276 FLORIDA GEOLOGICAL SURVEY-I3TH ANNUAL REPORT

or other unit is the same in each county as it is in the whole State. The federal census is also unsatisfactory in that it lumps together the two varieties of cotton and many kinds of vegetables, which are important in Florida, but that at least simplifies the table. The reasons for not using the State census figures for crop value percentages have been given elsewhere.
 The percentages in this table are given to the nearest tenth, so that those below .05% are represented by zero, which does not necessarily mean that the crop in question is not raised in that region at all. Crops that do not constitute as much as I % in any of the regions treated are omitted. The highest figure in each line is
printed in heavy type, as usual, but the lowest is in many cases indeterminate. Some of the columns add up more than ioo% and
some considerably less, doubtless because of great variations in the value per acre of different vegetables, which are not separated by the census.

 Average Yields

 The average yield per acre of the leading crops in 1909, which is readily ascertained from the census reports, except for vegetables and orchard fruits, is given by regions in the next table, except that in a region where a given crop is relatively insignificant
