proof was given out by an authority so reliable as the
United States Department of Commerce. 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. Residents have always
known it was a good county but it is pleasant to have it
told to us again with figures to prove it.
