COST OF POWER.
A Wide Difference In the Cost o.
Horses and Mechanical Power
on the Farm.
BY Raymond oIney, NJ. RumIey Co.
La Porte, Ind.

National Crop Improvement Service.]
The first cost Of tractor as com
pared to that of horses necessary to
supply an equal amount of power
must always be considered in the
growing of crops. An engine which
will do the work of 10 good horses
sells for $1,700. Fifteen horses al
$3.50 each (Which is a low price,
would cost $2,250. In this case the
advantage of tn, tractor is that it can
be worked to the limit of its capacity
and not be materially injured In SO
doing, which is not possible with
horses.
According to Government figures, in
southeastern Minnesota, taken some
time ago, the cost of feeding a horse
for one year is $73.S9, and for Is
horses 1t would be, in round numbers,
s1,100.00. These horses average 948
work hours per year. A Is H.. p. trac-
tor working for 1000 hours will burn
about 5000 gallons of kerosene, which
will cost about cents per gallon. This
gives fuel bill of $4,000 OIL, grease
and minor items would not exceed
$4,000. This shows a large balance
on the tractor side.

RYE IN THE POTATO ROTATION.
Rye Better Than Wheat In Potato Ro,
tation-No More Care Than Wheat
or Barley.
BY =. n. Demaree, Agronomist, J. !.
Case Pillow Works.

National Crop Improvement Service.1
There Is decided tendency among
potato growers to substitute rye in the
potato rotation in the place of wheat
The original Terry rotation was wheat
clover and potatoes. This rotation is
theoretically and practically correct
for potato growers and is widely
throughout the whole country. Since
wheat is more uncertain than rye,
however, many growers are using the
last named crop as they cannot afford
to lose one crop out of three, especially
since that crop is the one that nurses
up the young clover.
Many uses can be made Of the rye
crop. Statistics show that the yield of
grain In the United States has been
somewhat higher per acre than wheat
and practically of the same farm
value. It is no more trouble to care
for than bearded wheat or barley.
The crop can be pastured early and
ia especially good for brood sows.
The grain may also be allowed to
ripen and then be hogged down in.
stead Of cut and threshed. For the
potato grower, however, perhaps the
best method would be to cut and
thresh the crop.
