COST OF PRODUCTION.

The Importance of finding the cost
of producing the various crops on the
farm can scarcely be overestimated.
Without a knowledge of the relative
cost of the various crops the manager
can not determine what crops to grow
1t Is not an easy matter to deter
mine the actual cost of growing the
various crops. There are many un-
known factors that must be consider
ed. The weather is always an I'M
known quantity in the equation The
cost and deterioration of implements
are to be taken into consideration
when cost in production is estimated
The efficiency of the teams the skill
and movements of the hands; cost of
seeds, plants, fertilizers, etc, are all
to be reckoned.
But it is possible to estimate the
cost of the leading crops, such as
corn, cotton, alfalfa, pork, beef, NUT
ton, buterfat, etc, for a series of
years, then take the average as the
cost of production. This will be
guide for future years. 1t will assist
the manager in reducing his crops,
livestock and system of farm practice
to a more profitable basis.
There is always a question as to
whether certain minor crops for feed
and for food should be produced or
whether it is cheeper to buy these
with other crops that can be produced
at less expense. For instance, if it
is cheaper to buy syrup than to raise
sorghum or sugar cane and make the
syrup at home then the manager
should buy syrup. If it is economical
to supply the protein in alfalfa, peas
peanuts or soy beans, these plants
should be grown for that purpose;
but if another crop can be produced
with which to buy cotton seed meal
or some other source of protein then
grow that crop and buy the protein
product.
1t would be a comparatively easy
matter to ascertain the relative cost
of growing the various crops of the
several kinds of animals on your farm
This information would be of great
benefit to you and you can scarcely
afford to neglect it.
Open an account with the crops and
animals this year and determine what
they are costing you. In five or ten
years you will have established re-
lative cost of production that will help
you eliminate the Improbable ami
mails and enable you to change your
rotation to more profitable system.
This method of keeping accounts will
help you systematic farm operations
by reducing unnecessary expense and
establishing the relative cost of pro-
duction.-Farm and Ranch.

ANOTHER CLEAN RECORD IN THE
CANAL ZONE

The report of the department Of
sanitation of the Isthmian Canal Com
mission for September, 1913, showed
that during that month not a single
white man. woman or child from the
United States had died from disease
on the Canal Zone. The report for
February, 1914, shows that another
record has been established. During
that month there were 1892 white
employees. Among this number,
equal to the population of good
sized city, there was not a single
Death from disease during the month.
Two white employees were killed by
accident, one by electric shock and
tne other by injury received on the
railroad, but no white employee, either
American or foreign, died from dis
ease during that time. AS might be
expected, the death-rate among other
classes was equally low. Of the $500
