The approximate amount of labor re- quired to raise some oOf the more im- portant crops has been determined by regent farm studies conducted by the ¢ Office of Farm Management, United £ States Department of Agriculture. The = results show that it requires the Work of one man and one horse for a 1¥-hout; day to cut, cure and harvest an acre of jay. Oats, wheat, barley, rye, buckwheat, and millet, ¢onsume more labor; under normal conditions these grains require the labor of a man for 2 days and for the horse 3 days. Corn for the silo in the Central States consumes three days of man labor and 5.5 of horse work. Tobacco in Kentucky uses 35 days of man.labor against 8 days for the farm horse, but onions, as determined through - studies in Ohio, -sold in bunch- es top the list of vegetables in the amount of man labor they require. Onions use 140 days of man work but only 10 of horse work.
