Part-Time Farming
A part-time farmer lives with
i his iamily on a small farm but
| hi- gets a big part of his income
from sources other than his farm.
Many people who live in the
country but woik full time m the
city have a garden or keep some
chickens. These people really are
imol residents rather than part-
time farmers. But the line between
the two is not sharp.
In 1950. this country had about
two-thirds of a million "pm t-ume '
j farmers. Another million “rcsiden-
i rial" farmers oid a little farming
j for income. Together, these two
j groups occupied a thir of all
I farms counted by the Census in
! 1950
Before you decide to become a
part-time farmer, work out your
l r.v v answers ro the following oucs-
