COST OF WHEAT GROWING MUCHOF LAST YEAR'S CROP GROWN I AT A *LOSS - The iessone That Low Prices -Teach ;tiro ,* Thoroughnesie ti igh Culture, Rotation and Sustained Fertility—Slipshod Bus. bandry Never Pays. elf former statements of ‘vheat growers are correct, much of the list crop was -grown nt a positive loss. The export price for the last fiaCtil year was a frac tem less than eighty cents, the average farm price only sixty-two cents, while the average price in Nebraska was Wily fifty cents, in South Dakota fifty-one, North Dakota fifty-two at the nearest, railway delivery, and at points remote front market scarcely forty or forty-five cents. It is not lone since the growers in these districts deglared that the crop would not pay the cost of cultivation at less than sixty cents. As the yield of this region was not much more than twelve bushels per acre' the gross pro- ceeds were only aboutsix dollen; per acre.- What sort of cultivation would this Pay for, defray the expense of threshing mid delivery, and meet the in- terest on investment, to" say nothing of profit? I will not here go into the de- tails of cost,, which vary ,so tbe. condition of the soil; meth- ods of culture, efficiency- of teams, the implements used, and energy of nianagement. If there are soils and treatment that give sixteen or more bushels, the compensation is greater, and probably the profit; bus for the fields that yielp only six to ten busliels, it is difficult to see how a loss could be avoided. Such prices'with the deterio- ration of soil resulting from contiuuous _cropping, in disregard of rotation, must result in ult imate degradation of fertil- ity and value. - Official investigation, by state author- ity, has been made of the cost of wheat - growing in Illinois, and comparisons made with the value of the crop. In some years a profit is declared, in others a loss. The cost, as reported, varies somewhat from year to year ; rarely less than ten dollars per acre, often con- siderably mare. The difference between New York and Dakota is not one of rate of wages, but of ainoutitiof labor. More cultivation is given, and the larger cost sometimes secures the better margin of profit. Further east the cost is still greater, the yield quite as good, and the profit possibly as large, from higher prices of grain and the value of the straw-. In New England wheat may not be a profitable crop, and it is little grown in competition with the west, but the yields are generally- greater per acre than in the best wheat -growing regions of the prairies, because of the better cultivation and care of the crop. .In Great Britain, where land is held at several hundred dollars per acre, *heat is still grown, though not so ex- tensively as formerly. It seems in- , credible that rent and tithes to au amount greater than the gross income of a Dakota wheat field could be paid by an English grower, and that other expenses stiould'swell the cost of culti- vation to an equivalent of thirty dollars per acre, and still making a profit while selling the crop at eighty-five cents per bushel. Yet 1 have such a katement from credible authority. The cultiva- tion included two three -horse draggings, drilling, harrowing twice. and rolling in spring; cutting, carrying, tlireshing, winnowing and marketing were sub- sequent labors. The yield was forty busoels, price twenty-eight shillines ($1) per quarter of eight bushels, and the straw. oil*, ton, ten -hundred weight, brought twp pounds ($8) per aere. The straw alone=brought about as ifincli as the entire crop is worth in Illinois. The lesson that, these facts . teach are thoroughness, high culture, rotation and sustained fertility. Slipshod husbandry never pays. Primitive -methods are un- profitable. Makeshifts and temporary expedients may secure a small present profit at the expense of loss of ferti?ity. The exclusive wheat' belt is receding. It is well that it is. Leng since iniscel- laueous agriculture and horticulture took the place of exclusive wneat In Western New York. Twenty-five years ago one could scarcely find butter enough in Eastern Minnesota to grease a griddle, while the autumn nights were lighted with bonfires of thousands of tous of wheat straw, where now diversified pro- duction and plenty rule. Now there are counties in Southern Dakota where such a change has already been effected. Peelia.ps low prices will prove a Godsend to western aariculture, by driving ex- clpsi've. wheat culture ont of existence. Let wheat have a place in rotation, with twenty to thirty bushels per acre as a yield, but put labor to a better Use titan swelling a surplus product to the depres- sion of prices. There is no -need of growing wheat- at a loss, where other products are derna,nded at fair prices, and sit is itemise to persist in competing with helf-price labor in Russia and t few cents per day competition of India. It is a perversity that nothing but hard dines can cure. There is a conservatism that resents advice to quit unprofitable culture, as impertinent interference with one's right to do a. foolish thing,- If anything will cure the wheat cruets, the present prices ought to suflice.—Aineri- , can Agriculturist.

