Excerpt from Dairy Farm Survey: Report on One Hundred and Twenty-Four Farms in the Arrow Lakes, Chilliwack, Courtenay, Ladner and Salmon Arm Districts for the Year Ending May 1st, 1921Farmers operate their farms with varying degrees of success. In this report an attempt has been made to determine the factors that make for gain or loss on farms in certain areas within the Province.In order to get the necessary information, a field-man called on each farmer included in the survey and secured detailed records of each farmer's receipts and expenses for one year. These records included, in addition to the business transacted during the year, an inventory of all livestock, equipment, buildings and land as at the beginning and the end of the year covered in the investigation. The year herein reported upon extended from May lst, 1920, to April 3oth, 1921, and thus may be called the crop year of 1920. The records compiled through the co-operation of the farmers and with the aid of feed houses and creameries that were able to give detailed accounts of the feed the farmers bought and the milk the farmers sold, are the data on which this report is based.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
