 
had  no  appreciable  effect  on  the  totals  for  livestock  or  crops 
because  the  places  affected  by  the  change  ordinarily  accounted 
for  less  than  1  percent  of  the  totals  for  a  given  county  or  State. 

For  the  States  that  comprise  the  conterminous  United  States, 
two  figures  are  published  for  each  county  on  the  number  of  farms 


in  1959.  One  is  an  actual  count  Of  all  farms  and  the  other  is  an 
estimate  based  on  the  number  of  farms  included  in  the  sample. 
For  almost  every  county  there  is  a  difference  between  the  actual 
number  of  farms  and  the  estimated  number  of  farms.  Because 
of  sampling  procedure  and  sampling  variability,  the  number  of 
farms  in  the  sample  seldom  agrees  exactly  with  the  actual  num- 
ber of  farms.  For  most  counties,  the  actual  number  of  farms 
in  the  sample  was  either  more  or  less  than  precisely  20  percent 
of  all  farms.  Similarly,  totals  estimated  on  the  basis  of  data 
for  the  sample  farms  may  be  slightly  more  or  slightly  less  than 
the  actual  totals  that  would  have  been  obtained  had  the  data 
been  tabulated  for  all  farms.  Therefore,  the  estimated  number 
of  farms  reporting  certain  items  may,  in  some  instances,  be 
greater  than  the  total  number  of  farms  shown  in  county  table  1. 
However,  the  estimated  number  of  farms  is  given  in  county 
tables  5  and  6  so  that  estimates  based  on  the  sample  farms  may 
be  related  to  the  estimated  rather  than  the  actual  number  of 
farms. 

Farm  Operator. — The  term  "farm  operator"  is  used  to  designate 
a  person  who  operates  a  farm,  either  doing  the  work  himself  or 
directly  supervising  the  work.  He  may  be  the  owner,  a  member  of 
the  owner's  household,  a  hired  manager,  or  a  tenant,  renter,  or 
sharecropper.  If  he  rents  land  to  others  or  has  land  worked  on 
shares  by  others,  he  Is  considered  as  operator  only  of  the  land 
which  he  retains  for  his  own  operation.  In  the  case  of  a  partner- 
ship, only  one  partner  is  counted  as  an  operator.  The  number  of 
farm  operators  is  considered  to  be  the  same  as  the  number  of 
farms. 

Farms  Reporting  or  Operators  Reporting. — Figures  for  farms  re- 
porting or  operators  reporting,  based  on  a  tabulation  of  all  farms, 
represent  the  number  of  farms,  or  operators,  for  which  the  speci- 
fied item  was  reported.  For  example,  if  there  were  1,922  farms 
in  a  county  and  only  1,465  had  chickens  4  months  old  and  over 
on  hand  at  the  time  of  enumeration,  the  number  of  farms 
reporting  chickens  would  be  shown  as  1,465.  The  difference  be- 
tween the  total  number  of  farms  and  the  number  of  farms  re- 
porting a  particular  item  represents  the  number  of  farms  not 
having  that  item,  provided  a  correct  report  was  received  for  all 
farms. 

Where  applicable,  figures  may  be  given  for  the  number  of  farms 
or  operators  not  reporting  items  that  were  intended  to  be  ob- 
tained for  all  farms;  for  example,  residence  of  farm  operator, 
State  table  4.  The  number  not  reporting,  as  compared  with  the 
total  number  of  farms  or  operators,  indicates  the  extent  of 
incompleteness  of  the  reporting  of  the  data  for  the  item. 

Land  Area. — The  approximate  total  land  area  of  States  and 
counties  as  reported  for  1959  is,  in  general,  the  same  as  that  re- 
ported for  all  censuses  beginning  with  1940.  Such  differences  as 
are  shown  reflect  political  changes  in  boundaries  or  actual  changes 
in  land  area  caused  by  changes  in  the  number  or  size  of  reser- 
voirs, lakes,  streams,  etc.  For  Alaska,  the  areas  for  election 
districts  represent  the  gross  area  of  land  and  water. 

land  in  Farms. — Except  for  managed  farms,  the  land  to  be  in- 
cluded in  each  farm  was  determined  from  the  answers  to  ques- 
tions about  the  number  of  acres  owned,  the  number  of  acres  rented 
from  others  or  worked  on  shares  for  others,  and  the  number  of 
acres  rented  to  others  or  worked  on  shares  by  others.  The  acres 
owned  and  the  acres  rented  from  others  or  worked  on  shares  for 
others  were  first  added  together  and  then  the  acres  rented  to 
others  or  worked  on  shares  by  others  were  subtracted.  The  re- 
sult represented  the  number  of  acres  in  the  farm.  The  number  of 
acres  in  a  managed  farm  was  the  difference  between  the  total 
land  managed  and  that  part  of  the  managed  land  that  was  rented 
to  others  or  worked  on  shares  by  others. 

In  the  1959,  1954,  and  1950  censuses,  enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  record  total  figures  for  land  owned,  land  rented  from 
others,  and  land  managed  for  others,  including  any  part  of  the 
land  that  was  rented  to  others.    In  censuses  prior  to  1950,  enu- 


XVI 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


merators  were  instructed  to  exclude  all  land  rented  to  others  and 
to  record  only  that  portion  of  the  acreage  owned,  rented  from 
others,  or  managed  for  others  that  was  retained  by  the  farm  op- 
erator. Thus,  the  figures  for  the  individual  tenures  of  land  are 
not  entirely  comparable  for  all  censuses.  However,  the  land  in- 
cluded in  each  farm  was  determined  on  essentially  the  same  basis 
for  all  censuses. 

The  acreage  designated  in  the  tables  as  "land  in  farms"  consists 
primarily  of  "agricultural"  land— that  is,  land  used  for  crops 
and  pasture  or  grazing.  It  also  includes  considerable  areas  of 
land  not  actually  under  cultivation  nor  used  for  pasture  or  graz- 
ing. For  example,  the  entire  acreage  of  woodland  and  wasteland 
owned  or  rented  by  farm  operators  is  included  as  land  in  farms, 
unless  it  was  being  held  for  nonagricultural  purposes  or  unless 
the  acreage  was  unusually  large.  For  1959  and  1954,  if  a  place 
had  1,000  or  more  acres  of  woodland  not  pastured  and  wasteland, 
and  if  less  than  10  percent  of  the  total  acreage  in  the  place  was 
used  for  agricultural  purposes,  the  acreage  of  woodland  not  pas- 
tured and  wasteland  was  reduced  to  equal  the  acreage  used  for 
agriculture.  The  procedure  used  in  1950  for  excluding  unusually 
large  acreages  of  woodland  not  pastured  and  wasteland  differed 
slightly  from  the  one  used  in  1959  and  1954.  In  1950,  adjustments 
were  made  in  places  of  1,000  or  more  acres  (5,000  or  more  in  the 
17  Western  States ) ,  if  less  than  10  percent  of  the  total  acreage  was 
used  for  agricultural  purposes. 

Except  for  open  range  and  grazing  land  used  under  government 
permit,  all  grazing  land  was  to  be  included  as  land  in  farms 
provided  the  place  of  which  it  was  a  part  was  a  farm.  Grazing 
land  operated  by  Grazing  Associations  was  to  be  reported  in  the 
name  of  the  person  chiefly  responsible  for  conducting  the  business 
of  the  Association.  Land  used  rent  free  was  to  be  reported  as 
land  rented  from  others.  All  land  in  Indian  reservations  that 
was  used  for  growing  crops  or  grazing  livestock  was  to  be  in- 
cluded. Land  in  Indian  reservations  that  was  not  reported  by 
individual  Indians  and  that  was  not  rented  to  non-Indians  was 
to  be  reported  in  the  name  of  the  cooperative  group  that  used  the 
land.  In  some  instances,  an  entire  Indian  reservation  was  re- 
ported as  one  farm. 

Land  owned. — All  land  that  the  operator  and/or  his  wife 
held  under  title,  purchase  contract,  homestead  law,  or  as  heir 
or  trustee  of  an  undivided  estate  at  the  time  of  enumeration  is 
considered  as  owned. 

Land  Eented  from  Others. — This  item  includes  not  only  land 
that  the  operator  rented  or  leased  from  others  but  also  land 
he  worked  on  shares  for  others  and  land  he  occupied  rent  free. 
Grazing  land  used  under  government  permit  or  license  is  not 
included. 

Land  Rented  to  Others.— This  item  includes  all  land  rented  or 
leased  to  others,  except  land  leased  to  the  government  under  the 
Soil  Bank,  and  all  land  worked  by  others  on  shares  or  on  a 
rent-free  basis.  For  the  most  part,  the  land  rented  to  others 
represents  agricultural  land  but  it  also  includes  land  rented 
for  residential  or  other  purposes.  The  tenant  or  sharecropper 
is  considered  as  the  operator  of  land  leased,  rented,  or  worked 
on  shares  even  though  his  landlord  may  supervise  his  opera- 
tions. The  landlord  is  considered  as  operator  of  only  that  por- 
tion of  the  land  not  assigned  to  tenants  or  croppers. 

Land  Managed. — This  item  includes  all  tracts  of  land  man 
aged  for  one  or  more  employers  by  a  person  hired  on  a  salary 
basis.  A  hired  manager  was  considered  to  be  the  operator  of 
the  land  he  managed  since  he  was  responsible  for  the  agricul- 
tural operations  on  that  land  and  frequently  supervised  others 
in  performing  those  operations.  Managed  land  was  always  to 
be  reported  on  a  separate  questionnaire  whether  or  not  the 
manager  also  operated  a  farm  on  his  own  account. 

Land  in  Two  or  More  Counties. — An  individual  farm  was  al- 
ways enumerated  in  only  one  county,  even  in  cases  where  the 
land  was  located  in  two  or  more  counties.  If  the  farm  operator 
lived  on  the  farm,  the  farm  was  enumerated  in  the  county  where 
he  lived.  If  he  did  not  live  on  the  farm,  the  figures  for  the 
farm  were  tabulated  for  the  county  where  the  farm  head- 
quarters was  located.  In  cases  where  there  was  any  question  as 
to  the  location  of  the  headquarters,  figures  for  the  farm  were 
tabulated  for  the  county  where  most  of  the  land  was  located. 


Land  in  Farms  According  to  Vse. — Land  in  farms  has  been 
distributed  according  to  the  way  in  which  it  was  used  in  1959. 
The  land  uses  described  in  the  following  paragraphs  are  mutually 
exclusive;  that  is,  each  acre  of  land  is  included  only  once  even 
though  it  may  have  had  more  than  one  use  during  the  year. 

Cropland  Harvested. — This  category  refers  to  all  land  from 
which  any  crops  were  harvested  in  1959,  whether  for  home  use 
or  for  sale.  It  includes  land  from  which  hay  (including  wild 
hay)  was  cut  and  land  in  berries  and  other  small  fruits,  or- 
chards, vineyards,  nurseries,  and  greenhouses.  Matured  crops 
hogged  off  or  grazed  were  considered  to  have  been  "crops  har- 
vested" and  were  reported  here.  Land  from  which  two  or 
more  crops  were  harvested  in  1959  was  to  be  counted  only  once 
in  the  land-use  classification.  Land  used  for  other  purposes 
either  before  or  after  the  crops  were  harvested  was  to  be  re- 
ported as  cropland  harvested,  without  regard  to  the  other  uses. 
The  enumerator  was  instructed  to  check  the  figure  for  crop- 
land harvested  for  each  farm  by  adding  the  acreages  of  the 
individual  crops  and  subtracting  the  acreages  from  which  two 
or  more  crops  were  harvested.  This  checking  procedure  was 
repeated  during  the  office  processing  of  questionnaires  for  all 
farms  having  100  or  more  acres  of  cropland  harvested. 

Cropland  used  only  for  Pasture. — This  land-use  classification 
includes  rotation  pasture  and  all  other  land  used  only  for  pas- 
ture or  grazing  that  the  operator  considered  could  have  been 
used  for  crops  without  additional  Improvement.  Enumerators 
were  instructed  to  include  land  planted  to  crops  that  were 
hogged  off,  pastured,  or  grazed  before  maturity  but  to  exclude 
land  pastured  before  or  after  hay  or  other  crops  were  harvested 
from  it.  Permanent  open  pasture  may  have  been  reported 
either  for  this  item  or  for  "other  pasture"  depending  on  whether 
or  not  the  operator  considered  it  as  cropland. 

The  figures  for  1945  and  earlier  censuses  are  not  entirely 
comparable  with  those  for  the  last  three  censuses.  For  1945, 
the  figures  include  only  cropland  used  solely  for  pasture  in  1944 
that  had  been  plowed  within  the  preceding  seven  years.  The 
figures  for  1940,  1935,  and  1925  are  more  nearly  comparable 
with  those  for  1959,  1954,  and  1950,  however,  because  they  in- 
clude land  pastured  that  could  have  been  plowed  and  used  for 
crops  without  additional  clearing,  draining,  or  irrigating. 

Cropland  not  Harvested  and  not  Pastured. — This  classification 
represents  a  total  of  three  subclasses  for  the  17  Western  States 
and  two  subclasses  for  other  States. 

Cultivated  Summer  Fallow. — This  subclass  of  land  is  shown 
only  for  the  17  Western  States.  It  refers  to  cropland  that 
was  plowed  and  cultivated  but  left  unseeded  for  the  1959 
harvest  in  order  to  control  weeds  and  conserve  moisture. 

Soil  Improvement  Grasses  and  Legumes. — For  the  1959  cen- 
sus, land  used  only  for  cover  crops  to  control  erosion  or  to 
be  plowed  under  for  green  manure  is  tabulated  separately 
from  "other  cropland".  After  the  establishment  of  the  Soil 
Bank,  land  that  would  normally  have  been  used  for  other 
purposes  was  frequently  planted  to  soil-improvement  crops. 
In  counties  where  large  acreages  were  placed  in  the  Soil 
Bank,  the  total  of  land  used  for  soil-improvement  crops  plus 
"other  cropland"  may  be  considerably  larger  than  the  "other 
cropland"  shown  for  previous  censuses. 

Other  Cropland. — This  subclass  includes  idle  cropland,  land 
in  crops  intended  for  harvest  after  1959,  and  cropland  not 
harvested  because  of  complete  crop  failure,  low  prices,  labor 
shortage,  or  other  reasons.  The  1959  figures  for  "other 
cropland"  are  not  entirely  comparable  with  those  for  previ- 
ous censuses  since  they  do  not  include  land  used  only  for 
soil-improvement  crops.     (See  preceding  paragraph.) 

Woodland  Pastured. — This  classification  includes  all  wood- 
land where  livestock  were  pastured  or  grazed  in  1959.  The 
instruction  on  the  questionnaire — "Include  as  woodland  all 
wood  lots  and  timber  tracts;  cutover  and  deforested  land 
which  has  value  for  wood  products  and  has  not  been  improved 
for  pasture" — represents  a  somewhat  more  precise  definition 
than  the  corresponding  instruction  contained  on  the  1954  ques- 
tionnaire. No  definition  of  woodland  was  given  in  1950  apart 
from  an  instruction  to  enumerators  not  to  include  brush  pas- 
ture as  woodland.  Some  of  the  changes  in  woodland  acreages 
from  one  census  to  another  may  merely  represent  differences 
in  interpretation  as  to  what  constitutes  "woodland." 

Woodland  not  Pastured.— This  classification  refers  to  all 
woodland  not  used  for  pasture  or  grazing  in  1959,  including 
land  in  operated  farms  that  was  placed  in  the  Soil  Bank  and 
planted  to  trees.  Unusually  large  tracts  of  timberland  that 
were  reported  as  woodland  not  pastured  were  excluded  from 


INTRODUCTION 


XVII 


the  tabulation  of  land  In  farms  when  It  was  evident  that  such 
land  was  held  primarily  for  nonagrieultural  purposes. 

Other  Pasture. — This  classification  refers  to  all  land  other 
than  woodland  and  cropland  that  was  used  only  for  pasture 
or  grazing  in  1959.  It  includes  noncrop  open  or  brush  pasture 
and  cutover  or  deforested  land  that  has  been  Improved  and 
used  for  pasture.  The  figures  for  the  last  three  censuses  are 
comparable  but  those  for  1945  Include  all  nonwoodland  pas- 
ture that  had  not  been  plowed  during  the  preceding  seven 
years.  For  the  1940  census  and  earlier  years,  the  figures  are 
more  nearly  comparable  with  those  for  the  last  three  censuses. 
However,  the  classification  may  be  somewhat  less  inclusive 
because  land  that  could  have  been  plowed  and  used  for  crops 
without  additional  clearing,  draining,  or  irrigating  was  classi- 
fied as  plowable  pasture  and  Included  with  "cropland  used 
only  for  pasture". 

Improved  Pasture. — This  subclass  refers  to  that  portion  of 
"other  pasture"  on  which  one  or  more  of  the  following  prac- 
tices had  been  used:  liming,  fertilizing,  seeding,  irrigating, 
draining,  or  the  clearing  of  weed  or  brush  growth.    The  fig- 
ures are  comparable  with  those  for  1954,  when  the  question 
on  improved  pasture  was  asked  for  the  first  time. 
Other  Land. — This  classification  refers  to  all   land  not  in- 
cluded in  the  preceding  land-use  classifications,  such  as  house 
lots,  barn  lots,  lanes,  roads,  ditches,  land  area  of  ponds,  and 
wasteland.     This  figure  for  1959  was  obtained  from  the  ma- 
chine tabulations  by  subtracting  the  total  of  all  other  uses 
from  the  total  land  in  all  farms  reported  for  a  given  county 
or  classification.    Hence,  there  is  no  figure  given  to  represent 
the  farms  reporting  this  item. 

Value  of  Land  and  Buildings. — Only  average  values  of  land 
and  buildings  per  farm  and  per  acre  are  presented  in  this  report 
They  are  estimates  based  on  data  obtained  for  sample  farms. 
Estimates  of  the  total  value  of  land  and  buildings  by  States, 
geographic  divisions,  and  the  United  States,  are  presented  in 
volume  II. 

The  enumerator  was  instructed  to  record  the  market  value  of 
the  land  and  the  buildings  on  that  land.  Market  value  was  defined 
as  the  price  which  the  farm  operator  would  expect  to  receive  for 
the  land  and  buildings  if  he  were  to  sell  them  on  the  day  of 
enumeration. 

More  problems  and  difficulties  arise  in  the  enumeration  of  farm- 
real-estate  values  than  in  the  enumeration  of  most  other  agri- 
cultural items.  Most  of  the  items  enumerated  require  the  re- 
spondent to  make  a  statement  of  fact.  For  example,  information 
about  the  number  and  value  of  farm  animals  sold  alive  during  the 
year  is  based  on  actual  transactions.  Similarly,  information  about 
livestock  inventories  relates  to  the  situation  existing  on  a  spe- 
cific place  at  a  specific  time.  Reports  concerning  the  value  of 
land  and  buildings,  however,  are  estimates  based  almost  entirely 
on  opinion.  The  majority  of  farms  have  not  changed  hands  for 
many  years  and  are  not  currently  for  sale.  For  such  farms,  the 
operators  are  not  likely  to  have  any  clear  basis  for  estimating  the 
value.  To  make  an  intelligent  and  objective  estimate,  a  respond- 
ent first  needs  to  make  an  estimate  of  the  prevailing  average 
market  value  of  farms  in  his  community.  Then,  he  must  either 
add  to  or  subtract  from  that  estimate  to  allow  for  the  different 
characteristics  of  his  own  farm.  In  many  cases,  an  operator  who 
would  not  sell  his  farm  under  any  circumstances  may  report  an 
unreasonably  high  market  value.  In  other  cases,  a  farm  operator 
who  acquired  his  real  estate  during  a  period  of  relatively  low 
prices  may  estimate  an  unrealistically  low  value  by  current  stand- 
ards. Because  of  the  extent  of  variation  that  is  known  to  exist 
in  real  estate  values,  it  is  difficult  to  devise  checking  procedures 
that  will  identify  inaccurate  estimates. 

Age  of  Operator. — Farm  operators  were  classified  by  age  into 
six  age  groups.  The  average  age  of  farm  operators  was  derived 
from  the  sum  of  the  ages  of  all  farm  operators  reporting  age 
divided  by  the  number  reporting.  The  number  of  farm  operators 
65  or  more  years  of  age  is  an  actual  count  based  on  the  operators 
reporting  age. 


Residence  of  Operator. — Farm  operators  were  classified  by  resi- 
dence according  to  whether  or  not  they  lived  on  the  farms  they 
were  operating.  Some  of  those  who  did  not  live  on  the  farms 
they  operated  themselves  lived  on  farms  operated  by  others.  In 
cases  where  all  the  land  was  rented  from  others  or  worked  on 
shares  for  others,  the  operator  was  considered  to  live  on  the  farm 
operated  provided  the  dwelling  he  occupied  was  included  in  the 
rental  agreement.  The  dwelling,  in  such  cases,  was  not  neces- 
sarily on  the  land  being  operated.  Similarly,  a  farm  operator 
who  did  not  live  on  the  land  being  cultivated  or  grazed  but  who 
had  some  agricultural  operations  (other  than  a  home  garden) 
at  his  dwelling  was  considered  as  living  on  the  farm  operated. 

Since  some  farm  operators  live  on  their  farms  only  during 
a  part  of  the  year,  comparability  of  the  figures  for  various  cen- 
suses may  be  affected  by  the  date  of  enumeration. 

In  a  few  cases,  the  enumerator  failed  to  report  the  residence  of 
the  farm  operator.  Differences  between  the  total  number  of 
farms  and  the  number  of  farm  operators  classified  by  residence 
indicate  the  extent  of  under-reporting. 

Tear  Began  Operating  Present  Farm. — Enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  report  the  year  during  which  a  farm  operator  began 
to  operate  his  present  farm  and,  if  the  year  was  1958  or  later, 
also  to  report  the  month.  The  year  was  intended  to  refer  to  the 
first  year  of  the  period  during  which  the  operator  had  been  in 
continuous  charge  of  his  present  farm  or  of  any  part  of  it.  The 
time  of  year  that  farmers  move  is  indicated  by  the  month  they 
began  operating  their  farms,  as  shown  by  a  monthly  breakdown 
of  the  reports  for  farmers  who  began  operating  their  present 
farms  during  1958  and  1959. 

Off-Farm  Work  and  Other  Income. — To  obtain  a  measure  of  the 
extent  to  which  farm  operators  rely  on  nonfarm  sources  for  part 
of  their  income,  four  questions  were  asked  of  all  farm  operators. 
The  first  question  asked  for  the  number  of  days  the  operator 
worked  off  his  farm  in  1959.  The  other  three  questions,  to  be 
answered  "Yes"  or  "No,"  asked  (1)  whether  other  members  of  the 
operator's  household  did  any  work  off  the  farm ;  (2)  whether  any 
income  was  received  from  sources  other  than  the  sale  of  agri- 
cultural products  from  the  farm  operated;  and  (3)  whether  the 
combined  income  of  all  members  of  the  household  from  off -farm 
work  and  other  sources  was  greater  than  the  total  value  of  agri- 
cultural products  sold  from  the  farm  operated. 

Off-farm  work  was  defined  to  include  work  on  someone  else's 
farm  for  pay  as  well  as  all  types  of  nonfarm  jobs,  businesses,  and 
professions,  whether  the  work  was  done  on  the  farm  premises  or 
elsewhere.    Exchange  work  was  not  included. 

The  questions  asked  in  the  1959  Census  are  closely  comparable 
with  those  asked  in  1954.  The  data  for  1959  are  actual  totals  of 
all  operators  reporting  off-farm  work  and  other  income  whereas 
those  for  1954  are  estimated  totals  based  on  the  sample. 

Equipment  and  Facilities. — In  1959  as  in  several  earlier  cen- 
suses, data  about  specified  equipment  and  facilities  were  obtained 
for  only  a  sample  of  farms.  Farm  operators  were  asked  to  report 
equipment  and  facilities  that  were  on  the  farm  at  the  time  of  enu- 
meration, regardless  of  ownership.  They  were  to  include  items 
that  were  temporarily  out  of  order  but  not  any  that  were  worn 
out. 

Data  in  terms  of  actual  number  were  obtained  for  the  follow- 
ing items  of  farm  equipment  in  1959 :  (1)  grain  combines,  (2)  corn 
pickers,  (3)  pick-up  balers,  (4)  field  forage  harvesters,  (5)  mo- 
tortrucks, (6)  wheel  tractors,  (7)  garden  tractors,  (8)  crawler 
tractors,  and  (9)  automobiles.  Definitions  given  enumerators  in- 
cluded the  following  specifications,  among  others :  Corn  pickers 
related  to  all  types  of  machines  used  for  picking  corn,  whether 
used  in  separate  or  in  combined  picking-shelling  operations. 
Pick-up  balers  were  to  include  both  hand-tie  and  automatic  balers 
but  not  stationary  ones.  Motortrucks  were  to  include  pick-up 
trucks  and  truck-trailer  combinations ;  jeeps  and  station  wagons 


XVIII 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


were  also  to  be  included  if  they  were  used  primarily  as  trucks, 
but  school  buses  were  specifically  excluded.  Wheel  tractors  spe- 
cifically excluded  garden  tractors,  implements  with  built-in  power 
units,  such  as  self-propelled  combines  or  powered  buck  rakes,  and 
the  power  unit  of  a  truck-trailer  combination.  Automobiles  were 
to  include  jeeps  and  station  wagons  if  they  were  used  primarily 
as  passenger  cars. 

Questions  to  be  answered  "Yes"  or  "No"  provided  information 
as  to  the  presence  or  absence  of  the  following  items:  (1)  tele- 
phone, (2)  home  freezer,  (3)  milking  machine,  (4)  electric  milk 
cooler,  (5)  bulk-type  milk  cooler  (in  six  States  only— Michigan, 
Minnesota,  New  York,  Ohio,  Pennsylvania,  and  Wisconsin), 
(6)  crop  drier  and  (7)  power-operated  elevator,  conveyor,  or 
blower. 

Comparable  data  from  one  census  to  another  are  not  available 
for  all  items.  The  questions  asked  about  equipment  during  a 
given  census  reflect  changes  in  farm  mechanization  and  in  the 
facilities  available  to  farm  families.  Questions  about  some  items 
of  equipment  were  asked  in  1959  for  the  first  time  (electric  milk 
cooler,  crop  drier,  bulk-type  milk  cooler,  etc.).  Similarly,  some 
questions  that  were  asked  in  earlier  censuses  were  omitted  in 
1959.  For  example,  the  use  of  electricity  is  now  so  widespread 
that  there  is  no  longer  any  need  for  obtaining  a  count  of  the 
farms  having  It. 

Farms  by  Kind  of  Koad.— The  classification  of  farms  by  the  kind 
of  road  on  which  they  are  located  is  based  on  only  a  sample  of 
farms.  The  enumerator  was  Instructed  to  report,  on  the  basis 
of  his  own  observation,  the  kind  of  road  on  which  the  most 
frequently  used  entrance  to  the  farm  was  located.  For  farms 
consisting  of  two  or  more  tracts,  he  was  to  limit  his  report  to  the 
tract  on  which  the  farm  operator  had  his  dwelling  or  other 
headquarters. 

Farm  labor. — The  questions  about  farm  labor  were  asked  only 
for  the  sample  farms  and  related  to  persons  working  during 
the  calendar  week  preceding  the  week  of  enumeration.  Since 
the  enumeration  starting  dates  varied  by  geographic  areas,  and 
the  enumeration  within  each  area  lasted  over  a  period  of  several 
weeks,  the  calendar  weeks  to  which  the  data  apply  also  vary. 
Thus,  the  data  for  an  individual  farm  may  relate  to  any  one 
week  during  the  months  of  October,  November,  or  December,  or 
even,  in  a  few  instances,  to  weeks  during  September  1959  or 
January  1960. 

Farm  labor  was  defined  to  include  any  work,  chores,  or  planning 
necessary  to  the  agricultural  operations  of  the  farm ;  and  to  ex- 
clude housework,  contract  construction  work,  custom  machine 
work,  and  repair,  installation,  or  construction  work  done  by  per- 
sons employed  specifically  for  such  work.  The  farm  labor  in- 
formation contained  in  this  report  represents  estimates  based  on 
answers  to  questions  relating  to  the  farm  work  or  chores  done 
during  the  week  by  (1)  operator,  (2)  unpaid  members  of  the 
operator's  family,  and  (3)  hired  persons.  An  operator  was 
considered  as  working  if  he  worked  one  or  more  hours ;  unpaid 
members  of  the  operator's  family,  if  they  worked  15  or  more 
hours ;  and  hired  persons,  if  they  worked  at  all  during  the  week. 
Data  are  not  fully  comparable  from  one  census  to  another, 
primarily  because  of  differences  in  the  period  to  which  they  relate. 
In  1954,  the  data  were  purposely  related  to  either  one  of  two 
calendar  weeks,  depending  in  part  on  the  starting  date  set  for 
the  enumeration  and  in  part  on  which  week  represented  a  period 
of  peak  employment  within  a  given  State.  For  the  majority  of 
States,  the  period  specified  was  the  week  of  September  26-October 
2 ;  for  other  States,  the  week  of  October  24-30. 

In  1950,  as  in  1959,  the  data  related  to  the  week  preceding  the 
actual  enumeration.  Unlike  1959,  however,  enumeration  starting 
dates  were  identical  for  all  States  in  1950  (April  1)  but  since 
several  weeks  were  required  to  complete  the  enumeration,  the 
calendar  week  preceding  the  enumeration  was  not  identical  for 


all  farms.  In  1945  and  1935,  the  number  of  farm  workers  related 
to  the  first  week  In  January  and,  in  1940,  to  the  last  week  in 
March.  In  1945,  1940,  and  1935,  only  persons  working  the  equiv- 
alent of  two  or  more  days  during  the  specified  week  were  to  be 
included.  In  1945  and  1940,  an  additional  specification  limited 
the  workers  to  those  14  years  old  and  over. 

Experience  gained  from  earlier  censuses  indicates  that  farm 
labor  data  are  often  unsatisfactorily  reported  unless  the  week 
specified  is  the  week  immediately  preceding  the  actual  enumer- 
ation. When  a  farm  operator  was  asked  to  report  the  number  of 
persons  employed  during  a  specified  week  that  was  several  weeks 
prior  to  enumeration,  he  often  reported  the  highest  number  of 
persons  employed  during  the  year.  Obviously  incorrect  reports 
were  adjusted  to  make  the  data  reflect  more  nearly  the  situation 
known  to  exist  during  the  specified  week.  The  farm  labor  data 
for  1954  relates  to  a  specified  week  which,  in  some  cases,  was  sev- 
eral weeks  prior  to  enumeration.  Few  adjustments  were  made 
in  those  data,  however,  even  though  there  were  indications  of 
incorrect  reporting. 

Regular  and  Seasonal  Workers. — Hired  persons  working  on 
the  farm  during  the  week  concerned  were  classed  as  "regular" 
workers  if  the  period  of  actual  or  expected  employment  was  150 
days  or  more  during  the  year.  They  were  classed  as  "seasonal" 
workers  if  the  period  of  actual  or  expected  employment  was 
less  than  150  days.  In  cases  where  the  period  of  employment 
was  not  reported  for  an  individual  farm,  it  was  estimated  from 
data  for  such  items  as  basis  of  payment,  wage  rates,  expendi- 
tures for  labor  in  1959,  and  type  of  farming  operations. 

