This report is to show the regional difference in the deveplopment of the *Chinese citron cultivation as commercial crops and in the decrease in the farm population under the iuflunce of capitalism economy, in the Northern area of Yamaguchi Prefecture. The results are as follows: The regions under the Chinese citron cultivation may be divided into three areas: (1) The center area under the Chinese citron cultivation (Hagi, Tsubaki, Chinto, Ooi, Sanmi, Yamada) (2) The circumference area around the center area (Nako, Misumi) (3) The out area around the circumference area (Utago, Susa, Esaki. Senzaki, Fukawa, Heki, Yuya, Utsuga, Mukatsuku, Kyowa, Oshima, Mishima) In order to give the work to samurais who lost their fixed income which was granted by the lord, the Chinese citron began to be cultivated in Hagi one hundred years ago. Before the World War I the Chinese citron cultivation spread around Hagi. The center area (1) is the most developed one under the Chinese citron cultivation. The less developed area is the out one around the circumference area (3). Decrease in the farm population in the Northern area of Yamaguchi Prefecture is in proportion to cultivation in the less developed area. Few peasants in the center area under the Chinese citron cultivation move into other industrial cities. The Chinese citron cultivation is more profitable than rice cultivation. This is an important reason why peasants in the Northern area depend on this commercial crops cultivation. But it is not satisfactory that peasants depend only on the Chinese citron cultivation. Because young peasants (especially in the lower class), farmer succesors, are continually leaving their own villages in order to earn their better living. Therefore in future, it will be desirable that other commercial crops cultivation and livestock farming (such as pig-raising, chicken-raising, cow-raising) should be introduced into this area.
