"Such parts only of the produce of land," says Adam Smith, "can commonly be brought to market, of which the ordinary price is sufficient to replace the stock which must be employed in bringing them thither, together with its ordinary profits. If the ordinary price is more than this, the surplus part of it will naturally go to the rent of land. _If it is not more, though the commodity can be brought to market, it can afford no rent to the landlord._ Whether the price is, or is not more, depends upon the demand."
