of nearly $4,000, 100000, which

time their population was exactly
one-fifth Of the total. AS a group,
therefore, their average income of

that which is due to agriculture

same in the East, North, Central
States as for the entire country,
about one-sixth. This means that
as group these States are practi-
cally self-supporting. In contrast,
the Eastern States get only one
thirtieth of their income from asri-
culture and must therefore depend
upon food supplies brought from

get about one-third of their income
from agriculture, and must there
