among successful farmers in Steube:i

Steubcn County the cost varied from
1860 TO SiS.I3 last year. one grower
II OSwcgo County found his cost To be
1905 per acre. His average yield was
70? bushels, which left a net profit Of
$3.50 per acre. Large variations were
.Ound between growers as 10 the
amount of seed used, cost of prepa ring
and planting, amount of fertilizer APP
Piled and the yields that We're OBJ
tanned.
In Oswcgo County more fertilizers
we're used per acre. In Stcubcn County
from 500 to 1000 pounds per acre was
used. The large yield of wheat obtain
ed in Oswcgo County raised the cost
per bushcl and made better net profits
