N OTE.—The data for 2 farms were excluded from this table because the sugar-beet crop on both farms 
was a total failure. 
Tables 23 to 40, inclusive, together with the accompanying charts, 
give the information concerning the distribution of costs in the various 
States where the cost study was made.
