In every case, rents are measured up- wards from the no-rent line. Digitized by Googk POUTIOAL ECONOMY. 203 175. Bent Does Not Form a Part of the Price of Agri- cultural Produce. — From the principles we have already established, we are able to deduce a conclusion which may, at first, be startling to the reader, viz., that rent forms no part of the price of agricultural produce. This surely is a *^hard saying ;^^ but it can be demonstrated as strictly as any theorem in geometry. We know that re...nt forms no part of the price of agricultural produce because that price is determined by the cost of raising it upon lands which pay no rent. How, then, can rent be an element in that price? If the price of wheat is six shillings, this is because, in order to raise the required amount of wheat, cultivation has to be carried down to the six-shilling land. In a word, the price of produce is not high because rent is paid; but rent is paid because the price of produce is high. If there were enough of the two-shilling land to raise all the wheat required, and more, the price of wheat would then be two shillings, and no wheat-land would pay any rent.