Hired  Workers  by  Basis  of  Payment. — Hired  persons  were 
also  classified  according  to  whether  they  were  paid  on  a 
monthly,  weekly,  daily,  or  hourly  basis,  or  by  piecework.  In 
cases  of  incomplete  reporting,  the  basis  of  payment  for  hired 
workers  was  supplied  during  the  office  processing  operations. 

Wage  Kates  and  Hours  Worked. — The  agreed  cash  rate  of  pay 
was  asked  for  each  class  of  hired  worker  except  those  em- 
ployed on  a  piecework  basis.  (The  number  and  the  earnings  of 
persons  paid  on  a  piecework  basis  were  required  for  those  who 
worked  on  Friday  of  the  week  preceding  the  enumeration.) 
The  number  of  hours  that  workers  were  expected  to  work  to 
earn  their  pay  was  asked  for  each  class  except  those  employed 
on  an  hourly  or  piecework  basis.  For  1959  and  1954,  the  data 
include  office  estimates  for  farms  submitting  incomplete  reports 
of  wage  rates  and  hours  worked.  The  estimates  were  consistent 
with  the  size  and  type  of  operations  for  the  individual  farm  as 
compared  with  similar  farms  in  the  area  for  which  complete 
reports  were  received.  The  corresponding  data  for  1950  apply 
only  to  farms  that  reported  both  wage  rates  and  hours  worked. 

Fertilizer  and  Lime. — The  questions  about  fertilizer  and  lime, 
asked  only  for  the  sample  farms,  relate  to  the  acreage  on  which 
fertilizer  and  lime  were  used  and  to  the  quantity  used.  Farm 
operators  were  asked  to  report  total  quantities  used  in  1959  on 
the  farms  they  operated  regardless  of  when  or  by  whom  the  ferti- 
lizer and  lime  were  purchased.  In  the  South,  some  landlords 
who  operated  farms  themselves  included  the  fertilizer  and  lime 
they  had  purchased  for  use  on  their  tenant-operated  land.  Such 
fertilizer  and  lime  may  also  have  been  reported  by  the  tenants. 
When  double  reporting  was  detected  during  the  editing  process, 
the  data  on  the  questionnaires  concerned  were  adjusted  to  elim- 
inate duplication  in  the  totals. 

The  1959  data  for  fertilizer  and  lime  are  entirely  comparable 
with  those  for  1954.  A  breakdown  between  dry  and  liquid  fer- 
tilizing materials  was  not  obtained  in  1954  and  data  on  cost 
of  either  fertilizer  or  lime  were  not  obtained  in  1959. 

Fertilizer. — The  report  for  fertilizer  was  to  refer  only  to  com- 
mercial fertilizer  and  fertilizing  materials,  including  rock 
phosphate.  The  acres  fertilized  and  the  tons  of  fertilizer  ap- 
plied to  those  acres  were  obtained  separately  for  selected  crops. 
The  selected  crops  varied  by  region  so  that  it  was  possible  to 
obtain  detailed  data  for  the  crops  most  commonly  fertilized 
in  each  region.  In  cases  where  the  same  land  was  used  for 
more  than  one  crop,  the  acres  fertilized  were  to  be  reported 
separately  for  each  crop.  If  the  same  crop  was  fertilized 
more  than  once,  however,  the  acres  in  that  crop  were  to  be 
reported  only  once.    In  all  cases,   the  total  quantity  of  fer- 


INTRODUCTION 


XIX 


tllizer  used  in  1959  was  to  be  reported,  including  quantities 
used  on  land  occupied  by  crops  planted  in  1958  or  by  crops 
to  be  harvested  in  1960. 

Reports  for  quantity  of  fertilizer  and  fertilizing  materials 
used  were  required  for  both  dry  and  liquid  materials.  The 
terms  "dry"  and  "liquid"  referred  to  the  form  in  which  the 
fertilizers  and  fertilizing  materials  were  purchased  and  not 
to  the  way  in  which  they  were  applied.  Thus,  dry  fertilizers 
were  those  purchased  in  dry  or  solid  form,  as  powders,  dusts, 
granules,  pellets,  etc. ;  liquid  fertilizers  were  those  purchased 
in  fluid  form,  as  solutions  or  as  liquefied  gases. 

Lime. — The  data  for  lime  relate  to  the  total  acreage  limed  in 
1959  and  the  total  tonnage  of  lime  and  liming  materials  used 
on  those  acres  for  purposes  of  conditioning  the  soil.  Instruc- 
tions on  the  questionnaire  stated  that  ground  limestone,  hy- 
drated  and  burnt  lime,  marl,  and  oyster  shells  were  to  be 
included  but  that  lime  used  for  spraying  or  sanitation  purposes 
was  to  be  omitted. 

For  some  counties,  the  tonnage  of  lime  shown  in  the  table 
may  be  less  than  the  tonnage  reported  for  the  Agriculture  Con- 
servation Program  or  the  Conservation  Reserve  Program  of 
the  Soil  Bank.  Differences  may  be  due  either  to  sampling 
error  or  to  under-reporting  by  farm  operators.  Many  of  the 
differences  are  minimized  or  eliminated  entirely  in  the  data 
presented  on  a  State  or  regional  basis. 

Specified  Farm  Expenditures. — The  data  for  farm  expenditures 
are  estimates  based  on  reports  obtained  from  the  sample  farms. 
The  1959  questionnaire  contained  questions  for  six  items  of  farm 
expenditure:  (1)  purchase  of  feed  for  livestock  and  poultry, 
(2)  purchase  of  livestock  and  poultry,  (3)  machine  hire, 
(4)  hired  labor,  (5)  seeds,  bulbs,  plants,  and  trees,  and  (6)  gaso- 
line and  other  petroleum  fuel  and  oil.  With  the  exception  of 
items  (2)  and  (5),  exactly  the  same  questions  were  asked  in 
1954.  For  each  item  specified,  the  total  expenditures  made  for 
the  farm  in  1959  were  to  be  reported,  whether  made  by  the 
farm  operator,  his  landlord,  or  both.  A  farm  operator  who 
rented  part  of  his  land  to  others  was  to  report  only  the  ex- 
penditures for  the  land  he  operated  himself.  Enumerators  were 
instructed  to  ask  respondents  who  had  difficulty  estimating 
their  expenses  for  the  period  between  enumeration  and  the  end 
of  the  year  to  estimate  them  on  the  basis  of  current  costs. 

Feed. — The  report  on  feed  purchased  for  livestock  and  poultry 
was  to  include  expenditures  for  grain,  hay,  millfeeds,  pasture, 
salt,  condiments,  concentrates,  and  mineral  supplements  as 
well  as  for  the  grinding  and  mixing  of  feed.  The  estimated 
cost  of  items  furnished  by  a  landlord,  contractor,  or  other 
owner  for  feeding  poultry  and  livestock  kept  on  the  farm  was 
also  to  be  included.  Payments  made  by  a  tenant  to  his  land- 
lord for  feed  grown  on  the  tenant  farm  were  to  be  excluded. 

livestock  and  Poultry. — The  cost  of  baby  chicks  and  turkey 
poults  was  to  be  included  in  the  expenditures  made  for  the 
purchase  of  livestock  and  poultry.  Enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  ask  the  farm  operator  to  include  the  cost  or  esti- 
mated purchase  value  of  poultry  and  livestock  provided  by 
others  and  cared  for  by  the  operator  under  a  contract  feeding 
arrangement.  The  cost  of  livestock  purchased  for  resale  within 
30  days  was  not  to  be  included.  A  short-term  transaction  of 
that  nature  was  considered  to  be  a  dealer  operation,  not  an 
agricultural  one. 

Data  on  the  purchase  of  livestock  and  poultry  were  not  ob- 
tained in  1954.  The  instructions  for  the  1950  census  specified 
that  expenditures  for  domestic  rabbits,  fur-bearing  animals 
kept  in  captivity,  and  bees  were  to  be  included.  Any  lack  of 
comparability  in  the  1950  and  1959  data  resulting  from  inclu- 
sion or  exclusion  of  rabbits,  fur-bearing  animals,  or  bees  is 
considered  to  be  so  slight  as  to  be  insignificant 

Machine  Hire. — Expenditures  for  machine  hire  relate  to  cus- 
tom machine  work,  such  as  tractor  hire,  threshing,  grain  or 
seed  combining,  silo  filling,  baling,  cotton  picking,  cotton  gin- 
ning, corn  picking,  plowing,  vegetable  harvesting,  fruit  pick- 
ing, spraying,  and  dusting.  Any  amount  spent  for  the  labor 
included  in  the  cost  of  machine  hire  was  to  be  considered  as 
part  of  the  total  expenditure.  The  cost  of  freight  or  trucking 
and  exchange  work  without  pay  were  to  be  omitted. 

Hired  Labor. — Expenditures  for  hired  labor  were  to  include 
total  cash  payments  made  in  1959  to  family  members  and  to 
others  for  farm  labor.  Payments  to  persons  supplied  by  a  con- 
tractor or  a  cooperative  organization  and  paid  directly  by 
them  or  by  the  crew  boss  were  also  to  be  included.  Payments 


for  the  following  types  of  work  were  to  be  excluded :  house- 
work, contract  construction  work,  custom  machine  work,  and 
repair,  installation,  or  construction  work  done  by  persons  spe- 
cifically employed  for  such  work. 

Gasoline  and  Other  Petroleum  Fuel  and  Oil. — Expenditures  for 
gasoline  and  other  petroleum  fuel  and  oil  were  to  relate  only 
to  the  products  used  in  the  farm  business.  Enumerators  were 
instructed  to  exclude  the  cost  of  petroleum  products  used 
for  the  family  automobile  when  operated  for  other  than  farm 
business  purposes  and  of  products  used  in  the  farmhouse  for 
heating,  cooking,  and  lighting. 

Seeds,  Bulbs,  Plants,  and  Trees. — Expenditures  were  to  repre- 
sent the  total  amount  spent  for  seeds,  bulbs,  plants,  and  trees 
to  be  used  on  the  farm  operated.  The  value  of  seed  grown  on 
the  farm  was  to  be  excluded.  For  nurseries  and  greenhouses, 
the  cost  of  products  purchased  for  immediate  resale  was  also 
to  be  excluded. 

This  item  of  expenditure  was  not  included  in  the  1954  Census. 
The  data  are  comparable  with  those  for  1950,  however.

Crops  Harvested. — The  1959  agriculture  questionnaire  was  simi- 
lar to  the  questionnaire  used  in  several  previous  censuses  in 
that  it  provided  for  the  collection  of  detailed  data  for  all  crops 
harvested  on  each  individual  farm.  The  variation  in  the  crops 
listed  on  the  questionnaires  used  in  different  States  made  pos- 
sible the  separate  reporting  of  all  important  crops  grown  in  a 
given  area.  All  versions  of  the  questionnaire  contained  several 
"All  other  crops"  questions  where  crops  not  specifically  listed  in 
separate  questions  were  to  be  reported. 

Acreage  of  Crops  Harvested. — In  most  instances,  the  acreage 
reported  for  individual  crops  represents  the  area  harvested 
during  1959.  The  area  harvested  is  often  less  than  the  area 
planted.  For  fruit  orchards  and  groves,  vineyards,  and  planted 
nut  trees,  the  acreage  reported  represents  the  total  area  in 
both  bearing  and  nonbearing  trees  and  vines  as  of  the  date  of 
enumeration — usually  a  date  in  October,  November,  or  Decem- 
ber 1959.  For  soybeans,  cowpeas,  and  peanuts,  the  acreage 
grown  for  all  purposes  was  reported  as  well  as  the  acreage  har- 
vested for  specific  purposes.  For  velvet  beans,  only  the  acreage 
grown  was  reported.  As  the  enumeration  was  about  to  begin 
in  South  Florida  (those  counties  in  which  the  enumeration  was 
begun  on  October  7),  an  instruction  was  issued  to  the  effect 
that  the  data  for  vegetables  and  potato  crops  should  relate 
to  a  full  year,  beginning  on  October  1,  1958,  and  ending  Sep- 
tember 30, 1959. 

Quantity  of  Crops  Harvested. — Except  for  citrus  fruits,  olives, 
avocados,  and  for  vegetable  and  potato  crops  in  South  Florida 
(see  preceding  paragraph)  data  for  quantity  harvested  relate 
to  the  calendar  year  1959.  For  citrus  fruits,  the  quantity 
harvested  from  the  bloom  of  1958  for  the  1958-59  marketing 
season  was  to  be  reported.  For  olives,  the  crop  harvested  in 
1959  was  to  be  reported  for  all  States  except  California  and 
Arizona.  Enumerators  in  those  two  States  were  Instructed  to 
report  olives  harvested  from  the  bloom  of  1958  during  the  1958- 
59  harvest  season  (September  15,  1958,  to  February  28,  1959). 
In  the  case  of  avocados,  the  data  for  California  were  to  relate 
to  the  quantity  harvested  from  the  bloom  of  1958  for  the 
marketing  season  that  extended  from  October  1,  1958  to  Sep- 
tember 30,  1959;  the  data  for  Florida  were  to  relate  to  the 
crop  harvested  for  the  marketing  season  that  extended  from 
July  1,  1959,  to  February  28,  1960.  Respondents  were  to 
estimate  quantities  not  yet  harvested  at  the  time  of 
enumeration. 

Unit  of  Measure. — The  unit  of  measure  in  which  quantities 
were  to  be  reported  has  varied  for  some  crops,  not  only  from 
State  to  State,  but  also  from  census  to  census.  The  aim  has 
been  to  permit  reporting  in  the  units  of  measure  currently 
in  use.  In  the  State  and  county  tables,  the  quantities  harvested 
for  each  crop  are  usually  expressed  in  the  unit  of  measure 
given  on  the  1959  agriculture  questionnaire.  In  1959,  for  corn 
and  Irish  potatoes,  a  choice  between  two  units  in  which  to 
report  the  production  was  given  in  some  States.  (See  the 
discussion  for  those  crops.)  To  provide  readily  comparable 
information,  data  published  in  earlier  reports  in  different  units 
of  measure  generally  have  been  converted  to  the  units  used  in 
1959. 

Corn. — In  the  1959  census,  detailed  questions  regarding  the 
purpose  for  which  corn  was  harvested  were  asked  in  all  States. 
For  most  States,  bushels  was  the  only  unit  specified  for  corn 


XX 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


for  grain.  In  some  areas,  however,  where  farmers  were  not 
accustomed  to  using  bushels  as  the  unit  of  measure,  the  question- 
naire contained  a  provision  for  the  quantity  of  corn  for  grain 
to  be  reported  either  in  bushels  (shelled  basis)  or  in  baskets  of 
ear  corn.  As  in  former  censuses,  some  reports  "were  received 
in  units  of  measure  other  than  bushels  or  baskets.  Prior  to 
tabulation,  all  reports  were  converted  to  bushels  (shelled  basis) 
on  the  basis  of  the  following  factors:  70  pounds  of  ear  corn, 
2  baskets  of  ears,  or  56  pounds  of  shelled  corn  equal  one  bushel. 
A  barrel  of  ear  corn  was  usually  considered  equal  to  5  bushels  of 
shelled  corn. 

Annual  Legumes. For  soybeans,  cowpeas,  and  peanuts,  the 

acres  and  quantity  grown  or  harvested  for  specific  purposes,  as 
well  as  the  total  acreage  grown  for  all  purposes,  were  obtained 
for  areas  where  these  crops  are  grown  extensively ;  for  velvet- 
beans,  only  the  total  grown  for  all  purposes  was  obtained.  For 
all  these  crops  except,  possibly  peanuts,  the  total  acreage  grown 
for  all  purposes  includes  some  acreage  that  was  plowed  under 
for  green  manure.  In  a  few  Southern  States,  separate  figures 
were  obtained  for  the  acres  grown  alone  and  the  acres  grown 
with  other  crops.  In  1959,  as  in  1954,  enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  report  green  soybeans  and  blackeyes  and  other  green 
cowpeas  harvested  for  sale  as  vegetables  and  not  as  annual 
legumes. 

Hay  Crops. — Data  for  the  total  acres  of  land  from  which  hay 
was  cut  exclude  the  acreage  in  sorghum,  soybean,  cowpea,  and 
peanut  hays.  These  crops  were  reported  in  separate  questions 
in  the  States  where  they  are  important.  To  obtain  the  total 
acres  from  which  other  hays  were  cut,  the  acres  of  the  various 
hay  crops,  including  grass  silage,  were  added  together  for  each 
county.  The  corresponding  totals  for  1954  were  obtained  by 
the  same  procedure.  For  the  1950  census,  however,  the  totals 
were  based  on  farmers'  own  reports  of  their  total  acreage  In 
harvested  hay  crops. 

The  questionnaire  contained  an  instruction  that  if  two  or  more 
cuttings  were  made  from  the  same  land,  the  total  production 
from  all  cuttings  was  to  be  reported  but  the  acres  cut  were  to 
be  counted  only  once.  In  cases  where  both  hay  and  grass  silage 
were  cut  from  the  same  land,  the  total  acreage  was  to  be  reported 
for  both  crops.  In  1959,  as  in  1954,  alfalfa  hay  included  alfalfa 
and  alfalfa  mixtures  for  hay  and  for  dehydrating;  clover  and 
timothy  hay  included  clover,  timothy,  and  mixtures  of  clover  and 
grasses;  small  grain  hay  included  oats,  wheat,  barley,  rye,  or 
other  small  grains  cut  for  hay.  The  hay  crops  listed  on  the 
questionnaire  varied  somewhat  from  one  State  or  region  to 
another.  The  kinds  of  hay  to  be  included  in  separate  questions 
can  be  determined  for  a  specific  State  from  reference  to  the 
facsimile  of  the  questionnaire  that  is  in  the  appendix. 

The  tonnage  of  hay,  including  alfalfa  hay  for  dehydrating,  is 
given  on  a  dry-weight  basis.  Prior  to  tabulation,  production 
reported  in  green  weight  was  converted  to  its  dry-weight  equiv- 
alent by  dividing  by  3.  However,  the  production  of  grass  silage 
is  given  in  terms  of  green  weight. 

Field  Seed  Crops. — The  field  seed  crops  listed  on  each  version 
of  the  questionnaire  were  limited  to  those  considered  most  im- 
portant within  the  given  State.  Each  version  of  the  question- 
naire contained  space  for  listing  other  field  seed  crops  in  order 
to  facilitate  the  reporting  of  all  field  seed  crops  harvested. 
Quantity  harvested  was  to  be  reported  in  terms  of  clean  seed 
for  most  field  seed  crops.  Bluegrass,  or  Junegrass  seed,  was  to 
be  reported  in  terms  of  green  seed  for  Iowa,  Kansas,  Kentucky, 
Minnesota,  Missouri,  Nebraska,  North  Dakota,  South  Dakota,  and 
Tennessee.  No  mention  was  made  of  "green-weight  basis"  for 
other  States  where  this  crop  was  to  be  reported  in  the  "All  other" 
question. 

Irish  Potatoes  and  Sweetpotatoes. — For  Irish  potatoes  and 
sweetpotatoes  (including  yams),  the  total  quantity  harvested  was 
to  be  reported  for  each  crop  in  all  cases,  whether  harvested  for 


home  use  or  for  sale  or  whether  used  for  livestock  feed.  The 
acreage  harvested  was  to  be  reported  for  each  crop  only  In  cases 
where  the  quantity  amounted  to  20  or  more  bushels  (or  the 
approximate  equivalent  In  terms  of  hundredweights,  barrels,  or 
pounds,  as  explained  on  different  versions  of  the  questionnaire). 
This  method  of  reporting  was  designed  to  facilitate  the  enumera- 
tion of  potatoes  harvested  on  small  plots  for  home  use.  Essen- 
tially the  same  procedure  was  followed  in  both  1954  and  1950. 
In  earlier  censuses,  however,  the  acreage  of  Irish  potatoes  and 
sweetpotatoes  was  to  be  reported  in  all  cases,  even  when  produc- 
tion was  solely  for  home  use.  Therefore,  the  data  on  acres  for 
censuses  prior  to  1950  are  not  fully  comparable  with  those  for 
the  last  three  censuses,  especially  in  counties  or  States  where 
production  is  largely  for  home  use. 

The  unit  of  measure  in  which  quantity  was  to  be  reported 
varied  from  one  State  or  region  to  another  to  correspond  with 
the  units  most  commonly  used  in  a  given  area.  In  27  States, 
the  questionnaire  provided  a  choice  for  reporting  either  bushels 
or  100-pound  bags  (hundredweights).  The  published  data  for 
counties  and  States  are  in  terms  of  bushels. 

Berries  and  Other  Small  Fruits. — The  question  for  berries  and 
other  small  fruits  related  specifically  to  the  acreages  and  quanti- 
ties harvested  for  sale.  Only  tame  or  cultivated  berries  were  to 
be  reported  except  for  the  New  England  States,  where  wild  blue- 
berries were  also  to  be  Included.  Enumerators  were  Instructed 
always  to  report  the  total  quantity  of  each  kind  of  berry  har- 
vested for  sale  but  to  report  the  area  harvested  only  when  It 
amounted  to  one-tenth  acre  or  more.  Nonbearing  areas  and  areas 
and  quantities  harvested  for  home  use  were  to  be  excluded.  The 
data  for  1959  and  1954  are  fully  comparable. 

Tree  Fruits,  Nuts,  and  Grapes. — In  1959,  as  in  1954,  fruit  trees, 
nut  trees,  and  grapevines  were  not  enumerated  for  farms  having 
a  combined  total  of  less  than  20  at  the  time  of  enumeration. 
Both  bearing  and  nonbearing  trees  and  vines  were  to  be  included 
but  not  any  that  had  been  abandoned.  For  censuses  prior  to 
1954,  all  fruit  or  nut  trees  and  grapevines  on  the  farm  were 
to  be  enumerated,  regardless  of  the  number.  Because  of  this 
change  In  enumeration  procedure,  the  data  for  1959  and  1954 
are  not  fully  comparable  with  those  for  earlier  censuses.  In 
commercial  fruit-producing  counties,  the  change  In  procedure 
may  have  had  a  considerable  effect  on  the  number  of  farms  re- 
porting without  causing  any  significant  changes  in  the  number 
of  trees  and  vines  nor  in  the  quantity  harvested.  In  counties 
where  most  of  the  trees  or  vines  are  in  small  plantings  and 
where  production  Is  largely  for  home-use,  however,  the  change 
may  have  caused  a  significant  reduction  not  only  in  the  number 
of  farms  reporting  but  also  in  the  number  of  trees  and  vines  and 
in  the  quantity  harvested. 

In  both  1959  and  1954,  the  area  in  fruit  orchards,  groves, 
vineyards,  and  planted  nut  trees  was  enumerated  when  there 
were  20  or  more  fruit  trees,  nut  trees,  and  grapevines.  In 
1950,  the  corresponding  area  was  enumerated  only  if  it  amounted 
to  one-half  acre  or  more.  In  censuses  prior  to  1950,  the  area  was 
to  be  reported  regardless  of  its  size  or  of  the  number  of  trees 
and  vines.  Enumerators  frequently  omitted  the  fractional  acre- 
ages in  small  plantings  and  home  orchards,  however.  In  some 
counties,  small  plantings  or  home  orchards  comprise  a  sizeable 
proportion  of  the  total  fruit  and  nut  acreage.  For  those 
counties,  the  change  from  one  census  to  another  in  acreage  of 
land  in  fruits  and  nuts  may  not  be  due  to  fact  but  merely  to 
differences  in  enumeration. 

In  1959,  California  was  the  only  State  for  which  the  acreage 
in  each  individual  fruit  and  nut  crop  was  obtained.  In  1954, 
such  acreage  was  also  obtained  for  Arizona.  In  all  States,  the 
number  of  bearing  and  nonbearing  trees  or  vines  on  the  farm  at 
the  time  of  enumeration  and  the  quantity  harvested  In  1959 
were  to  be  reported  separately  for  each  fruit  and  nut  crop.  (Ex- 
ceptions In  the  harvest  period  for  citrus  fruits,  avocados,  and 


INTRODUCTION

olives  are  described  on  p.  XIX.)  The  unit  of  measure  in  which 
quantities  were  to  be  reported  varied  from  one  State  to  another. 
Tables  in  this  report  show  quantities  in  the  unit  of  measure 
appearing  on  the  1959  questionnaire  used  in  the  State. 

Nursery  and  Greenhouse  Products. — The  questions  about  nursery 
and  greenhouse  products  related  only  to  products  grown  on  the 
place  for  sale.  Crops  bought  for  resale  without  additional  cul- 
tivation were  to  be  excluded.  The  area  used  for  growing  and 
the  value  of  sales  were  to  be  reported  separately  for  each  of 
three  groups,  as  follows : 

a.  Nursery  products,   (trees,  shrubs,  vines,  and  ornamentals). 

b.  Cut  flowers,  potted  plants,  florist  greens,  and  bedding  plants. 
For  these  items,  the  area  grown  in  the  open  was  to  be  re- 
ported separately  from  the  area  grown  under  glass. 

c.  Vegetables  grown  under  glass,  flower  seeds,  vegetable  seeds, 
vegetable  plants,  bulbs,  and  mushrooms.  For  these  items, 
the  area  grown  in  the  open  was  to  be  reported  separately 
from  the  area  grown  under  glass  or  in  the  house. 

The  data  obtained  for  1959  are  comparable  with  those  for 
1954  and  1950  since  the  questions  asked  were  essentially  the 
same  In  the  three  censuses.  Detailed  data  regarding  the  pro- 
duction and  sale  of  nursery,  greenhouse,  and  other  horticultural 
products  on  farms  having  sales  of  $2,000  will  be  published  In 
volume  V,  part  1. 

Forest  Products. — The  forest  products  data  obtained  in  the 
Census  of  Agriculture  relate  only  to  the  products  cut  on  farms. 
Commercial  logging,  timber  operations,  and  forest  products  grown 
or  cut  on  nonfarm  places  are  excluded.  Therefore,  the  data  in 
this  report  do  not  represent  the  total  forestry  output  or  income 
for  a  county  or  State. 

The  questions  included  on  the  1959  agriculture  questionnaire 
are  more  detailed  than  those  asked  in  the  1954  Census.  Value 
was  obtained  for  the  sale  of  standing  timber  or  trees  and  for 
the  sale  of  poles  and  piling,  bark,  bolts,  and  mine  timbers.  The 
quantity  cut,  whether  for  home  use  or  sale,  and  the  quantity  sold 
were  obtained  for  individual  forestry  products  such  as  firewood 
and  fuelwood,  fence  posts,  sawlogs  and  veneer  logs.  Data  relating 
to  pulpwood,  Christmas  trees,  maple  trees,  and  maple  syrup  were 
obtained  in  States  where  such  products  are  important 
commercially. 

Value  of  Crops  Harvested. — The  total  value  of  crops  harvested 
represents  the  estimated  value  of  all  crops  harvested  during  the 
crop  year  1959.  It  includes  the  value  of  quantities  consumed 
on  farms  as  food,  feed,  seed,  etc.,  as  well  as  quantities  sold. 
Farmers  were  not  asked  to  report  values  of  crops  harvested ; 
the  values  were  calculated  in  the  Processing  Office.  For  individ- 
ual crops,  the  quantity  harvested  was  multiplied  by  the  average 
price  at  which  the  crop  was  sold  in  the  State.  State  average 
prices  were  furnished  to  the  Bureau  of  the  Census  by  the  Agricul- 
tural Marketing  Service  of  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture. 
They  are  based  on  reports  received  from  a  sample  of  farmers  and 
dealers.  Quantities  harvested  were  not  obtained  for  vegetables 
nor  for  nursery  and  greenhouse  products.  Therefore,  for  those 
crops,  the  value  of  sales,  as  obtained  in  the  enumeration,  was  used 
in  the  calculation  of  total  value  of  crops  harvested. 

Value  of  Crops  Sold. — The  questionnaire  required  value  of  sales 
of  crops  to  be  reported  only  for  total  vegetables,  nursery  and 
greenhouse  products,  and  certain  forest  products.  For  all  other 
crops,  the  value  of  sales  was  calculated  on  a  county  level  during 
processing  operations  by  multiplying  the  State  average  prices 
by  either  the  quantity  sold  or  the  quantity  harvested.  Reports 
of  quantity  sold  were  obtained  during  the  enumeration  only  for 
some  of  the  major  field  crops.  Quantity  harvested  was  used  In 
the  calculation  of  value  of  crops  sold  for  such  crops  as  cotton, 
tobacco,  etc.,  that  are  customarily  grown  for  sale.  The  procedures 
used  for  the  various  crops  are  described  on  page  XXV.    They 


are  similar  to  the  procedures  followed  in  1954.    In  1950,  values 
of  crops  sold  were  obtained  for  each  farm  during  the  enumeration. 

Irrigation 

Definition  of  Irrigated  Land. — Irrigated  land  is  defined  as  land 
watered  for  agricultural  purposes  by  artificial  means.  These 
means  included  subirrigation  as  well  as  systems  whereby  water 
was  applied  to  the  ground  surface,  either  directly  or  by  sprinklers. 
Land  flooded  for  rice  cultivation  was  considered  as  irrigated. 
Land  flooded  during  high-water  periods  was  to  be  included  as 
irrigated  only  if  water  was  directed  to  agricultural  use  by  dams, 
canals,  or  other  works.  The  definition  of  irrigated  land  specif- 
ically excluded  land  where  the  "water  table",  or  natural  level 
of  underground  water,  was  controlled  by  drainage  works  with  no 
additional  water  brought  in  by  canals  or  pipes. 

Enumeration  of  Irrigated  Land. — A  question  on  total  land  irri- 
gated was  asked  in  all  States,  with  the  exception  of  Alaska.  The 
acreage  reported  for  this  question  includes  not  only  irrigated 
cropland  but  also  any  other  land  that  was  irrigated  in  1959. 

The  questionnaires  used  in  the  17  Western  States,  Louisiana, 
and  Hawaii  included  several  additional  questions  regarding  irri- 
gation. These  questions  related  to  the  acreage  of  land  irrigated 
by  sprinklers,  irrigated  land  from  which  crops  were  harvested, 
specific  crops  irrigated,  and  source  of  irrigation  water.  Such 
additional  data,  for  irrigated  farms,  are  presented  in  county 
table  la  for  these  States. 

Statistics  on  the  irrigation  enterprises  which  supplied  irriga- 
tion water  were  collected  in  the  1959  Census  of  Irrigation  and 
are  published  in  Volume  III,  "Irrigation  of  Agricultural  Lands". 
This  report  contains  a  considerable  amount  of  data  about  irri- 
gation for  the  17  Western  States  and  Louisiana. 

Irrigated  Farms. — All  farms  reporting  any  land  irrigated  in 
1959  are  counted  as  irrigated  farms. 

Land  in  Irrigated  Farms. — Data  for  land  in  irrigated  farms  ac- 
cording to  use  relate  to  the  entire  acreage  in  these  farms,  in- 
cluding land  that  was  not  irrigated. 

Land  Irrigated. — Data  for  land  irrigated  relate  only  to  that 
part  of  the  land  in  irrigated  farms  that  was  watered  by  artificial 
means  at  any  time  in  1959.  Separate  figures  are  given  for  farms 
reporting  land  irrigated  by  sprinklers  whether  or  not  the  land 
was  also  irrigated  by  other  means.  Additional  figures  are  given 
for  farms  reporting  land  irrigated  by  sprinklers  only.  Data 
on  sprinkler  irrigation  were  not  obtained  in  the  1954  census. 

