CANNOT GET
 STATE BONUS

Because the unappropriated rev. enues of the city are insufficient, teachers in the Bridgeport schools will not be able to collect the state bonus of sS7 in addition to their reg ular salary increase, according to John A. Leverty and Harry E. Husted, members of the sub-com- mittee of the Board of Apportion- ment on educational matters. With William B. Seeley, chairman of the board, the subcommittee members said it was their understanding that when the board voted to provide for $500 increase for each teacher in the schools the $S7 bonus was to come out of that amount and that the remaining s21S was to be the real in. crease for each teacher.
 we have no assurance that we will be re-im bursed by the next leg islature," said Commissioner Leverty at the meeting yesterday. '"The next legislature may be of a different mind from the last legislature which voted a bonus of $3 per pupil, but failed tu provide funds to pay this bonus."

WITHDRAW DEFAULT
 IN TENNIS DOUBLES

Convinced that their failure to ap pear on Monday had been due to a misunderstanding, the committee con- ducting the Eastern New York State doubles tournament at the Amac- kassin Country club withdrew the de- fault against Ichiya Kumagae and Francis T. Hunter and called for Ingo Hartmann and Fred Letson to meet them in a third round match. It was played yesterday and resulted in an easy victory for the Japanese and his partner, who hit too hard and had too much speed for their oppon- ents. The score was 6-2, 6-2.
 Kumagae and Hunter must now play James D. Ewing and H. New bery in the semi-final and the win ner is to face Frederick c. Anderson and Ben Letson in the title match.

Fremont County Farm Bureau News
PRODUCTION COSTS

A preliminary report of costs of
of producing wheat on 4S1 farms
in 1919, is of interest because it is so
Indicative OF the fact that production
costs vary greatly in agriculture.
The average cost of producing near
ly 100000 bushels of wheat was
S215 per bushel. The range in cost
WIS all the way from 81 to IS per
bushel.
1t is very evident that the man who
produced wheat at a cost Of 81 per
bushel made considerable money,
while the man who spent IS in raising
a bushel Of wheat lost money aplenty.
There is much significance in this
report from the United states Depart
ment of Agriculture for every man
interested in farming, because the
great variation in costs of production
applies to all phases of agriculture.
Climatic, soil and labor conditions
may be greater factors in varying the
costs of producing wheat than dairy
products, but survey would show a
variation quite as great, we believe.
in producing milk and butterfat.
Even as it is true that a penny
saved is penny earned. so It is true
that decreasing the cost OF producing
any article is'a direct avenue to GER
tain profit.
Another lesson the report OF costs
OF producing wheat illustrates is that
large production is cheap production
as a rule. The average production OF
winter wheat per acre was 14.9 bush
els per acre. and the average cost was
$1.s7 per bushel. The average spring
wheat per acre was S.4 bushels. and
the average cost per bushel was $2.65
