Cost Of Raising Corn.
The present low price Of corn and
the enormous quantity which is piled
up in bins and warehouses everywhere
in this country is the most emphatic
evidence that corn can be produced at
a very low cost. and it Is plain from
the experience of hundreds of corn
raiSers that there Is a profit in prOduc
ing corn on Il large scale, even at the
present low prices, for many thous-
ands Of farmers have made good liv-
ing and laid some profit by from their
corn lands.
1t Is perfectly true that the man
with small farm. devoted exclusively
to corn raising. can get only very
precariOus living out of corn when the
price is under % cents on the farm.
But even the small farmer can assure
himself Of a substantial surplus with
the prospect OF substantial surplus,
land to raising the products which
he needs for his family. and raises
corn. well cultivated and carefully
cared for. on the rest of 1t.
II must not be forgotten that the
present low price of corn is due to two
years Of very extraordinary yields. and
though this years crop is moderate.
by comparison with those years. the
surplus In the country. added to what
was produced this year. makes the sup
ply In the country about as large as
1t was ever known to be. and the cost
of production of the corn which most
farmers have on hand ut the present
time. must be figured on the basis of
large yields. so that, even at present
low prices the great bulk Of the corn
in the country represents good deal
more than what it has cost the farmer
to produce it.

LARGEST Motor in the World.

The largest motors in the world are
in use in the huge forests of Canada,
where they are used to drag logs over
the snow and rough roads. They
were specially designed for the pur-
pose by a Chicago man. One of these
machines is capable of dragging a
train of 200 tons weight of logs at a
speed of twelve miles an hour 1t is
the only machine in existence which
will draw q heavy load through three
feet of snow and over stumps and
logs foot in height. It is twenty
five tons weight and 200 horse power.
1t travels on four runners, with a
traction wheel in the center weighing
seven tons The machinery Is en-
closed in a box-like affair, giving the
motor a somewhat strange appear
ance as it makes its way along forest
roads.