Irrigated  Cropland  Harvested. — The  data  for  irrigated  crop- 
land harvested  relate  to  all  irrigated  land  from  which  crops 
were  harvested  in  1959,  regardless  of  the  method  of  irrigation. 
An  instruction  on  the  questionnaire  reminded  enumerators  and 
respondents  to  include  irrigated  land  from  which  hay  was  cut, 
irrigated  land  in  both  bearing  and  nonbearing  fruit  and  nut 
crops,  and  irrigated  land  from  which  volunteer  crops  were 
harvested.  Each  irrigated  acre  was  to  be  reported  only  once, 
regardless  of  how  many  crops  were  harvested  from  it. 

Other  Irrigated  Land. — This  classification  was  obtained  by 
subtraction  of  the  acreage  of  irrigated  cropland  harvested 
from  the  acreage  of  total  land  irrigated.  It  represents  primarily 
irrigated  cropland  not  harvested  and  irrigated  pasture  or 
grazing  land. 

Farms  Irrigated  By  Number  of  Acres  Irrigated. — All  farms  on 
which  any  land  was  irrigated  in  1959  are  classified  according 
to  the  number  of  acres  irrigated  in  county  table  la  for  the  17 
Western  States,  Louisiana,  and  Hawaii.  This  classification  is 
based  on  total  land  irrigated.  Therefore,  It  includes  not  only  the 
Irrigated  land  from  which  crops  were  harvested  but  also  all  other 
irrigated  land,  regardless  of  use. 

Land  Irrigated  By  Source  of  Water. — The  agriculture  question- 
naire contained  a  question  as  to  what  proportion  of  irrigated 
water  used  on  the  farm  in  1959  was  obtained  from  ground- 
water, surface-water,  and  irrigation-organization  sources.  Re- 
spondents were  asked  to  report  separately  the  percentage  of 


XXII 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


water  obtained  from  each  source.  The  number  of  acres  that 
were  irrigated  by  water  from  each  source  or  combination  of 
sources  was  calculated  during  office  processing  operations  by 
applying  the  percentages  to  the  total  land  irrigated. 

Ground-water  sources  relate  to  wells  (pumped  or  flowing)  and 
springs ;  surface-water  sources  relate  to  streams,  lakes,  reservoirs, 
and  sewage  and  drainage  ditches.  For  each  of  these  sources, 
only  water  obtained  by  pumps  or  other  works  operated  as  part 
of  the  operator's  own  farm  or  as  part  of  another  single  farm  was 
to  be  included.  Irrigation-organization  sources  relate  to  irriga- 
tion enterprises  organized  to  supply  water  to  a  group  of  farms, 
regardless  of  how  or  where  the  enterprise  obtained  the  water. 
The  irrigation  enterprise  may  be  a  legal  organization  or  a  group 
of  farmers  informally  organized  to  operate  a  supply  ditch  or 
other  works  to  provide  water  for  their  own  farms. 

Land-Use  Practices 

Summary  Information. — The  1959  data  for  land-use  practices 
are  estimates  based  on  reports  obtained  from  only  a  sample  of 
farms.  Comparable  data  are  not  presented  for  1954  because 
questions  about  land-use  practices  were  included  on  the  1954 
questionnaire  for  only  a  limited  number  of  States.  The  various 
land-use  practices  relate  to  methods  for  reducing  soil  erosion, 
either  by  improving  the  soil,  controlling  the  run-off  of  water,  or 
reducing  the  blowing  of  topsoil. 

Cropland  in  Cover  Crops. — The  data  relate  to  land  on  which 
cover  crops  were  turned  under  for  green  manure  in  1959  and 
which  was  then  planted  to  another  crop.  The  entire  acreage  of 
cover  crops  so  used  was  to  be  reported  even  if  the  following  crop 
failed. 

Cropland  Used  for  Orain  or  Row  Crops  Farmed  on  the  Contour. — 
This  item  relates  to  land  on  which  grain  or  row  crops  were 
planted  in  level  rows  around  the  slope  of  a  hill. 

Land  in  Strip-Cropping  Systems  for  Soil-Erosion  Control. — Strip- 
cropping  was  defined  as  the  practice  of  alternating  close-sown 
crops  with  strips  or  bands  of  row  crops  or  of  alternating  either 
close-sown  or  row  crops  with  bands  of  cultivated  fallow  land. 
The  published  data  refer  to  the  total  acreage  of  all  fields  and 
tracts  in  which  strip-cropping  was  practiced  in  1959. 

System  of  Terraces  on  Crop  and  Pasture  Land. — This  item  re- 
lates to  the  acreage  in  ridge-type  or  channel-type  terraces  con- 
structed on  sloping  cropland  and  pastureland. 

Livestock  and  Poultbt 

Inventories. — Data  for  livestock  and  poultry  on  farms  relate 
to  the  number  on  hand  at  the  time  of  enumeration.  All  live- 
stock and  poultry,  including  those  being  kept  or  fed  under  con- 
tract, were  to  be  enumerated  on  the  farm  or  ranch  where  they 
were,  regardless  of  who  owned  them.  Livestock  in  transit  from 
one  grazing  area  to  another  or  grazing  in  national  forests,  graz- 
ing districts,  open  range,  or  on  land  used  under  permit  were  to  be 
reported  as  being  on  the  place  where  the  person  who  had  control 
over  them  had  his  headquarters. 

The  time  of  year  at  which  livestock  and  poultry  are  enumerated 
affects  the  data.  Therefore,  the  date  of  enumeration  needs  to 
be  considered  when  totals  for  the  various  censuses  are  compared. 
Both  the  1959  and  the  1954  census  data  represent  fall  inven- 
tories. These  censuses  came  at  a  time  of  large-scale  movement 
of  flocks  and  herds  from  one  range  to  another,  from  ranch  to 
feed  lot,  and  from  farm  or  ranch  to  market. 

The  censuses  of  1920,  1925,  1935,  and  1945  were  taken  as  of 
January  1  and  those  of  1930,  1940,  and  1950,  as  of  April  1.  A 
count  made  in  April  varies  considerably  from  one  made  in  Jan- 
uary. In  most  areas  a  large  number  of  animals  are  born  between 
January  and  April.  A  considerable  number  of  older  animals  die 
or  are  sold  during  the  same  period.    In  the  range  States,  along 


with  the  change  in  season  and  grazing  condition,  sheep  and  cattle 
are  moved  from  one  locality  or  county  to  another.  This  movement 
may  affect  the  comparability  of  data  for  counties  and,  in  some 
cases,  for  States.  The  comparability  of  data  by  age  has  been 
affected  also  by  changes  in  the  questions  from  one  census  to 
another. 

Milk  Cows,  Cows  Milked,  Milk  Produced,  and  Butter. — Data  on 
the  number  of  milk  cows,  cows  milked,  and  milked  produced  relate 
to  the  day  preceding  the  enumeration.  Data  for  butter  churned 
were  obtained  only  for  14  States  and  relate  to  the  calendar  week 
preceding  the  enumeration.  The  data  for  cows  milked  yesterday 
and  milk  produced  yesterday  are  not  given  in  this  volume.  These 
figures  were  obtained  primarily  to  serve  the  needs  of  the  U.S. 
Department  of  Agriculture  in  making  monthly  and  annual  esti- 
mates of  milk  production.  These  figures  can  be  made  available, 
at  a  small  cost,  to  others  who  express  an  interest  in  them. 

Whole  Milk  and  Cream  Sold. — Data  for  whole  milk  and  cream 
sold  relate  to  the  entire  year  1959  and  are  estimates  based  on 
reports  obtained  for  farms  in  the  sample.  All  milk  and  cream 
sold  from  the  farm  (except  quantities  purchased  from  some 
other  place  and  then  resold)  were  to  be  included,  regardless 
of  who  shared  the  receipts.  The  questionnaire  provided  three 
alternative  units  of  measure  for  reporting  the  quantity  of  milk 
sold — pounds  of  milk,  gallons  of  milk,  and  pounds  of  butterfat. 
The  respondent  was  thus  permitted  to  report  quantity  according 
to  the  unit  of  measure  in  which  payment  was  received.  In  the 
State  and  county  tables,  the  data  for  milk  are  given  in  the  unit 
of  measure  most  commonly  used  in  the  State.  Pounds  of  butter- 
fat  were  converted  into  gallons  or  pounds  of  whole  milk  on  the 
basis  of  the  average  butterfat  content  of  milk  as  shown  by  data 
furnished  by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of  the  U.S. 
Department  of  Agriculture. 

Sows  and  Gilts  Farrowing. — In  the  1959  census,  data  were  ob- 
tained for  the  number  of  litters  farrowed  between  December  1, 
1958,  and  June  1, 1959,  and  from  June  1  to  December  1, 1959.  In 
the  1954  census,  data  were  obtained  for  the  sows  and  gilts  that 
farrowed  rather  than  for  the  number  of  litters. 

Sheep,  Lambs,  and  Wool. — In  the  1959  census,  questions  about 
sheep,  lambs,  and  wool  were  asked  in  all  States.  Data  on 
shearings  and  on  amount  of  wool  shorn  were  obtained  for  lambs 
and  sheep  separately.  In  the  1954  census,  sheep  and  lamb  inven- 
tories were  not  obtained  for  Florida,  Georgia,  and  South  Carolina. 

Goats  and  Mohair. — In  1959,  questions  on  goats,  kids,  and  mo- 
hair appeared  on  the  questionnaires  for  the  following  nine  States : 
Arizona,  California,  Missouri,  Nevada,  New  Mexico,  Oklahoma, 
Oregon,  Texas,  and  Utah.  In  1954,  corresponding  data  were  ob- 
tained for  Louisiana,  New  Mexico,  Oklahoma,  Oregon,  Texas, 
Washington,  and  selected  counties  in  Missouri. 

Bees  and  Honey. — No  questions  on  bees  and  honey  were  in- 
cluded on  the  questionnaires  for  either  the  1959  or  the  1954 
census.  In  1959,  however,  enumerators  were  instructed  to  ob- 
tain agriculture  questionnaires  for  places  not  having  agricultural 
operations  if  they  were  engaged  in  beekeeping.  The  number  of 
hives  of  bees  and  the  amount  of  honey  sold  were  to  be  reported 
in  the  "Remarks"  space  of  the  questionnaire.  Data  for  bees 
and  honey  are  not  included  in  this  report. 

Value  of  Livestock  on  Farms. — To  obtain  the  value  of  livestock 
on  farms,  the  number  of  each  class  of  livestock  or  poultry  on  hand 
was  multiplied  by  the  State  average  price  for  1959,  as  furnished 
by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of  the  U.S.  Department  of 
Agriculture.  Comparable  data  for  1954  were  compiled  by  the 
same  method  on  the  basis  of  average  prices  for  that  year. 

Sales  of  Live  Animals. — Data  for  the  number  and  value  of  ani- 
mals sold  alive  in  1959  are  estimates  based  on  reports  for  sample 
farms  only.  Corresponding  data  for  1954  were  obtained  for  all 
farms.    The  dollar  value  of  sales  was  obtained  from  the  farmer

for  cattle,  calves,  and  horses  and  mules.  Average  value  per  head 
for  other  livestock  sold  was  obtained  from  the  U.S.  Department 
of  Agriculture.  In  the  1959  census,  respondents  were  asked  to 
report  separately  the  number  of  live  animals  already  sold  and  the 
number  estimated  to  be  sold  between  the  time  of  enumeration  and 
the  end  of  the  year.  This  separation  of  reports  for  the  number 
sold  and  to  be  sold  was  designed  to  assure  more  complete  coverage 
of  all  livestock  sales  made  during  the  year.  In  the  1954  census, 
only  totals  for  the  entire  year  were  obtained  though  reference 
was  made  to  animals  to  be  sold  between  enumeration  and  the  end 
of  the  year. 

Sales  of  Poultry  and  Poultry  Products.-— For  both  the  1959  and 
the  1954  Censuses,  sales  of  chickens  were  obtained  for  two  groups : 
(1)  broilers  and  (2)  other  chickens.  The  enumeration  of  broiler 
sales  presents  prob'ems  arising  from  the  varied  contractual  ar- 
rangements under  which  broilers  are  produced.  The  question- 
naire contained  an  instruction  to  the  effect  that  all  broilers  grown 
for  others  under  contract  were  to  be  reported  as  sold.  During 
office  processing  operations,  the  data  reported  for  inventories  and 
sales  of  chickens  four  months  old  and  over,  chicken  eggs  sold,  and 
broilers  sold  were  carefully  examined.  Obvious  inconsistencies 
indicating  confusion  between  broilers  and  other  chickens  were 
corrected  on  the  basis  of  estimated  values  and,  for  sample  farms, 
on  the  basis  of  data  reported  for  expenditures  for  feed,  poultry 
and  livestock  purchases,  hired  labor,  etc. 

Questions  relating  to  poultry  other  than  chickens  (and  broilers) 
were  generally  the  same  in  1959  as  In  1954.  In  the  1959  census, 
however,  only  total  numbers  were  obtained  for  turkeys  and  turkey 
fryers  raised  and  for  turkey  hens  kept  for  breeding  whereas  the 
1954  questionnaire  asked  for  a  breakdown  between  light  and  heavy 
breeds.  Also,  for  poultry  other  than  chickens  and  turkeys,  the 
1959  census  obtained  the  number  sold  whereas  the  1954  census 
obtained  the  number  raised. 

Classification  of  Farms 

Scope  of  Classification. — Data  for  land  in  farms,  and  for  crop- 
land harvested  in  farms  classified  by  size,  by  color  of  operator  and 
by  tenure  of  operator  were  tabulated  for  all  farms.  However, 
most  of  the  detailed  data  by  size  of  farm,  by  color  of  operator,  by 
tenure  of  operator,  by  economic  class,  and  by  type  of  farm  are 
estimates  based  on  farms  in  the  sample.  The  farm  classifications 
by  size  of  farm,  color  of  operator,  tenure  of  operator,  economic 
class  of  farm,  and  type  of  farm  were  made  in  the  processing 
office  on  the  basis  of  data  reported  on  each  questionnaire. 

Farms  by  Size.— Farms  were  classified  by  size  according  to  the 
total  land  area  established  for  each  farm.  The  same  classifica- 
tion was  used  for  all  States.  According  to  definition,  a  farm  is 
essentially  an  operating  unit,  not  an  ownership  tract.  All  land 
operated  by  one  person  or  partnership  represents  one  farm.  In 
the  case  of  a  landlord  who  has  assigned  land  to  croppers  or  other 
tenants,  the  land  assigned  to  each  cropper  or  tenant  is  considered 
a  separate  farm  even  though  the  landlord  may  operate  the  entire 
landholding  as  one  unit  In  respect  to  supervision,  equipment,  rota- 
tion practice,  purchase  of  supplies,  or  sale  of  products.  In  some 
parts  of  the  South,  a  special  Landlord-Tenant  Questionnaire  was 
used  to  assure  an  accurate  enumeration  of  each  unit  within  a 
multiple-unit  operation.  A  change  was  made  in  the  size  classifica- 
tion for  1959,  as  contrasted  with  several  preceding  years,  by  sub- 
dividing the  1,000-acre-and-over  group  and  by  combining  two 
previously  recognized  groups,  viz.,  10  to  29  acres  and  30  to  49 
acres. 

Farms  by  Color  of  Operator. — Farms  were  classified  by  color  of 
operator  into  two  groups,  "white"  and  "nonwhite."  "Nonwhite" 
Includes  primarily  Negro  and  Indian  operators  but  also  some  of 
other  racial  origin. 

Enumerators  were  instructed  to  report  the  race  on  the  basis  of 
their  own  observation  whenever  possible  rather  than  by  asking  the 
respondent. 


Farms  by  Tenure  of  Operator. — The  classification  of  farms  by 
tenure  of  operator  was  based  on  data  reported  for  land  owned, 
land  rented  from  others  or  worked  for  others  on  shares,  land 
managed  for  others,  and  land  rented  to  others  or  worked  on  shares 
by  others.  The  same  basis  of  classification  was  used  in  1959 
as  in  1954. 

For  1959,  each  questionnaire  was  coded,  during  the  editing  proc- 
ess, to  indicate  whether  it  represented  a  farm  operated  by  a  full 
owner,  part  owner,  manager,  or  tenant.  The  sample  question- 
naires for  tenants  were  given  a  code  to  indicate  the  kind  of 
tenant. 

The  various  classifications  of  tenure,  as  used  for  the  1959  census, 
are  defined  below : 

a.  Full  Owners  operate  only  land  they  own. 

b.  Part  Owners  operate  land  they  own  and  also  land  rented 
from  others. 

c.  Managers  operate  land  for  others  and  are  paid  a  wage  or 
salary  for  their  services.  Persons  acting  merely  as  care- 
takers or  hired  as  laborers  are  not  classified  as  managers.  If 
a  farm  operator  managed  land  for  others  and  also  operated 
land  on  his  own  account,  the  land  operated  on  his  own  ac- 
count was  considered  as  one  farm  and  the  land  managed  for 
others  as  a  second  farm.  If,  however,  he  managed  land  for 
two  or  more  employers,  all  the  managed  land  was  considered 
to  be  one  farm. 

d.  Tenants  rent  from  others  or  work  on  shares  for  others  all 
the  land  they  operate.  They  are  further  classified,  as  de- 
scribed below,  on  the  basis  of  rental  arrangements  in  regard 
to  the  payment  of  cash  rent,  sharing  of  crops,  sharing  of 
livestock  or  livestock  products,  and  the  furnishing  of  work 
power  by  the  landlord. 

(1)  Cash  Tenants  pay  cash  rent,  either  on  a  per-acre  basis  or 
for  the  farm  as  a  whole. 

(2)  Share-Cash  Tenants  pay  part  of  the  rent  in  cash  and  part 
in  a  share  of  the  crops  and/or  of  the  livestock  and  livestock 
products. 

(3)  Crop-Share  Tenants  pay  a  share  of  the  crops  but  not  of  the 
livestock  or  livestock  products. 

(4)  Livestock-Share  Tenants  pay  a  share  of  the  livestock  or 
livestock  products.  They  may  or  may  not  also  pay  a  share  of 
the  crops. 

(5)  Croppers  are  tenants  whose  landlords  furnished  all  the 
work  animals  or  tractor  power.  They  usually  work  under 
the  close  supervision  of  the  landowners  or  their  agents,  or 
other  farm  operators.  Also,  the  land  assigned  to  them  is 
often  merely  a  part  of  a  multi-unit  operation.  Croppers  may 
or  may  not  also  pay  cash  rent  or  a  share  of  crops,  livestock, 
or  livestock  products.  Data  for  croppers  are  available  for 
only  16  southern  States  and  Missouri. 

(6)  Other  Tenants  are  those  who  did  not  qualify  for  inclusion 
in  any  of  the  foregoing  subclassifications.  They  may  have 
had  the  use  of  land  rent-free  or  in  return  for  a  fixed  quantity 
of  products,  payment  of  taxes,  maintenance  of  buildings,  etc. 

(7)  Unspecified  Tenants  are  those  for  whom  the  rental  arrange- 
ment was  not  reported. 

The  definition  of  each  subclass  of  tenant  was  essentially  the 
same  for  earlier  censuses  as  for  1959.  In  1945,  however,  the 
enumerator  was  asked  to  determine  the  subclass  of  tenants 
whereas  in  other  censuses  all  classifications  were  made  during 
the  processing  of  questionnaires  on  the  basis  of  the  data 
reported.  The  procedure  used  in  1945  may  have  affected  the 
comparability  of  the  data,  especially  for  cash  tenants  and 
share-cash  tenants. 

Farms  by  Economic  Class. — The  totals  for  farms  by  economic 
class  are  estimates  for  all  farms  made  on  the  basis  of  data  re- 
ported only  for  the  sample  farms.  The  economic  classifications 
represent  groupings  of  farms  that  are  similar  in  characteristics 
and  size  of  operation.  The  economic  classes  were  established  on 
the  basis  of  one  or  more  of  four  factors:  (1)  total  value  of  all 
farm  products  sold,  (2)  number  of  days  the  farm  operator  worked 
off  the  farm,  (3)  the  age  of  the  farm  operator,  and  (4)  the  re- 
lationship of  income  received  by  the  operator  and  members  of  his 
household  from  nonfarm  sources  to  the  value  of  all  farm  products 
sold.  Institutional  farms,  Indian  reservations,  agricultural  ex- 
periment stations,  and  grazing  associations  were  always  classified 
as  "abnormal." 


xxrv 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


The  total  value  of  farm  products  sold  was  obtained  by  addi- 
tion of  the  reported  or  estimated  values  for  all  products  sold  from 
the  farm.  The  value  of  cattle  and  calves,  horses  and  mules,  dairy 
products,  some  poultry  products,  vegetables,  nursery  and  green- 
house products,  standing  timber,  and  miscellaneous  forest  prod- 
ucts was  obtained  from  the  farm  operator  during  the  enumera- 
tion. The  quantity  sold  was  obtained  during  enumeration  for 
corn,  sorghums,  small  grains,  hay,  small  fruits,  some  of  the  for- 
est products,  chickens  and  chicken  eggs,  hogs,  sheep,  and  goats. 
To  obtain  the  value  of  sales  of  these  products,  the  quantity  sold 
was  multiplied  by  State  average  prices. 

For  each  of  the  other  products,  the  entire  production  was  mul- 
tiplied by  the  State  average  price.  If  the  resulting  value  amount- 
ed to  $100  or  more,  the  entire  quantity  produced  was  considered 
as  sold.  This  procedure  was  followed  only  in  establishing  the 
economic  class  and  the  type  of  farm  but  was  not  used  in  estab- 
lishing the  total  value  of  products  sold  from  the  farm.  (See 
p.  XXV.) 

Farms  were  grouped  into  two  major  categories,  commercial 
farms  and  other  farms,  mainly  on  the  basis  of  total  value  of  prod- 
ucts sold.  The  1959  class  intervals  and  some  of  the  criteria  for 
determination  of  a  given  class  are  different  from  those  used  in 
1954  and  in  1950.  In  general,  for  1959,  all  farms  with  a  value 
of  sales  amounting  to  $2,500  or  more  were  classified  as  commercial. 
Farms  with  a  value  of  sales  of  $50  to  $2,499  were  classified  as  com- 
mercial if  the  farm  operator  was  under  65  years  of  age  and  (1)  he 
did  not  work  off  the  farm  100  or  more  days  during  the  year  and 
(2)  the  income  received  by  the  operator  and  members  of  his 
family  from  nonfarm  sources  was  less  than  the  value  of  all  farm 
products  sold.  The  remaining  farms  with  a  value  of  sales  of  $50 
to  $2,499  and  institutional  farms  and  Indian  reservations  were 
included  in  one  of  the  groups  of  "other  farms." 

Commercial  farms  were  divided  into  six  economic  classes  on 
the  basis  of  the  total  value  of  all  farm  products  sold,  as 
follows : 

Value  of  Farm 
Class  of  Farm  Products  sold 

I $40,000  and  over 

II $20,000     to    $39,999 

III $10,000    to    $19,999 

IV $5,000    to      $9,999 

V $2,500    to      $4,999 

VI* $50    to      $2,499 

•Provided  the  farm  operator  was  under  65  years  of  age,  and— 

(1)  he  did  not  work  off  the  farm  100  or  more  days,  and  (2)  the  In- 
come that  he  and  members  of  his  household  received  from  nonfarm 
sources  was  less  than  the  total  value  of  farm  products  sold. 

Other  farms  were  divided  into  three  economic  classes  as 
follows : 

a.  Class  VII,  Part-time. — Farms  with  a  value  of  sales  of  farm 
products  of  $50  to  $2,499  were  classified  as  "part-time"  if 
the  operator  was  under  65  years  of  age  and  he  either  worked 
off  the  farm  100  or  more  days  or  the  income  he  and  members 
of  his  household  received  from  nonfarm  sources  was  greater 
than  the  total  value  of  farm  products  sold. 

b.  Class  VIII,  Part-retirement. — Farms  with  a  value  of  sales 
of  farm  products  of  $50  to  $2,499  were  classified  as  "part- 
retirement"  if  the  farm  operator  was  65  years  old  or  over. 
Many  of  these  are  farms  on  which  the  income  from  nonfarm 
sources  was  greater  than  the  value  of  sales  of  agricultural 
products.  Others  are  residential,  subsistence,  or  marginal 
farms.  In  previous  censuses,  the  age  of  the  farm  operator 
was  not  a  criterion  for  grouping  farms  by  economic  class. 
Since  the  number  of  elderly  people  in  our  population  has 
been  steadily  Increasing  during  recent  years,  a  separate 
classification  for  farms  operated  on  a  part-retirement  basis 
was  considered  important  for  an  adequate  analysis  of  the 
agricultural  structure  of  a  county  or  State. 

c.  Class  IX,  Abnormal. — All  institutional  farms  and  Indian 
reservations  were  classified  as  "abnormal,"  regardless  of  the 
value  of  sales.     Institutional  farms  include  those  operated 


by   hospitals,   penitentiaries,   schools,  grazing   associations, 
government  agencies,  etc. 

Farms  by  Type. — The  data  for  farms  by  type  are  estimates 
bused  on  data  tabulated  for  the  farms  in  the  sample.  The 
type  represents  a  description  of  the  major  source  of  income  from 
farm  sales.  To  be  classified  as  a  particular  type,  a  farm  had  to 
have  sales  of  a  particular  product  or  group  of  products  amounting 
in  value  to  50  percent  or  more  of  the  total  value  of  all  farm  prod- 
ucts sold  during  the  year. 

The  types  of  farms,  together  with  the  products  on  which  type 
classification  is  based,  are  as  follows: 

Type  of  Farm  Source  of  Cash  Income 

(Products  with  sales  value  representing 
50%  or  more  of  total  value  of  all  farm 
products  sold) 

Cash-grain Corn,  sorghums,  small  grains,  soybeans 

for  beans,  cowpeas  for  peas,  dry  field 
and  seed  beans  and  peas. 

Tobacco Tobacco. 

Cotton Cotton. 

Other  field-crop Peanuts,   potatoes    (Irish   and  sweet), 

sugarcane  for  sugar  or  sirup,  sweet 
sorghums  for  sirup,  broomcorn,  pop- 
corn, sugar  beets,  mint,  hops,  and 
sugar  beet  seed. 

Vegetable Vegetables. 

Fruit-and-nut Berries,  other  small  fruits,  tree  fruits, 

grapes,  and  nuts. 

Poultry Chickens,   chicken    eggs,    turkeys,    and 

other  poultry  products. 

Dairy Milk  and  cream.     The  criterion  of  50 

percent  of  total  sales  was  modified  in 
the  case  of  dairy  farms.  A  farm  hav- 
ing value  of  sales  of  dairy  products 
amounting  to  less  than  50  percent  of 
the  total  value  of  farm  products  sold 
was  classified  as  a  dairy  farm,  if — 

(a)  Milk  and  cream  sold  accounted 
for  more  than  30  percent  of  the  total 
value  of  products  sold  and — 

(b)  Milk  cows  represented  50  percent 
or  more  of  total  cows  and — 

(c)  The  value  of  milk  and  cream  sold 
plus  the  value  of  cattle  and  calves 
sold  amounted  to  50  percent  or 
more  of  the  total  value  of  all  farm 
products  sold. 

Cattle,  calves,  hogs,  sheep,  goats,  wool 
and  mohair  except  for  farms  in  the  17 
Western  States,  Louisiana,  and 
Florida  that  qualified  as  livestock 
ranches. 

Farms  in  the  17  Western  States,  Louisi- 
ana, and  Florida  were  classified  as 
livestock  ranches  if  the  sales  of  live- 
stock, wool,  and  mohair  represented 
50  percent  or  more  of  the  total  value 
of  farm  products  sold  and  if  pasture- 
land  or  grazing  land  amounted  to  100 
or  more  acres  and  was  10  or  more 
times  the  acreage  of  cropland  har- 
vested. 

Field  seed  crops,  hay,  silage.  A  farm 
was  classified  as  general  also  if  it  had 
cash  Income  from  three  or  more 
sources  and  did  not  meet  the  criteria 
for  any  other  type. 

Nursery  and  greenhouse  products,  forest 
products,  mules,  horses,  colts  and 
ponies.  Also  all  institutional  farms 
and  Indian  reservations.

INTRODUCTION 


xxv 


The  type  classifications  were  essentially  the  same  for  the  1959 
as  for  the  1954  census  except  that  tobacco  farms  and  livestock 
ranches  were  not  separately  classified  in  1954.  Tobacco  was  in- 
cluded as  one  of  the  crops  used  in  the  classification  of  "other 
field  crop"  farms  in  1954.  The  farms  classified  as  livestock 
ranches  in  1959  would  have  been  classified  as  "livestock  other 
than  dairy  and  poultry"  in  1954  without  regard  to  the  acreage  in 
pasture. 

Value  of  Farm  Products  Sold. — Data  for  the  value  of  farm  prod- 
ucts sold  in  1959  were  obtained  by  enumeration  for  some  prod- 
ucts and  by  estimation  for  others.  The  questionnaire  used  for 
the  1959  census  provided  for  farm  operators  to  report  value  of 
sales  for  the  following  products : 


Vegetables 

Nursery  and  greenhouse  prod- 
ucts 
Standing  timber 
Miscellaneous  forest  products 


Miscellaneous  poultry  products 

Milk  and  cream 

Cattle 

Calves 

Horses,  mules,  colts,  and  ponies 


For  all  other  agricultural  products,  the  value  of  sales  was  esti- 
mated during  the  office  processing.  The  State  average  prices 
used  for  calculating  the  value  of  farm  products  sold  were  fur- 
nished to  the  Bureau  by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of 
the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture.  One  of  three  following  pro- 
cedures was  used. 

(1)  For  the  products  for  which  data  on  quantities  sold  were 
obtained  during  enumeration,  the  State  average  prices  were  mul- 
tiplied by  the  county  totals  of  the  quantities  reported  as  sold  or 
the  quantities  reported  as  produced  for  sale.  The  following  prod- 
ucts were  covered  by  this  procedure : 

Corn  for  grain  Fence  posts 

Sorghums  for  grain,  seed,  sirup,    Sawlogs  and  veneer  logs 

or  dry  forage  Christmas  trees 

All  small  grains  Chickens  (broilers  and  others) 

Hay  crops  Chicken  eggs 

All  berries  and  small  fruits  *  Hogs  and  pigs 

Firewood  and  fuelwood  Sheep  and  lambs 

Pulpwood  Goats  and  kids 

1  Adjustment  made  for  cranberries  based  on  Cranberry  Payment 
Program. 

(2)  For  most  of  the  agricultural  products  which  are  cus- 
tomarily raised  for  sale,  the  entire  quantity  produced  was 
considered  to  be  sold.  The  State  average  prices  were,  accordingly, 
multiplied  by  the  county  total  of  production.  The  following  crops 
were  covered  by  this  procedure : 


Cotton 

Popcorn 

Sugar  beets  for  sugar 

Broomcorn 


Sugarcane  for  sugar 

Tobacco 

Wool 

Mohair 


(3)  For  all  other  crops,  the  State  average  prices  were  mul- 
tiplied by  the  quantities  sold  as  estimated  on  the  basis  of  crop- 
disposition  data  furnished  by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service, 
data  reported  in  questions  for  "other  crops"  on  the  1959  question- 
naire, or  data  obtained  from  earlier  censuses. 

