66. Using the same prices as in 1899, the value of the crops off the same area in 1911 was $5, 478. 90, and will be considerably greater than this in 1912, all figures for which crops are not yet available. This shows the effect of good cultivation and right rotations on a given area.
As illustrative of the effects of such treatment upon the returns and profits possible from an acre of land the following figures are illuminating : In 1910, according to the Census and Statistics Monthly, the cro
...p value per acre throughout Canada was $15. 50. The cost to produce this crop was about $9. 60 per acre, therefore the net profit per acre was almost $6. 00. On the Central Experimental Farm, using the same prices or values, the crop was worth $44. 13 per acre produced at a cost of about $12. 65 per acre. This leaves a net profit of $31. 48 per acre for the Experimental Farm as compared with $6. 00 for the average farmer or over five times as great a net profit. In 1911 the difference was quite as striking, while the returns for 1912 promise to be still more markedly in favour of the superior cultural methods which undoubtedly account for the difference.
