Описание: From CHAPTER I. WHEAT CULTURE. HOW TO INCREASE THE YIELD.It is a well-known fact that the average yield of wheat in this country is absurdly small, being only about fourteen bushels per acre - not half what it should and might be in so new a country - and that the profits of growing it are correspondingly light. All this we have long noticed with regret, and that feeling has stimulated us to prepare this little work, hoping that the facts presented in it may, to some extent, aid the growers to produce better results, to secure larger yields, and thereby larger profits.Whatever a man believes lie can do, if it be proper and he desires to do it, he is very likely to do. It is to the interest of wheat growers to greatly increase their yield per acre, to even double the prevailing average yield, and thereby double their profits. We are well satisfied that this can be done, and it is our desire and aim to convince them that they can easily do it; then, with that faith, they will be sure to accomplish the result.We believe that fuller knowledge and more thought among farmers generally will surely lead to higher achievements in their important work; that increased knowledge of the subject will secure increased yield, and also, as a consequence, afford enlarged profits for their operations.THE FARMERS CAPITAL.Each acre of land, with its necessary appurtenances, constitutes the farmers fixed capital. The more he can produce from each acre, without exhausting his soil, the greater will be his interest on the investment. Labor, tools, seed, teams, and fertilizers, are the temporary capital, and this capital is continually consumed and worn out, requiring as continually to be replenished.Exhausting or robbing the soil from year to year by improvident management, is equivalent to a mans expending or reducing his capital-the principal-instead of only the interest or income. All business men know this to be a ruinous performance, which will, sooner or later, result in bankruptcy.If a farmer has ten acres of land it is so much invested capital, and if by judicious culture he obtains from it three hundred bushels of wheat each year, instead of only one hundred and fifty bushels, it is so much increased income for the capital invested, which is the value of the ten acres - say one hundred dollars per acre, making a capital of one thousand dollars....
