¢ The acreages of the different kinds of small fruit differ from those 
published in the Agricultural Statistics, 1925, and given on page 38 of this 
Report, owing to the areas of mixed small fruit being allotted to the 
different varieties. 
+ The acreage of orchards under which small fruit was being grown 
(31,444 acres) is included both in the orchard acreage and the small fruit 
areas. The total acreage of fruit in 1925 was 274,989 acres. 
{ The production of other kinds of orchard fruit (chiefly nuts) was not 
ostimated.
