tory of most of the new sections of
this country that their first important
cash crop was wheat. Wheat was
easily transportable, yielded quick re-
turns, involved comparatively little
capitalization and required little spe-
cialization. Consequently, it was
grown almost to the exclusion of other
crops until now production made it
decidedly improbable.
AFTER few years with practically
no wheat growing most of these states
are beginning to grow wheat again
but. instead of being the main crop,
it is part of rotation which in
cludes corn and clover or other
crops.
Wheat Too Low
"The surprising thing is that such
states as Ohio and Illinois. with their
high-priced land, IRE gro ring wheat
at lower cost per bushel than the
newer lands of the Dakotas: The rea-
son for this lies in the fact that good
crop rotations, good farming methods,
and we'll adapted varieties have come
into more general use in these states
than in the west. Since higher yield
is one of the biggest factors in low
ering cost per bushel. the cost has in
many cases been lowered below that
of the western growers.
ut is unquestionably true that the
price of wheat has often been low in
proportion to the cost of producing it.
This was partly because enormous
areas of new land were opened up,
and over-production frequently re-
suited.
There are now practically no large
areas of new land to be opened up for
wheat growing in North America.
The nation must have wheat to eat,
and therefore will necessarily pay in
the future high enough prices to draw
out the supply needed.
"This fact, and the plans now un-
der way for more efficient marketing

MARKETING MILK

The Future of the Market Milk Farm"
was the subject of the talk by Dean Hills
He stated that at least $500, 900 worth of
soluble plant food is being taken out
over our railroads from the market milk
farms of Vermont every year, and the
problem is how the market milk farmers
are going to replace this outgo. 1t ID
thoroughly established that Vermont must
be market milk State. The question is
In the words of DR.. Hills, How are w,
going TO eat our cake and have it too?"
There are three principal ways of re.
placing this plant food which is taken
out by the shipping of milk. These are
by means Of commercial fertilizer, by the
feed sack and by the seed sack Com
mercial fertilizer is useful in hastcning
the growth OF the crop but is not tbs
best method Of replacement for con.
tinuocs use. We can get considerable
