Fy'EED OF STATE IS
The average cost last year of
producing wheat on 4,616 farms'
distributed fiilrlv well over i Iih '
country was $1.22 per bushel, torn
parcel with an average sale value of
?!-;; a bushel, the department of
agriculture has announced.
I tie average cost of the corn
crop on 7,13 farm was K2 cents a
bushel compared with a nale value
of $1.10 a bushel, and the average
co it of oats on 6.5ulf furms was
50 cents a buahel compared with a
KHle value of 57 cents a bushel.
Kcporta from 2M cotton growerB
having acreage yields of J til pounds
or lint per aero show an average
ciwt of 18 cents a pound and an av
erage sale price of 2'A cents per
pound. For potatoes In different
sections of the country average
production costs were below the
average Belling price, but the niar
Kln was less than in J923.
Costs iticludu charges for labor
of the farmer and his family, and
a charge for the use of the, land
on a cah rental bawls, so that
where cost JUMt equalled the price
received the farmer was paid for
his time und his lnveittment. The
yields on the farms reporting were
generally higher than the average
ields for the states reported by
thf division of Crop and Livestock
estimates of the department. j

Potatoes
The 1.G8S reports tabulated on
potatoes were from farmers hav
ing more than one acre of potatoes
and wero grouped to represent us
ffearly as possible sertions of the
country having similar production
conditions. In the southeastern
or early potato section the average
cost was fxo.Ol per acre and the
average sales value was $1 13.09 per
acre, leaving a margin of $63.08
per acre. The north central group
were less affected by low yi Ids ; f states showed the lowest margin
Deiween cost ami value, i he aver-
and suit corn, than those whose
j crops were severely damaged.
1 The aero ciist of producing wheat
! on all farms reporting, varied from
j$PJ.;x in 1922 to $21.s In 1924.
I The bushel cost was prae tit-ally the
' same for all three years due to
I variations in yield, being $1.1:3 in
1922, $1.21 In 1923, and $1.22 in
1924. The value of the wheat on
i tht'HH farms was $1.11 per bushel
in 1922, It was f!i cents in 1923, and
I $1.43 in 1921. The 1921 uln-al crop
was tho first for the three years
.when the reported value per aero
! was greater than the average cost
' per acre.
The average cost of producing an
J acre of nats varied from $17.10 in
1323 to 1S 93 in 1921. The aver

able expense is met with in main-
'taining these mails and the resi
dents feel tliat they should be giv-
'. en some aid. The county court's
policy has been to aid road dis-
j tricts w hich exhibit a spirit of
helping themselves 9 much as
possible, and whenever the money
' is available the districts are aided.
In this case the county court will
give the district any help which
it finds possible with its limited
: funds.
The delegation also pHc d an
other matter of considerable Im
portance before the court. The
, school district is divided by the
i river, anil the residents on the
side opposite the schoolhouse want
a bridge constructed so that their
children will not have to cross the
river in boats during the -winter.
The residents on tho same sid
fh d In going to the exKnse of
i building the bridge. The matter
has finally reached a point, how
ever, where those on the opposite
s!de demand either a bridge of tho
.division of the district. As the dis
trict would be crippled by the di
vision of Its valuation. It is hoped
that a peaceable settlement can bo
: reached.
! Alter talking with the county
court (his morning, the residents
j agreid to obtain figures on the cost
of a suspension footbridge, and to
lay the proposition of constructing;
such a footbridge ln tho near future.
