The Southern farm gazette. (Starkville, Miss.) 1895-1909, 1902-07-01

Commenting on these tiures
Secretary Coburn says:
In none OF these calculations
has any allowance been made for
the value of the constals, which,
ordinarily undercrudest manage
ment, should offset the cost of
harvesting the grain, and under
proper management should have
a forage much in excess of such
cost. Taking these into every
estimate, as should rightly be
done, the showing of cost per
busbel would be very sensibly
diminished. In the results of
this investigation it will likewise
be noticed that the rental of these
Kansas corn lands, or the inter-
est figured by their owners on the
vestment represented, averages
more than 81 per cent or a net
rate higher than the capitalists,
general banke. or money-lender
dreams of realizing.
Further, it should be unde"-
stood that the thrifty Kansas
farmer does not measure the
profit Of his crop by the narrow
margin shown in the items of
cost and value. He does not, as
rule anticipate selling his corn
by the bushcl at the figures CIV
en- as value, nor expect more if
he did so than a moderate return
one year with return. for his
labor investment; it is the con.
version of it into beef, pork,
poultry, dairy and similar pro-
ducts from which comes the sur
plus to make the comfor table
homes and build the school
houses, colleges and churche $
that are such common objects on
his horizon and so largely the
measure OF hisambition.

Cost of Raising Corn.

Secretary Coburn, of Kansas,
with view to determine the cost
of raising corn in that state en-
an ordinary crop year, took the
opinion in detail of 6S veteran
corn growers IN As counties of
the state, giving from their ex-
perience ION such basis as
others can safely accept" each
principal item of cost in growing
and cribbing an acre of corn, es-
timating the yield at 40 bushels.
About two-thirds of those re-
porting prefer planting with lis
tiers and the others use the
better known check-row method,
after the land has been plowed
and narrowed.
The statements ofall the grow
ers summed up, averaged and
itemized, show as follows:

IMPORTANT MOVE.
iDaptIsts NAY Make 1t Permanent Feature OF
Their Work-EeIiqio Notes,

1t is more than probable that the Bap-
fists of the State will make Christian
education a permanent part of their
work.
The matter is one of vast Importance
to the Baptists and is being seriously
discussed in various quarters at the
present time. AS yet the consideration
of the question has been rather cursory.
Before long, however, it is believed that
some strong movement will be develop
ed along this line. Considerable work
will be on hand and it may take long
time before anything is accomplished.
The sentiment of the Baptists generally
will have to be gradually educated in
favor of the scheme.

dowment fund has received a check for
