This conmachinery the average agricultural worker In the United States Is now able to care for almost three times as many acres of crops as an Individual could handle 75 years ago, according to a study recently made by the division of agricultural engineering of the United States Department of Agriculture. At the same time the hours of labor on the farm have been reduced and farmers have been relieved of much of the monotony and drudgery which formerly characterized their work. Power and labor together account for approximately GO per cent of the total cost of farming and a better knowledge of the power requirements of farm operations and the adoption of more efficient types of power units will do much to cut down production costs. Second Only to Railroads. The primary horse power available for use on farms is greater than that used In mining nnd manufacturing, and is second only to that required for The total power used anrailroads. nually on farms amounts to nearly r hours and the annunl cost amounts to a total of nearhorse-powe- ly $3,000,000,000. Up to the present little scientific study has been made of the basic power requirements of various farm operations. Although the plow Is one of the oldest agricultural tools for which power Is required, the fundamental requirements of plow design are still unknown nnd no satisfactory method of measurii. the actual work done by a plow has yet been discovered. The University of Wisconsin has conducted experiments which show that It Is possible to run an ensilage f the power ordicutter with machine this used simply by by narily employing proper speeds and an Improved blower. Farm power Is derived from animals, gas engines, (including tractors, trucks and automobiles) steam engines nnd electric, wind and water motors. Up to about sixty years ago little power other than that furnished by animals was available to farmers. The small gas tractor, the truck, the automobile nnd electric power have only become important as sources of farm power within the last ten or twelve years. The estimated total numbers of power units now on farms in the United States is as follows: n one-ha- one-ha- encourages the laying out of fields and makes possible the use large of large machines and power units. In Eastern and Southern states, however, the land Is frequently hilly and cut by ravines and streams making small nnd irregular-shapefields necessary. This, of course, discourages the use of large machines and results in a predominance of small farms. Probably the most serious drawback to the efficient use of power In agriculture Is the extreme seasonal demand. In each type of farming followed there is usually some single operation which requires a large amount of power for a limited time and It Is usually this operation whlch determines the minimum amount of primary power that must be available. In the corn or cotton belt the operation requiring the maximum power Is that of planting or cultivating In hay or small grain It Is Such conditions result In harvesting. load facwhat is termed a tor and a high cost per unit of power utilized. The peak load could frequently be reduced by reducing the acreage of the crop which requires this power, but as a rule the farmer Is Justified In retaining such a high acreage of the crop In question because of the relatively high net returns which may more than offset the higher cost of power used In this operation. Other factors which have an Important effect on the efficiency of farm power are the diversity of operations and the small power unit commonly employed under the control of one worker. d low-pow- Horses .....15,916,000 Mules Oxen Tractors Trucks Stationary engines Electric installations Windmills Automobiles 4,654,000 200,000 450,000 356,000 2,500,000 500,000 1,000,000 4,500,000 Great opportunities exist for the cutting down of the cost of farm operations through the reduction in the labor requirements of each operation and by a better application of ihe power used. Before such savings can be effected, however, it Is necessary to make n thorough study of the basic power requirements, and of the factors which affect these requirements. Among these are: Climate, character of the soli, depth of plowing, cultivating, etc.; condition of the crop, size Take good care of the growing stock and feed well.
