But he who has knowledge looks over the

COST OF RAISING WHEAT.

Mr.. VIM. n. Gibson, an enterprsing
young farmer in one of the best wheat
growing neighborhoods in Madison
county, ILL.,, in a recent address before
the Farmers Club Association, in that
county, made the following interesting
statement: "The average price for
wheat, corn, and hay, for twenty-five
years in ST., Louis has been for wheat,
SIPS; corn, 60 cents; and for hay,
$l9.S6 per ton" In making an esti-
mate on the profits of wheat culture, he
estimated land at $50 per acre, of which
the average yield of wheat was Is bus,
corn As, oats 40, and of hay IA tons
10 the acre. Interest per cent or
$500 per acre taxes about so cents
per acre; interest on wear and tear of
machinery, 20 per cent on first cost,
which is about 10 cents per acre for
reaper and mower, 40 cents for drill,
and cents per acre for the pillow, &c.

Cultivation Of Apple Orchards.
From the Southern Planter and Farmer

From the Southern Planter and Farmer.
Whether or not orchards should be
regularly cultivated is question which
has frequently been very thoroughly
discussed in the horticultural and agri-
cultural journals of the country. Yet,
if we are to judge from the frequent
reference to it, both pro and con, in
those papers, it is yet unsettled. To
US it seems that circumstances alone
must decide the necessity for cultiva-
ton or otherwise. In almost any soil
it is far best to give newly-set trees a
few years. liberal cultivation. But
after they are we'll established and be-
gin to bear, our own preference is to
sow apple orchards down in grass, to
be grazed by small stock, such as sheep
and hogs, and if not naturally rich the
land should receive an occasional dress
ing of manure. For this purpose barn
yard manure is good, or -four of bone,
ashes or lime may be used. After the
land has been left in grass or unplowed
for a few years, we believe it decidedly
injudicious to pillow at all +; but should
it be necessary to pillow, the burrows
should be very shallow. The reason
for this that the surface being undis-
turbed, the rootlets, which are the
mouths through which the tree feeds,
approach very near the surface, and
will be destroyed by the pillow, and the
growth of the tree checked for some
years Any one who will observe the
large and healthy growth of apple
trees standing in the close sods that
grow around old dwellings where the
pillow has not probably disturbed the
surface in half a century, must become
convert to the grass system, as it is
called, provided always that the land is
enriched as the door yards invariably
are. We do not advocate the grass
system for any trees except the apple
Peach and pear trees do far better by
being regularly cultivated, and unless
the land is made rich and constantly
supplied with manure of some kind, we
do not think it best for apples. If the
trees are planted as much as thirty feet
apart, cultivation may be continued for
eight or ten years after planting, care
being taken to regularly decrease the
width of the cultivated strip between
the rows. The above is the result OF
twenty years. experience and observa,
ton.

Giles, Of South Woodstock, Ct, writes
in regard to Ayrshire and Jersey cows,
as follows: "You ask my opinion,
which is the best for the dairy, JERSEYS
or Ayrshires and as far as my opinion
goes, and l have had almost every
known breed of bovines, if your object
is making butter, the Jersey COW sur
passes all other breeds, producing, as
they do, full l-3 more of the most deli
cious orange-colored butter, command
ing in market from l3 to Is cents a lb.
over common butter If fer milk for
market, l prefer the Ayrshires, as they
give, on the average, nearly double the
quantity of milk" This is the usual
opinion of these two breeds of cattle.

Or, 993 cents per bushel.

This estimate undoubtedly approx
mates very closely to the actual cost of
the production of wheat in the older
settled sections of the country. Esti-
mates on raw prairie or the second year
from the sod might show still more
profitable result. He says it must be
borne in mind that the above figures
provide for the payment of taxes, and
fair interest on money invested, so that
what is obtained in price above the cost
is actual profit. We shall be pleased
to have our readers initiate the above
example in estimating the actual cost
of production. To this it would be
well to add the yearly increase in the
market value of the land
