Baker of the bureau of agricultural economics, in cooperation with the department of farm management at . S. C. Be cause of its fertile soils, mild climate, and general reputation as a steady infiltration of new farm families, the bulletin points out. While the future is heavily cloud ed by the present war and uncertain ty of coming conditions, the situation at the time the study was made showed that only about 7 per cent of the present farm ownerships in the county are sufficiently large to per mit subdivision into two or more ade quate sized units for full-time farm ing.
