Washington: United States Department Of Agriculture. National Agricultural Statistics Service. United States Government printing office, 1940. — 739 p.This volume presents information formerly published (until 1935) in the statistical section of the Yearbook of Agriculture. It brings together what seem from experience to be the most important agricultural statistics of the United States and of the world so far as the agriculture of this country is concerned. Those who need data for years earlier than are here shown may refer to copies of the Yearbook of Agriculture prior to 1936 and to Agricultural Statistics, 1936, 1937, 1938, and 1939. Current statistics comparable with those here presented can be obtained from periodicals and mimeographed reports published by the Department. When the word "Yearbook" alone appears in this volume, it refers to the Yearbook of Agriculture, published by this Department.
