This, operator, W. J. Dougan, tells the following story: “When I started farming I began keeping a simple cash account, but soonToundthat it was not sufficient accounting for farm purposes. Such a record did not^- take i^to consideration the vital fac tors of improvemeuts, growth of live stock or depreclatffm. ■' “Since 1910 I have kept a complete account on the accrual basis. The accounts, however, are no more than any farmer can easily keep. The out standing benefits from keeping such accounts might be listed as follows: The Way It Works $1. Income tsx reports made easier. —Accurate and dependable income tax reports can be made from the yearly accounts. By keeping them on file 1 am always ready to satisfy the tax inspectors. “2. Accounting makes possible a budget system.—With the accumulat- in make out the budget for the coming year. The income being fairly stable, the budget problem is to adjust the ex penditures. If one branch of the busi ness will need extraordinary expendi ture such as new machinery, there must be a cut In some other branch, such as building or livestock- pur chased, or fencing. “3. Accounting gives a true basis for credit.—Especially has accounting meant for me larger credit and happy relations with my banker. Witfi a complete financial statement before him the banker can Intelligently deter-* mine what credit I should have. With a full knowledge of the farm profits, in the past,* I know what credit I should accept. No farmer or business man should accept credit, from his bank unless he is able to put the money Into productive investment, and his margin of profit ^assures the ability to repay the loan within a reasonable time. “For the farm this reasonable time cannot be three or six months. The farm turnover is too slow for that. A helpful and just period of farm credit for working capital must be from ooe to four years. There Is another benefit , from ac counting—the benefit of^^Hnowing whether one is going up or down. By extra sales one might be flush of money and buy heavily, thinking he is coming out ahead, but in reality he | is sacHflcing the future.- On the other hand, one might feel pinched, and have little money to. spend, but in reality he is laying up capitaL* sion has suggested the following form of farm credit statement, Indicating the records necessary to be kept: SUGGESTED FARM CREDIT STATEMENT (Adapted from blanjk used by Federal Reserve Bank, Chicago) On?

ON MAY 25, 1927, when Hcnty Ford first announced his plans for making a new car, he announced also that he would continue Jo make parts for the Model T Ford. - He said: < 0' <f The Model T Ford car was a pioneer. It blazed the way/for the motor industry and started the movement for. good roads everywhere. It broke down the barriers of distance in rural sections, brought people in these sections closer together, and placed education within the reach of everyone. We are still proud of the Model T Ford. If we were not, we would not have continued to make it so long.” For twenty years, the Model T Ford led the automobile industry and it still serves more people than any other auto mobile. Over one-third of all^ the automobiles in use today . are Model T Fords — an indication of the sturdy worth of the car and its value to people in all walks of life the world over. ...„ v The Ford Motor Company will continue td make re placement parts for these cars "until the last Model T is off the road.” That is a part of Ford service. That is what Henry Ford meant when he said: "We believe that when a man buys one of our cars we should keep it running for him as, long as we can and at the lowest up-keep cost.” Because of this policy a considerable part of the Ford manufacturing plants is given over to the making of parts for the Model ILFord. These replacement parts are made of the same material and in the same way as those from which your car was originally assembled. Make it a point, therefore, to see the nearest Ford dealer and have him look over your Model T Ford. You may find that a very small expenditure wilt enable ybu to get thou sands ^miles-of-Tiddrttottaf^erviceraHcLarThe same time protect the money you have invested in your car. .i .{ Ford Motor Company ' , ' O-- ^ • « Vi- Detroit, Michigan S' UVE STOCK l>»u> Bull* Maw < ,..a H-iim »• ~ t'.L r* Growm Acrrs Corn.
