Typewritten analyses of several upstate New York farm families and how they make decisions, written by Gould Colman together with colleagues including Laurie Konigsburg, Leslie Puryear, Dalva E. Hedlund, Alan D. Berkowitz, Jean Lowe, Sarah Elbert, Joyce H. Finch, and Mary Arluck. Most of the reports were contributions to "How farm families make decisions," an interdisciplinary project of Cornell University's Departments of Rural Sociology, Agricultural Economics, and Manuscripts and University Archives. Those reports were issued in the Cornell rural sociology bulletin series.
