That body, some time ago gave this county a rating among the best in the land as far as per capita income and living standards were concerned. Now it gives further proof. Each farmer in Sherman county controls more dollars in his farm than those of any other county in the state that is reported to date. Twenty five thousand dollars per farm is higher than any other by several thousand. We are third in tillable acres in the state although being among the smaller counties in actual size. Within the boundaries of this county are less than one percent of the total acres of the state, but we have 5.7 percent of the tilled acres here or about one seventeenth. All of which tends toward the conclusion that while we may not support as many people as other counties we support them in better style.
