|STACK THRESHING
HAS ADVANTAGES

Records show that it costs the farmer
a little more to stack his grain and
thresh it from the stack than it does to
thresh directly from the field, says L.
B. Bassett, University Farm, St. Paul
The cost of threshing alone in thresh-
ing from the stack is less than the cost
Of tlreshing in the field, but when the
cost Of stacking, which must be taken
into consideration, is added, the cost of
stacking and threshing from the stack
is little higher. To offset this, how
ever, the straw and grain are usually
of a better quality. Considerable loss
is likely to result from leaving grain in
the shock a long while waiting for the
threshing machine. Especially is this
true il wet weather prevails. Further
more, if grain is stacked as soon as it is
fit, in case Of wet weather the pillow can
be started. Shocks standing any length
Of time on fields seeded to grass kill
|out the grass. Consequently in fields Of
this kind the grain should be threshed
or stacked as early as possible.

WHAT DOES IT COST
TO THRESH GRAIN?

a5rEa + i
The average cost Of operating thresh-
ing machines of all sizes, including oil,
depreciation, interest on investment,
ETC., Is approximately 8 cents a bushel
for wheat, and about half that for oats,
says L. B. Bassett, University Farm,
st. Paul. The labor cost is usually a
very little more than the machine cost.
The total varies from year to year
with the quality Of the crop and the
price Of labor. Much also depends on
the number Of bushels threshed in a
season, as it requires certain number
Of days. work each year to offset the
fixed costs of the machine A man
threshing $4,000 bushels in a season
does so at a much less cost to the bushel
than a man who operates only fifteen or
twenty days and threshes 10000
bushels. The labor cost is the same, but
the machine costs differ.
