Farm Census Sent
Questionnaires far the 1959 Census of Agriculture are now in the mail and will be in the hands of local farmers within a few days, it was announced today by Fidd Director John G. Gibson of the Census Bureau’s regional office at Philadelphia. The farm census guestionnai res are being ma^ed from Chicago, Illinois with the distribution timed so that the report forms will reach farmers about a week ahead of the date when census takers will begin the Ifield canvass. The advance mailing is for the purpose of giving farm operators time to consult their records before filling in the answers required by the questionnaires and getting them ready for the census takers to pick up. This procedure is designed to insure greater accuracy of reporting and to save time both for the farmer and the census taker when the latter calls at the farm.
The 1959 Census of Agriculture questionnaire is designed to provide information on the number and size of farms, acreage and harvest of crops, livestock production and inventories, selected farm facilities and equipment, selected farm expenditures, farm values, and mortgage debt. On the average, each farmer is asked about 100 questions many which can be answered by simply checking “yes” or “no.”
