Jendrzejewskl said that the fig ures were quite hiRh, and that "we cannot afford to spend that kind of money on a crop that won't make .the grade." He estimated the cost at $2.18 to $3.58 per sack of U.S. Number Ones, depending on the yield. A higher yield would result in lower costs, he said.

His figures were based on a total growing cost of about $134 per acre, which, he said, would be about the same regardless of the yield. Harvest costs would vary depending on the yield, and fixed cost, based on a 20-acre operation, would be about H6 per acre. Fixed costs include such things as interest, depreciation and other items. He said that for a larger operation, the fixed costs per acre would be lower. In the 20-acre operation, the value of the grower's own labor was estimated at about 126.50 per acre. , Harvest costs were estimated at from $60 to $110 per acre, depend ing on total gross yield. After allowing for 10 per cent storage shrinkage, and packing costs of 48 cents per sack, he came up with his final figure of from $2.18 to $3.58 per sack, with the high yield field giving the lower per -sack cost. In his computations, he as sumed that 70 per cent of the crop was Number Ones, 20 per cent Number Twos or B's, and the remainder culls. In figuring their contribution to the net in come per P.cre, he assumed that , the Twos and B's sold for one dol lar per hundred weight, and the culls at 25 cents. He said that from 53 cents to $1.08 would have to be added to the cost of the sacks to give the grow er a profit of $100 per acre. The larger figure would be edded to the low yield, high cost sacks. Because of these high costs, Jen drzejewskl concluded, grow ers could not afford a high per centage of culls, and should select seed carefully in order to prevent diseased seed from getting Into their fields and reducing the per centage of Number Ones.
