FARM MACHINERY INDEX
TO FINANCIAL PROGRESS
What is the net worth of your
farm business? Is it more or less j
than one would imagine from a ea>- j
ual inspection of your farm? Do i
you know for sure whether you are
going or coming in financial standing?
These are important questions to
the farmer, ana questions that are
not so easily answered as would at
first appear. Farming is an intrlm
catc business, and one in which re^
turns from investment are sometimes
long delayed, so that progress can
not be accurately measured by the 1
amount of money taken in in a given
time. Sometimes cash income may
ho :i 1 tr> MSit whnllvr i?
duction in other assets, so that in 1
reality the result is like taking money
from one pocket and putting it in
another.
The farm inventory, or property
list, offers the only practicable way
of answering' these questions. Once
the farmer has made a complete list
of all his assets and liabilities and i
has balanced them he knows just i
what his net worth is, and when he |
has made such a list annually he
knows each year whether he has gone
forward or back, and just how much
has been the increase or decrease in
the net worth of his business.
The United States Department of:
Agriculture has just issued Far- j
mors' Bulletin 1182 entitled "'Farmj
Inventories," in which are given dc-1
tailed instructions for making an in- j
ventory of farm property and revi*.
ing such a list from year to year, i
By using the simple system describ-1
ed in this bulletin any farmer -can i
determine exactly his financial ::ta-j
tus and lay the foundation for a per-1
manent system of accounting. Without
the farm inventory as a basis no!
system of accounting that might bo |
chosen would be of any great use to
the farmer.

IMMIGRATION IS
BIGGEST PROBLEM:
Washington. ? Immigration legislation
will be the most important
problem to be considered at the approaching
session of congress in the
opinion of the executive committee of
the American Federation of Labor. In
a special report, appearing in the !
current issue of the American Federation,
the official organ of the Labor
Federation, the committee gives!
immigration priority over amendments
to the transportation act and
steps to expand the United States |
employment service.
"With two million idle and thousands
of immigrants pouring into the
country every day," the report says, i
"the dangers ahead of America are1
so serious that even the enemies of j
labor are fearful of the future.
"It is absolutely necessary for |
every national and international
union, every state and city central (
and local unian to impress upon j
members of congress that American j
labor as well as all the people should
be protected from the menace of excess
immigration. No other question
is of such vital importance to the
woi'Kers."
A bill prepared by the American,
Federation of Labor and proposing!
an investigation of the continued
high cost of necessities will be pre- j
sented in both houses early in the |
session, the committee said.
QUALITY IMPORTANT FACTOR
IN MARKETING FARM PRODUCE
An example of the part that qual- 1
ity piays in a business of direct marketing
of farm produce is furnished
by the experience of a man in Ken- :
tucky who marketed eggs, dressed
poultry, meats, and fruits to eonsum- j
ers in Nashville, Tenn.
The business was established over j
two years ago by obtaining a friend
as the fir: 1 customer. 1<roni this'
modest beginning the producer has;
obtained sufficient customers to buy I
all of the "high grade produce he ear* j
supply. Most of the shipments are J
made by parcel post.
This business is conducted on the
basis of high quality with adequate
returns. Customers are selected with
as much care as most consumers
show in selecting a producer from
whom to buy farm produce. Customers
are retained by never breaking
the( rule to supply only the best produce
raised on his farm. Tf, when
an order is obtained, this farmer
does not have produce of the highest
quality, he informs the customer and
states that unless otherwise instructed
the produce will be shipped at ths
earliest possible date.
disprWeIldthTory
charring stops decay
The old theory that charring the
>utts of fence posts and telephone
Doles preserves the wood has been
disproved by a series of tests conlucted
by a forests products laboratory
of the forest service, Department
of Agriculture, on fences with
iharrcd and untreated posts of varous
species. Tl\e charred posts1
proved in these tests to be even less
lurable than Ihe untreated ones.
Theoretically, an area of
harred wood around a post should
Drevcnt decay, because charcoal docs j
lot decay or encourage the growth of
'ungi. But the charred area around
i post is not usually a solid covcrng.
It is checked through in many
jlaces. If posts are seasoned before
hey are charred, the charring does j
not reach to the bottom of the season
ihecks which are always present. If
green unchecked posts are charred,
ihecks will open through the charred
xirt as the wood seasons. In either
jase the uncharred center of tlie post
s exposed to fungi infection and will
lecay as rapidly as untreated wood.;
Charring doop enough to resist de ay

Most Articles Imported Into
the United States Show
Effects.
The wave of price reduction has
ixtended to every part of the world, j
Two thirds of the principal articles j
\o\v being imported into the United j
States, says a statement by the National
City Rank of New York, were
sold in the country of production at
i less price than the same class of
irticles sold thirty, sixty or ninety
lays earlier.
Measurement of the prices at
which the various articles which we
import are sold in the country of
production is continues the bank's
statement, quite feasible under our
import laws which require the official
valuation of the articles entering
our ports to be the wholesale1
wilue in the country from which exported
to i he United States?the
price at which ilie articles were actually
sold, or the average wholesale
market, price for such articles
it the port from which exported to
the United State:.. Thus, if we see
that the government reports of the
import price of any givp.i article in
Die month of September, 1920 is less
than that of earlier months in the
year we may assume that tlie average
price at which that class of
merchandise was sold in the country
:>f its production was less at the
Into at which it started to us than
in the corresnondino* Hnto nf oovlim*
months.
'Pake coffoe as an illustration; il
comes to us from more than a score
of countries representing1 South
America, Central America, Asia, Al l
pica, Oceania and the West Indian Jj
Islands; then we find that the aver- J
age valuation of the coffee imported j
in the month of September, 11)20,
was stated by the government at only
1(1.(ic per pound against 18.4c in
August, 20.4c in July, 21.Gc in May;
22.3c in February and 23.9c in October
of last year, we know that the
average wholesale price of coffee in
the various countries from which
the billion pounds imported in the
last year was drawn has steadily
fallen, and stands at this latest
:late for which figures are available
at a less average valuation
than in any month since April, 1911),
in which the average import price
of the coffee brought into this country
was exactly that of September,
1920, lG.Gc per pound.
New silk which comes to us from
a half dozen countries, shows a similar
decline/ in the average world
price, the average import price of
raw silk entering the United States
in September, 1920, having been but
?G.56 per pound against $10.(>7 in
May and $12.28 in March. 1920,
when it stood at the high-set point!
in our import record.
That the world prices of most of j
the principal articles which we buy i
from abroad have fallen, is evidenc-!
ed by the fact that more than twothirds
of those for which import
prices are stated by the government
show a lower valuation in the
official reports of September than
in the immediately preceding month,
and nearly all of them are at lower
rates than those of certain earlier
months. Clothing wool, for example,
Irawn from Australia, South America,
South Africa, Asia and certain
European countries averaged only
13.7c per pound in the imports of
September, 1020, against (10.3c per j
pound in March of the current,
year. Rice, coming to us especially
from Japan, China, India, Siam and
Fyench Indo-China averaged in the
import valuation?and therefore
the average value in the country
from which drawn?only 8.!)c per
pound in September, 11)20. against (
10.9c in Many, and 11.1c in Febru- 1
:iry of the current year. Cocoa
imports of September, 1920, averaged
11.6c per pound against 17.7c in
July, 1920, and 20.^c in August,
