COST OF GROWING CORN.

The experimental station of Illinois recantlv
undertook to find what it cost to produce
bushel OF corn in Illinois, and to that cnd
sent out 800 circular letters TO which 31e
replies were received, coming from nearly *
per cent of the counties of the state and zen
resentlng 1858 acres, with an average Yield
OF "a bushels. The expense included rib
bing. rent for land and cost for seed the
two latter being figured as practically mi
form throughout the state with the result
that on this basis the cost per acre was IS *
or l6.l cents per bushel. The lowest county
average was 110S cents in Edgar county
ana SS0S bushels in Edwards county
Another similar estimate of cost has been
reported to the Kansas Farmer by the Stand
ard Cattle company, covering a series of n,ne
years, 1889 to 1897 inclusive The operations
OF the company covered from 4S5 to 3 III
acres per annum with an average of 1 1855
per annum, giving an average yield of 81 2
busheis. at an average cost of Sc 2S per acre
or 1919 cents per bushel. This staten emit
showing made. though it is not SO good az he
Illinois exhibit but because the constant OLE
nent OF rent has not been treated &C con-
slant throughout the entire series of wears
named, nor made applicable to all the lands
IL appears, however, that the compiler of
the standard Cattle company table. Mr.. Da
Wis, recognizing that this inconstancv In
such estimate invalidated the accuracy ~
his results, has made a computation elm
lna.lng the question of rent entirely w tb flo
result that the cost per acre is thereby re-
duced to an average for the nine wears RI
$5.6S per acre, and the cost per busheI of
corn to 15.2 cents, which would mean simnIv
the cost of growing corn the farm in 1ues,

Political Evolution.

The last election indicates that the
popular mind is in condition of fux
in regard to political matters. The
obliteration of party lines as they have
existed for third of a century has
commenced. The ''bloody shirt" no
longer arouses enthusiasm. The woes
of the colored man and brother no
longer excite sympathy.
The Republican farmer got dollar
per bushel for his wheat last year, and
is patiently waiting for President Nc
Kinley TO work another miracle and
send it up to the dollar mark again by
creating famine conditions in EuroL e
and southern Asia once more; and
while waiting and doubling has given
the Republican party an extension of
time for another two years.
The Illinois coal miner has caught

bear from devouring it. Tanner has

The public is awakening to the fact
that a new song is in the air; that the
gold standard, which it was assured
in 1896 would overwhelm the land with
prosperity, cannot of itself make the
land flow with milk and honey, but it
must be re-enforced by currency reform
legislation that will turn the whole
monetary system of our land oyer to
the banker and bondholder-and then
there will be such flood of prosperity
that every poor widow will have her

Why was w. V. Byars displaced

Sassippi VaIley Democrat? Was he too
Democratic? The rank and file of the
party in this State are asking these
questions, and the answers must come.
Editorial Dugald Dalgettys are too
common, while the men in metropoli-
tan journalism who make their pens
keep time with their convictions are
too rare for one OF them to be discard

ters to distinguish il from the Republi-
can party on all vital issues.
All this tends to confuse the average
voter. He doesn't know whether he is
going to school or coming home. 1t
puts him in savage frame of mind,
and inclines him to butt at the head
nearest to him. AS result, the party
in power locally has Jared badly this
year. In our neighboring county of
Washington, where there is over a
hundred majority for the Republican
ticket, that party was defeated for
every county Office that had money IN
it. In Jefferson. an adjoining county,
supposed to be Republican, the Demo
cratic majority amounted to something
near three hundred. In Warren coun-
ty. Ohio, normally republican by about
seventeen hundred, this year the local
Democratic ticket was elected by about
five hundred majority, while in Butler,
an adjoining county. normally Demo-
cratic by about the same number of
votes, the Republicans make clean
sweep. All this portends a political
realignment upon the vital issues that
are pressing upon the people for set
Element, and there will be no peace
until they are settled right.
