col,NTssaG ssFHE COST. j

Why Farmers sskO1la Keep Al A.
counte Of Their Operations.
Il has always been our rule to keep IN
account with every crop grown on the
farm: In doing this we charge the crop
with the rent and the work put upon it
in preparing the land ready for the seed,
the value Of the seed. the labor Of seed
ing or planting, the labor Of cultivating,
il.cnltivat ton Is necessary, and the work
of harvesting. This makes the cost Of
the, crop. The difference between what
il cost to get ready for market, and its
value when ready, shows the profit Or
loss OF growing. In doing this, prices
will vary greatly in different localities.
Land here will usually rent for two dol
lars per acre cash, when cash rent il
paid. and we charge this amount as rent
against scrop. OF course, this will be
more III some localities and may be less
in others; but it always seems fair to
charge the price current In the neigh
borhood where the crop is raised. The
same with the labor; prices paid for
farm work. with and without teams.
should rule in counting the cost of grow
ing crop. This, too, win vary consid-
erably in different localities. The prices
of harvesting, as well Of seed, will also
vary. Then there will be difference in
different situations as to the value or
price when ready for market. Local
conditions often affect the market in
different places, and the price in the
neighborhood should be made the basis
in determining the value of crop when
ready to sell, so that the cost Of growing
and marketing will vary considerably.
Then, too, the machinery used will make
some difference in the cost SO far as the
expense Of labor is concerned: The yield
secured will. of course, vary the cost per
:bushel. The expense Of securing a yield
of 60 bushels of corn per acre on ten
acres Of land is very little if any more
than the cost of 20 bushels per acre.
Ii it costs four dollars per acre to rent,
plant, cultivate and harvest ten acres OF
corn and the yield is 200 bushels, the
crn has cost 20 cents per bushel; but
if the yield is 600 bushels the cost per
bushel is but 81 cents. But we have
always found that larger yield cost
more in proportion than small yield,
as better work is necessary all through.
while the cost Of harvesting is greater;
but at the same time the larger yield
pays much the best for cost of profit.
A yield of 200 bushels of corn will often
hardly pay the cost of growing, while
40 or so bushels will return good
profit. There is so much variation in
different localities as to the price Of
land, the cost of labor and other things
that 60 to make up the expense Of grow
ing crop, that the only plan Of posi-
lively knowing what a crop; costs is to
keep an account.--N. J.. Shepherd, in
Journal of Agriculture. -

Eyes, I do. The reasons urg-

to come too near our affairs.
The general temper of the peo-
pie favors our going to the re-

selves in much trouble to be

that this act toward a small

Of national rapacity. We re-

brought the government to

BLOOD WILL FLOW.

Attempt to Open the Mines Under
Protection Will Cause Trouble.
Cleveland, Ohio, Aug. 20. - The de.
cision reached by the operators of the
Pittsburg district at the conference
here to open their mines regardless of
the consequences will probably cause
serious trouble. According to local
coal men, it is the intention of the
Pittsburg operators to engage Pinker-
ton men to protect their non-union
men. This action on their part will
probably precipitate q terrible climax
to the great strike, and the operators
admit that blood will probably flow.
In speaking of the probable result Of
the operators decision, LOTUS Cuddy,
Of the Cuddy-Mullen Coal company,
said to-day:
h IF it is found necessary to do so, a
whole army of detectives will be en-
ployed to protect our men, and if the
worst comes they will be supplied with
gatling guns and other equipments to
convince the strikers that we mean
business. There will be no delay in
inaugurating this movement, and the
first step will be taken Thursday, al
though I do not care to state what the
first action will be-

both houses was held to explain and
discuss the various amendments pro-
posed, which numbered 1O7. Both
houses held brief sessions this even
Ing, but nothing of Importance was
done, save in the assembly, where the
vote by which the governors veto of
the bill to provide for better SANTA
ton of bakeries, which veto was sus-
tanned at the morning session, was re-
considered and the bill passed by a
two-thirds majority. Adjournment was
then taken. The general impression
now is that adjournment win be taken

. SUSPICIOUS DEATH.

"A Traveller Dies An . Grand Forks
Hotel After . Quarrel.
Grand Forks, N. D., Special.-H. Y.
McKoon was found dead In the bath
room Of suite at the Hotel Dacotah
under suspicious circumstances. On
the 18th inst. G. White. H. Y. McKoon
and G. G. Lanehart registered at the
hotel from New 0rk city. They were
together constantly until yesterday, all
drinking considerably. Yesterday MIR.
Lanehart seemed to have fallen out
with his friends, and paid his bill and
quit. Since then, he has not been seen.
White and the dead man occupied the
same room last night, and the occu-
pants Of adjoining rooms claim that
there was considerable trouble in the
room all night between the two men,
who appeared to be quarreling.
White has been held to await an in
vestigation. He claims that the man
came to his death from an overdose
of opium. A doctor was called last
night, and left the man better, and the
explanation is that the drug brought
on heart disease.
