While corn is an important item, they all carry a substantial head of stock. Out of the 39,600 farms in this group 12,000 are between 20 and 50 acres, and 10,000 from 50 to 100 acres. Of the remainder, the size-group from 150 to 300 acres has the largest number and the largest acreage of any. NUMBER AND ACREAGE OF HOLDINGS ABOVE 20 ACRES CONSISTING MAINLY OF ARABLE LAND.
