The relative efficiency of blows of diff ferent sizes. the value of the tractor com pared with horses. the saving effected by corn binders. hay loaders and num- erous other implements. and other facts bearing on farm management are dis crssed by specialists of the office of farm management. United States department of agriculture. in a buleltin recently iS- sued. The publication discusses in de- tail the standard days work in central Illinois; that is, the amount of work. that the 500 farmers included in the in- vestigation ordinarily do in the part Of the work day devoted to a given farm operation. such as the number of acres piowed with a given equipment. In some instances the rate of work is given in the bulletin in number of minutes per load, as in loading and unloading hay, or hauling and spreading manure
 From the figures published one may get a good idea of the rate at which differ ent farm operations are done in the parts of the corn belt in question. For example, 1t is shown that one man does from 70 to 80 per cent more with the 2S-inch horst-drawn gang blow than with the one-bottom 16-inch plow
 Figures are given for spring and fall blowing, narrowing, planting, cultivating. harvesting, husking, seeding, unloading ear corn, unloading oats, loading and unloading hay, and hauling and spreat- ing manure The bulletin is entitled. The Standard Days Work in Central Illi- nois.' Copies may be had by addressing the United States Department of Agri- culture, Washington, D. c.
 The farms represented by this inquiry are fairly typical of those throughout the middle western states, since the av. craze crop area is 1874 acres and an av- craze of S2.1 acres is never planted to crops. Corn is the principal product, at least one-half of the crop area being devoted to it, and the oat crop is second in importance. The ground cultivated in most instances is level, and so repre- sents easier working conditions than roll ing or rugged country.
