Of what it costs to produce each par.
ticular crop. In figuring the cost of
labor enough should be added to pay
for the use Of the machinery. The
cost Of seed will include cleaning, test.
ing and other preparation. Perhaps
the best way to figure the value Of the
manure applied is to include it in the
rent Of the land. Thus the corn crop,
which receives the first benefit from
the manure, can be charged a higher
rent on this account The amount
charged to the oat crop will be less,
while the clover crop, which really
adds to the fertility Of the land. will
pay the lowest rent Of all. Where the
grain is fed on the farm there will of
course be no charge for marketing.
The cost Of clover seed, which is sown
with the oats, should be charged to
he next years clover crop.
Following the expense account
should come a profit and loss page:

They finally traced out a complete

since that date there has been rapid and

Year 1ao9 we exported only 123.opWO

The exports OF hams and bacon reached

have decreased i'm a similar manner, ana
the exports of live cattle. which reached
high tide in 1904 when o35.Ooo heau We're

Looking through the list of exports or
other agricultural products you Will see
the same phenomenon. The total value
of all meat and dairy products exported
from the United States dropped from rom

The percentage of all foodstuffs eX-
ported from the United States dropped
i'm ten wears from 1896 per cent or the
crop in 1899 to 2614 per cent OF the crop
in 1909
The extraordinary falling off in the ex-
ports of wheat, in the face of the large
increase in production, cannot be ex-
plained i'm any other way than because of
the increase OF home consumption The
bureau of statistics has recently Issued
a bulletin which throws light upon this
phenomenOn. 1t shows that exports OF
wheat dncluding -FOUR average ldo,UH.-
600 bushels per annum during the five
years ending June 30. 1884; loaUOWo
ending June 30. 1894: 1872 OO0.O00 bushels
during the five years ending June 30, 1904.
and an average of l13,OOo.VO0 per annum
during the five years ending June 30. 1909.
The exports for 1909 were 1l4,Ooo,OO
bushels.
The exports of wheat during the nine
months Of the calendar year ending
September. 1909. were only 2'.a6S.mi
bushels against 6s.17S.935 bushels dur
ing the same months of 1908: and Of
-four G.2ss 2s3 barrels against 9.42s.3i7
barrels in the same months of last
year This indicates that the calendar
year 1900 will show smaller export
OF wheat than for any previous year
The share of the wheat crop exported
averaged 30 per cent annually from
1884 to 1889: the average fell to 30 per
cent during the next FIVE years. and
1928 per cent was the average for the
last five years.
Home Consumption of Wheat.
The consumption of wheat I'm the
United States has been increasing all
this time, and during the last ten years
at a very rapid rate. The total average
consumption for the five years ending
1 500 was 341 100000 bushels. end the
per capita average consumption for
those years was 4.76 bushels: while
during the last five years the people OF
the United States have eaten an aver
age of 543. 100000 bushels per year.

other Countries Feed England.
We used to furnish the greater part
OF the nations of Europe, especially Great
Britain. with beef as we'll as bread; but
as YOU have seen from the figures
have given, they cannot depend upon us
nowadays Our production of food
products, although they have increased
in almost fabulous manner, has not
kept pace with the growth of our popu-
lation and the increase of that purchas-
ing power which comes from larger
wages. At least One-third of the earn
ings of mankind are expended ior food
and that estimate, winch prevails lne
world around. is exceeded in many parts
of this country.
The Argentine Republic, New Zealand
and Australia are becoming the chief
sources of supply for the meats of Great
Britain: lines of large steamers fitted
up with refrigerating apparatus are sail
ing frequently and regularly between
those countries and Europe, carrying very
little else than chilled beef and mutton
and other meats.
The increase OF our foreign commerce
is due to larger purchases of raw products
and larger sales of manufactured goods
which now constitute about 20 per cent
of our imports. and almost as large All
amount of our exports. II was not many
years ago that the proportions were the
other way-that IS per cent of our exports
were agricultural products and % per
cent manufactures; but we are becoming
manufacturing nation instead of
nation OF farmers.
The increase in the exports OF manu-
featured goods have been remarkable. IN
1850 they constituted only Ii per cent.
and in 1875 they were only 20 per cent
of the whole exports. III the same classi-
fication were followed i'm the custom
