Some HINTS to Practical Farmers
From Book Farmer.
The most progressive and up-to
date farmers, and likewise those who
are most successful from a purely
financial standpoint, are those who
read and think and study intelligent
y. It is quite a simple matter &c
control many Of our WORST insects and
fungus pests il the work is under,
taken intelligently. Yet we lcss
millions OF dollars annually from
various causes which are practically
under the control of the farmers. II
is naturally surprising that such
should be the case In this day OF N >
dern and successful journalism, snd
yet it IS surprising to know how com
paratlvaly few Ct our farmers take an
zss cul uesl paper and read it and
prolS Dy tie instruction contained
therein.
The farmer, to be successful, must
first OF all understand that business
principles have as definite a relation
to financial success on the farm as IL
any other vocation. BE should there
fore study over his farm accounts
carefully during the year and see
which crops were the most profitable.
It is not a very difficult natter to
keep al account with esca field, sno
it Is safe to say snat II we rea::z d

pound OF cotton or t.bacco, that d!f

fits from the desirsble oDes.
A study OF prof5 and loss is coz
sidered essential in every business
except that OF farming. The great
business houses strike a trial balance
every once In awhile to see how they
stand, yet farming is admitted b3 al
to be at best a complex problem, and
how can the farmer hope to succeed
who keeps no record Of his variou:
transactions? The fact that be does
not accounts tor the lsrge nnmoer OF

there is ample opportunity for those
who are so minded to study the foan

atoms carefully and learn wisdom

of playing for an empty stand.
