It will cost from $55.00 to $75.00 an acre to 

 mature and market an acre. Where several 

 acres are grown, the cost will be somewhat 

 less. About $9.00 a ton seems to be the 

 average price in the fall. By holding in 

 storage, a higher price is generally received. 

 Locally 50 to 60 cents a bushel is paid. 



Gross returns are quite constant, as this 

 crop is not very difficult to obtain, nor do the 

 markets fluctuate greatly, from $150.00 to 

 $180.00 an acre being received. The net 

 should be about $125.00 to $130.00.