For  all  tree  fruits,  nuts,  and  grapes,  the  entire  quantity  pro- 
duced was  considered  as  sold,  except  for  apples,  apricots,  sour  and 
sweet  cherries,  peaches,  plums,  prunes,  avocados,  tangerines, 
oranges,  and  grapefruit  in  States  where  a  portion  of  the  crop 
was  not  harvested  or  was  subjected  to  excess  cullage  as  Indicated 
by  data  obtained  from  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of 
the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture 

The  data  for  1959  are  comparable  with  those  for  1954  since 
essentially  the  same  procedures  were  used  in  both  censuses  for 
estimating  quantities  and  values  of  farm  products  sold.  In  1959, 
as  in  1954,  data  for  the  sales  of  farm  products  represent  total 
sales  for  the  entire  farm,  regardless  of  who  shared  the  receipts. 
For  tenant-operated  farms,  the  landlord's  share  of  agricultural 
products  was  considered  as  sold  provided  the  products  were 
moved  off  the  tenant  farm.  All  crops,  livestock,  and  poultry 
raised  under  a  contract  arrangement  were  considered  as  sold 
from  the  farm  where  they  were  raised.  For  institutional  farms, 
all  agricultural  items  produced  on  land  operated  by  the  institu- 
tion and  consumed  by  the  inmates  were  to  be  reported  as  sold. 

All  sales  data  relate  to  one  year's  farm  operations.  Crop  sales 
are  for  crops  harvested  during  the  crop  year,  whether  the  crops 
were  actually  sold  immediately  after  harvest  or  placed  in  storage 
for  later  sale.  Sales  of  livestock  and  livestock  products  relate 
to  the  calendar  year,  regardless  of  when  the  livestock  or  prod- 
ucts were  raised  or  produced.  All  wool  and  mohair  reported 
as  shorn  or  clipped  was  considered  as  sold. 

Enumerators  were  instructed  to  record  gross  values  of  quanti- 
ties sold,  with  no  deductions  for  feed,  seed,  fertilizer,  water,  labor, 
or  marketing  costs.  For  some  products,  however,  net  values  may 
have  been  reported.  In  the  case  of  milk,  particularly,  some  farm 
operators  may  have  reported  the  payments  they  received  as  the 
gross  value  of  sales,  even  though  the  buyer  had  deducted  handling 
and  hauling  charges  before  making  payment.  Adjustments  were 
made  in  the  data  reported  only  in  cases  of  obvious  error.

Table  24.  If  the  estimated  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  constitutes  more  than  75  percent  of  all  farms  in  the  universe,  a  better  approximation  to  the  sampling  reliability 
may  be  obtained  by  multiplying  the  percent  given  in  the  table  as  follows: 

1.  When  the  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  Is  75  percent  of  all  farms,  multiply  the  percent  error  by  0.50. 

2.  When  the  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  is  90  percent  of  all  farms,  multiply  the  percent  error  by  0.30. 
3-  When  the  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  is  95  percent  of  all  farms,  multiply  the  percent  error  by  0.20.

INTRODUCTION 

THE  1959  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE 


History  of  the  Census. — The  1959  Census  is  the  17th  nationwide 
agricultural  census.  The  first  agricultural  census  was  taken  in 
1810,  at  the  same  time  as  the  Sixth  Decennial  Census  of  Popu- 
lation. From  1850  to  1920,  an  agricultural  census  was  taken 
every  10  years.  With  increased  application  of  scientific  findings 
and  the  growing  use  of  mechanization  in  agriculture,  farming 
practices  were  changing  so  rapidly  that  facts  collected  at  10-year 
intervals  were  no  longer  adequate.  Aware  of  the  need  for  more 
accurate  and  timely  information,  the  Congress  in  1909  (36  stat. 
10,  sec.  31,  provided  for  a  census  to  be  taken  in  1915  and  every 
10  years  thereafter  which  was  to  be  in  addition  to  the  census  of 
agriculture  to  be  taken  at  the  time  of  the  decennial  census  of 
population.  The  1915  census  was  not  taken,  however,  because 
of  the  abnormal  conditions  created  by  World  War  I.  Beginning 
with  1920,  a  national  agricultural  census  has  been  taken  every 
5  years. 

Legal  Basis  for  the  Census. — The  1959  Census  of  Agriculture 
was  authorized  by  an  Act  of  Congress,  as  were  all  prior  censuses 
of  agriculture.  "Title  13,  United  States  Code-Census,"  codified  in 
August  1954,  and  amended  in  August  1957  and  September  1960, 
is  now  the  legal  basis  for  censuses  of  agriculture  and  other  cen- 
suses, and  surveys  conducted  by  the  Bureau  of  the  Census.  Sec- 
tion 142,  paragraph  (a),  of  Title  13  makes  provision  for  the 
Census  of  Agriculture.     It  reads  as  follows : 

"The  Secretary  shall,  beginning  in  the  month  of  October 
1959,  and  in  the  same  month  of  every  fifth  year  thereafter,  take 
a  census  of  agriculture,  provided  that  the  censuses  directed  to 
be  taken  in  October  1959  and  each  tenth  year  thereafter,  may, 
when  and  where  deemed  advisable  by  the  Secretary,  be  taken 
instead  in  conjunction  with  the  censuses  provided  in  section 
141  of  this  title."  (Section  141  relates  to  the  decennial  cen- 
suses of  population,  unemployment,  and  housing  to  be  taken 
as  of  the  first  day  of  April  of  each  decennial  year.)  Under 
authority  granted  by  Section  4  of  Title  13,  the  Secretary  of 
Commerce  delegated  "the  functions  and  duties  imposed  upon 
him  by  this  title"  to  the  Director  of  the  Bureau  of  the  Census. 

Pretest  of  the  1959  Census.— A  "pretest"'  of  the  field  procedures 
of  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture  was  conducted  in  17  counties 
of  the  United  States  during  the  fall  of  1958.  The  purpose  of  the 
pretest  was  to  provide  the  Bureau  with  a  measure  of  the  effective- 
ness of  the  questions  and  procedures  planned  for  the  1959 
nationwide  census.  Three  versions  of  the  agriculture  question- 
naire— the  first  one  for  Northern  States,  the  second  for  Southern 
States,  and  the  third  for  Western  States — were  used  in  the  pre- 
test. Each  version  contained  questions  appropriate  to  the  type 
of  agriculture  in  the  part  of  the  country  where  it  was  used.  All 
major  aspects  of  field  forms  and  procedures,  from  the  hiring  and 
training  of  crew  leaders  and  enumerators  to  actual  interviews 
with  farm  operators,  were  given  a  "trial  run"  in  each  of  the  17 
counties.  Preliminary  versions  of  reporting  forms,  maps,  pay- 
roll records,  training  guides,  and  instruction  manuals  were  sub- 
jected to  actual  use  under  conditions  simulating  those  expected 
in  the  nationwide  enumeration  conducted  in  the  fall  of  1959. 

In  making  final  preparations  for  the  1959  census,  the  staff  of 
the  Bureau  drew  heavily  on  the  results  of  the  pretest,  as  well  as 
on  experience  gained  from  previous  censuses. 

Training  Program  for  Personnel  for  Enumeration. — Every  per- 
son hired  to  do  work  in  connection  with  the  1959  Census  of  Agri- 
culture  received  specialized   training  for   his  job.     Staff   mem- 


bers of  the  Washington  and  Regional  Offices  of  the  Bureau  and 
of  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture  trained  approximately  110 
agriculture  field  assistants  and  2,100  crew  leaders.  The  crew 
leaders,  in  turn,  trained  and  supervised  approximately  30,000 
enumerators.  All  training  was  presented  according  to  procedures 
contained  in  various  guides  and  manuals  prepared  by  the  Bureau. 
The  training  program  included  filmstrips,  map-reading,  practice 
interviewing,  and  practice  filling  of  questionnaires  and  other 
census  forms.  In  most  instances,  training  sessions  were  held 
near  the  areas  in  which  employees  worked  and  immediately  prior 
to  the  beginning  of  their  assignments. 

Enumeration  Period. — The  actual  enumeration  in  the  conter- 
minous United  States  (see  page  XIV)  started  at  dates  varying 
from  October  7  to  November  18,  1959.  In  general,  starting  dates 
were  based  upon  regional  variations  in  harvesting  seasons  and 
on  weather  conditions.  The  primary  aim  was  to  have  the 
enumeration  late  enough  to  follow  the  harvesting  of  the  bulk 
of  important  crops  and  early  enough  to  precede  the  advent  of 
winter  weather  with  the  attending  unfavorable  travel  conditions. 
The  bulk  of  the'  enumeration  work  was  completed  within  three 
to  four  weeks  after  the  starting  date.  In  Hawaii,  the  enumera- 
tion was  made  during  the  months  of  December  1959  and  January 
1960 ;  and  in  Alaska,  during  April  1960. 

Enumeration  starting  dates  for  the  censuses  of  1959  and  1954 
are  given  in  State  table  11,  together  with  figures  showing  the 
percentage  of  farms  enumerated  in  the  State  during  weekly  pe- 
riods. The  average  enumeration  date  for  the  1959  census  for 
each  county  is  given  in  county  table  6. 

Data  for  inventory  items — land  in  farms,  machinery  and  equip- 
ment, livestock,  and  poultry — relate  to  the  situation  at  the  actual 
time  of  enumeration  of  each  individual  farm.  Data  for  acres, 
production,  and  sales  of  crops  relate  generally  to  the  crops  har- 
vested during  the  crop  year  1959,  regardless  of  whether  and  when 
they  were  sold  while  data  for  sales  of  livestock  and  livestock 
products  relate  to  the  calendar  year  1959.  Since  the  enumera- 
tion was  made  before  the  end  of  1959,  special  emphasis  was 
placed  upon  the  inclusion  of  estimates  for  crops  yet  to  be  sold 
and  for  livestock  and  livestock  products  expected  to  be  sold  in 
the  period  from  the  time  of  enumeration  to  the  end  of  the  cal- 
endar year.  Instructions  on  the  questionnaire  and  the  wording 
of  questions  were  designed  to  assure  that  full  crop-year  or 
calendar-year  data  would  be  reported.  For  example,  "How  much 
of  this  year's  crop  was  or  will  be  sold?" 

ENUMERATION  FORMS  AND  PROCEDURES 

Authorization.— Section  5  of  Title  13  of  the  United  States  Code 
authorizes  the  preparation  of  forms  and  questionnaires  used  in 
the  census.    It  reads  as  follows : 

"The  Secretary  shall  prepare  schedules,  and  shall  determine 
the  inquiries,  and  the  number,  form,  and  subdivisions  thereof, 
for  the  statistics,  surveys,  and  censuses  provided  for  in  this 
title." 

The  Agriculture  Questionnaire. — The  questionnaire  for  the  1959 
Census  of  Agriculture  was  prepared  by  the  staff  of  the  Bureau. 
Selection  of  the  inquiries  was  based  on  the  results  of  the  1958 
pretest  and  experience  gained  in  earlier  censuses.  Careful  con- 
sideration was  given  to  such  factors  as  the  current  availability

UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


of  data  from  other  sources,  the  possibility  of  obtaining  data  by 
methods  other  than  a  census,  the  adequacy  of  the  data  that  might 
be  obtained,  and  the  need  for  and  usefulness  of  the  data.  Two 
committees  gave  advice  and  counsel  to  the  Bureau.  One  of  these, 
a  Special  Advisory  Committee,  was  composed  of  members  desig- 
nated by  the  organizations  they  represented,  following  an  invita- 
tion from  the  Director  of  the  Bureau  of  the  Census  to  name  a 
representative  to  serve  in  an  advisory  capacity.  The  Special 
Advisory  Committee  for  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture  was 
made  up  of  one  representative  from  each  of  the  following:  Agri- 
cultural Publishers  Association,  American  Association  of  Land- 
Grant  Colleges  and  State  Universities,  American  Farm  Bureau 
Federation,  American  Farm  Economic  Association,  American 
Statistical  Association,  Farm  Equipment  Institute,  National  As- 
sociation of  Commissioners,  Secretaries,  and  Directors  of  Agri- 
culture, National  Council  of  Farmer  Cooperatives,  National 
Farmers'  Union,  National  Grange,  Rural  Sociological  Society, 
and  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture.  A  representative  of 
the  Bureau  of  the  Budget  was  in  attendance  at  all  meetings  of 
the  Advisory  Committee. 

Because  of  the  special  interest  of  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agri- 
culture in  censuses  of  agriculture,  the  Director  of  the  Bureau 
of  the  Census  sought  the  continuous  cooperation  of  that  organiza- 
tion in  developing  plans,  questionnaires,  and  procedures  for  the 
1959  Census  of  Agriculture.  Working  Groups  were  established 
in  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture  to  make  recommendations 
for  the  following  general  subjects : 

Tenure,  Land  Values,  and  Mortgage  Debt 

Land  Use  and  Conservation  and  Production  Practices 

Field  Crops 

Fruits  and  Vegetables 

Forest  Products 

Livestock,  Poultry,  and  Dairy 

Income  and  Expenditure  (including  Contractual  Operations) 

Farm  Labor 

Equipment  and  Facilities  (including  Structures) 

Each  Working  Group  had  the  responsibility  for  ascertaining 
the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture's  need  for  data  in  the  field 
covered  by  its  "terms  of  reference"  and  for  presenting  recom- 
mendations to  a  small  Joint  Committee  comprising  representa- 
tives of  both  the  Bureau  of  the  Census  and  the  U.S.  Department 
of  Agriculture.  The  Joint  Committee  received  written  recom- 
mendations from  each  Working  Group.  The  Chairman  of  each 
Group  appeared  before  the  Joint  Committee  as  did  any  member 
of  the  Working  Group  who  was  needed  to  present  supplemental 
information  of  a  specialized  nature. 

Prior  to  the  formulation  of  the  questionnaire,  State  Agricul- 
tural Colleges  and  other  major  users  of  census  data  were  invited 
to  suggest  inquiries  for  the  enumeration.  Each  member  of  the 
Special  Advisory  Committee  had  the  opportunity  and  the  respon- 
sibility for  channeling  in  suggestions  from  the  organization  he 
represented.  The  number  of  inquiries  submitted  from  all  sources 
greatly  exceeded  the  number  that  could  be  included  in  the  census, 
from  the  point  of  view  of  cost,  of  the  respondent's  time  and 
patience,  and  of  practical  value  to  the  majority  of  users  of  data. 

The  final  selection  included  316  questions,  some  of  which  con- 
sisted of  several  parts,  for  the  48  States  comprising  the  con- 
terminous United  States.  Although  each  of  the  316  questions 
was  asked  in  one  or  more  of  the  48  States,  considerably  less  than 
this  total  was  asked  in  any  one  State  because  of  the  use  of  "State" 
questionnaires.  Moreover,  about  50  questions  out  of  the  total 
were  asked  of  approximately  one-fifth  of  all  farm  operators  in 
the  State.  The  number  of  questions  ranged  from  159  on  the 
questionnaire  for  Maine  to  194  on  the  questionnaire  for  Cali- 
fornia. In  all,  38  versions  of  the  questionnaire — one  for  each 
State  or  combination  of  adjoining  States  and  two  for  Texas — 


were  used  for  the  1959  census  in  the  conterminous  United  States 
as  compared  with  21  versions  in  1954  and  41  in  1950.  A  separate 
version  was  used  in  Alaska  and  another  in  Hawaii. 

Differences  in  the  questionnaires  were  designed  to  account 
for  regional  and  local  differences  in  agriculture.  Most,  but  not 
all,  of  the  differences  related  to  crops.  The  use  of  State  ques- 
tionnaires made  possible  the  inclusion  of  separate  inquiries  for 
all  important  crops  grown  within  a  State  and,  at  the  same 
time,  a  reduction  in  the  total  number  of  inquiries  for  a  State. 
Questions  that  did  not  apply,  to  any  considerable  degree,  to  a 
particular  State  were  omitted  from  the  questionnaire  used  in 
that  State.  For  example,  separate  questions  about  citrus  fruits 
were  omitted  from  all  questionnaires  except  for  the  few  States 
where  citrus  fruits  are  grown.  An  added  advantage  of  State 
questionnaires  was  that  production  and  sales  data  could  be  asked 
in  the  unit  of  measure  most  commonly  used  by  the  farmers  in 
each  State.  Regional  variation  in  the  number  and  type  of  ques- 
tions is  an  important  provision  of  the  census  for  obtaining  com- 
plete coverage  of  agricultural  operations. 

About  2  weeks  before  the  start  of  the  enumeration,  agricul- 
ture questionnaires  were  mailed  to  most  households  in  rural 
areas.  A  letter  was  attached  to  each  questionnaire  asking  the 
farm  operator  to  fill  the  questionnaire  and  to  give  it  to  the  enu- 
merator when  he  called.  The  purpose  of  this  procedure  was 
to  save  time  and  money  in  taking  the  census  and  to  improve  the 
quality  of  the  information  given  by  farm  operators.  By  having 
the  questionnaire  ahead  of  time,  the  farmer  could  determine  what 
information  would  be  required  and  could  check  his  records  in 
advance  of  the  enumerator's  visit  It  was,  however,  the  respon- 
sibility of  the  enumerator  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire 
for  each  place  which  qualified.  If  the  questionnaire  had  been  filled 
out  by  the  farm  operator,  the  enumerator  was  instructed  to 
examine  the  questionnaire  for  completeness  and  accuracy  and, 
if  need  be,  to  give  the  farmer  such  help  as  might  be  necessary. 

Agricultural  Operations. — The  training  of  enumerators  stressed 
the  concept  that  a  census  of  agriculture  is  a  census  of  agricultural 
operations  rather  than  a  census  of  farms.  This  concept  was  in- 
tended to  assure  a  complete  agricultural  census  free  of  any  per- 
sonal judgment  by  enumerators  as  to  what  constitutes  a  farm.  In 
accordance  with  clearly  defined  procedures,  an  enumerator  was 
required  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire  for  each  person 
who  had  charge  of  one  or  more  agricultural  operations,  whether 
or  not  he  considered  himself  to  be  a  farm  operator.  For  enu- 
meration purposes,  it  was  considered  that  there  were  agricul- 
tural operations  on  a  place  if,  at  any  time  in  1959 — 

a.  Any  livestock  (hogs,  cattle,  sheep,  goats,  horses,  or  mules) 
were  kept  on  the  place. 

b.  A  combined  total  of  20  or  more  chickens,  turkeys,  and  ducks 
were  kept  on  the  place. 

c.  Any  grain,  hay,  tobacco,  or  other  field  crops  were  grown  on 
the  place. 

d.  A  combined  total  of  20  or  more  fruit  trees,  grapevines,  and 
nut  trees  were  on  the  place. 

e.  Any  vegetables,  berries,  or  nursery  or  greenhouse  products 
were  grown  On  the  place  for  sale. 

As  a  result  of  the  requirement  that  all  places  having  agri- 
cultural operations  be  enumerated,  more  questionnaires  were 
obtained  than  are  included  in  the  tabulations  for  farms.  During 
the  office  processing  operations  that  followed  the  completion  of 
enumeration,  criteria  were  applied  to  the  questionnaires  to  sort 
out  for  tabulation  those  that  represented  farms  according  to 
the  census  definition  of  a  farm   (see  page  XIV). 

Enumeration  Assignments  and  Enumeration  Districts. — To  as- 
sure a  complete  enumeration  within  the  time  allotted,  the  United 
States  (excluding  Alaska  and  Hawaii)  was  divided  into  29,374 
Enumeration  Assignments,  or   EA's.     Each   EA  comprised  an 


INTRODUCTION

area  that  one  enumerator  could  reasonably  be  expected  to  canvass 
within  a  3-  to  4-week  period,  as  indicated  by  performance  rec- 
ords from  the  1054  census. 

Each  EA  was  made  up  of  one  or  more  Enumeration  Dis- 
tricts, or  "ED's,"  as  the  geographic  unit  for  enumeration.  Prior 
to  the  enumeration,  the  ED's  were  classified  into  three  groups 
on  the  basis  of  the  density  of  dwellings  in  relation  to  the  number 
of  farms,  as  indicated  by  the  1954  Census  of  Agriculture,  the 
1950  Census  of  Population  and  Housing,  current  population  esti- 
mates, and  highway  maps  showing  culture  which  were  basic 
to  establishing  the  boundaries  of  each  assignment.  Through  the 
use  of  different  canvassing  procedures  for  each  group  of  ED's, 
the  Bureau  was  able  to  reduce  the  cost  of  enumeration  without 
running  any  material  risk  of  missing  any  farms  or  other  places 
with  agricultural  operations.  The  ED  groupings  and  canvassing 
procedures  are  described  below. 

Group  I  Enumeration  Districts. — In  general,  ED's  with  no 
well-defined  cluster  of  dwellings  were  considered  to  be  open- 
country  areas  and  comprise  Group  I.  For  each  ED  of  Group 
I,  in  his  Enumeration  Assignment,  the  enumerator  was  required 
to  list  in  his  Record  Book  the  name  of  every  head  of  household 
living  in  the  ED  and  also  the  name  of  every  person  not  living 
in  the  ED  who  had  agricultural  operations  there.  There  were 
approximately  20,751  ED's  in  Group  I  for  the  1959  Census. 

Group  II  Enumeration  Districts. — Rural  ED's  in  which  the 
number  of  dwellings  was  large  in  relation  to  the  number  of 
farms  were  considered  to  be  in  Group  II.  For  each  ED,  in 
Group  II,  the  enumerator  was  required  to  list  the  head  of  the 
household  for  all  dwellings  in  the  ED  except  for  those  on  less 
than  one  acre  of  ground  in  built-up  residential  areas  of  50  or 
more  dwellings.  He  was  also  required  to  determine,  by  obser- 
vation or  local  inquiry,  whether  there  were  any  farms  or  other 
places  with  agricultural  operations  in  the  built-up  areas  and, 
if  so,  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire.  There  were 
approximately  7,979  ED's  in  Group  II. 

Group  III  Enumeration  Districts. — Most  incorporated  places 
and  unincorporated  villages  having  approximately  150  or  more 
dwellings  were  designated  as  separate  ED's  and  are  classified 
as  Group  III.  Also,  most  ED's  in  counties  around  large  metro- 
politan areas  were  designated  as  Group  III  Ed's.  Prior  to 
the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture,  places  enumerated  in  these 
areas  during  the  1954  Census  of  Agriculture  were  listed  in 
the  Enumerator's  Record  Book.  The  enumerator  was  required 
to  visit  aud  enumerate  or  otherwise  account  for  each  place  listed 
in  his  Record  Book.  In  addition,  he  was  instructed  to  ask  at 
each  of  these  places  if  there  were  any  farms  or  other  places  with 
agricultural  operations  in  the  Enumeration  District,  and,  if  so, 
to  add  them  to  his  list  and  enumerate  them.  There  were  ap- 
proximately 15,8.36  Group  III  ED's  in  1959.  According  to  the 
1954  Census,  these  ED's  contained  3S0.575  farms. 

A  few  enumeration  districts  that  comprised  incorporated 
places  or  that  were  within  an  incorporated  city  were  classified 
as  Group  I  or  Group  II  because  they  had  a  large  number  of  farms. 
A  few  others,  comprising  extensive  rural  districts  requiring  con- 
siderable travel,  were  classified  as  Group  III  because  they  had 
only  a  small  number  of  farms. 

Enumerator's  Record  Book. — Each  enumerator  received  one  or 
more  Record  Books  containing  a  listing  form  for  use  during 
canvassing.  (See  appendix  for  facsimile  of  one  page  of  list- 
ing form  included  in  Enumerator's  Record  Book.)  The  lines 
on  the  listing  form  were  numbered  in  consecutive  order.  Ex- 
cept as  otherwise  prescribed  for  Group  II  and  Group  III  ED's, 
the  enumerator  listed  in  his  Record  Book  the  name  of  each  head 
of  household  living  in  his  assigned  area  and  also  the  name 
of  each  person  not  living  in  his  area  who  had  agricultural  opera- 
tions there.  As  he  made  his  listing,  he  also  asked  the  questions 
about  agricultural  operations  that  were  printed  on  the  listing 
form.  Answers  to  these  questions  determined,  for  the  enumerator, 
whether  or  not  an  agriculture  questionnaire  was  required  for  the 
person  listed  and,  if  so,  whether  he  or  some  other  enumerator 
was  responsible  for  getting  it.  Thus,  the  Record  Book  served 
as  an  important  aid  to  the  enumerator  in  securing  complete  cov- 
erage of  all  agricultural  operations  within  his  area.    At  the  same 


time,  it  helped  to  prevent  enumeration  of  the  same  place  by  two 
or  more  enumerators. 

Enumeration  Maps. — As  a  second  aid  to  getting  complete  cover- 
age, each  enumerator  received  a  map  or,  in  a  few  exceptional 
cases,  a  brief  written  description  of  the  area  assigned  to  him 
for  enumeration.  He  was  required  to  plan  and  follow  an  orderly 
route  of  enumeration  within  the  boundaries  of  his  assigned  area 
in  accordance  with  established  canvassing  procedures.  As  the 
enumerator  listed  a  place  in  his  Record  Book,  he  indicated  its 
location  by  copying  onto  his  map  the  number  of  the  line  on  which 
he  listed  it.  This  numbering  system  indicated  the  enumerator's 
route  of  travel,  and  helped  both  the  enumerator  and  his  crew 
leader  to  determine  the  extent  of  coverage  of  the  enumerator's 
assignment  at  any  given  time. 

Lists  of  Special  and  Large  Farms. — Prior  to  the  enumeration,  a 
card  list  of  "special  and  large  farms"  was  prepared  on  the  basis 
of  records  obtained  from  the  1954  census  and  from  Federal  and 
State  agricultural  agencies.  In  general,  "special  and  large  farms" 
fell  into  one  of  three  categories:  (1)  farms  having  unusually 
large  acreages,  livestock  inventories,  or  annual  sales  as  indi- 
cated by  available  records;  (2)  farms  known  to  be  specializing 
in  such  operations  as  broiler  production,  turkey  growing,  feed 
lots,  nursery  or  greenhouse  production,  cranberry  bogs,  citrus 
groves,  etc.;  (3)  farms  that  might  easily  be  overlooked  because 
they  had  absentee  operators  or  were  not  locally  thought  of  as 
farms,  such  as  institutions,  Indian  reservations,  grazing  associa- 
tions, etc. 

Enumerators  were  given  the  cards  for  the  special  and  large 
farms  within  their  assignment  areas  to  use  as  aids  to  obtaining 
complete  coverage.  Generally,  the  cards  provided  insurance 
against  the  omission  of  farming  units  that  could  have  a  signifi- 
cant effect  on  the  totals  for  a  given  county  or  State.  The  enu- 
merator was  instructed  to  obtain  an  agriculture  questionnaire 
for  each  special  or  large  farm  in  his  area  or  to  write  an  explana- 
tion on  the  card  as  to  why  an  agriculture  questionnaire'- was  not 
required  on  the  basis  of  1959  operations.  The  crew  leader  had 
a  duplicate  set  of  cards  for  use  in  cheeking  enumeration  coverage. 

Landlord-Tenant  Questionnaire. — As  in  several  previous  cen- 
suses, a  special  landlord-tenant  questionnaire  was  used  in  some 
parts  of  the  South  as  a  supplement  to  the  agriculture  question- 
naire. Its  purpose  was  to  help  the  enumerator  get  complete 
and  accurate  coverage  of  individually  operated  tracts  of  land 
that  were  actually  part  of  one  operating  unit  under  the  control 
of  one  landlord.  To  accomplish  this  purpose,  the  enumerator  was 
required  to  fill  a  landlord-tenant  questionnaire  for  each  landlord 
who  had  any  land  worked  on  shares.  The  entries  made  in  this 
questionnaire  included  the  name  of  each  sharecropper,  tenant,  or 
renter;  the  amount  of  land  assigned  to  each  ;  and  the  acreage  and 
quantity  of  crops  harvested  on  shares.  By  cheeking  these  entries 
against  the  agriculture  questionnaires  obtained  for  the  individual 
operators,  the  enumerator  and  the  Central  Office  could  verify  that 
each  part  of  the  operating  unit  controlled  by  the  landlord  was 
enumerated  and  that  it  was  enumerated  only  once.  The  landlord- 
tenant  questionnaire  was  used  in  386  counties  in  the  1959  census 
as  compared  with  approximately  900  counties  in  1954. 

Township  Sketch  Map. — In  some  areas  of  the  Great  Plains,  a 
considerable  portion  of  land  is  farmed  by  nonresident  operators — 
that  is,  by  persons  who  do  not  live  on  the  land  they  operate  or 
who  live  on  it  only  during  part  of  the  year.  Enumerators  in  these 
areas  used  a  special  mapping  form,  the  Township  Sketch,  in 
addition  to  their  enumeration  maps  as  an  aid  to  obtaining  com- 
plete coverage.  Each  township  included  on  the  sketch  was 
identified  by  township  and  range  number  and  was  divided  into 
144  small  squares.  In  a  standard  section  of  640  acres,  each 
square  represented  a  quarter  section  of  land,  or  160  acres.  As 
the  enumerator  canvassed  his  assignment  area,  he  indicated  the 
acreage  and  location  of  each  farm,  ranch,  and  tract  of  nonfarm 


XII

land  by  drawing  its  boundaries  on  the  sketch.  He  also  used  a 
simple  numbering  system  as  a  cross  reference  between  the  agri- 
cultural land  identified  on  the  sketch  and  the  questionnaire  on 
which  it  was  reported.  The  Township  Sketch  was  used  in  all 
counties  of  North  Dakota  and  South  Dakota  and  In  selected 
counties  of  Colorado,  Kansas,  Minnesota,  Montana,  Nebraska, 
New  Mexico,  Oklahoma,  and  Wyoming. 

Field  Review  of  Enumerator's  Work. — In  the  1959  census, 
greater  emphasis  was  placed  on  a  detailed  review  of  enumerators' 
work  during  enumeration  than  had  been  the  case  in  previous 
censuses.  The  objective  was  to  detect  and  correct  enumeration 
errors  as  early  as  possible  in  order  to  achieve  and  maintain  a 
high  quality  of  individual  performance.  Starting  on  the  first  day 
of  enumeration  and  continuing  throughout  the  enumeration 
period,  each  crew  leader  was  instructed  to  make  regular  and 
frequent  visits  to  his  enumerators.  At  each  visit,  he  was  to 
follow  a  clearly  defined  procedure  for  observing  the  enumerator's 
conduct  of  interviews  and  for  checking  his  listings,  maps,  ques- 
tionnaires, and  other  forms  for  accuracy  and  completeness. 

As  an  aid  to  checking  coverage  and  enumerator  efficiency,  the 
crew  leader  was  given  a  list  containing  estimates,  based  on  the 
1954  census,  of  the  number  of  questionnaires  required  in  each 
enumeration  assignment  area  within  his  district,  and  of  the 
mileage  and  time  required  to  obtain  those  questionnaires. 

SAMPLING 

Use  of  Sampling. — In  the  1959  census,  as  in  several  previous 
censuses,  sampling  was  used  in  two  ways :  for  enumeration  and 
for  tabulation.  Sampling  in  enumeration  consisted  of  the  col- 
lection of  information  about  the  items  included  In  sections  IX 
through  XV  of  the  questionnaire  for  only  a  sample  of  farms. 
The  "sample"  items  relate  to  sales  of  dairy  products  and  sales  of 
livestock,  use  of  fertilizer  and  lime,  farm  expenditures,  land-use 
practices,  farm  labor,  equipment  and  facilities,  rental  agreements, 
farm  values,  and  farm  mortgage  debt.  The  same  sample  of  farms 
was  used  for  tabulations  by  type  of  farm  and  by  economic  class 
of  farm  and  for  many  of  those  by  size  of  farm  and  by  color  and 
tenure  of  operator. 

