The Cost OF Raising Corn.

A farmer in Webster parish this
year raised los bushels and % lbs
OF corn on one acre, and the cost of
fertilizer and labor is computed at
25c per bushel- Arcadia Advance.
We can beat that. Mr.. T. F. Por-
ter, of this parish, living on Spans
ish lake, raised and gathered 104
bushel of corn per acre, cost not
over 73c per bushel. Bro. Drew,
how is that for high? Robeline
Reporter.
We understand that an acre of
corn can be planted, cultivated and
gathered in this country at an av-.
erage cost of six dollars. If the
land brings 30 bushels, which is a
fair average, the corn is made at a
cost of Zoe per bushel; if it brings
SO bushels it costs about 10c per
bushel to raise it, and SO on, the
cost of production decreasing in
proportion to the yield. On such
lands as we have along Red river
an average of sixty bushels to the
acre can be maintained if the soil
was to receive half the care and |
attention bestowed upon the farm
1
by northern and western men. It.
is altogether too expensive to raise
corn at cost of 25c per bushel. if |
one expects to make money at it in !
this region, and we are disposed to |
think there is some error in Bro. |

for cultivating one acre Of corn, I'M |

Ak, GRANT PARISH, La. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 20 1885,


This issue of the CHRONICLE in
augurates the tenth volume of the
paper under its present manage
ment. A youngster without expe-
rience, little more than nine years
ago, we dotted our hat to the good
people of Grant parish, and assured
them that we had come to stay In
their midst, and with their assist
ance would endeavor to give them
as interesting parish paper as it
was possible for us to get up with
our limited ability and the Difficult
ties in the way. By a fair amount
of industry and some fortunate In
cidents we have been enabled to
pull through the "hard times of
past years, and although not estab-
lished yet upon as firm basis as
we would have it, still the CHRoNI-
Gle is esteemed and recognized at
home and abroad as a permanent
institution of Grant parish. We
take pride in the success our en-
deavors have met thus far, and will
labor to retain the confidence and
respect of our patrons by a fear
less and conscientious discharge Of /
duty in the future, endeayoring at
all times to be true and fair in con-
duct and comment
In concluding we would remind
our friends that running news
paper is, like running a sawmill, an
expensive business, and it is hard |
to tell which will sink money the
fastest when funds fail to come in
regularly to meet running expen-
ses. The sawmill, however, has a
decided advantage in being able to !
shut down in dull times and thus
save expenses, while the newspaper
has to grind ON, money or not, or
else quit and throw up the sponge
for good. It has been matter Of
no money with us for the past two
years, and the outlook is anything
but bright at present. We are in
rolved to the amount of several
hundred dollars, and although our
outstanding accounts win overpay
'ur Indebtedness, still it profits us
lothing if we have to be sold out
# house and home to satisfy our
'reditors. We trust every one who
yves us dollar viii consider it a ,
lebt of honor and settle immedi-
'tely, and especially that those who
ave had the use of our money for
year or two will now step up and (,
