There does not appear to be content on page 3 of the survey in the original item; that page (which has been scanned) is completely blank and the page numbering skips from 2 to 4 on the surrounding pages.This 1973 general socio-economic survey of 509 respondents focused on social aspects of the northeastern segment of Carlton County. Only a few questions dealt with natural resources or water resources. 1% (n = 5) reported farming full-time, and 7% (n = 33) were part-time farmers. While a few recreational questions were posed, none were specific to water. A question asked "Please list three things you think this community needs most." 19 respondents replied "Swimming (mostly outdoor)"and 18 replied "Water supply." The study concludes that "Environmental preservation and pollution control is obviously important to many as was their expressed concern about an adequate and ensured water supply."enTaking Stock - Social ConstructsTaking Stock - Topical CategoriesFarmersFarmingCarlton County, MinnesotaCommunity surveysReport
