How Many of Us Are Farmers Today One third of our population? One fourth?—One sixth? Answer: One sixtü A total of 26 million perrons on American farms feed themselves and the other 116 million of us, in addi« tion to millions abroad. It wasn't always this way.

Rut since then improved equipment and methods have enabled each farmer to produce more and thus release more and more workers to produce other raw materials, machinery and services.