Description  of  the  Sample. — The  sample  used  for  the  1959  Census 
of  Agriculture  consisted  of  all  farms  with  a  total  area  of  1,000 
or  more  acres  or  with  estimated  sales  of  $100,000  or  more  in  1959, 
and  approximately  20  percent  of  all  other  farms.  Farms  with 
1,000  or  more  acres  were  universally  included  in  the  sample 
during  enumeration.  As  the  enumerator  filled  the  questionnaire, 
he  determined  the  number  of  "acres  in  this  place"  (see  question  7 
of  the  agriculture  questionnaire).  If  the  acreage  amounted  to 
1,000  or  more  he  was  required  to  fill  sections  IX  through  XV  of 
the  questionnaire.  Farms  with  less  than  1,000  acres,  with  esti- 
mated sales  of  $100,000  or  more,  were  included  in  the  sample 
during  the  office  processing.  For  these  farms  the  information  for 
sections  IX  through  XV  was  obtained  by  mail. 

The  selection  of  farms  of  less  than  1,000  acres  for  Inclusion  in 
the  sample  was  made  during  enumeration,  according  to  the  fol- 
lowing procedure:  As  the  enumerator  determined  that  he  was 
required  to  obtain  a  questionnaire,  he  assigned  a  number  to  it, 
whether  or  not  he  was  able  to  obtain  the  questionnaire  on  his 
first  visit.  He  assigned  numbers  in  consecutive  order,  beginning 
with  "1"  for  the  first  questionnaire  required  In  each  enumera- 
tion district  within  his  area.  He  was  instructed  to  fill  sections 
IX  through  XV  on  all  questionnaires  for  which  the  assigned 
number  ended  in  "2"  or  "7"  (i.e.  2,  7,  12,  17,  22,  etc.). 

Adjustment  of  the  Sample. — An  adjustment  in  the  part  of  the 
sample  that  was  comprised  of  farms  of  less  than  1,000  acres  and 
with  estimated  sales  of  less  than  $100,000  was  made  by  a  process 
essentially  equivalent  to  stratifying  the  farms  in  the  sample  by 


size  of  farm.  The  purpose  of  this  adjustment  was  to  Improve 
the  reliability  of  the  estimates  based  on  the  sample  and  to  reduce 
the  effects  of  possible  biases  Introduced  by  enumerators  who  de- 
viated from  the  prescribed  procedure  for  selecting  the  sample 
farms.  The  adjustment  procedure  was  carried  out  for  "blocks" 
of  counties,  each  consisting  of  from  one  to  ten  counties  in  a  State. 
To  adjust  the  sample,  separate  counts  were  made  for  each  county, 
and  for  the  block  of  counties  of  all  farms  and  of  farms  in  the 
sample  for  each  of  10  size-of-farm  groups  based  on  the  "acres 
in  this  place"  (question  7).  The  10  size-of-farm  groups  were  as 
follows :  under  10  acres,  10  to  49  acres,  50  to  69  acres,  70  to  99 
acres,  100  to  139  acres,  140  to  179  acres,  180  to  219  acres,  220 
to  259  acres,  260  to  499  acres,  and  500  to  999  acres.  Farms  of  less 
than  1,000  acres,  but  with  value  of  sales  of  $100,000  or  more, 
were  excluded  from  these  counts.  For  each  size-of-farm  group, 
the  number  of  farms  in  the  sample  for  the  block  of  counties  was 
adjusted  to  make  it  equal  or  approximately  equal  to  the  total 
number  of  farms  divided  by  five.  This  was  accomplished  for 
each  group  by  the  elimination  or  duplication  on  a  random  basis, 
of  farms  in  those  counties  where  the  difference  between  the 
actual  proportion  in  the  sample  and  the  expected  20  percent  was 
in  the  same  direction  as  the  difference  for  the  block  of  counties. 
Estimation  of  Totals  for  the  Sample. — For  the  items  Included 
in  the  sample  part  of  the  questionnaire  (sections  IX  through 
XV),  estimated  totals  for  all  farms  were  derived  from  the  tabu- 
lated totals  for  the  farms  in  the  adjusted  sample.  First,  item-by- 
item  totals,  as  tabulated  for  that  part  of  the  sample  comprising 
farms  of  less  than  1,000  acres  and  with  estimated  sales  of  less 
than  $100,000,  were  multiplied  by  5.  These  estimated  item-by- 
item  totals  were  then  added  to  the  corresponding  item  totals,  as 
tabulated,  for  all  farms  of  1,000  acres  and  over  and  farms  with 
estimated  sales  of  $100,000  and  over.  The  resulting  values 
represent  the  estimated  totals  for  all  farms. 

Presentation  of  Sample  Data. — In  tables  where  a  small  amount 
of  data  based  on  the  sample  farms  is  presented  together  with 
data  for  all  farms,  the  data  based  on  the  sample  are  printed  in 
italics.  Other  tables  contain  headnotes  explaining  that  most 
of  the  data  are  estimates  based  on  reports  for  only  a  sample 
of  farms. 

Reliability  of  Estimates.— The  estimated  totals  for  all  farms  of 
the  items  enumerated  for  only  the  sample  farms  are  subject 
to  sampling  errors.  The  estimated  totals  obtained  by  making 
tabulations  for  only  the  farms  included  In  the  sample  are  also 
subject  to  sampling  errors.  State  tables  23  and  24  contain  ap- 
proximate measures  of  the  sampling  reliability  of  the  estimates 
for  numbers  of  farms  reporting  and  for  item  totals.  While  these 
measures  indicate  the  general  level  of  sampling  reliability  of  the 
estimates,  they  do  not  completely  reflect  errors  arising  from 
sources  other  than  sampling ;  for  example,  errors  in  the  original 
data  reported  by  farmers.  Errors  arising  from  sources  other  than 
sampling  may,  In  some  instances,  be  relatively  more  important 
than  sampling  variation,  especially  for  county  totals. 

The  general  level  of  sampling  reliability  of  estimated  totals 
may  be  determined  from  the  data  In  State  tables  23  and  24.  State 
table  24  contains  a  list  of  items,  together  with  a  figure  for  each 
item  indicating  one  of  the  four  levels  of  sampling  reliability  that 
are  presented  in  State  table  23.  For  each  item  the  sampling 
error  according  to  the  number  of  farms  reporting  may  be  de- 
termined from  State  table  23,  In  the  column  for  the  level  of 
sampling  reliability  designated  in  State  table  24.  To  determine 
the  sampling  reliability  for  any  item,  reference  must  be  made  to 
State  table  24  to  find  out  which  of  the  four  levels  of  sampling 
reliability  given  in  State  table  23  should  be  used,  and  also  the 
appropriate  county  or  State  table  to  obtain  the  number  of  farms 
reporting  the  item. 


INTRODUCTION 


XIII 


As  explained  in  State  table  23,  the  level  of  sampling  reliability 
designated  as  level  1  should  always  be  used  to  determine  the 
sampling  reliability  of  estimated  numbers  of  farms  or  of  farms 
reporting. 

State  table  23  shows  percentage  limits  such  that  chances  are 
about  68  out  of  100  that  the  difference  between  an  estimate  based 
on  the  sample  and  the  figure  that  would  have  been  obtained  from 
a  tabulation  of  all  farms  would  be  no  more  than  the  percentage 
specified  for  the  estimated  number  of  farms  reporting  that  item. 
The  chances  are  about  99  out  of  100  that  the  difference  would  be 
less  than  2V£  times  the  percentage  specified. 

As  indicated  by  the  percentages  in  State  table  23,  the  sum  Her 
the  number  of  farms  reporting  a  given  item,  the  larger  the  relative 
sampling  error  in  the  estimated  total  for  that  item.  Even  so, 
considerable  detail  is  presented  for  each  item,  by  several  classifi- 
cations of  farms,  in  order  to  permit  the  appraisal  of  estimates 
for  various  combinations  of  items  not  shown  in  this  report.  Per- 
centages and  averages  that  may  be  derived  from  the  tables  will 
generally  have  greater  relative  reliability  than  the  corresponding 
estimated  totals.  However,  significant  patterns  of  relationships 
may  be  observed  in  the  estimated  totals  even  though  the  indi- 
vidual data  are  subject  to  relatively  large  sampling  errors. 

The  data  representing  estimates  based  on  a  sample  of  farms 
for  the  1954  census  were  obtained  in  essentially  the  same  way  as 
in  1959.  Therefore,  State  tables  23  and  24  may  also  be  used  to 
determine  the  sampling  errors  for  the  1954  data. 

Differences  in  Data  Resulting  From  Differences  in  Tabulating 
Procedures. — Many  of  the  figures  in  the  detailed  State  tables  rep- 
resent estimates  obtained  by  tabulating  only  the  sample  farms. 
The  totals  for  these  detailed  distributions  will  generally  differ 
somewhat  from  totals  presented  in  other  tables  obtained  from 
different  distributions  which  were  tabulated  on  a  100  percent 
basis.  Moreover,  although  most  of  the  figures  presented  by  coun- 
ties were  obtained  from  tabulations  of  all  farms,  the  data  in 
county  table  4  for  commercial  farms,  and  all  of  the  data  in  the 
county  tables  on  dairy  products  and  livestock  sold,  fertilizer  and 
lime,  farm  expenditures,  land-use  practices,  farm  labor,  facilities 
and  equipment,  and  value  of  land  and  buildings  were  estimated 
for  each  county  on  the  basis  of  data  tabulated  for  the  farms  in 
the  sample.  The  State  totals  in  the  county  tables  for  these  items, 
though  based  also  on  the  sample,  were  obtained  in  a  different 
series  of  tabulating  runs,  and  so  may  differ  slightly  from  totals 
presented  in  some  State  tables.  For  reasons  of  economy  the 
sample  distributions  were  not  adjusted  to  the  100  percent  totals 
even  when  such  totals  were  available,  nor  were  slight  discrepan- 
cies resulting  from  different  runs  of  the  sample  data  always  rec- 
onciled unless  the  differences  were  large  enough  to  affect  the 
usefulness  or  reliability  of  the  data. 

PROCESSING  OPERATIONS 

Completion  of  Enumeration. — As  an  enumerator  completed  his 
assignment,  he  turned  the  portfolio  containing  questionnaires  and 
other  census  materials  over  to  his  crew  leader.  After  making 
a  final  review  of  the  enumerator's  work,  the  crew  leader  mailed 
the  portfolio  to  the  Agriculture  Processing  Office  at  Parsons, 
Kansas.  There,  each  enumerator  portfolio  was  thoroughly 
checked  for  completeness  of  all  required  forms  and  for  correct 
application  of  the  sampling  procedure. 

Editing  of  Questionnaires. — Each  agriculture  questionnaire  was 
individually  edited  and  coded  before  the  information  was  trans- 
ferred to  punch  cards  and  tabulated.  As  the  first  major  step  in 
the  editing  process,  questionnaires  that  did  not  represent  farms 
according  to   the  census  definition  were  withdrawn   from   fur- 


ther processing.  (See  p.  XIV.)  As  the  second  major  step,  the 
remaining  questionnaires  were  examined  for  errors,  omissions, 
and  inconsistencies.  Among  the  specific  items  subjected  to  con- 
sistency checks  were  the  following : 

a.  Total  acreage  compared  with  its  distribution  by  use. 

b.  Acreage  of  individual  crops  harvested  compared  with  total 
cropland  harvested. 

c.  Irrigated  acreage  compared  with  total  acres  in  the  farm. 

d.  Total  acreage  of  individual  crops  for  all  purposes  compared 
with  the  acreage  harvested  for  specific  purposes. 

e.  Quantity  of  crops  harvested  in  relation  to  acreage  harvested. 

f.  Sales  in  relation  to  production  and,  for  livestock,  to  inven- 
tories. 

g.  Total  livestock  compared  with  the  inventory  by  age  and  sex. 
h.  Expenditures  compared  with  production  and  inventories. 

Obvious  errors  in  calculations  or  in  units  of  measure,  and 
misplaced  entries  were  corrected  as  they  were  found.  Entries 
not  clearly  legible  were  rewritten.  Many  omissions  or  incon- 
sistencies were  disregarded  during  editing.  Those  of  significant 
magnitude  could  be  and  were  handled  more  efficiently  and  eco- 
nomically during  mechanical  processing  operations.  Question- 
naires containing  major  inconsistencies  and  omissions  were  re- 
ferred to  members  of  the  technical  staff  for  review.  Depending 
on  the  magnitude  of  the  data  involved,  the  technical  staff  cor- 
rected (or  supervised  the  correction  of)  the  questionnaires  either 
on  the  basis  of  information  reported  for  other  farms  of  similar 
type  in  the  area  or  on  the  basis  of  additional  information  re- 
ceived in  response  to  letters  directed  to  the  farm  operators. 

Coding  of  Questionnaires. — Most  of  the  numerical  information 
on  a  questionnaire  was  self-coding  in  that  the  inquiry  number 
was  utilized  for  the  item  identification  on  punch  cards  or  on 
tabulations  runs.  However,  some  manual  coding  was  also  neces- 
sary for  such  items  as  irrigated  crops  for  selected  States,  crops 
infrequently  reported,  miscellaneous  poultry,  etc.  Code  numbers 
were  entered  on  questionnaires  to  classify  farms  and,  in  some 
cases,  to  identify  data  for  individual  items.  All  farms  were  coded 
by  size  of  farm  in  terms  of  total  acreage,  by  race,  and  by  tenure 
of  operator.  Farms  in  the  17  Western  States,  Louisiana,  and 
Hawaii  were  also  coded  on  the  basis  of  irrigated  cropland  and 
irrigated  pasture.  Additional  codes  were  applied  to  all  farms 
included  in  the  sample  to  classify  them  by  type  of  farm  and  by 
total  value  of  agricultural  products  sold.  Individual  items  were 
coded  only  where  reports  were  received  for  crops  or  poultry  not 
covered  by  separate  inquiries  on  the  questionnaire.  This  coding 
was  necessary  to  assure  inclusion  of  the  data  in  the  appropriate 
farm  product  totals. 

Tabulation  of  Data. — After  the  questionnaires  were  edited  and 
coded,  the  information  on  them  was  punched  on  cards.  The  cards 
were  then  mechanically  sorted  and  fed  into  machines  which 
transferred  the  data  to  tabulation  sheets.  One  of  the  initial 
and  primary  steps  in  the  machine  handling  of  the  punch  cards 
was  to  separate  and  list  those  cards  which  lacked  necessary  in- 
formation, those  which  contained  inconsistent  or  impossible  data, 
and  those  on  which  the  data  were  possible  but  of  such  magnitude 
that  a  further  review  of  the  individual  questionnaires  was  war- 
ranted. The  listing  sheets  were  examined  and,  as  necessary,  the 
cards  were  corrected.  When  the  cards  for  a  particular  county 
were  considered  satisfactory,  the  data  were  tabulated. 

Subject-matter  specialists  of  the  Bureau  and  the  U.S.  Depart- 
ment of  Agriculture  examined  all  tabulations  for  reasonableness 
and  consistency.  As  necessary,  they  made  corrections  on  the  basis 
of  a  further  review  and  reappraisal  of  the  original  reports  and 
verification  of  the  editing,  coding,  and  punching.

UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


PRESENTATION  OF  STATISTICS 

Statistical  Content  of  This  Report. — This  report  is  part  of  Vol- 
ume I  of  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture.  Volume  I  consists  of 
54  parts,  each  part  containing  information  about  agriculture  for 
a  single  State,  Commonwealth,  or  Possession.  Each  part  con- 
tains county  data  for  that  particular  State  or  area.  The  term 
"county,"  as  used  in  this  report  embraces  election  districts  in 
Alaska,  parishes  in  Louisiana,  municipios  (municipalities)  in 
Puerto  Rico,  etc.  The  statistics  for  1959  were  obtained  from  the 
Census  of  Agriculture  taken  in  the  "conterminous  United  States" 
(see  following  paragraph),  Hawaii,  and  Puerto  Rico  during  the 
period  October  1959  to  January  1900  and  in  Alaska,  American 
Samoa,  Guam,  and  Virgin  Islands  as  of  April  1,  1900.  Compara- 
tive data  for  years  prior  to  1959  were  obtained  from  earlier 
censuses. 

In  the  planning  of  the  publications  for  the  1960  Censuses  of 
Population  and  Housing  and  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture,  the 
term  "conterminous  United  States,"  recommended  by  the  Board 
of  Geographic  Names  to  designate  the  48-State  area  as  it  ex- 
isted before  Alaska  and  Hawaii  became  States,  was  adopted  by 
the  Bureau  of  the  Census. 

The  definitions  and  explanations  in  this  introduction  for  vol- 
ume I  generally  have  application  broad  enough  to  include  the 
States  of  Alaska  and  Hawaii,  and  the  Commonwealth  of  Puerto 
Rico  and  the  island  possessions.  However,  specific  application 
in  many  instances  may  be  limited  to  the  conterminous  United 
States ;  for  example,  references  to  earlier  censuses,  to  the  sam- 
pling methods  and  procedures,  to  specific  sections  or  questions  on 
the  questionnaires,  and  to  specific  table  numbers. 

For  each  part  of  volume  I  (one  part  for  each  State  or  area), 
a  facsimile  of  the  appropriate  questionnaire  is  reproduced  in 
the  appendix. 

The  statistics  for  States  and  counties  are  presented  according 
to  the  same  general  plan  as  was  followed  in  the  volume  I  re- 
ports for  the  1954  and  the  1950  censuses.  State  and  county  totals 
are  given  for  nearly  all  items  for  which  information  was  ob- 
tained in  the  1959  census.  However,  most  of  the  data  by  eco- 
nomic class  of  farm,  type  of  farm,  and  color  and  tenure  of  farm 
operator  are  given  only  for  States. 

Comparative  data  for  the  States  are  given  for  each  census 
year  beginning  with  1920.  Comparative  data  for  counties  are 
given  for  the  years  1959  and  1954.  For  some  items,  the  data 
obtained  from  the  1959  census  are  the  only  ones  available.  For 
comparative  purposes  1950  data  are  carried  in  county  table  6 
for  the  kind  of  road  on  which  farms  were  located. 

Comparability  of  Data. — The  data  obtained  from  the  various 
censuses  of  agriculture  are  not  strictly  comparable  for  all  items. 
For  example,  differences  from  one  census  to  another  in  the  time 
of  enumeration,  the  wording  of  the  questions,  and  the  definition 
of  a  farm  cause  some  lack  of  comparability.  Differences  con- 
sidered to  have  a  significant  effect  on  the  comparability  of  data 
are  described  in  the  text  and/or  mentioned  in  footnotes  to  the 
tables. 

Minor  Civil  Divisions. — As  in  prior  censuses,  data  for  most  of 
the  items  included  in  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture  were  tabu- 
lated for  minor  civil  divisions.  The  term  "minor  civil  division" 
applies  to  the  primary  subdivision  of  a  county  into  smaller  geo- 
graphic areas  such  as  townships,  precincts,  districts,  wards, 
beats,  municipalities,  etc.  Figures  for  these  smaller  geographic 
areas  are  not  included  in  any  of  the  published  reports,  but  they 
may  be  supplied  upon  request  and  payment  of  the  costs  of  com- 
piling and  checking  the  data. 

Prior  to  the  1954  Census,  an  enumeration  assignment  did  not 
include  more  than  one  minor  civil  division,  even  in  cases  where 
the  township,  precinct,  etc.,  did  not  have  enough  farms  to  provide 
a  full  workload  for  an  enumerator.     In  1954,  and  again  in  1959, 


the  aim  was  to  make  enumeration  assignments  large  enough  to 
keep  each  enumerator  fully  occupied  in  his  area  for  a  3-  to  4-week 
period.  Hence,  in  some  areas,  two  or  more  adjoining  minor  civil 
divisions  were  combined  into  one  enumeration  assignment.  An 
enumeration  assignment  never  comprised  the  whole  of  one  minor 
civil  division  and  a  part  of  another,  nor  a  part  of  two  or  more 
minor  civil  divisions.  A  minor  civil  division  that  included  too 
many  farms  for  one  enumerator  to  cover  during  the  enumeration 
period  was  divided  into  two  or  more  enumeration  assignments. 

In  some  cases,  the  minor  civil  division  tabulations  provide  totals 
for  a  single  minor  civil  division,  even  when  such  totals  required 
a  grouping  of  enumeration  assignments.  In  other  cases,  the  minor 
civil  division  tabulations  provide  totals  for  a  combination  of 
two  or  more  adjoining  minor  civil  divisions.  The  data  for  each 
individual  minor  civil  division  included  in  such  totals  can  be  tab- 
ulated separately,  however,  since  each  questionnaire  obtained  in 
the  census  contains  the  designation  of  the  minor  civil  division  in 
which  the  farm  headquarters  was  located.  An  additional  charge 
must  be  made  for  a  separate  tabulation  of  any  small  area  in- 
cluded in  a  total  for  two  or  more  combined  minor  civil  divisions. 

Requests  for  census  information  for  minor  civil  divisions  should 
be  directed  to  the  Agriculture  Division,  Bureau  of  the  Census, 
Washington  25,  D.C. 

DEFINITIONS  AND  EXPLANATIONS 

Descriptive  Summary  and  References. — The  definitions  and  ex- 
planations that  follow  relate  only  to  those  items  that  are  con- 
sidered to  be  inadequately  described  in  the  tables  where  they 
appear.  Although  the  descriptive  terms  and  explanations  refer 
specifically  to  the  1959  Census  of  Agriculture,  many  of  them  also 
apply  to  earlier  censuses.  Most  of  the  definitions  consist  of  a 
resumed  of  the  questionnaire  wording,  supplemented  by  excerpts 
from  instructions  given  to  enumerators.  For  exact  wording  of 
the  questions  and  of  the  instructions  included  on  the  question- 
naire, see  the  facsimile  of  the  1959  Agriculture  Questionnaire  in 
the  appendix  of  this  report. 

An  analysis  of  the  questions  asked  in  the  1959  census,  and  of 
the  data  obtained,  is  given  in  Volume  II,  General  Report,  Statis- 
tics by  Subjects,  United  States  Census  of  Agriculture,  1959.  The 
general  report  presents  statistics  for  States  by  subject  matter. 

General  Farm  Information 

Census  Definition  of  a  Farm. — For  the  1959  Census  of  Agricul- 
ture, the  definition  of  a  farm  was  based  primarily  on  a  combina- 
tion of  "acres  in  the  place"  and  the  estimated  value  of  agricultural 
products  sold. 

The  word  "place"  was  defined  to  include  all  land  on  which 
agricultural  operations  were  conducted  at  any  time  in  1959  under 
the  control  or  supervision  of  one  person  or  partnership.  (For 
definition  of  "agricultural  operations",  see  p.  X.)  Control  may 
have  been  exercised  through  ownership  or  management,  or 
through  a  lease,  rental,  or  cropping  arrangement. 

Places  of  less  than  10  acres  in  1959  were  counted  as  farms  if 
the  estimated  sales  of  agricultural  products  for  the  year  amounted 
to  at  least  $250.  Places  of  10  or  more  acres  in  1959  were  counted 
as  farms  if  the  estimated  sales  of  agricultural  products  for  the 
year  amounted  to  at  least  $50.  Places  having  less  than  the  $50 
or  $250  minimum  estimated  sales  in  1959  were  also  counted  as 
farms  if  they  could  normally  be  expected  to  produce  agricultural 
products  in  sufficient  quantity  to  meet  the  requirements  of  the 
definition.  This  additional  qualification  resulted  in  the  inclusion 
as  farms  of  some  places  engaged  in  farming  operations  for  the 
first  time  in  1959  and  places  affected  by  crop  failure  or  other 
unusual  conditions. 

To  avoid  biases  arising  from  an  enumerator's  personal  judg- 
ment and  opinion,  the  Bureau  did  not  give  enumerators  the  defini-

tion  of  a  farm.  Instead,  enumerators  were  instructed  to  obtain 
questionnaires  for  all  places  considered  farms  by  their  operators 
and  for  all  other  places  that  had  one  or  more  agricultural  opera- 
tions. (See  "Agricultural  Operations",  p.  X.)  In  1954,  enumer- 
ators were  instructed  to  rill  questionnaires  on  the  same  basis  as 
in  1959.  In  1950,  agricultural  operations  were  defined  to  include 
every  place  of  3  or  more  acres,  whether  or  not  the  operator  con- 
sidered it  a  farm,  and  every  place  having  "specialized  operations", 
regardless  of  the  acreage.  "Specialized  operations"  referred  to 
nurseries  and  greenhouses  and  to  places  having  100  or  more 
poultry,  production  of  300  or  more  dozen  eggs  in  1949,  or  3  or 
more  hives  of  bees.  In  all  of  the  three  last  censuses,  as  a  result, 
questionnaires  were  filled  for  a  considerable  number  of  places 
that  did  not  qualify  as  farms.  The  determination  as  to  which 
questionnaires  represented  farms  was  made  during  office  process- 
ing operations  and  only  those  questionnaires  meeting  the  criteria 
for  a  farm  were  included  in  the  tabulations. 

For  both  the  1950  and  1954  Censuses  of  Agriculture,  places  of 
3  or  more  acres  were  counted  as  farms  if  the  annual  value  of 
agricultural  products,  whether  for  home  use  or  for  sale  but  ex- 
clusive of  home-garden  products,  amounted  to  $150  or  more. 
Places  of  less  than  3  acres  were  counted  as  farms  only  if  the 
annual  sales  of  agricultural  products  amounted  to  $150  or  more. 
A  few  places  with  very  low  agricultural  production  because  of 
unusual  circumstances,  such  as  crop  failure,  were  also  counted  as 
farms  if  they  normally  could  have  been  expected  to  meet  the 
minimum  value  or  sales  criteria. 

In  the  censuses  from  1925  to  1945,  enumerators  were  given  a 
definition  of  "farm"  and  were  instructed  to  obtain  reports  only 
for  those  places  which  met  the  criteria.  According  to  this  defini- 
tion, farms  included  all  places  of  3  or  more  acres,  regardless  of 
the  quantity  or  value  of  agricultural  production,  and  places  of 
less  than  3  acres  if  the  value  of  agricultural  products,  whether 
for  home  use  or  for  sale,  amounted  to  $250  or  more.  Because  of 
changes  in  price  level,  the  $250  minimum  resulted  in  the  in- 
clusion of  varying  numbers  of  farms  of  less  than  3  acres  in  the 
several  censuses  taken  during  this  period.  Generally,  the  only 
reports  excluded  from  tabulation  were  those  taken  in  error  and 
those  showing  very  limited  agricultural  production,  such  as  only 
a  small  home  garden,  a  few  fruit  trees,  a  small  flock  of  chickens, 
etc.  In  1945,  reports  for  places  of  3  acres  or  more  were  tabulated 
only  if  at  least  3  acres  were  in  cropland  and/or  pasture  or  if  the 
value  of  products  in  1944  amounted  to  at  least  $150. 

The  decrease  in  the  number  of  farms  in  1950  and  1954,  as  com- 
pared with  earlier  censuses,  was  partly  due  to  the  change  in 
farm  definition,  especially  with  respect  to  farms  of  3  or  more 
acres  in  size.  Some  of  the  places  of  3  or  more  acres  that  were 
not  counted  as  farms  in  1950  and  1954  because  the  value  of  their 
agricultural  production  was  less  than  $150  would  have  qualified 
as  farms  if  the  criteria  had  been  the  same  as  in  earlier  censuses. 

For  1959,  the  decrease  in  the  number  of  farms  as  compared 
with  all  prior  censuses  resulted  partly  from  the  change  in  farm 
definition.  The  fact  that  sales  of  agricultural  products  in  1959 
was  used  resulted  in  the  exclusion  of  some  places  that  would 
have  qualified  as  farms  had  the  value  of  agricultural  products 
alone  been  considered.  The  increase  in  the  acreage  minimum 
also  had  an  effect.  The  reduction  in  the  number  of  farms  due 
to  change  in  definition,  1954  to  1959,  is  shown  for  each  county 
In  county  table  1.  Some  characteristics  of  the  places  not  counted 
as  farms  in  1959,  but  which  would  have  been  included  in  1954, 
are  shown  in  State  table  10. 

The  change  in  farm  definition  made  in  1950  and  again  in  1959 
had  no  appreciable  effect  on  the  totals  for  livestock  or  crops 
because  the  places  affected  by  the  change  ordinarily  accounted 
for  less  than  1  percent  of  the  totals  for  a  given  county  or  State. 

For  the  States  that  comprise  the  conterminous  United  States, 
two  figures  are  published  for  each  county  on  the  number  of  farms 


in  1959.  One  is  an  actual  count  of  all  farms  and  the  other  is  an 
estimate  based  on  the  number  of  farms  included  in  the  sample. 
For  almost  every  county  there  is  a  difference  between  the  actual 
number  of  farms  and  the  estimated  number  of  farms.  Because 
of  sampling  procedure  and  sampling  variability,  the  number  of 
farms  in  the  sample  seldom  agrees  exactly  with  the  actual  num- 
ber of  farms.  For  most  counties,  the  actual  number  of  farms 
in  the  sample  was  either  more  or  less  than  precisely  20  percent 
of  all  farms.  Similarly,  totals  estimated  on  the  basis  of  data 
for  the  sample  farms  may  be  slightly  more  or  slightly  less  than 
the  actual  totals  that  would  have  been  obtained  had  the  data 
been  tabulated  for  all  farms.  Therefore,  the  estimated  number 
of  farms  reporting  certain  items  may,  in  some  instances,  be 
greater  than  the  total  number  of  farms  shown  in  county  table  1. 
However,  the  estimated  number  of  farms  is  given  in  county 
tables  5  and  6  so  that  estimates  based  on  the  sample  farms  may 
be  related  to  the  estimated  rather  than  the  actual  number  of 
farms. 

Farm  Operator. — The  term  "farm  operator"  is  used  to  designate 
a  person  who  operates  a  farm,  either  doing  the  work  himself  or 
directly  supervising  the  work.  He  may  be  the  owner,  a  member  of 
the  owner's  household,  a  hired  manager,  or  a  tenant,  renter,  or 
sharecropper.  If  he  rents  land  to  others  or  has  land  worked  on 
shares  by  others,  he  is  considered  as  operator  only  of  the  land 
which  he  retains  for  his  own  operation.  In  the  case  of  a  partner- 
ship, only  one  partner  is  counted  as  an  operator.  The  number  of 
farm  operators  is  considered  to  be  the  same  as  the  number  of 
farms. 

Farms  Reporting  or  Operators  Reporting. — Figures  for  farms  re- 
porting or  operators  reporting,  based  on  a  tabulation  of  all  farms, 
represent  the  number  of  farms,  or  operators,  for  which  the  speci- 
fied item  was  reported.  For  example,  if  there  were  1,922  farms 
in  a  county  and  only  1,465  had  chickens  4  months  old  and  over 
on  hand  at  the  time  of  enumeration,  the  number  of  farms 
reporting  chickens  would  be  shown  as  1,465.  The  difference  be- 
tween the  total  number  of  farms  and  the  number  of  farms  re- 
porting a  particular  item  represents  the  number  of  farms  not 
having  that  item,  provided  a  correct  report  was  received  for  all 
farms. 

Where  applicable,  figures  may  be  given  for  the  number  of  farms 
or  operators  not  reporting  items  that  were  intended  to  be  ob- 
tained for  all  farms;  for  example,  residence  of  farm  operator, 
State  table  4.  The  number  not  reporting,  as  compared  with  the 
total  number  of  farms  or  operators,  indicates  the  extent  of 
incompleteness  of  the  reporting  of  the  data  for  the  item. 

