Abstract
Few people realize today that milk is by far the most important agricultural product in the United States, furnishing as it does one fourth of the total farm income. In any normal and typical year, such as 1936, the value of wheat and cotton, added together, fall far short of the cost of the milk crop. If we take the eight leading crops in 1936 and rank them in the order of their cash value, we see that wheat is eighth and hay is crowding cotton for fourth place. Here is the list and to avoid astronomical figures, the author has given the per capita value at the farm for each of the eight leading crops for the year 1936.
