New PAPER Fabric.

The Boston News Bureau says that
at the sugar mills OF the Nipe Bay
company in Cuba more bagasse or
refuse Is being developed from the
cane than Is needed for fuel and that
the surplus Is being made into paper,
It says that this paper is of a "splen-
did grade" selling at high figures
and good profit. This possibility has
been discussed often and sugar cane
Is not the only product considered
capable OF such use. Over In the

agriculture Is the rapidly with which

FARM MACHINERY
Improved Farm Machinery Reduces
Cost of Production-lessens
Farm Drudgery.
BY Dan scoates, Professor of Asricul-
tural Engineering, A. G. M.
COLLEGE.

by Dan ScoateS, professor OF Agr,cuf'
tural Engineering, A. G. M.
College.
Do you know that America would
soon starve to death If it wasn't for
improved farm machinery? When the
first successful grain harvester was
invented America was starting to go
hungry for bread. Hand methods
couldn't reap and thresh enough grain
TO supply the demand. In 1880 it took
three hours of hand labor and one
hour of animal labor to produce a
bushel of wheat; today it takes ten
minutes of hand labor and one and
one-third hours of animal labor, In
1880 the labor to produce one bushel
cost IS cents, today 1t costs nine
cents. Yet farm labor is more ex-
pensive today than yesterday. I'M
proved farm machinery has made it
possible to produce cheaper and in
larger quantities.
Then we want farm machinery be-
cause it will reduce the cost of pro-
ducing a bushel of corn, oats or what
not. That Is the principal reason.
Some machines do the work better
than the old hand methods, for In.
stance, the manure spreader-it will
spread the manur more even than
you a possibly do 1t by hand, and
further, 1t will do 1t much quicker.
But II, on the other hand, you take
plows, you can do just as good plow-
ing with a six-inch walking pillow as
you can with a 14-inch riding plow.
but it will take you longer and thus
Will increase the cost of producing
your bushel Of corn or bale OF cot.
ton, You know that the difference
between the cost Of producing the
bale and the price you get when SELL
ing 1t is your profit. Therefore it Ia
to your interest to get the cost Of
production down to the lowest DOS
sible point. The same thing said of
plows is true of cultivators: 1t il 60
ing to take you just twice as long to
cultivate a field with a one-horse cul-
'%tiyator as it will with q two.horse.
Improved farm machinery allows each
farm worker to direct more power.
that is where the saving comes. Here
in Mississippi each farm worker has
about twenty-six dollars worth of
farm machinery to Ose and ono bor.o
to work with; he works about fifteen
acres, In Iowa each farm worker has
$196 worth of farm machinery to use
and four horses to operate it with:
he works so acres. The Mississipni
worker has an income of $16S; the
lowan SOIL. (These figures are
some that the United States depart
ment OF agriculture have given us.)
