Il have much pleasure in saying
that on my farm this year | had 500
acres in wheat, and 100 acres In oats.
My wheat averaged about % bushels
per acre. and had 200 acres cut be-
fore the frost. which | sold at So
cents per bushcl, thus realizing on
that wheat $500 per acre, not count
ing cost Of Irvine, seed and labor. With
regard to the other 300 acres OF wheat,
II got touched with frost but Is worth
GO cents per bushel. 1t will net me
$1,000 per acre. but | do not intend
60 sell it at that price, as | can make
more money by feeding 1t to hogs.
My oats turned out about 50bushcls
to the acre, and at IS cents per bushel
will give me $500 to the acre, not
counting seed, Irvine and labor.
On account OF the late spring, a
percentage Of the grain was touched
with frost, but on account of good
prices, farmers will realize a fair
profit on their farms even this year.