Land  Area. — The  approximate  total  land  area  of  States  and 
counties  as  reported  for  1959  is,  in  general,  the  same  as  that  re- 
ported for  all  censuses  beginning  with  1940.  Such  differences  as 
are  shown  reflect  political  changes  in  boundaries  or  actual  changes 
in  land  area  caused  by  changes  in  the  number  or  size  of  reser- 
voirs, lakes,  streams,  etc.  For  Alaska,  the  areas  for  election 
districts  represent  the  gross  area  of  land  and  water. 

land  in  Farms. — Except  for  managed  farms,  the  land  to  be  in- 
cluded in  each  farm  was  determined  from  the  answers  to  ques- 
tions about  the  number  of  acres  owned,  the  number  of  acres  rented 
from  others  or  worked  on  shares  for  others,  and  the  number  of 
acres  rented  to  others  or  worked  on  shares  by  others.  The  acres 
owned  and  the  acres  rented  from  others  or  worked  on  shares  for 
others  were  first  added  together  and  then  the  acres  rented  to 
others  or  worked  on  shares  by  others  were  subtracted.  The  re- 
sult represented  the  number  of  acres  in  the  farm.  The  number  of 
acres  in  a  managed  farm  was  the  difference  between  the  total 
land  managed  and  that  part  of  the  managed  land  that  was  rented 
to  others  or  worked  on  shares  by  others. 

In  the  1959,  1954,  and  1950  censuses,  enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  record  total  figures  for  land  owned,  land  rented  from 
others,  and  land  managed  for  others,  including  any  part  of  the 
land  that  was  rented  to  others.     In  censuses  prior  to  1950,  enu- 


XVI 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


merators  were  instructed  to  exclude  all  land  rented  to  others  and 
to  record  only  that  portion  of  the  acreage  owned,  rented  from 
others,  or  managed  for  others  that  was  retained  by  the  farm  op- 
erator. Thus,  the  figures  for  the  individual  tenures  of  land  are 
not  entirely  comparable  for  all  censuses.  However,  the  land  in- 
cluded in  each  farm  was  determined  on  essentially  the  same  basis 
for  all  censuses. 

The  acreage  designated  in  the  tables  as  "land  in  farms"  consists 
primarily  of  "agricultural"  land — that  is,  land  used  for  crops 
and  pasture  or  grazing.  It  also  includes  considerable  areas  of 
land  not  actually  under  cultivation  nor  used  for  pasture  or  graz- 
ing. For  example,  the  entire  acreage  of  woodland  and  wasteland 
owned  or  rented  by  farm  operators  is  included  as  land  in  farms, 
unless  it  was  being  held  for  nonagricultural  purposes  or  unless 
the  acreage  was  unusually  large.  For  1959  and  1954,  if  a  place 
had  1,000  or  more  acres  of  woodland  not  pastured  and  wasteland, 
and  if  less  than  10  percent  of  the  total  acreage  in  the  place  was 
used  for  agricultural  purposes,  the  acreage  of  woodland  not  pas- 
tured and  wasteland  was  reduced  to  equal  the  acreage  used  for 
agriculture.  The  procedure  used  in  1950  for  excluding  unusually 
large  acreages  of  woodland  not  pastured  and  wasteland  differed 
slightly  from  the  one  used  in  1959  and  1954.  In  1950,  adjustments 
were  made  in  places  of  1,000  or  more  acres  (5,000  or  more  in  the 
17  Western  States ) ,  if  less  than  10  percent  of  the  total  acreage  was 
used  for  agricultural  purposes. 

Except  for  open  range  and  grazing  land  used  under  government 
permit,  all  grazing  land  was  to  be  included  as  land  in  farms 
provided  the  place  of  which  it  was  a  part  was  a  farm.  Grazing 
land  operated  by  Grazing  Associations  was  to  be  reported  in  the 
name  of  the  person  chiefly  responsible  for  conducting  the  business 
of  the  Association.  Land  used  rent  free  was  to  be  reported  as 
land  rented  from  others.  All  land  in  Indian  reservations  that 
was  used  for  growing  crops  or  grazing  livestock  was  to  be  in- 
cluded. Land  in  Indian  reservations  that  was  not  reported  by 
individual  Indians  and  that  was  not  rented  to  non-Indians  was 
to  be  reported  in  the  name  of  the  cooperative  group  that  used  the 
land.  In  some  instances,  an  entire  Indian  reservation  was  re- 
ported as  one  farm. 

land  owned. — All  land  that  the  operator  and/or  his  wife 
held  under  title,  purchase  contract,  homestead  law,  or  as  heir 
or  trustee  of  an  undivided  estate  at  the  time  of  enumeration  is 
considered  as  owned. 

Land  Rented  from  Others. — This  item  includes  not  only  land 
that  the  operator  rented  or  leased  from  others  but  also  land 
he  worked  on  shares  for  others  and  land  he  occupied  rent  free. 
Grazing  land  used  under  government  permit  or  license  is  not 
included. 

land  Rented  to  Others. — This  item  includes  all  land  rented  or 
leased  to  others,  except  land  leased  to  the  government  under  the 
Soil  Bank,  and  all  land  worked  by  others  on  shares  or  on  a 
rent-free  basis.  For  the  most  part,  the  land  rented  to  others 
represents  agricultural  land  but  it  also  includes  land  rented 
for  residential  or  other  purposes.  The  tenant  or  sharecropper 
is  considered  as  the  operator  of  land  leased,  rented,  or  worked 
on  shares  even  though  his  landlord  may  supervise  his  opera- 
tions. The  landlord  is  considered  as  operator  of  only  that  por- 
tion of  the  land  not  assigned  to  tenants  or  croppers. 

Land  Managed. — This  item  includes  all  tracts  of  land  man- 
aged for  one  or  more  employers  by  a  person  hired  on  a  salary 
basis.  A  hired  manager  was  considered  to  be  the  operator  of 
the  land  he  managed  since  he  was  responsible  for  the  agricul- 
tural operations  on  that  land  and  frequently  supervised  others 
in  performing  those  operations.  Managed  land  was  always  to 
be  reported  on  a  separate  questionnaire  whether  or  not  the 
manager  also  operated  a  farm  on  his  own  account. 

Land  in  Two  or  More  Counties. — An  individual  farm  was  al- 
ways enumerated  in  only  one  county,  even  in  cases  where  the 
land  was  located  in  two  or  more  counties.  If  the  farm  operator 
lived  on  the  farm,  the  farm  was  enumerated  in  the  county  where 
he  lived.  If  he  did  not  live  on  the  farm,  the  figures  for  the 
farm  were  tabulated  for  the  county  where  the  farm  head- 
quarters was  located.  In  eases  where  there  was  any  question  as 
to  the  location  of  the  headquarters,  figures  for  the  farm  were 
tabulated  for  the  county  where  most  of  the  land  was  located. 


Land  in  Farms  According  to  Use. — Land  in  farms  has  been 
distributed  according  to  the  way  in  which  it  was  used  in  1959. 
The  land  uses  described  in  the  following  paragraphs  are  mutually 
exclusive;  that  is,  each  acre  of  land  is  included  only  once  even 
though  it  may  have  had  more  than  one  use  during  the  year. 

Cropland  Harvested. — This  category  refers  to  all  land  from 
which  any  crops  were  harvested  in  1959,  whether  for  home  use 
or  for  sale.  It  includes  land  from  which  hay  (including  wild 
hay)  was  cut  and  land  in  berries  and  other  small  fruits,  or- 
chards, vineyards,  nurseries,  and  greenhouses.  Matured  crops 
hogged  off  or  grazed  were  considered  to  have  been  "crops  har- 
vested" and  were  reported  here.  Land  from  which  two  or 
more  crops  were  harvested  in  1959  was  to  be  counted  only  once 
in  the  land-use  classification.  Land  used  for  other  purposes 
either  before  or  after  the  crops  were  harvested  was  to  be  re- 
ported as  cropland  harvested,  without  regard  to  the  other  uses. 

The  enumerator  was  instructed  to  check  the  figure  for  crop- 
land harvested  for  each  farm  by  adding  the  acreages  of  the 
individual  crops  and  subtracting  the  acreages  from  which  two 
or  more  crops  were  harvested.  This  checking  procedure  was 
repeated  during  the  office  processing  of  questionnaires  for  all 
farms  having  100  or  more  acres  of  cropland  harvested. 

Cropland  used  only  for  Pasture.— This  land-use  classification 
includes  rotation  pasture  and  all  other  land  used  only  for  pas- 
ture or  grazing  that  the  operator  considered  could  have  been 
used  for  crops  without  additional  improvement.  Enumerators 
were  instructed  to  include  land  planted  to  crops  that  were 
hogged  off,  pastured,  or  grazed  before  maturity  but  to  exclude 
land  pastured  before  or  after  hay  or  other  crops  were  harvested 
from  it.  Permanent  open  pasture  may  have  been  reported 
either  for  this  item  or  for  "other  pasture"  depending  on  whether 
or  not  the  operator  considered  it  as  cropland. 

The  figures  for  1945  and  earlier  censuses  are  not  entirely 
comparable  with  those  for  the  last  three  censuses.  For  1945, 
the  figures  include  only  cropland  used  solely  for  pasture  in  1944 
that  had  been  plowed  within  the  preceding  seven  years.  The 
figures  for  1940,  1935,  and  1925  are  more  nearly  comparable 
with  those  for  1959,  1954,  and  1950,  however,  because  they  in- 
clude land  pastured  that  could  have  been  plowed  and  used  for 
crops  without  additional  clearing,  draining,  or  irrigating. 

Cropland  not  Harvested  and  not  Pastured.— This  classification 
represents  a  total  of  three  subclasses  for  the  17  Western  States 
and  two  subclasses  for  other  States. 

Cultivated  Summer  Fallow. — This  subclass  of  land  is  shown 
only  for  the  17  Western  States.  It  refers  to  cropland  that 
was  plowed  and  cultivated  but  left  unseeded  for  the  1959 
harvest  in  order  to  control  weeds  and  conserve  moisture. 

Soil  Improvement  Grasses  and  Legumes. — For  the  1959  cen- 
sus, land  used  only  for  cover  crops  to  control  erosion  or  to 
be  plowed  under  for  green  manure  is  tabulated  separately 
from  "other  cropland".  After  the  establishment  of  the  Soil 
Bank,  land  that  would  normally  have  been  used  for  other 
purposes  was  frequently  planted  to  soil-improvement  crops. 
In  counties  where  large  acreages  were  placed  in  the  Soil 
Bank,  the  total  of  land  used  for  soil-improvement  crops  plus 
"other  cropland"  may  be  considerably  larger  than  the  "other 
cropland"  shown  for  previous  censuses. 

Other  Cropland. — This  subclass  includes  idle  cropland,  land 
in  crops  intended  for  harvest  after  1959,  and  cropland  not 
harvested  because  of  complete  crop  failure,  low  prices,  labor 
shortage,  or  other  reasons.  The  1959  figures  for  "other 
cropland"  are  not  entirely  comparable  with  those  for  previ- 
ous censuses  since  they  do  not  include  land  used  only  for 
soil-improvement  crops.     (See  preceding  paragraph.) 

Woodland  Pastured. — This  classification  includes  all  wood- 
land where  livestock  were  pastured  or  grazed  in  1959.  The 
instruction  on  the  questionnaire — "Include  as  woodland  all 
wood  lots  and  timber  tracts ;  cutover  and  deforested  land 
which  has  value  for  wood  products  and  has  not  been  improved 
for  pasture" — represents  a  somewhat  more  precise  definition 
than  the  corresponding  instruction  contained  on  the  1954  ques- 
tionnaire. No  definition  of  woodland  was  given  in  1950  apart 
from  an  instruction  to  enumerators  not  to  include  brush  pas- 
ture as  woodland.  Some  of  the  changes  in  woodland  acreages 
from  one  census  to  another  may  merely  represent  differences 
in  interpretation  as  to  what  constitutes  "woodland." 

Woodland  not  Pastured. — This  classification  refers  to  all 
woodland  not  used  for  pasture  or  grazing  in  1959.  including 
land  in  operated  farms  that  was  placed  in  the  Soil  Bank  mid 
planted  to  trees.  Unusually  large  tracts  of  timbeiland  that 
were  reported  as  woodland  not  pastured  were  excluded  from 


INTRODUCTION

the  tabulation  of  land  in  farms  when  it  was  evident  that  such 
land  was  held  primarily  for  nonagricultural  purposes. 

Other  Pasture. — This  classification  refers  to  all  land  other 
than  woodland  and  cropland  that  was  used  only  for  pasture 
or  grazing  in  1959.  It  includes  noncrop  open  or  brush  pasture 
and  cutover  or  deforested  laud  that  has  been  improved  and 
used  for  pasture.  The  figures  for  the  last  three  censuses  are 
comparable  but  those  for  1945  include  all  nonwoodland  pas- 
ture that  had  not  been  plowed  during  the  preceding  seven 
years.  For  the  1940  census  and  earlier  years,  the  figures  are 
more  nearly  comparable  with  those  for  the  last  three  censuses. 
However,  the  classification  may  be  somewhat  less  inclusive 
because  land  that  could  have  been  plowed  and  used  for  crops 
without  additional  clearing,  draining,  or  irrigating  was  classi- 
fied as  plowable  pasture  and  included  with  "cropland  used 
only  for  pasture". 

Improved  Pasture. — This  subclass  refers  to  that  portion  of 
"other  pasture"  on  which  one  or  more  of  the  following  prac- 
tices had  been  used :  liming,  fertilizing,  seeding,  irrigating, 
draining,  or  the  clearing  of  weed  or  brush  growth.     The  fig- 
ures are  comparable  with  those  for  1954,  when  the  question 
on  improved  pasture  was  asked  for  the  first  time. 
Other  Land. — This  classification  refers  to  all  land  not  in- 
cluded in  the  preceding  land-use  classifications,  such  as  house 
lots,  barn  lots,  lanes,  roads,  ditches,  land  area  of  ponds,  and 
wasteland.     This  figure  for  1959  was  obtained  from  the  ma- 
chine tabulations  by  subtracting  the  total  of  all  other  uses 
from  the  total  land  in  all  farms  reported  for  a  given  county 
or  classification.    Hence,  there  is  no  figure  given  to  represent 
the  farms  reporting  this  item. 

Value  of  Land  and  Buildings. — Only  average  values  of  land 
and  buildings  per  farm  and  per  acre  are  presented  in  this  report. 
They  are  estimates  based  on  data  obtained  for  sample  farms. 
Estimates  of  the  total  value  of  land  and  buildings  by  States, 
geographic  divisions,  and  the  United  States,  are  presented  in 
volume  II. 

The  enumerator  was  instructed  to  record  the  market  value  of 
the  land  and  the  buildings  on  that  land.  Market  value  was  defined 
as  the  price  which  the  farm  operator  would  expect  to  receive  for 
the  land  and  buildings  if  he  were  to  sell  them  on  the  day  of 
enumeration. 

More  problems  and  difficulties  arise  in  the  enumeration  of  farm- 
real-estate  values  than  in  the  enumeration  of  most  other  agri- 
cultural items.  Most  of  the  items  enumerated  require  the  re- 
spondent to  make  a  statement  of  fact.  For  example,  information 
about  the  number  and  value  of  farm  animals  sold  alive  during  the 
year  is  based  on  actual  transactions.  Similarly,  information  about 
livestock  inventories  relates  to  the  situation  existing  on  a  spe- 
cific place  at  a  specific  time.  Reports  concerning  the  value  of 
land  and  buildings,  however,  are  estimates  based  almost  entirely 
on  opinion.  The  majority  of  farms  have  not  changed  hands  for 
many  years  and  are  not  currently  for  sale.  For  such  farms,  the 
operators  are  not  likely  to  have  any  clear  basis  for  estimating  the 
value.  To  make  an  intelligent  and  objective  estimate,  a  respond- 
ent first  needs  to  make  an  estimate  of  the  prevailing  average 
market  value  of  farms  in  his  community.  Then,  he  must  either 
add  to  or  subtract  from  that  estimate  to  allow  for  the  different 
characteristics  of  his  own  farm.  In  many  cases,  an  operator  who 
would  not  sell  his  farm  under  any  circumstances  may  report  an 
unreasonably  high  market  value.  In  other  cases,  a  farm  operator 
who  acquired  his  real  estate  during  a  period  of  relatively  low 
prices  may  estimate  an  unrealistically  low  value  by  current  stand- 
ards. Because  of  the  extent  of  variation  that  is  known  to  exist 
in  real  estate  values,  it  is  difficult  to  devise  checking  procedures 
that  will  identify  inaccurate  estimates. 

Age  of  Operator. — Farm  operators  were  classified  by  age  into 
six  age  groups.  The  average  age  of  farm  operators  was  derived 
from  the  sum  of  the  ages  of  all  farm  operators  reporting  age 
divided  by  the  number  reporting.  The  number  of  farm  operators 
65  or  more  years  of  age  is  an  actual  count  based  on  the  operators 
reporting  age. 


Residence  of  Operator. — Farm  operators  were  classified  by  resi- 
dence according  to  whether  or  not  they  lived  on  the  farms  they 
were  operating.  Some  of  those  who  did  not  live  on  the  farms 
they  operated  themselves  lived  on  farms  operated  by  others.  In 
cases  where  all  the  land  was  rented  from  others  or  worked  on 
shares  for  others,  the  operator  was  considered  to  live  on  the  farm 
operated  provided  the  dwelling  he  occupied  was  included  in  the 
rental  agreement.  The  dwelling,  in  such  cases,  was  not  neces- 
sarily on  the  land  being  operated.  Similarly,  a  farm  operator 
who  did  not  live  on  the  land  being  cultivated  or  grazed  but  who 
had  some  agricultural  operations  (other  than  a  home  garden) 
at  his  dwelling  was  considered  as  living  on  the  farm  operated. 

Since  some  farm  operators  live  on  their  farms  only  during 
a  part  of  the  year,  comparability  of  the  figures  for  various  cen- 
suses may  be  affected  by  the  date  of  enumeration. 

In  a  few  cases,  the  enumerator  failed  to  report  the  residence  of 
the  farm  operator.  Differences  between  the  total  number  of 
farms  and  the  number  of  farm  operators  classified  by  residence 
indicate  the  extent  of  under-reporting. 

Tear  Began  Operating  Present  Farm. — Enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  report  the  year  during  which  a  farm  operator  began 
to  operate  his  present  farm  and,  if  the  year  was  1958  or  later, 
also  to  report  the  month.  The  year  was  intended  to  refer  to  the 
first  year  of  the  period  during  which  the  operator  had  been  in 
continuous  charge  of  his  present  farm  or  of  any  part  of  it.  The 
time  of  year  that  farmers  move  is  indicated  by  the  month  they 
began  operating  their  farms,  as  shown  by  a  monthly  breakdown 
of  the  reports  for  farmers  who  began  operating  their  present 
farms  during  1958  and  1959. 

Off-Farm  Work  and  Other  Income. — To  obtain  a  measure  of  the 
extent  to  which  farm  operators  rely  on  nonfarm  sources  for  part 
of  their  income,  four  questions  were  asked  of  all  farm  operators. 
The  first  question  asked  for  the  number  of  days  the  operator 
worked  off  his  farm  in  1959.  The  other  three  questions,  to  be 
answered  "Yes"  or  "No,"  asked  (1)  whether  other  members  of  the 
operator's  household  did  any  work  off  the  farm  ;  (2)  whether  any 
income  was  received  from  sources  other  than  the  sale  of  agri- 
cultural products  from  the  farm  operated;  and  (3)  whether  the 
combined  income  of  all  members  of  the  household  from  off-farm 
work  and  other  sources  was  greater  than  the  total  value  of  agri- 
cultural products  sold  from  the  farm  operated. 

Off-farm  work  was  defined  to  include  work  on  someone  else's 
farm  for  pay  as  well  as  all  types  of  nonfarm  jobs,  businesses,  and 
professions,  whether  the  work  was  done  on  the  farm  premises  or 
elsewhere.    Exchange  work  was  not  included. 

The  questions  asked  in  the  1959  Census  are  closely  comparable 
with  those  asked  in  1954.  The  data  for  1959  are  actual  totals  of 
all  operators  reporting  off-farm  work  and  other  income  whereas 
those  for  1954  are  estimated  totals  based  on  the  sample. 

Equipment  and  Facilities. — In  1959  as  in  several  earlier  cen- 
suses, data  about  specified  equipment  and  facilities  were  obtained 
for  only  a  sample  of  farms.  Farm  operators  were  asked  to  report 
equipment  and  facilities  that  were  on  the  farm  at  the  time  of  enu- 
meration, regardless  of  ownership.  They  were  to  include  items 
that  were  temporarily  out  of  order  but  not  any  that  were  worn 
out. 

Data  in  terms  of  actual  number  were  obtained  for  the  follow- 
ing items  of  farm  equipment  in  1959 :  (1)  grain  combines,  (2)  corn 
pickers,  (3)  pick-up  balers,  (4)  field  forage  harvesters,  (5)  mo- 
tortrucks, (6)  wheel  tractors,  (7)  garden  tractors,  (8)  crawler 
tractors,  and  (9)  automobiles.  Definitions  given  enumerators  in- 
cluded the  following  specifications,  among  others :  Corn  pickers 
related  to  all  types  of  machines  used  for  picking  corn,  whether 
used  in  separate  or  in  combined  picking-shelling  operations. 
Pick-up  balers  were  to  include  both  hand-tie  and  automatic  balers 
but  not  stationary  ones.  Motortrucks  were  to  include  pick-up 
trucks  and  truck-trailer  combinations;  jeeps  and  station  wagons 


XVIII 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


were  also  to  be  included  if  they  were  used  primarily  as  trucks, 
but  school  buses  were  specifically  excluded.  Wheel  tractors  spe- 
cifically excluded  garden  tractors,  implements  with  built-in  power 
units,  such  as  self-propelled  combines  or  powered  buck  rakes,  and 
the  power  unit  of  a  truck-trailer  combination.  Automobiles  were 
to  include  jeeps  and  station  wagons  if  they  were  used  primarily 
as  passenger  cars. 

Questions  to  be  answered  "Yes"  or  "No"  provided  information 
as  to  the  presence  or  absence  of  the  following  items:  (1)  tele- 
phone, (2)  home  freezer,  (3)  milking  machine,  (4)  electric  milk 
cooler,  (5)  bulk-type  milk  cooler  (in  six  States  only — Michigan, 
Minnesota,  New  York,  Ohio,  Pennsylvania,  and  Wisconsin), 
(6)  crop  drier  and  (7)  power-operated  elevator,  conveyor,  or 
blower. 

Comparable  data  from  one  census  to  another  are  not  available 
for  all  items.  The  questions  asked  about  equipment  during  a 
given  census  reflect  changes  in  farm  mechanization  and  in  the 
facilities  available  to  farm  families.  Questions  about  some  items 
of  equipment  were  asked  in  1959  for  the  first  time  (electric  milk 
cooler,  crop  drier,  bulk-type  milk  cooler,  etc.).  Similarly,  some 
questions  that  were  asked  in  earlier  censuses  were  omitted  in 
1959.  For  example,  the  use  of  electricity  is  now  so  widespread 
that  there  is  no  longer  any  need  for  obtaining  a  count  of  the 
farms  having  it. 

Farms  by  Kind  of  Road. — The  classification  of  farms  by  the  kind 
of  road  on  which  they  are  located  is  based  on  only  a  sample  of 
farms.  The  enumerator  was  instructed  to  report,  on  the  basis 
of  his  own  observation,  the  kind  of  road  on  which  the  most 
frequently  used  entrance  to  the  farm  was  located.  For  farms 
consisting  of  two  or  more  tracts,  he  was  to  limit  his  report  to  the 
tract  on  which  the  farm  operator  had  his  dwelling  or  other 
headquarters. 

Farm  Labor. — The  questions  about  farm  labor  were  asked  only 
for  the  sample  farms  and  related  to  persons  working  during 
the  calendar  week  preceding  the  week  of  enumeration.  Since 
the  enumeration  starting  dates  varied  by  geographic  areas,  and 
the  enumeration  within  each  area  lasted  over  a  period  of  several 
weeks,  the  calendar  weeks  to  which  the  data  apply  also  vary. 
Thus,  the  data  for  an  individual  farm  may  relate  to  any  one 
week  during  the  months  of  October,  November,  or  December,  or 
even,  in  a  few  instances,  to  weeks  during  September  1959  or 
January  1960. 

Farm  labor  was  defined  to  include  any  work,  chores,  or  planning 
necessary  to  the  agricultural  operations  of  the  farm  ;  and  to  ex- 
elude  housework,  contract  construction  work,  custom  machine 
work,  and  repair,  installation,  or  construction  work  done  by  per- 
sons employed  specifically  for  such  work.  The  farm  labor  in- 
formation contained  in  this  report  represents  estimates  based  on 
answers  to  questions  relating  to  the  farm  work  or  chores  done 
during  the  week  by  (1)  operator,  (2)  unpaid  members  of  the 
operator's  family,  and  (3)  hired  persons.  An  operator  was 
considered  as  working  if  he  worked  one  or  more  hours ;  unpaid 
members  of  the  operator's  family,  if  they  worked  15  or  more 
hours ;  and  hired  persons,  if  they  worked  at  all  during  the  week. 

Data  are  not  fully  comparable  from  one  census  to  another, 
primarily  because  of  differences  in  the  period  to  which  they  relate. 
In  1954,  the  data  were  purposely  related  to  either  one  of  two 
calendar  weeks,  depending  in  part  on  the  starting  date  set  for 
the  enumeration  and  in  part  on  which  week  represented  a  period 
of  peak  employment  within  a  given  State.  For  the  majority  of 
States,  the  period  specified  was  the  week  of  September  26-October 
2 ;  for  other  States,  the  week  of  October  24-30. 

In  1950,  as  in  1959,  the  data  related  to  the  week  preceding  the 
actual  enumeration.  Unlike  1959,  however,  enumeration  starting 
dates  were  identical  for  all  States  in  1950  (April  1)  but  since 
several  weeks  were  required  to  complete  the  enumeration,  the 
calendar  week  preceding  the  enumeration  was  not  identical  for 


all  farms.  In  1945  and  1935,  the  number  of  farm  workers  related 
to  the  first  week  in  January  and,  in  1940,  to  the  last  week  in 
March.  In  1945,  1940,  and  1935,  only  persons  working  the  equiv- 
alent of  two  or  more  days  during  the  specified  week  were  to  be 
included.  In  1945  and  1940,  an  additional  specification  limited 
the  workers  to  those  14  years  old  and  over. 

Experience  gained  from  earlier  censuses  indicates  that  farm 
labor  data  are  often  unsatisfactorily  reported  unless  the  week 
specified  is  the  week  immediately  preceding  the  actual  enumer- 
ation. When  a  farm  operator  was  asked  to  report  the  number  of 
persons  employed  during  a  specified  week  that  was  several  weeks 
prior  to  enumeration,  he  often  reported  the  highest  number  of 
persons  employed  during  the  year.  Obviously  incorrect  reports 
were  adjusted  to  make  the  data  reflect  more  nearly  the  situation 
known  to  exist  during  the  specified  week.  The  farm  labor  data 
for  1954  relates  to  a  specified  week  which,  in  some  cases,  was  sev- 
eral weeks  prior  to  enumeration.  Few  adjustments  were  made 
in  those  data,  however,  even  though  there  were  indications  of 
incorrect  reporting. 

Regular  and  Seasonal  Workers. — Hired  persons  working  on 
the  farm  during  the  week  concerned  were  classed  as  "regular" 
workers  if  the  period  of  actual  or  expected  employment  was  150 
days  or  more  during  the  year.  They  were  classed  as  "seasonal" 
workers  if  the  period  of  actual  or  expected  employment  was 
less  than  150  days.  In  cases  where  the  period  of  employment 
was  not  reported  for  an  individual  farm,  it  was  estimated  from 
data  for  such  items  as  basis  of  payment,  wage  rates,  expendi- 
tures for  labor  in  1959,  and  type  of  farming  operations. 

Hired  Workers  by  Basis  of  Payment. — Hired  persons  were 
also  classified  according  to  whether  they  were  paid  on  a 
monthly,  weekly,  daily,  or  hourly  basis,  or  by  piecework.  In 
cases  of  incomplete  reporting,  the  basis  of  payment  for  hired 
workers  was  supplied  during  the  office  processing  operations. 

Wage  Rates  and  Hours  Worked. — The  agreed  cash  rate  of  pay 
was  asked  for  each  class  of  hired  worker  except  those  em- 
ployed on  a  piecework  basis.  (The  number  and  the  earnings  of 
persons  paid  on  a  piecework  basis  were  required  for  those  who 
worked  on  Friday  of  the  week  preceding  the  enumeration.) 
The  number  of  hours  that  workers  were  expected  to  work  to 
earn  their  pay  was  asked  for  each  class  except  those  employed 
on  an  hourly  or  piecework  basis.  For  1959  and  1954,  the  data 
include  office  estimates  for  farms  submitting  incomplete  reports 
of  wage  rates  and  hours  worked.  The  estimates  were  consistent 
with  the  size  and  type  of  operations  for  the  individual  farm  as 
compared  with  similar  farms  in  the  area  for  which  complete 
reports  were  received.  The  corresponding  data  for  1950  apply 
only  to  farms  that  reported  both  wage  rates  and  hours  worked. 

Fertilizer  and  Lime. — The  questions  about  fertilizer  and  lime, 
asked  only  for  the  sample  farms,  relate  to  the  acreage  on  which 
fertilizer  and  lime  were  used  and  to  the  quantity  used.  Farm 
operators  were  asked  to  report  total  quantities  used  in  1959  on 
the  farms  they  operated  regardless  of  when  or  by  whom  the  ferti- 
lizer and  lime  were  purchased.  In  the  South,  some  landlords 
who  operated  farms  themselves  included  the  fertilizer  and  lime 
they  had  purchased  for  use  on  their  tenant-operated  land.  Such 
fertilizer  and  lime  may  also  have  been  reported  by  the  tenants. 
When  double  reporting  was  detected  during  the  editing  process, 
the  data  on  the  questionnaires  concerned  were  adjusted  to  elim- 
inate duplication  in  the  totals. 

The  1959  data  for  fertilizer  and  lime  are  entirely  comparable 
with  those  for  1954.  A  breakdown  between  dry  and  liquid  fer- 
tilizing materials  was  not  obtained  in  1954  and  data  on  cost 
of  either  fertilizer  or  lime  were  not  obtained  in  1959. 

Fertilizer. — The  report  for  fertilizer  was  to  refer  only  to  com- 
mercial fertilizer  and  fertilizing  materials,  including  rock 
phosphate.  The  acres  fertilized  and  the  tons  of  fertilizer  ap- 
plied to  those  acres  were  obtained  separately  for  selected  crops. 
The  selected  crops  varied  by  region  so  that  it  was  possible  to 
obtain  detailed  data  for  the  crops  most  commonly  fertilized 
in  each  region.  In  cases  where  the  same  land  was  used  for 
more  than  one  crop,  the  acres  fertilized  were  to  be  reported 
separately  for  each  crop.  If  the  same  crop  was  fertilized 
more  than  once,  however,  the  acres  in  that  crop  were  to  be 
reported  only  once.    In  all  cases,   the  total  quantity  of  fer-

tilizer  used  in  1959  was  to  be  reported,  including  quantities 
used  on  land  occupied  by  crops  planted  in  1958  or  by  crops 
to  be  harvested  in  1960. 

