H. Voskuil The following table is a report of agricultural limestone marketed in each county in Illinois in 1931 and 1932. Detailed 1932 statistics for each county were received from producers within the State and from those in Indiana, Iowa, Wisconsin, and Missouri who ship agricultural limestone into Illinois. A few producers failed to submit reports on distribution of agricultural limestone and their production, as reported on the United States Bureau of Mines cooperative questionnaire, was allocated among the counties in which they produce and in neighboring counties.
