"A Michigan Farmers Account with . Ten

We have asked our readers more than

Of them have kept account with their
corn fields and are not prepared to give
the figures necessary to show the net
expense of cultivation, gathering, ETC.
This is quite probable, but it is more
important that the subject be dis
cussed and all the facts brought
ont that bear upon it. Corn is
king among the crops of most of our
farms, and farmers ought to know as
nearly as possible what profit there is
in growingit. OF course the question
of profit can not be settled indefinitely,
for it depends on many circumstances
over which farmers have no control as
foreign demand, drought, rainy sea-
sons, ETC., influencing the price; but
the items of cost are nearly the same
one year with another, and may be sci
down with considerable exactness
The cost of the crop being known, the
profit it gives at any given selling price
is also known.
A correspondent of the Michigan
Farmer, who is one of that rare clas'
of farmers who keep an account book

ten acres of corn. Some of the item

MINNEToNKA YACHT CLUB.
First Race OF the Championship
Series.


This afternoon the Miunetonka Yacht
club holds the first cup and champion
ship race of the season. More entries
than usual are expected because of the
cup, and the fact is counted upon to
bring out several new boats which have
not yet entered any of the events.
There are three of the cup races during
the season, and the priZes-a cup for
each Of the five classes-are awarded to
the winner of two out of the three
events. The race today is the one
which should have been sailed the
Fourth OF July morning, but which was
not on account of the failure of the
breeze to appear.
Interest in the tennis tournament to
be held the third week of this month on
Hotel ST. Louis courts continues to
grow. Belden, the winner of last years
tourney, is expected to 20 to Chicago
next week to play in the Ravenswood
club and Western association tourna-
ments, and chances are that he will
bring back number of the Windy City
experts with him in addition to several
prizes his admirers are looking to see
him win. Entries for the tournament
are scarcely yet being made, hut indi.
cations point to a larger number than
ever known before.
1t is now announced that the coming
regatta of the Minnesota and Winnipeg
Rowing association will probably be
held at Minnetonka instead of at Winni-
peg. 1t was known some time ago that
all attempt to get the event was being
made, and with good chances of sue
cess; but nothing was said authorita-
lively. As the case now stands, Man.
ager Holcombe, of the Lafayette. will
be disappointed man if the regatta
does not come to Minnetonka. and those
who know say that there is little chance
of his experiencing any such emotion.
The date of the regatta will probably
be the same as that fixed for it to be
held at Winnipeg.

constable, fearing he would lose his
prisoner, handcutfed him. The Grim