Reports  for  quantity  of  fertilizer  and  fertilizing  materials 
used  were  required  for  both  dry  and  liquid  materials.  The 
terms  "dry"  and  "liquid"  referred  to  the  form  in  which  the 
fertilizers  and  fertilizing  materials  were  purchased  and  not 
to  the  way  in  which  they  were  applied.  Thus,  dry  fertilizers 
were  those  purchased  in  dry  or  solid  form,  as  powders,  dusts, 
granules,  pellets,  etc. ;  liquid  fertilizers  were  those  purchased 
in  fluid  form,  as  solutions  or  as  liquified  gases. 

Lime. — The  data  for  lime  relate  to  the  total  acreage  limed  in 
1959  and  the  total  tonnage  of  lime  and  liming  materials  used 
on  those  acres  for  purposes  of  conditioning  the  soil.  Instruc- 
tions on  the  questionnaire  stated  that  ground  limestone,  hy- 
drated  and  burnt  lime,  marl,  and  oyster  shells  were  to  be 
included  but  that  lime  used  for  spraying  or  sanitation  purposes 
was  to  be  omitted. 

For  some  counties,  the  tonnage  of  lime  shown  in  the  table 
may  be  less  than  the  tonnage  reported  for  the  Agriculture  Con- 
servation Program  or  the  Conservation  Reserve  Program  of 
the  Soil  Bank.  Differences  may  be  due  either  to  sampling 
error  or  to  under-reporting  by  farm  operators.  Many  of  the 
differences  are  minimized  or  eliminated  entirely  in  the  data 
presented  on  a  State  or  regional  basis. 

Specified  Farm  Expenditures.- — The  data  for  farm  expenditures 
are  estimates  based  on  reports  obtained  from  the  sample  farms. 
The  1959  questionnaire  contained  questions  for  six  items  of  farm 
expenditure:  (1)  purchase  of  feed  for  livestock  and  poultry, 
(2)  purchase  of  livestock  and  poultry,  (3)  machine  hire, 
(4)  hired  labor,  (5)  seeds,  bulbs,  plants,  and  trees,  and  (6)  gaso- 
line and  other  petroleum  fuel  and  oil.  With  the  exception  of 
items  (2)  and  (5),  exactly  the  same  questions  were  asked  in 
1954.  For  each  item  specified,  the  total  expenditures  made  for 
the  farm  in  1959  were  to  be  reported,  whether  made  by  the 
farm  operator,  his  landlord,  or  both.  A  farm  operator  who 
rented  part  of  his  land  to  others  was  to  report  only  the  ex- 
penditures for  the  land  he  operated  himself.  Enumerators  were 
instructed  to  ask  respondents  who  had  difficulty  estimating 
their  expenses  for  the  period  between  enumeration  and  the  end 
of  the  year  to  estimate  them  on  the  basis  of  current  costs. 

Peed. — The  report  on  feed  purchased  for  livestock  and  poultry 
was  to  include  expenditures  for  grain,  hay,  millfeeds,  pasture, 
salt,  condiments,  concentrates,  and  mineral  supplements  as 
well  as  for  the  grinding  and  mixing  of  feed.  The  estimated 
cost  of  items  furnished  by  a  landlord,  contractor,  or  other 
owner  for  feeding  poultry  and  livestock  kept  on  the  farm  was 
also  to  be  included.  Payments  made  by  a  tenant  to  his  land- 
lord for  feed  grown  on  the  tenant  farm  were  to  be  excluded. 

livestock  and  Poultry. — The  cost  of  baby  chicks  and  turkey 
poults  was  to  be  included  in  the  expenditures  made  for  the 
purchase  of  livestock  and  poultry.  Enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  ask  the  farm  operator  to  include  the  cost  or  esti- 
mated purchase  value  of  poultry  and  livestock  provided  by 
others  and  cared  for  by  the  operator  under  a  contract  feeding 
arrangement.  The  cost  of  livestock  purchased  for  resale  within 
30  days  was  not  to  be  included.  A  short-term  transaction  of 
that  nature  was  considered  to  be  a  dealer  operation,  not  an 
agricultural  one. 

Data  on  the  purchase  of  livestock  and  poultry  were  not  ob- 
tained in  1954.  The  instructions  for  the  1950  census  specified 
that  expenditures  for  domestic  rabbits,  fur-bearing  animals 
kept  in  captivity,  and  bees  were  to  be  included.  Any  lack  of 
comparability  in  the  1950  and  1959  data  resulting  from  inclu- 
sion or  exclusion  of  rabbits,  fur-bearing  animals,  or  bees  is 
considered  to  be  so  slight  as  to  be  insignificant 

Machine  Hire. — Expenditures  for  machine  hire  relate  to  cus- 
tom machine  work,  such  as  tractor  hire,  threshing,  grain  or 
seed  combining,  silo  filling,  baling,  cotton  picking,  cotton  gin- 
ning, corn  picking,  plowing,  vegetable  harvesting,  fruit  pick- 
ing, spraying,  and  dusting.  Any  amount  spent  for  the  labor 
included  in  the  cost  of  machine  hire  was  to  be  considered  as 
part  of  the  total  expenditure.  The  cost  of  freight  or  trucking 
and  exchange  work  without  pay  were  to  be  omitted. 

Hired  Labor. — Expenditures  for  hired  labor  were  to  include 
total  cash  payments  made  in  1959  to  family  members  and  to 
others  for  farm  labor.  Payments  to  persons  supplied  by  a  con- 
tractor or  a  cooperative  organization  and  paid  directly  by 
them  or  by  the  crew  boss  were  also  to  be  included.   Payments 


for  the  following  types  of  work  were  to  be  excluded :  house- 
work, contract  construction  work,  custom  machine  work,  and 
repair,  installation,  or  construction  work  done  by  persons  spe- 
cifically employed  for  such  work. 

Gasoline  and  Other  Petroleum  Fuel  and  Oil. — Expenditures  for 
gasoline  and  other  petroleum  fuel  and  oil  were  to  relate  only 
to  the  products  used  in  the  farm  business.  Enumerators  were 
instructed  to  exclude  the  cost  of  petroleum  products  used 
for  the  family  automobile  when  operated  for  other  than  farm 
business  purposes  and  of  products  used  in  the  farmhouse  for 
heating,  cooking,  and  lighting. 

Seeds,  Bulbs,  Plants,  and  Trees. — Expenditures  were  to  repre- 
sent the  total  amount  spent  for  seeds,  bulbs,  plants,  and  trees 
to  be  used  on  the  farm  operated.  The  value  of  seed  grown  on 
the  farm  was  to  be  excluded.  For  nurseries  and  greenhouses, 
the  cost  of  products  purchased  for  immediate  resale  was  also 
to  be  excluded. 

This  item  of  expenditure  was  not  included  in  the  1954  Census. 
The  data  are  comparable  with  those  for  1950,  however. 

Crops 

Crops  Harvested. — The  1959  agriculture  questionnaire  was  simi- 
lar to  the  questionnaire  used  in  several  previous  censuses  in 
that  it  provided  for  the  collection  of  detailed  data  for  all  crops 
harvested  on  each  individual  farm.  The  variation  in  the  crops 
listed  on  the  questionnaires  used  in  different  States  made  pos-- 
sible  the  separate  reporting  of  all  important  crops  grown  in  a 
given  area.  All  versions  of  the  questionnaire  contained  several 
"All  other  crops"  questions  where  crops  not  specifically  listed  in 
separate  questions  were  to  be  reported. 

Acreage  of  Crops  Harvested. — In  most  instances,  the  acreage 
reported  for  individual  crops  represents  the  area  harvested 
during  1959.  The  area  harvested  is  often  less  than  the  area 
planted.  For  fruit  orchards  and  groves,  vineyards,  and  planted 
nut  trees,  the  acreage  reported  represents  the  total  area  in 
both  bearing  and  nonbearing  trees  and  vines  as  of  the  date  of 
enumeration — usually  a  date  in  October,  November,  or  Decem- 
ber 1959.  For  soybeans,  cowpeas,  and  peanuts,  the  acreage 
grown  for  all  purposes  was  reported  as  well  as  the  acreage  har- 
vested for  specific  purposes.  For  velvet  beans,  only  the  acreage 
grown  was  reported.  As  the  enumeration  was  about  to  begin 
in  South  Florida  (those  counties  in  which  the  enumeration  was 
begun  on  October  7),  an  instruction  was  issued  to  the  effect 
that  the  data  for  vegetables  and  potato  crops  should  relate 
to  a  full  year,  beginning  on  October  1,  1958,  and  ending  Sep- 
tember 30, 1959. 

Quantity  of  Crops  Harvested.— Except  for  citrus  fruits,  olives, 
avocados,  and  for  vegetable  and  potato  crops  in  South  Florida 
(see  preceding  paragraph)  data  for  quantity  harvested  relate 
to  the  calendar  year  1959.  For  citrus  fruits,  the  quantity 
harvested  from  the  bloom  of  1958  for  the  1958-59  marketing 
season  was  to  be  reported.  For  olives,  the  crop  harvested  in 
1959  was  to  be  reported  for  all  States  except  California  and 
Arizona.  Enumerators  in  those  two  States  were  instructed  to 
report  olives  harvested  from  the  bloom  of  1958  during  the  1958- 
59  harvest  season  (September  15,  1958,  to  February  28,  1959). 
In  the  case  of  avocados,  the  data  for  California  were  to  relate 
to  the  quantity  harvested  from  the  bloom  of  1958  for  the 
marketing  season  that  extended  from  October  1,  1958  to  Sep- 
tember 30,  1959;  the  data  for  Florida  were  to  relate  to  the 
crop  harvested  for  the  marketing  season  that  extended  from 
July  1,  1959,  to  February  28,  1960.  Respondents  were  to 
estimate  quantities  not  yet  harvested  at  the  time  of 
enumeration. 

Unit  of  Measure. — The  unit  of  measure  in  which  quantities 
were  to  be  reported  has  varied  for  some  crops,  not  only  from 
State  to  State,  but  also  from  census  to  census.  The  aim  has 
been  to  permit  reporting  in  the  units  of  measure  currently 
in  use.  In  the  State  and  county  tables,  the  quantities  harvested 
for  each  crop  are  usually  expressed  in  the  unit  of  measure 
given  on  the  1959  agriculture  questionnaire.  In  1959,  for  corn 
and  Irish  potatoes,  a  choice  between  two  units  in  which  to 
report  the  production  was  given  in  some  States.  (See  the 
discussion  for  those  crops.)  To  provide  readily  comparable 
information,  data  published  in  earlier  reports  in  different  units 
of  measure  generally  have  been  converted  to  the  units  used  in 
1959. 

Corn. — In  the  1959  census,  detailed  questions  regarding  the 
purpose  for  which  corn  was  harvested  were  asked  in  all  States. 
For  most  States,  bushels  was  the  only  unit  specified  for  corn 


XX 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


for  grain.  In  some  areas,  however,  where  farmers  "were  not 
accustomed  to  using  bushels  as  the  unit  of  measure,  the  question- 
naire contained  a  provision  for  the  quantity  of  corn  for  grain 
to  be  reported  either  in  bushels  (shelled  basis)  or  in  baskets  of 
ear  corn.  As  in  former  censuses,  some  reports  were  received 
in  units  of  measure  other  than  bushels  or  baskets.  Prior  to 
tabulation,  all  reports  were  converted  to  bushels  (shelled  basis) 
on  the  basis  of  the  following  factors:  70  pounds  of  ear  corn, 
2  baskets  of  ears,  or  56  pounds  of  shelled  corn  equal  one  bushel. 
A  barrel  of  ear  corn  was  usually  considered  equal  to  5  bushels  of 
shelled  corn. 

Annual  legumes. For  soybeans,  cowpeas,  and  peanuts,  the 

acres  and  quantity  grown  or  harvested  for  specific  purposes,  as 
well  as  the  total  acreage  grown  for  all  purposes,  were  obtained 
for  areas  where  these  crops  are  grown  extensively ;  for  velvet- 
beans,  only  the  total  grown  for  all  purposes  was  obtained.  For 
all  these  crops  except,  possibly  peanuts,  the  total  acreage  grown 
for  all  purposes  includes  some  acreage  that  was  plowed  under 
for  green  manure.  In  a  few  Southern  States,  separate  figures 
were  obtained  for  the  acres  grown  alone  and  the  acres  grown 
with  other  crops.  In  1959,  as  in  1954,  enumerators  were  in- 
structed to  report  green  soybeans  and  blackeyes  and  other  green 
cowpeas  harvested  for  sale  as  vegetables  and  not  as  annual 
legumes. 

Hay  Crops. — Data  for  the  total  acres  of  land  from  which  hay 
was  cut  exclude  the  acreage  in  sorghum,  soybean,  cowpea,  and 
peanut  hays.  These  crops  were  reported  in  separate  questions 
in  the  States  where  they  are  important.  To  obtain  the  total 
acres  from  which  other  hays  were  cut,  the  acres  of  the  various 
hay  crops,  including  grass  silage,  were  added  together  for  each 
county.  The  corresponding  totals  for  1954  were  obtained  by 
the  same  procedure.  For  the  1950  census,  however,  the  totals 
were  based  on  farmers'  own  reports  of  their  total  acreage  in 
harvested  hay  crops. 

The  questionnaire  contained  an  instruction  that  if  two  or  more 
cuttings  were  made  from  the  same  land,  the  total  production 
from  all  cuttings  was  to  be  reported  but  the  acres  cut  were  to 
be  counted  only  once.  In  cases  where  both  hay  and  grass  silage 
were  cut  from  the  same  land,  the  total  acreage  was  to  be  reported 
for  both  crops.  In  1959,  as  in  1954,  alfalfa  hay  included  alfalfa 
and  alfalfa  mixtures  for  hay  and  for  dehydrating ;  clover  and 
timothy  hay  included  clover,  timothy,  and  mixtures  of  clover  and 
grasses ;  small  grain  hay  included  oats,  wheat,  barley,  rye,  or 
other  small  grains  cut  for  hay.  The  hay  crops  listed  on  the 
questionnaire  varied  somewhat  from  one  State  or  region  to 
another.  The  kinds  of  hay  to  be  included  in  separate  questions 
can  be  determined  for  a  specific  State  from  reference  to  the 
facsimile  of  the  questionnaire  that  is  in  the  appendix. 

The  tonnage  of  hay,  including  alfalfa  hay  for  dehydrating,  is 
given  on  a  dry-weight  basis.  Prior  to  tabulation,  production 
reported  in  green  weight  was  converted  to  its  dry-weight  equiv- 
alent by  dividing  by  3.  However,  the  production  of  grass  silage 
is  given  in  terms  of  green  weight. 

Field  Seed  Crops. — The  field  seed  crops  listed  on  each  version 
of  the  questionnaire  were  limited  to  those  considered  most  im- 
portant within  the  given  State.  Each  version  of  the  question- 
naire contained  space  for  listing  other  field  seed  crops  in  order 
to  facilitate  the  reporting  of  all  field  seed  crops  harvested. 
Quantity  harvested  was  to  be  reported  in  terms  of  clean  seed 
for  most  field  seed  crops.  Bluegrass,  or  Junegrass  seed,  was  to 
be  reported  in  terms  of  green  seed  for  Iowa,  Kansas,  K  ntucky, 
Minnesota,  Missouri,  Nebraska,  North  Dakota,  South  Dakata,  and 
Tennessee.  No  mention  was  made  of  "green-weight  basis"  for 
other  States  where  this  crop  was  to  be  reported  in  the  "All  other" 
question. 

Irish  Potatoes  and  Sweetpotatoes. — For  Irish  potatoes  and 
sweetpotatoes  (including  yams),  the  total  quantity  harvested  was 

to  be  reported  for  each  crop  in  all  cases,  whether  harvested  for 


home  use  or  for  sale  or  whether  used  for  livestock  feed.  The 
acreage  harvested  was  to  be  reported  for  each  crop  only  in  cases 
where  the  quantity  amounted  to  20  or  more  bushels  (or  the 
approximate  equivalent  in  terms  of  hundredweights,  barrels,  or 
pounds,  as  explained  on  different  versions  of  the  questionnaire). 
This  method  of  reporting  was  designed  to  facilitate  the  enumera- 
tion of  potatoes  harvested  on  small  plots  for  home  use.  Essen- 
tially the  same  procedure  was  followed  in  both  1954  and  1950. 
In  earlier  censuses,  however,  the  acreage  of  Irish  potatoes  and 
sweetpotatoes  was  to  be  reported  in  all  cases,  even  when  produc- 
tion was  solely  for  home  use.  Therefore,  the  data  on  acres  for 
censuses  prior  to  1950  are  not  fully  comparable  with  those  for 
the  last  three  censuses,  especially  in  counties  or  States  where 
production  is  largely  for  home  use. 

The  unit  of  measure  in  which  quantity  was  to  be  reported 
varied  from  one  State  or  region  to  another  to  correspond  with 
the  units  most  commonly  used  in  a  given  area.  In  27  States, 
the  questionnaire  provided  a  choice  for  reporting  either  bushels 
or  100-pound  bags  (hundredweights).  The  published  data  for 
counties  and  States  are  in  terms  of  bushels. 

Berries  and  Other  Small  Fruits. — The  question  for  berries  and 
other  small  fruits  related  specifically  to  the  acreages  and  quanti- 
ties harvested  for  sale.  Only  tame  or  cultivated  berries  were  to 
be  reported  except  for  the  New  England  States,  where  wild  blue- 
berries were  also  to  be  included.  Enumerators  were  instructed 
always  to  report  the  total  quantity  of  each  kind  of  berry  har- 
vested for  sale  but  to  report  the  area  harvested  only  when  it 
amounted  to  one-tenth  acre  or  more.  Nonbearing  areas  and  areas 
and  quantities  harvested  for  home  use  were  to  be  excluded.  The 
data  for  1959  and  1954  are  fully  comparable. 

Tree  Fruits,  Nuts,  and  Grapes. — In  1959,  as  in  1954,  fruit  trees, 
nut  trees,  and  grapevines  were  not  enumerated  for  farms  having 
a  combined  total  of  less  than  20  at  the  time  of  enumeration. 
Both  bearing  and  nonbearing  trees  and  vines  were  to  be  included 
but  not  any  that  had  been  abandoned.  For  censuses  prior  to 
1954,  all  fruit  or  nut  trees  and  grapevines  on  the  farm  were 
to  be  enumerated,  regardless  of  the  number.  Because  of  this 
change  in  enumeration  procedure,  the  data  for  1959  and  1954 
are  not  fully  comparable  with  those  for  earlier  censuses.  In 
commercial  fruit-producing  counties,  the  change  in  procedure 
may  have  had  a  considerable  effect  on  the  number  of  farms  re- 
porting without  causing  any  significant  changes  in  the  number 
of  trees  and  vines  nor  in  the  quantity  harvested.  In  counties 
where  most  of  the  trees  or  vines  are  in  small  plantings  and 
where  production  is  largely  for  home-use,  however,  the  change 
may  have  caused  a  significant  reduction  not  only  in  the  number 
of  farms  reporting  but  also  in  the  number  of  trees  and  vines  and 
in  the  quantity  harvested. 

In  both  1959  and  1954,  the  area  in  fruit  orchards,  groves, 
vineyards,  and  planted  nut  trees  was  enumerated  when  there 
were  20  or  more  fruit  trees,  nut  trees,  and  grapevines.  In 
1950,  the  corresponding  area  was  enumerated  only  if  it  amounted 
to  one-half  acre  or  more.  In  censuses  prior  to  1950,  the  area  was 
to  be  reported  regardless  of  its  size  or  of  the  number  of  trees 
and  vines.  Enumerators  frequently  omitted  the  fractional  acre- 
ages in  small  plantings  and  home  orchards,  however.  In  some 
counties,  small  plantings  or  home  orchards  comprise  a  sizeable 
proportion  of  the  total  fruit  and  nut  acreage.  For  those 
counties,  the  change  from  one  census  to  another  in  acreage  of 
land  in  fruits  and  nuts  may  not  be  due  to  fact  but  merely  to 
differences  in  enumeration. 

In  1959,  California  was  the  only  State  for  which  the  acreage 
in  each  individual  fruit  and  nut  crop  was  obtained.  In  1954, 
such  acreage  was  also  obtained  for  Arizona.  In  all  States,  the 
number  of  bearing  and  nonbearing  trees  or  vines  on  the  farm  at 
the  time  of  enumeration  and  the  quantity  harvested  In  1959 
were  to  be  reported  separately  for  each  fruit  and  nut  crop.  (Ex- 
ceptions in  the  harvest  period  for  citrus  fruits,  avdcados,  and

olives  are  described  on  p.  XIX.)  The  unit  of  measure  in  which 
quantities  were  to  be  reported  varied  from  one  State  to  another. 
Tables  in  this  report  show  quantities  in  the  unit  of  measure 
appearing  on  the  1959  questionnaire  used  in  the  State. 

Nursery  and  Greenhouse  Products. — The  questions  about  nursery 
and  greenhouse  products  related  only  to  products  grown  on  the 
place  for  sale.  Crops  bought  for  resale  without  additional  cul- 
tivation were  to  be  excluded.  The  area  used  for  growing  and 
the  value  of  sales  were  to  be  reported  separately  for  each  of 
three  groups,  as  follows : 

a.  Nursery  products,   (trees,  shrubs,  vines,  and  ornamentals). 

b.  Cut  flowers,  potted  plants,  florist  greens,  and  bedding  plants. 
For  these  items,  the  area  grown  in  the  open  was  to  be  re- 
ported separately  from  the  area  grown  under  glass. 

c.  Vegetables  grown  under  glass,  flower  seeds,  vegetable  seeds, 
vegetable  plants,  bulbs,  and  mushrooms.  For  these  items, 
the  area  grown  in  the  open  was  to  be  reported  separately 
from  the  area  grown  under  glass  or  in  the  house. 

The  data  obtained  for  1959  are  comparable  with  those  for 
1954  and  1950  since  the  questions  asked  were  essentially  the 
same  in  the  three  censuses.  Detailed  data  regarding  the  pro- 
duction and  sale  of  nursery,  greenhouse,  and  other  horticultural 
products  on  farms  having  sales  of  $2,000  will  be  published  in 
volume  V,  part  1. 

Forest  Products. — The  forest  products  data  obtained  in  the 
Census  of  Agriculture  relate  only  to  the  products  cut  on  farms. 
Commercial  logging,  timber  operations,  and  forest  products  grown 
or  cut  on  nonfarm  places  are  excluded.  Therefore,  the  data  in 
this  report  do  not  represent  the  total  forestry  output  or  income 
for  a  county  or  State. 

The  questions  included  on  the  1959  agriculture  questionnaire 
are  more  detailed  than  those  asked  in  the  1954  Census.  Value 
was  obtained  for  the  sale  of  standing  timber  or  trees  and  for 
the  sale  of  poles  and  piling,  bark,  bolts,  and  mine  timbers.  The 
quantity  cut,  whether  for  home  use  or  sale,  and  the  quantity  sold 
were  obtained  for  individual  forestry  products  such  as  firewood 
and  f uelwood,  fence  posts,  sawlogs  and  veneer  logs.  Data  relating 
to  pulpwood,  Christmas  trees,  maple  trees,  and  maple  syrup  were 
obtained  in  States  where  such  products  are  important 
commercially. 

Value  of  Crops  Harvested. — The  total  value  of  crops  harvested 
represents  the  estimated  value  of  all  crops  harvested  during  the 
crop  year  1959.  It  includes  the  value  of  quantities  consumed 
on  farms  as  food,  feed,  seed,  etc.,  as  well  as  quantities  sold. 
Farmers  were  not  asked  to  report  values  of  crops  harvested ; 
the  values  were  calculated  in  the  Processing  Office.  For  individ- 
ual crops,  the  quantity  harvested  was  multiplied  by  the  average 
price  at  which  the  crop  was  sold  in  the  State.  State  average 
prices  were  furnished  to  the  Bureau  of  the  Census  by  the  Agricul- 
tural Marketing  Service  of  the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture. 
They  are  based  on  reports  received  from  a  sample  of  farmers  and 
dealers.  Quantities  harvested  were  not  obtained  for  vegetables 
nor  for  nursery  and  greenhouse  products.  Therefore,  for  those 
crops,  the  value  of  sales,  as  obtained  in  the  enumeration,  was  used 
in  the  calculation  of  total  value  of  crops  harvested. 

Value  of  Crops  Sold. — The  questionnaire  required  value  of  sales 
of  crops  to  be  reported  only  for  total  vegetables,  nursery  and 
greenhouse  products,  and  certain  forest  products.  For  all  other 
crops,  the  value  of  sales  was  calculated  on  a  county  level  during 
processing  operations  by  multiplying  the  State  average  prices 
by  either  the  quantity  sold  or  the  quantity  harvested.  Reports 
of  quantity  sold  were  obtained  during  the  enumeration  only  for 
some  of  the  major  field  crops.  Quantity  harvested  was  used  in 
the  calculation  of  value  of  crops  sold  for  such  crops  as  cotton, 
tobacco,  etc.,  that  are  customarily  grown  for  sale.  The  procedures 
used  for  the  various  crops  are  described  on  page  XXV.    They 


are  similar  to  the  procedures  followed  in  1954.    In  1950,  values 
of  crops  sold  were  obtained  for  each  farm  during  the  enumeration. 

Irrigation 

Definition  of  Irrigated  land. — Irrigated  laud  is  defined  as  land 
watered  for  agricultural  purposes  by  artificial  means.  These 
means  included  subirrigation  as  well  as  systems  whereby  water 
was  applied  to  the  ground  surface,  either  directly  or  by  sprinklers. 
Land  flooded  for  rice  cultivation  was  considered  as  irrigated. 
Land  flooded  during  high-water  periods  was  to  be  included  as 
irrigated  only  if  water  was  directed  to  agricultural  use  by  dams, 
canals,  or  other  works.  The  definition  of  irrigated  land  specif- 
ically excluded  land  where  the  "water  table",  or  natural  level 
of  underground  water,  was  controlled  by  drainage  works  with  no 
additional  water  brought  In  by  canals  or  pipes. 

Enumeration  of  Irrigated  Land. — A  question  on  total  land  irri- 
gated was  asked  in  all  States,  with  the  exception  of  Alaska.  The 
acreage  reported  for  this  question  includes  not  only  irrigated 
cropland  but  also  any  other  land  that  was  irrigated  in  1959. 

The  questionnaires  used  in  the  17  Western  States,  Louisiana, 
and  Hawaii  included  several  additional  questions  regarding  irri- 
gation. These  questions  related  to  the  acreage  of  land  irrigated 
by  sprinklers,  irrigated  land  from  which  crops  were  harvested, 
specific  crops  irrigated,  and  source  of  irrigation  water.  Such 
additional  data,  for  irrigated  farms,  are  presented  in  county 
table  la  for  these  States. 

Statistics  on  the  irrigation  enterprises  which  supplied  irriga- 
tion water  were  collected  in  the  1969  Census  of  Irrigation  and 
are  published  in  Volume  III,  "Irrigation  of  Agricultural  Lands". 
This  report  contains  a  considerable  amount  of  data  about  irri- 
gation for  the  17  Western  States  and  Louisiana. 

Irrigated  Farms. — All  farms  reporting  any  land  irrigated  in 
1959  are  counted  as  irrigated  farms. 

Land  in  Irrigated  Farms.— Data  for  land  in  irrigated  farms  ac- 
cording to  use  relate  to  the  entire  acreage  in  these  farms,  in- 
cluding land  that  was  not  irrigated. 

Land  Irrigated. — Data  for  land  irrigated  relate  only  to  that 
part  of  the  land  in  irrigated  farms  that  was  watered  by  artificial 
means  at  any  time  in  1959.  Separate  figures  are  given  for  farms 
reporting  land  irrigated  by  sprinklers  whether  or  not  the  land 
was  also  irrigated  by  other  means.  Additional  figures  are  given 
for  farms  reporting  land  irrigated  by  sprinklers  only.  Data 
on  sprinkler  irrigation  were  not  obtained  in  the  1954  census. 

Irrigated  Cropland  Harvested. — The  data  for  irrigated  crop- 
land harvested  relate  to  all  irrigated  land  from  which  crops 
were  harvested  in  1959,  regardless  of  the  method  of  irrigation. 
An  instruction  on  the  questionnaire  reminded  enumerators  and 
respondents  to  include  irrigated  land  from  which  hay  was  cut, 
irrigated  land  in  both  bearing  and  nonbearing  fruit  and  nut 
crops,  and  irrigated  land  from  which  volunteer  crops  were 
harvested.  Each  irrigated  acre  was  to  be  reported  only  once, 
regardless  of  how  many  crops  were  harvested  from  it. 

Other  Irrigated  Land. — This  classification  was  obtained  by 
subtraction  of  the  acreage  of  irrigated  cropland  harvested 
from  the  acreage  of  total  land  irrigated.  It  represents  primarily 
irrigated  cropland  not  harvested  and  irrigated  pasture  or 
grazing  land. 

Farms  Irrigated  By  Number  of  Acres  Irrigated. — All  farms  on 
which  any  land  was  irrigated  in  1959  are  classified  according 
to  the  number  of  acres  irrigated  in  county  table  la  for  the  17 
Western  States,  Louisiana,  and  Hawaii.  This  classification  is 
based  on  total  land  irrigated.  Therefore,  It  includes  not  only  the 
irrigated  land  from  which  crops  were  harvested  but  also  all  other 
irrigated  land,  regardless  of  use. 

Land  Irrigated  By  Source  of  Water. — The  agriculture  question- 
naire contained  a  question  as  to  what  proportion  of  irrigated 
water  used  on  the  farm  in  1959  was  obtained  from  ground- 
water, surface-water,  and  irrigation-organization  sources.  Re- 
spondents were  asked  to  report  separately  the  percentage  of 


XXII 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


water  obtained  from  each  source.  The  number  of  acres  that 
were  irrigated  by  water  from  each  source  or  combination  of 
sources  was  calculated  during  office  processing  operations  by 
applying  the  percentages  to  the  total  land  irrigated. 

Ground-water  sources  relate  to  wells  (pumped  or  flowing)  and 
springs ;  surface-water  sources  relate  to  streams,  lakes,  reservoirs, 
and  sewage  and  drainage  ditches.  For  each  of  these  sources, 
only  water  obtained  by  pumps  or  other  works  operated  as  part 
of  the  operator's  own  farm  or  as  part  of  another  single  farm  was 
to  be  included.  Irrigation-organization  sources  relate  to  irriga- 
tion enterprises  organized  to  supply  water  to  a  group  of  farms, 
regardless  of  how  or  where  the  enterprise  obtained  the  water. 
The  irrigation  enterprise  may  be  a  legal  organization  or  a  group 
of  farmers  informally  organized  to  operate  a  supply  ditch  or 
other  works  to  provide  water  for  their  own  farms. 

Land-Use  Practices 

Summary  Information. — The  1959  data  for  land-use  practices 
are  estimates  based  on  reports  obtained  from  only  a  sample  of 
farms.  Comparable  data  are  not  presented  for  1954  because 
questions  about  land-use  practices  were  included  on  the  1954 
questionnaire  for  only  a  limited  number  of  States.  The  various 
land-use  practices  relate  to  methods  for  reducing  soil  erosion, 
either  by  improving  the  soil,  controlling  the  run-off  of  water,  or 
reducing  the  blowing  of  topsoil. 

