Cost of Raising Corn,

A few weeks ago, the 0range-Judd
Farmer published an article showing
that corn can be produced at 6 cents
bushel. Mr.. G. W. Waters, in the Jour-
nal OF Agriculture, says the estimates Of
that paper are "immeasurably low and
wholly misleading so far as the cost
Of the three items OF removing stalks,
plowing, narrowing and planting are
concerned. For instance the estimates
for removing stalks: In the first place
it is not good farm practice to remove
the stalks unless they are cut at the
proper time for feed in which case their
removal would not come in as an item
of cost in the preparation for the sue
ceeding crop. But the estimate given
.031 cents per acre-would give man
and twO-horse team about 81 cents
day for the work Of cutting the stalks
with cutter or for raking and burning.
"Plowing, narrowing and planting are
all three grouped and put at $40 cents
per acre Let us take each separately,
and see how much time would be re-
quired for man and team Of two horses
10 do one acre. In plowing, two and
quarter acres a day is fully up to the
average for a two-horse outfit, but make
it two and half acres. This makes two
fiFths Of day per acre. In preparing
ground for, corn it should receive two
harrowings. Fifteen acres day is more
than the average amount that may be
gone over with a two-hOrse team; but
say team does that much and we have
two-ffteenths of day per acre. In
planting twelve acres a day is good
work with a check-rower, hence one
twelfth Of day per acre would be re-
quired to plant. Add together two-fifths,
two-ffteenths and one-twelfth and we
have thirty-seven sixtieths of day for
0.549, or SO cents day.
Take the next item, cultivation. There
is is wider range as to amount of work
done in this than in the preparation.
The average amount should not be less
than two harrowings and three plow-
ings. Fourteen acres a day for harrow
ing, and seven acres day for cultivation
would give four-sevenths of day per
acre, which, at 0.559, would be 81 cents
per day for man and team. According to
the above estimates, the number of days
actual time required to raise one acre
OF corn would be one hundred and thirty
one four hundred and twentieths, which,
at the rate given by o. J. Farmer, would
pay the farmer for one man and team
Just Sc cents day, all told.
"The estimates for gathering and crib
bing are about right; 21s cents per
bushel being the average price paid in
Missouri"
