If there is one thing that deserves
special emphasis on the farm today
it is the need Of better business

If there is one thing that deserves
special emphasis on the farm today
it is the need Of better business
methods and more definite knowledge
of the sources of profit and loss.
believe am safe in saying that not
one farmer in ten can give any defin'
tie data on any of his farm operations.
How much did this particular crop OF
wheat cost? How much profit have
realized from that particular piece
of land tine last five years? How much
does it cost to feed my animals fos
one year and what profit do get from
them. These are questions every far
mer should ask himself and then
strive to answer them to a business
mans satisfaction. OF course he
knows in a general way whether he ia
making more than a living, but he
does not know the sources Of his pro-
fits, nor has he detected the leaks in
his farm business which are depriving
him OF bigger ones.
Success in dairying depends abso'
lutely upon an accurate knowledge
of all the details of the business. Re.
cords of progressive and unprogres-
siye dairymen indicate that there is
no business which shows a greater
range of profit than that Of dairy
farming. Investigations of creamery
patrons illustrate this most strikingly
and show that one dairyman frequent
ly makes double the profits Of his
meighbors.
Hoard's Dairyman made an investi.
cation with 100 patrons, and they
found that one patron made $3.50
for every dollar invested in feed for
his COWS, while another made 81, and
another lost SO cents. They all had
the same climate, he same soil con-
ditions. and the same market for their
products. How would you account
for the difference? 1t must have been
due solely to the amount Of intelli-
gence put into the business. The first
one no doubt read good dairy farm
literature and purchased good books
relating to his business. He attended
farm institutes and accepted the ideas
of those who had studied the problem
confronting him. He had an idea tina:
his was a business demanding close
attention and therefore kept an &C.
count with the COWS, charging them
with their feed and care, and credit
ing them with all the milk they pro.
duced. He also knew how much it
cost to raise the feed, and every part

BOOKKEEPING DESIRABLE
NJ: FOR FL RMERS
BY r. w. MERRILL. FEDERAL JUNIOR DAIRYMAN IN coos
TON WITH sTAtE DAIRY Department.

The farmer who last so cents for
every dollar Invested in feed was
probably following the methods OF
things in the same old way. His
farm was probably mortgaged, his
land weedy, his buildings delapi-
dated, the fences down, his animals
poorly fed, and he was brooding over
the disasters about to come upon him
through the passing Of the reciprocity
act and probable war with Japan.
He is a thinking man but doesn't
think in the right direction.
The average farmer should devote
more time to his farm, working out
his own problems and leave the politi-
cal questions to those engaged dn that
business. One feature Of this inten-
sified dairy farming is connected with
the accurate business method to be
followed in order to make it success
full. Records Of the performance of
each cow forms the only accurage and
safe basis for Judging his value. If
Improvement is sought and it should
be sought by every dairy farmer, the
only way it can be done is by keeping
record of the production of every.
COW, Gull out the improbable ones,
and give extra care and attention to
the profitable ones.
A cows feed should be based entire
ly upon the amount and kind of milk
she produces, and this can be deter
mined only by carefully Weighing the
milk at each milking and applying the
Babcock test to determine the quail

wants training in accuracy and effic-
iency can get it by following we'll
organized system of herd Improve
ment. The inspirations derived from
it will be sufficient to keep him on the
farm and satisfy him with farm life.
The Illinois experiment station, after
testing a number of herds in that
state, commented as follows:
Nearly every herd we have tested
has proved that some of the COWS
produce butter enough to pay a hand
some profit to the owner, while Others
that require the same feed, care, and
time spent in milking, do not make
butter enough to pay for the feed they
eat. One man who kept twelve COWS
got more money for the milk of three
OF them than he did for that Of all
the other nine put together.
Those who are engaged in the bust.
ness of milk production or who are
going into dairying ought to begin at
