The 1920 census valued SC farm livestock at 91 518 155 dollars with per farm value about 475 and per acre 7 36, led by mules 44 499 036 and swine 10 710 642. By 1925 values fell sharply due to inflation and demand, with mules and horses down and cattle and swine also reduced, reflecting broader agricultural shifts and tenancy issues.
