Balance in favor of crop

balance IN faVor OF crOp........ 1855 90
Now, the expense of breaking, by right
should not be charged to the first crop, for il
is permanent value, added to the value of
the land, and should be calculated as capital:
50 acres broken on farm of 100, adds fully 81
an acre to the value of the property.
But in the above calculation, we have not
alone charged the first crop with the breaking
expenses, but also with cash price of every dol,
lars worth of labor expended, until the wheat
is in the railroad elevator, and The owner has
nothing more to do, unless to receive the money
for it; and yet there is a clear profit over all
expenses of $685..
In making these calculations, it is necessary
toput a certain value on the wheat per bushei.
and to allo v for a certain amount of bushels
to the acre. but it will be obvious to any reader
that in both these important items there are
continual variations. The calculations we
now give appeared in the edition of our
pamphlet for 1877, and were based, in a meas
ure, on our fine wheat crop for that year. The
crop of 1S78 as we have already stated. fell
short Of 1877, and we were basing our estimate
on it we should calculate wheat second grade
at IS cents per bushel, but the crop of 1879
may surpass the crop Of 1877; taking the aver
age of many years crops and prices, our cal.
oulations are as near correct as can be made.
