Part I includes the fruit, vegetable and nut crops of the state. Part II will include the crops other than fruits, vegetables and nuts. Part III will include livestock and livestock products. Part IV will include miscellaneous items, such as irrigation, land, farm property, labor, Delhi and Durham state land settlements, etc. Part V, which is the present volume, is a Guide to Some Unofficial Sources of California Agricultural Statistics and was compiled, under the direction of Mrs. M.
