Agriculture, climate and population of the Prairie Provinces of Canada : a statistical atlas showing past development and present conditions / prepared under the direction of W. Burton Hurd and T.W. Grindley. : CS98-1926M/1931E-PDF
"The present study is based on the 1926 Census of the Prairie Provinces, and such supplementary data as are essential to an understanding of the nature and distribution of agricultural settlement in the Canadian West. ... The first part of this survey, therefore, deals in a broad way with the basic physical controls and the extent to which they account for the existing systems of agriculture and the density and distribution of population. The second section traces the changes in farming since the beginning of the century and describes in detail the extent and condition of agricultural land and the distribution of field crops as at the date of the last census. A section is then devoted to a study of live stock and animal products; this in turn being followed by an analysis of farm incomes, farm expenditures and farm values. Another section deals with the size and tenure of farms and the concluding pages describe the distribution, nativity, origin, educational statusand housing facilities of the population. ... The material is presented by means of maps and charts which are supplemented with interpretive comments"--Preface.