COST OF WHEAT GROWING MUCHOF LAST YEAR'S CROP GROWN I AT A *LOSS - The iessone That Low Prices -Teach ;tiro ,* Thoroughnesie ti igh Culture, Rotation and Sustained Fertility—Slipshod Bus. bandry Never Pays. elf former statements of ‘vheat growers are correct, much of the list crop was -grown nt a positive loss. The export price for the last fiaCtil year was a frac tem less than eighty cents, the average farm price only sixty-two cents, while the average price in Nebraska was Wily fifty cents, in South Dakota fifty-one, North Dakota fifty-two at the nearest, railway delivery, and at points remote front market scarcely forty or forty-five cents. It is not lone since the growers in these districts deglared that the crop would not pay the cost of cultivation at less than sixty cents. As the yield of this region was not much more than twelve bushels per acre' the gross pro- ceeds were only aboutsix dollen; per acre.- What sort of cultivation would this Pay for, defray the expense of threshing mid delivery, and meet the in- terest on investment, to" say nothing of profit? I will not here go into the de- tails of cost,, which vary ,so tbe. condition of the soil; meth- ods of culture, efficiency- of teams, the implements used, and energy of nianagement. If there are soils and treatment that give sixteen or more bushels, the compensation is greater, and probably the profit; bus for the fields that yielp only six to ten busliels, it is difficult to see how a loss could be avoided. Such prices'with the deterio- ration of soil resulting from contiuuous _cropping, in disregard of rotation, must result in ult imate degradation of fertil- ity and value. - Official investigation, by state author- ity, has been made of the cost of wheat - growing in Illinois, and comparisons made with the value of the crop. In some years a profit is declared, in others a loss. The cost, as reported, varies somewhat from year to year ; rarely less than ten dollars per acre, often con- siderably mare. The difference between New York and Dakota is not one of rate of wages, but of ainoutitiof labor. More cultivation is given, and the larger cost sometimes secures the better margin of profit. Further east the cost is still greater, the yield quite as good, and the profit possibly as large, from higher prices of grain and the value of the straw-. In New England wheat may not be a profitable crop, and it is little grown in competition with the west, but the yields are generally- greater per acre than in the best wheat -growing regions of the prairies, because of the better cultivation and care of the crop. .In Great Britain, where land is held at several hundred dollars per acre, *heat is still grown, though not so ex- tensively as formerly. It seems in- , credible that rent and tithes to au amount greater than the gross income of a Dakota wheat field could be paid by an English grower, and that other expenses stiould'swell the cost of culti- vation to an equivalent of thirty dollars per acre, and still making a profit while selling the crop at eighty-five cents per bushel. Yet 1 have such a katement from credible authority. The cultiva- tion included two three -horse draggings, drilling, harrowing twice. and rolling in spring; cutting, carrying, tlireshing, winnowing and marketing were sub- sequent labors. The yield was forty busoels, price twenty-eight shillines ($1) per quarter of eight bushels, and the straw. oil*, ton, ten -hundred weight, brought twp pounds ($8) per aere. The straw alone=brought about as ifincli as the entire crop is worth in Illinois. The lesson that, these facts . teach are thoroughness, high culture, rotation and sustained fertility. Slipshod husbandry never pays. Primitive -methods are un- profitable. Makeshifts and temporary expedients may secure a small present profit at the expense of loss of ferti?ity. The exclusive wheat' belt is receding. It is well that it is. Leng since iniscel- laueous agriculture and horticulture took the place of exclusive wneat In Western New York. Twenty-five years ago one could scarcely find butter enough in Eastern Minnesota to grease a griddle, while the autumn nights were lighted with bonfires of thousands of tous of wheat straw, where now diversified pro- duction and plenty rule. Now there are counties in Southern Dakota where such a change has already been effected. Peelia.ps low prices will prove a Godsend to western aariculture, by driving ex- clpsi've. wheat culture ont of existence. Let wheat have a place in rotation, with twenty to thirty bushels per acre as a yield, but put labor to a better Use titan swelling a surplus product to the depres- sion of prices. There is no -need of growing wheat- at a loss, where other products are derna,nded at fair prices, and sit is itemise to persist in competing with helf-price labor in Russia and t few cents per day competition of India. It is a perversity that nothing but hard dines can cure. There is a conservatism that resents advice to quit unprofitable culture, as impertinent interference with one's right to do a. foolish thing,- If anything will cure the wheat cruets, the present prices ought to suflice.—Aineri- , can Agriculturist. The7,*111 Probably Come Into General Use Soon. Two examples of aluminium-1min,- yachts are at present to,, be seen i French waters, says -The London Engi- neer. One is the 10 ton yacht Vendele; essa, launched last month from the stocks of the Societe de Chantiers de la Loire, and now in course of. being fittee - out for ,hext season. The other is a 33-foot.sailing boat, now on exhibition on the Seine. The former craft has been built for the well-known Frence- yachtsman, Comte de Chabannes, La froin the designs of M.- V. Griee- loux. It is Computed that if this vessel. had been constructed of steel frame and wood planking, like other boats of- her class, her hull would have weighed some 4 tons 5 cwt., but in aluminium the weight is ode' some 2 tons 6 cwt. The other craft referred to is- named the Jules Dayoust, and with it Lieutenant liourst intends to set out on a survey expedition on the Niger.