Cropland  in  Cover  Crops. — The  data  relate  to  land  on  which 
cover  crops  were  turned  under  for  green  manure  in  1959  and 
which  was  then  planted  to  another  crop.  The  entire  acreage  of 
cover  crops  so  used  was  to  be  reported  even  if  the  following  crop 
failed. 

Cropland  Used  for  Grain  or  Row  Crops  Farmed  on  the  Contour. — 
This  item  relates  to  land  on  which  grain  or  row  crops  were 
planted  in  level  rows  around  the  slope  of  a  hill. 

Land  in  Strip-Cropping  Systems  for  Soil-Erosion  Control. — Strip- 
cropping  was  defined  as  the  practice  of  alternating  close-sown 
crops  with  strips  or  bands  of  row  crops  or  of  alternating  either 
close-sown  or  row  crops  with  bands  of  cultivated  fallow  land. 
The  published  data  refer  to  the  total  acreage  of  all  fields  and 
tracts  in  which  strip-cropping  was  practiced  in  1959. 

System  of  Terraces  on  Crop  and  Pasture  Land. — This  item  re- 
lates to  the  acreage  in  ridge-type  or  channel-type  terraces  con- 
structed on  sloping  cropland  and  pastureland. 

Livestock  and  Poultry 

Inventories. — Data  for  livestock  and  poultry  on  farms  relate 
to  the  number  on  hand  at  the  time  of  enumeration.  All  live- 
stock and  poultry,  including  those  being  kept  or  fed  under  con- 
tract, were  to  be  enumerated  on  the  farm  or  ranch  where  they 
were,  regardless  of  who  owned  them.  Livestock  in  transit  from 
one  grazing  area  to  another  or  grazing  in  national  forests,  graz- 
ing districts,  open  range,  or  on  land  used  under  permit  were  to  be 
reported  as  being  on  the  place  where  the  person  who  had  control 
over  them  had  his  headquarters. 

The  time  of  year  at  which  livestock  and  poultry  are  enumerated 
affects  the  data.  Therefore,  the  date  of  enumeration  needs  to 
be  considered  when  totals  for  the  various  censuses  are  compared. 
Both  the  1959  and  the  1954  census  data  represent  fall  inven- 
tories. These  censuses  came  at  a  time  of  large-scale  movement 
of  flocks  and  herds  from  one  range  to  another,  from  ranch  to 
feed  lot,  and  from  farm  or  ranch  to  market. 

The  censuses  of  1920,  1925,  1935,  and  1945  were  taken  as  of 
January  1  and  those  of  1930,  1940,  and  1950,  as  of  April  1.  A 
count  made  in  April  varies  considerably  from  one  made  in  Jan- 
uary. In  most  areas  a  large  number  of  animals  are  born  between 
January  and  April.  A  considerable  number  of  older  animals  die 
or  are  sold  during  the  same  period.    In  the  range  States,  along 


with  the  change  in  season  and  grazing  condition,  sheep  and  cattle 
are  moved  from  one  locality  or  county  to  another.  This  movement 
may  affect  the  comparability  of  data  for  counties  and,  in  some 
cases,  for  States.  The  comparability  of  data  by  age  has  been 
affected  also  by  changes  in  the  questions  from  one  census  to 
another. 

Milk  Cows,  Cows  Milked,  Milk  Produced,  and  Butter. — Data  on 
the  number  of  milk  cows,  cows  milked,  and  milked  produced  relate 
to  the  day  preceding  the  enumeration.  Data  for  butter  churned 
were  obtained  only  for  14  States  and  relate  to  the  calendar  week 
preceding  the  enumeration.  The  data  for  cows  milked  yesterday 
and  milk  produced  yesterday  are  not  given  in  this  volume.  These 
figures  were  obtained  primarily  to  serve  the  needs  of  the  U.S. 
Department  of  Agriculture  in  making  monthly  and  annual  esti- 
mates of  milk  production.  These  figures  can  be  made  available, 
at  a  small  cost,  to  others  who  express  an  interest  in  them. 

Whole  Milk  and  Cream  Sold. — Data  for  whole  milk  and  cream 
sold  relate  to  the  entire  year  1959  and  are  estimates  based  on 
reports  obtained  for  farms  in  the  sample.  All  milk  and  cream 
sold  from  the  farm  (except  quantities  purchased  from  some 
other  place  and  then  resold)  were  to  be  included,  regardless 
of  who  shared  the  receipts.  The  questionnaire  provided  three 
alternative  units  of  measure  for  reporting  the  quantity  of  milk 
sold — pounds  of  milk,  gallons  of  milk,  and  pounds  of  butterfat. 
The  respondent  was  thus  permitted  to  report  quantity  according 
to  the  unit  of  measure  in  which  payment  was  received.  In  the 
State  and  county  tables,  the  data  for  milk  are  given  in  the  unit 
of  measure  most  commonly  used  in  the  State.  Pounds  of  butter- 
fat  were  converted  into  gallons  or  pounds  of  whole  milk  on  the 
basis  of  the  average  butterfat  content  of  milk  as  shown  by  data 
furnished  by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of  the  U.S. 
Department  of  Agriculture. 

Sows  and  Gilts  Farrowing. — In  the  1959  census,  data  were  ob- 
tained for  the  number  of  litters  farrowed  between  December  1, 
1958,  and  June  1,  1959,  and  from  June  1  to  December  1,  1959.  In 
the  1954  census,  data  were  obtained  for  the  sows  and  gilts  that 
farrowed  rather  than  for  the  number  of  litters. 

Sheep,  Lambs,  and  Wool. — In  the  1959  census,  questions  about 
sheep,  lambs,  and  wool  were  asked  in  all  States.  Data  on 
shearings  and  on  amount  of  wool  shorn  were  obtained  for  lambs 
and  sheep  separately.  In  the  1954  census,  sheep  and  lamb  inven- 
tories were  not  obtained  for  Florida,  Georgia,  and  South  Carolina. 

Goats  and  Mohair.— In  1959,  questions  on  goats,  kids,  and  mo- 
hair appeared  on  the  questionnaires  for  the  following  nine  States : 
Arizona,  California,  Missouri,  Nevada,  New  Mexico,  Oklahoma, 
Oregon,  Texas,  and  Utah.  In  1954,  corresponding  data  were  ob- 
tained for  Louisiana,  New  Mexico,  Oklahoma,  Oregon,  Texas, 
Washington,  and  selected  counties  in  Missouri. 

Bees  and  Honey. — No  questions  on  bees  and  honey  were  in- 
cluded on  the  questionnaires  for  either  the  1959  or  the  1954 
census.  In  1959,  however,  enumerators  were  instructed  to  ob- 
tain agriculture  questionnaires  for  places  not  having  agricultural 
operations  if  they  were  engaged  in  beekeeping.  The  number  of 
hives  of  bees  and  the  amount  of  honey  sold  were  to  be  reported 
in  the  "Remarks"  space  of  the  questionnaire.  Data  for  bees 
and  honey  are  not  included  in  this  report. 

Value  of  Livestock  on  Farms.— To  obtain  the  value  of  livestock 
on  farms,  the  number  of  each  class  of  livestock  or  poultry  on  hand 
was  multiplied  by  the  State  average  price  for  1959,  as  furnished 
by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of  the  U.S.  Department  of 
Agriculture.  Comparable  data  for  1954  were  compiled  by  the 
same  method  on  the  basis  of  average  prices  for  that  year. 

Sales  of  Live  Animals. — Data  for  the  number  and  value  of  ani- 
mals sold  alive  in  1959  are  estimates  based  on  reports  for  sample 
farms  only.  Corresponding  data  for  1954  were  obtained  for  all 
farms.    The  dollar  value  of  sales  was  obtained  from  the  farmer 


INTRODUCTION

for  cattle,  calves,  and  horses  and  mules.  Average  value  per  head 
for  other  livestock  sold  was  obtained  from  the  U.S.  Department 
of  Agriculture.  In  the  1959  census,  respondents  were  asked  to 
report  separately  the  number  of  live  animals  already  sold  and  the 
number  estimated  to  be  sold  between  the  time  of  enumeration  and 
the  end  of  the  year.  This  separation  of  reports  for  the  number 
sold  and  to  be  sold  was  designed  to  assure  more  complete  coverage 
of  all  livestock  sales  made  during  the  year.  In  the  1954  census, 
only  totals  for  the  entire  year  were  obtained  though  reference 
was  made  to  animals  to  be  sold  between  enumeration  and  the  end 
of  the  year. 

Sales  of  Poultry  and  Poultry  Products.— For  both  the  1959  and 
the  1954  Censuses,  sales  of  chickens  were  obtained  for  two  groups : 
(1)  broilers  and  (2)  other  chickens.  The  enumeration  of  broiler 
sales  presents  problems  arising  from  the  varied  contractual  ar- 
rangements under  which  broilers  are  produced.  The  question- 
naire contained  an  instruction  to  the  effect  that  all  broilers  grown 
for  others  under  contract  were  to  be  reported  as  sold.  During 
office  processing  operations,  the  data  reported  for  inventories  and 
sales  of  chickens  four  months  old  and  over,  chicken  eggs  sold,  and 
broilers  sold  were  carefully  examined.  Obvious  inconsistencies 
indicating  confusion  between  broilers  and  other  chickens  were 
corrected  on  the  basis  of  estimated  values  and,  for  sample  farms, 
on  the  basis  of  data  reported  for  expenditures  for  feed,  poultry 
and  livestock  purchases,  hired  labor,  etc. 

Questions  relating  to  poultry  other  than  chickens  (and  broilers) 
were  generally  the  same  in  1959  as  in  1954.  In  the  1959  census, 
however,  only  total  numbers  were  obtained  for  turkeys  and  turkey 
fryers  raised  and  for  turkey  hens  kept  for  breeding  whereas  the 
1954  questionnaire  asked  for  a  breakdown  between  light  and  heavy 
breeds.  Also,  for  poultry  other  than  chickens  and  turkeys,  the 
1959  census  obtained  the  number  sold  whereas  the  1954  census 
obtained  the  number  raised. 

Classification  or  Fakms 

Scope  of  Classification. — Data  for  land  in  farms,  and  for  crop- 
land harvested  in  farms  classified  by  size,  by  color  of  operator  and 
by  tenure  of  operator  were  tabulated  for  all  farms.  However, 
most  of  the  detailed  data  by  size  of  farm,  by  color  of  operator,  by 
tenure  of  operator,  by  economic  class,  and  by  type  of  farm  are 
estimates  based  on  farms  in  the  sample.  The  farm  classifications 
by  size  of  farm,  color  of  operator,  tenure  of  operator,  economic 
class  of  farm,  and  type  of  farm  were  made  in  the  processing 
office  on  the  basis  of  data  reported  on  each  questionnaire. 

Farms  by  Size. — Farms  were  classified  by  size  according  to  the 
total  land  area  established  for  each  farm.  The  same  classifica- 
tion was  used  for  all  States.  According  to  definition,  a  farm  is 
essentially  an  operating  unit,  not  an  ownership  tract.  All  land 
operated  by  one  person  or  partnership  represents  one  farm.  In 
the  case  of  a  landlord  who  has  assigned  land  to  croppers  or  other 
tenants,  the  land  assigned  to  each  cropper  or  tenant  is  considered 
a  separate  farm  even  though  the  landlord  may  operate  the  entire 
landholding  as  one  unit  in  respect  to  supervision,  equipment,  rota- 
tion practice,  purchase  of  supplies,  or  sale  of  products.  In  some 
parts  of  the  South,  a  special  Landlord-Tenant  Questionnaire  was 
used  to  assure  an  accurate  enumeration  of  each  unit  within  a 
multiple-unit  operation.  A  change  was  made  in  the  size  classifica- 
tion for  1959,  as  contrasted  with  several  preceding  years,  by  sub- 
dividing the  1,000-acre-and-over  group  and  by  combining  two 
previously  recognized  groups,  viz.,  10  to  29  acres  and  30  to  49 
acres. 

Farms  by  Color  of  Operator.— Farms  were  classified  by  color  of 
operator  into  two  groups,  "white"  and  "nonwhite."  "Nonwhite" 
includes  primarily  Negro  and  Indian  operators  but  also  some  of 
other  racial  origin. 

Enumerators  were  instructed  to  report  the  race  on  the  basis  of 
their  own  observation  whenever  possible  rather  than  by  asking  the 
respondent. 


Farms  by  Tenure  of  Operator. — The  classification  of  farms  by 
tenure  of  operator  was  based  on  data  reported  for  land  owned, 
land  rented  from  others  or  worked  for  others  on  shares,  land 
managed  for  others,  and  land  rented  to  others  or  worked  on  shares 
by  others.  The  same  basis  of  classification  was  used  in  1959 
as  in  1954. 

For  1959,  each  questionnaire  was  coded,  during  the  editing  proc- 
ess, to  indicate  whether  it  represented  a  farm  operated  by  a  full 
owner,  part  owner,  manager,  or  tenant.  The  sample  question- 
naires for  tenants  were  given  a  code  to  indicate  the  kind  of 
tenant. 

The  various  classifications  of  tenure,  as  used  for  the  1959  census, 
are  defined  below : 

a.  Full  Owners  operate  only  land  they  own. 

b.  Part  Owners  operate  land  they  own  and  also  land  rented 
from  others. 

c.  Managers  operate  land  for  others  and  are  paid  a  wage  or 
salary  for  their  services.  Persons  acting  merely  as  care- 
takers or  hired  as  laborers  are  not  classified  as  managers.  If 
a  farm  operator  managed  land  for  others  and  also  operated 
land  on  his  own  account,  the  land  operated  on  his  own  ac- 
count was  considered  as  one  farm  and  the  land  managed  for 
others  as  a  secoud  farm.  If,  however,  he  managed  land  for 
two  or  more  employers,  all  the  managed  land  was  considered 
to  be  one  farm. 

d.  Tenants  rent  from  others  or  work  on  shares  for  others  all 
the  land  they  operate.  They  are  further  classified,  as  de- 
scribed below,  on  the  basis  of  rental  arrangements  in  regard 
to  the  payment  of  cash  rent,  sharing  of  crops,  sharing  of 
livestock  or  livestock  products,  and  the  furnishing  of  work 
power  by  the  landlord. 

(1)  Cash  Tenants  pay  cash  rent,  either  on  a  per-acre  basis  or 
for  the  farm  as  a  whole. 

(2)  Share-Cash  Tenants  pay  part  of  the  rent  in  cash  and  part 
in  a  share  of  the  crops  and/or  of  the  livestock  and  livestock 
products. 

(3)  Crop-Share  Tenants  pay  a  share  of  the  crops  but  not  of  the 
livestock  or  livestock  products. 

(4)  livestock-Share  Tenants  pay  a  share  of  the  livestock  or 
livestock  products.  They  may  or  may  not  also  pay  a  share  of 
the  crops. 

(5)  Croppers  are  tenants  whose  landlords  furnished  all  the 
work  animals  or  tractor  power.  They  usually  work  under 
the  close  supervision  of  the  landowners  or  their  agents,  or 
other  farm  operators.  Also,  the  land  assigned  to  them  is 
often  merely  a  part  of  a  multi-unit  operation.  Croppers  may 
or  may  not  also  pay  cash  rent  or  a  share  of  crops,  livestock, 
or  livestock  products.  Data  for  croppers  are  available  for 
only  16  southern  States  and  Missouri. 

(6)  Other  Tenants  are  those  who  did  not  qualify  for  inclusion 
in  any  of  the  foregoing  subclassifications.  They  may  have 
had  the  use  of  land  rent-free  or  in  return  for  a  fixed  quantity 
of  products,  payment  of  taxes,  maintenance  of  buildings,  etc. 

(7)  Unspecified  Tenants  are  those  for  whom  the  rental  arrange- 
ment was  not  reported. 

The  definition  of  each  subclass  of  tenant  was  essentially  the 
same  for  earlier  censuses  as  for  1959.  In  1945,  however,  the 
enumerator  was  asked  to  determine  the  subclass  of  tenants 
whereas  in  other  censuses  all  classifications  were  made  during 
the  processing  of  questionnaires  on  the  basis  of  the  data 
reported.  The  procedure  used  in  1945  may  have  affected  the 
comparability  of  the  data,  especially  for  cash  tenants  and 
share-cash  tenants. 

Farms  by  Economic  Class. — The  totals  for  farms  by  economic 
class  are  estimates  for  all  farms  made  on  the  basis  of  data  re- 
ported only  for  the  sample  farms.  The  economic  classifications 
represent  groupings  of  farms  that  are  similar  in  characteristics 
and  size  of  operation.  The  economic  classes  were  established  on 
the  basis  of  one  or  more  of  four  factors:  (1)  total  value  of  all 
farm  products  sold,  (2)  number  of  days  the  farm  operator  worked 
off  the  farm,  (3)  the  age  of  the  farm  operator,  and  (4)  the  re- 
lationship of  income  received  by  the  operator  and  members  of  his 
household  from  nonfarm  sources  to  the  value  of  all  farm  products 
sold.  Institutional  farms,  Indian  reservations,  agricultural  ex- 
periment stations,  and  grazing  associations  were  always  classified 
as  "abnormal." 


XXIV 


UNITED  STATES  CENSUS  OF  AGRICULTURE :  1959 


The  total  value  of  farm  products  sold  was  obtained  by  addi- 
tion of  the  reported  or  estimated  values  for  all  products  sold  from 
the  farm.  The  value  of  cattle  and  calves,  horses  and  mules,  dairy 
products,  some  poultry  products,  vegetables,  nursery  and  green- 
house products,  standing  timber,  and  miscellaneous  forest  prod- 
ucts was  obtained  from  the  farm  operator  during  the  enumera- 
tion. The  quantity  sold  was  obtained  during  enumeration  for 
corn,  sorghums,  small  grains,  hay,  small  fruits,  some  of  the  for- 
est products,  chickens  and  chicken  eggs,  hogs,  sheep,  and  goats. 
To  obtain  the  value  of  sales  of  these  products,  the  quantity  sold 
was  multiplied  by  State  average  prices. 

For  each  of  the  other  products,  the  entire  production  was  mul- 
tiplied by  the  State  average  price.  If  the  resulting  value  amount- 
ed to  $100  or  more,  the  entire  quantity  produced  was  considered 
as  sold.  This  procedure  was  followed  only  in  establishing  the 
economic  class  and  the  type  of  farm  but  was  not  used  in  estab- 
lishing the  total  value  of  products  sold  from  the  farm.  (See 
p.  XXV.) 

Farms  were  grouped  into  two  major  categories,  commercial 
farms  and  other  farms,  mainly  on  the  basis  of  total  value  of  prod- 
ucts sold.  The  1959  class  intervals  and  some  of  the  criteria  for 
determination  of  a  given  class  are  different  from  those  used  in 
1954  and  in  1950.  In  general,  for  1959,  all  farms  with  a  value 
of  sales  amounting  to  $2,500  or  more  were  classified  as  commercial. 
Farms  with  a  value  of  sales  of  $50  to  $2,499  were  classified  as  com- 
mercial if  the  farm  operator  was  under  65  years  of  age  and  (1)  he 
did  not  work  off  the  farm  100  or  more  days  during  the  year  and 
(2)  the  income  received  by  the  operator  and  members  of  his 
family  from  nonfarm  sources  was  less  than  the  value  of  all  farm 
products  sold.  The  remaining  farms  with  a  value  of  sales  of  $50 
to  $2,499  and  institutional  farms  and  Indian  reservations  were 
.ncluded  in  one  of  the  groups  of  "other  farms." 

Commercial  farms  were  divided  into  six  economic  classes  on 
the  basis  of  the  total  value  of  all  farm  products  sold,  as 
follows : 

Value  of  Farm 
Class  of  Farm  Products  sold 

I $40,000  and  over 

II $20,000 

III $10,000 

IV $5,000 

V $2,500 

VI* $50 

•Provided  the  farm  operator  was  under  65  years  of  age,  and — 

(1)  he  did  not  work  off  the  farm  100  or  more  days,  and  (2)  the  In- 
come that  he  and  members  of  his  household  received  from  nonfarm 
sources  was  less  than  the  total  value  of  farm  products  sold. 

Other  farms  were  divided  into  three  economic  classes  as 
follows : 

a.  Class  VH,  Part-time. — Farms  with  a  value  of  sales  of  farm 
products  of  $50  to  $2,499  were  classified  as  "part-time"  if 
the  operator  was  under  65  years  of  age  and  he  either  worked 
off  the  farm  100  or  more  days  or  the  income  he  and  members 
of  his  household  received  from  nonfarm  sources  was  greater 
than  the  total  value  of  farm  products  sold. 

b.  Class  VIII,  Part-retirement.— Farms  with  a  value  of  sales 
of  farm  products  of  $50  to  $2,499  were  classified  as  "part- 
retirement"  if  the  farm  operator  was  65  years  old  or  over. 
Many  of  these  are  farms  on  which  the  income  from  nonfarm 
sources  was  greater  than  the  value  of  sales  of  agricultural 
products.  Others  are  residential,  subsistence,  or  marginal 
farms.  In  previous  censuses,  the  age  of  the  farm  operator 
was  not  a  criterion  for  grouping  farms  by  economic  class. 
Since  the  number  of  elderly  people  in  our  population  has 
been  steadily  increasing  during  recent  years,  a  separate 
classification  for  farms  operated  on  a  part-retirement  basis 
was  considered  important  for  an  adequate  analysis  of  the 
agricultural  structure  of  a  county  or  State. 

c.  Class  IX,  Abnormal. — All  institutional  farms  and  Indian 
reservations  were  classified  as  "abnormal,"  regardless  of  the 
value  of  sales.     Institutional  farms  include  those  operated 


to 

$39,999 

to 

$19,999 

to 

$9,999 

to 

$4,999 

to 

$2,499 

by   hospitals,   penitentiaries,   schools,,  grazing   associations, 
government  agencies,  etc. 

Farms  by  Type. — The  data  for  farms  by  type  are  estimates 
based  on  data  tabulated  for  the  farms  in  the  sample.  The 
type  represents  a  description  of  the  major  source  of  income  from 
farm  sales.  To  be  classified  as  a  particular  type,  a  farm  had  to 
have  sales  of  a  particular  product  or  group  of  products  amounting 
in  value  to  50  percent  or  more  of  the  total  value  of  all  farm  prod- 
ucts sold  during  the  year. 

The  types  of  farms,  together  with  the  products  on  which  type 
classification  is  based,  are  as  follows : 


Type   of  Farm 


Cash-grain 


Tobacco 

Cotton 

Other  field-crop. 


Vegetable 

Fruit-and-nut 


Poultry  . 
Dairy  _. 


Livestock  other  than 
dairy  and  poultry 


Livestock  Ranches. 


General- 


Miscellaneous. 


Source  of  Cash  Income 

(Products  with  sales  value  representing 
50%  or  more  of  total  value  of  all  farm 
products  sold) 

Corn,  sorghums,  small  grains,  soybeans 
for  beans,  cowpeas  for  peas,  dry  field 
and  seed  beans  and  peas. 

Tobacco. 

Cotton. 

Peanuts,  potatoes  (Irish  and  sweet), 
sugarcane  for  sugar  or  sirup,  sweet 
sorghums  for  sirup,  broomcorn,  pop- 
corn, sugar  beets,  mint,  hops,  and 
sugar  beet  seed. 

Vegetables. 

Berries,  other  small  fruits,  tree  fruits, 
grapes,  and  nuts. 

Chickens,  chicken  eggs,  turkeys,  and 
other  poultry  products. 

Milk  and  cream.  The  criterion  of  50 
percent  of  total  sales  was  modified  in 
the  case  of  dairy  farms.  A  farm  hav- 
ing value  of  sales  of  dairy  products 
amounting  to  less  than  50  percent  of 
the  total  value  of  farm  products  sold 
was  classified  as  a  dairy  farm,  if — 

(a)  Milk  and  cream  sold  accounted 
for  more  than  30  percent  of  the  total 
value  of  products  sold  and — 

(b)  Milk  cows  represented  50  percent 
or  more  of  total  cows  and — 

(c)  The  value  of  milk  and  cream  sold 
plus  the  value  of  cattle  and  calves 
sold  amounted  to  50  percent  or 
more  of  the  total  value  of  all  farm 
products  sold. 

Cattle,  calves,  hogs,  sheep,  goats,  wool 
and  mohair  except  for  farms  in  the  17 
Western  States,  Louisiana,  and 
Florida  that  qualified  as  livestock 
ranches. 

Farms  in  the  17  Western  States,  Louisi- 
ana, and  Florida  were  classified  as 
livestock  ranches  if  the  sales  of  live- 
stock, wool,  and  mohair  represented 
50  percent  or  more  of  the  total  value 
of  farm  products  sold  and  if  pasture- 
land  or  grazing  land  amounted  to  100 
or  more  acres  and  was  10  or  more 
times  the  acreage  of  cropland  har- 
vested. 

Field  seed  crops,  hay,  silage.  A  farm 
was  classified  as  general  also  if  it  had 
cash  income  from  three  or  more 
sources  and  did  not  meet  the  criteria 
for  any  other  type. 

Nursery  and  greenhouse  products,  forest 
products,  mules,  horses,  colts  and 
ponies.  Also  all  institutional  farms 
and  Indian  reservations. 


INTRODUCTION 


XXV 


The  type  classifications  were  essentially  the  same  for  the  1959 
as  for  the  1954  census  except  that  tobacco  farms  and  livestock 
ranches  were  not  separately  classified  in  1954.  Tobacco  was  in- 
cluded as  one  of  the  crops  used  in  the  classification  of  "other 
field  crop"  farms  in  1954.  The  farms  classified  as  livestock 
ranches  in  1959  would  have  been  classified  as  "livestock  other 
than  dairy  and  poultry"  in  1954  without  regard  to  the  acreage  in 
pasture. 

Value  of  Farm  Products  Sold. — Data  for  the  value  of  farm  prod- 
ucts sold  in  1959  were  obtained  by  enumeration  for  some  prod- 
ucts and  by  estimation  for  others.  The  questionnaire  used  for 
the  1959  census  provided  for  farm  operators  to  report  value  of 
sales  for  the  following  products : 

Vegetables  Miscellaneous  poultry  products 

Nursery  and  greenhouse  prod-  Milk  and  cream 

ucts  Cattle 

Standing  timber  Calves 

Miscellaneous  forest  products  Horses,  mules,  colts,  and  ponies 

For  all  other  agricultural  products,  the  value  of  sales  was  esti- 
mated during  the  office  processing.  The  State  average  prices 
used  for  calculating  the  value  of  farm  products  sold  were  fur- 
nished to  the  Bureau  by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of 
the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture.  One  of  three  following  pro- 
cedures was  used. 

(1)  For  the  products  for  which  data  on  quantities  sold  were 
obtained  during  enumeration,  the  State  average  prices  were  mul- 
tiplied by  the  county  totals  of  the  quantities  reported  as  sold  or 
the  quantities  reported  as  produced  for  sale.  The  following  prod- 
ucts were  covered  by  this  procedure : 

Corn  for  grain  Fence  posts 

Sorghums  for  grain,  seed,  sirup,    Sawlogs  and  veneer  logs 

or  dry  forage  Christmas  trees 

All  small  grains  Chickens  (broilers  and  others) 

Hay  crops  Chicken  eggs 

All  berries  and  small  fruits 1  Hogs  and  pigs 

Firewood  and  f uelwood  Sheep  and  lambs 

Pulpwood  Goats  and  kids 

1  Adjustment  made  for  cranberries  based  on  Cranberry  Payment 
Program. 

(2)  For  most  of  the  agricultural  products  which  are  cus- 
tomarily raised  for  sale,  the  entire  quantity  produced  was 
considered  to  be  sold.  The  State  average  prices  were,  accordingly, 
multiplied  by  the  county  total  of  production.  The  following  crops 
were  covered  by  this  procedure : 


Cotton  Sugarcane  for  sugar 

Popcorn  Tobacco 

Sugar  beets  for  sugar  Wool 

Broomcorn  Mohair 

(3)  For  all  other  crops,  the  State  average  prices  were  mul- 
tiplied by  the  quantities  sold  as  estimated  on  the  basis  of  crop- 
disposition  data  furnished  by  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service, 
data  reported  in  questions  for  "other  crops"  on  the  1959  question- 
naire, or  data  obtained  from  earlier  censuses. 

For  all  tree  fruits,  nuts,  and  grapes,  the  entire  quantity  pro- 
duced was  considered  as  sold,  except  for  apples,  apricots,  sour  and 
sweet  cherries,  peaches,  plums,  prunes,  avocados,  tangerines, 
oranges,  and  grapefruit  in  States  where,  a  portion  of  the  crop 
was  not  harvested  or  was  subjected  to  excess  cullage  as  indicated 
by  data  obtained  from  the  Agricultural  Marketing  Service  of 
the  U.S.  Department  of  Agriculture. 

The  data  for  1959  are  comparable  with  those  for  1954  since 
essentially  the  same  procedures  were  used  in  both  censuses  for 
estimating  quantities  and  values  of  farm  products  sold.  In  1959, 
as  in  1954,  data  for  the  sales  of  farm  products  represent  total 
sales  for  the  entire  farm,  regardless  of  who  shared  the  receipts. 
For  tenant-operated  farms,  the  landlord's  share  of  agricultural 
products  was  considered  as  sold  provided  the  products  were 
moved  off  the  tenant  farm.  All  crops,  livestock,  and  poultry 
raised  under  a  contract  arrangement  were  considered  as  sold 
from  the  farm  where  they  were  raised.  For  institutional  farms, 
all  agricultural  items  produced  on  land  operated  by  the  institu- 
tion and  consumed  by  the  inmates  were  to  be  reported  as  sold. 

All  sales  data  relate  to  one  year's  farm  operations.  Crop  sales 
are  for  crops  harvested  during  the  crop  year,  whether  the  crops 
were  actually  sold  immediately  after  harvest  or  placed  in  storage 
for  later  sale.  Sales  of  livestock  and  livestock  products  relate 
to  the  calendar  year,  regardless  of  when  the  livestock  or  prod- 
ucts were  raised  or  produced.  All  wool  and  mohair  reported 
as  shorn  or  clipped  was  considered  as  sold. 

Enumerators  were  instructed  to  record  gross  values  of  quanti- 
ties sold,  with  no  deductions  for  feed,  seed,  fertilizer,  water,  labor, 
or  marketing  costs.  For  some  products,  however,  net  values  may 
have  been  reported.  In  the  case  of  milk,  particularly,  some  farm 
operators  may  have  reported  the  payments  they  received  as  the 
gross  value  of  sales,  even  though  the  buyer  had  deducted  handling 
and  hauling  charges  before  making  payment.  Adjustments  were 
made  in  the  data  reported  only  in  cases  of  obvious  error.

1Level  1  should  be  used  in  determining  the  sampling  reliability  of  estimated  number  of  farms  and  farms  reporting.  The  level  for  all  other  items  should  be  obtained  from  State 
Table  24.  If  the  estimated  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  constitutes  more  than  75  percent  of  all  farms  in  the  universe,  a  better  approximation  to  the  sampling  reliability 
may  be  obtained  by  multiplying  the  percent  given  in  the  table  as  follows: 

1.  When  the  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  is  75  percent  of  all  farms,  multiply  the  percent  error  by  0.50. 

2.  When  the  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  is  90  percent  of  all  farms,  multiply  the  percent  error  by  0.30. 

3.  When  the  number  of  farms  or  farms  reporting  is  95  percent  of  all  farms,  multiply  the  percent  error  by  0.20.
