Kent County Site
Picked For Test
Census Nov. 10th

Kent County, which will be
the site of 1859 Census of
Agriculture field test during the
week of November 10, has an
interesting farm census history
dating back to 1910, a study of
u. S. Census Bureau records
reveals.
The first agricultural census
was taken in Kent County in
1910. The number of horses and
mules in the county totaled A.
745 in that first count. The most
recent farm census, taken in
1854, recorded l,6l2 horses and
mules in Kent County. Replac-
ing these animals are l,409
trucks, 2,855 tractors, and l,695
automobiles reported to be on
Kent County farms in 1854.
A changing factor in Kent
County over the past few years
is the rapid increase of irrigated
land in farms. In 1850 acreage
of irrigated land in the county
stood at 800. BY 1854 such acre
age had expanded to 1894.
The number of farms has also
decreased. In 1850 Kent County
reported 2,169 farms. BY 1854
the number of farms in the
county had dwindled to 1888.
During this period total acreage
in farm land decreased. 1t stood
at 281,798 acres in 1850 and at
264,924 acres in 1854. At the
same time, however, the aver
age size of farms increased in
Kent County from 100 acres to
1877 acres.
Back in 1910 the first farm
census recorded the estimated
value of poultry on Kent Coun-
ty farms at $l6,582. At the last
enumeration in 1854, poultry
and poultry products sold in the
county amounted to $3,805,0l6.
Cattle numbered l7,477 in
1910 and 26,3O9 in 1854. Value
of dairy products in 1910 was
set at $32,360. In 1854 Kent
County dairy products sold tot
aled $2,8l3,2l8.
The first farm census record
ed the number of swine at IT,
O8O in the county. In the 1854
count there were 9,782.
AS for grain in Kent County,
Indian corn was the big crop
back in 1910, totaling 626,835
bushels. Next was oats at 1884,
23l bushels, then wheat at 85,-
342 bushels. The last farm cen
Smyrna times., 1958-10-23

sus shows Kent County corn
harvested for grain totaling L.
673,856 bushels; oats, l92,037
bushels; and wheat, 328,670
bushels.
The first farm census set the
county's potato yield at 68,357
bushels, compared to l,l74,881
bushels in 1854.
For the first time, the 1854
census of agriculture checked on
the number of farms reporting
television sets. In Kent County
they numbered LAS.
The last farm census also
showed there were $50 farms re-
porting home freezers in Kent
County, more than double the
Alt reported in 1850.
About 500 Kent County farms
will be covered in the November
test which is being conducted
