GOOD OF FARM ORGANIZATION
One Of Factors In Increasing Perma.
nently Net Income Of Farmer
Records Are important.

tBy d, W. FREAR. Colorado Agricultural
College.)
After all the talk about greater farm
prosperity through increased yields
per acre We are gradually but surely
being forced to admit that this may
be one OF the minor factors In In.
creasing permanently the net income
Of the farm.
On many farms II not the majority
OF farms the greatest problem is the
organization of the different opera
tlons. activities and enterprises into
a smooth working. large net income
producing machine.
This is difficult problem on every
farm and one which the farmer must
work out largely for himself with oc
caslonal help from the outside, In de-
velopment of plans to be followed.
How many farmers frequently and
seriously ask themselves il theil
methods and plans are the best they
could use? How many ever seriously
question the correctness Of theil
farm organization and wonder II q
different adjustment might not be for
the better.
The determination OF what crops
and animals to raise, how many te
raise and when to raise them. the eco
nomcal utilization of the man ant
horse labor and the profitable use ol
all the resources at the hands of the
farmer is more important than sim
ply increasing the yield per acre OF
Of getting bigger price per unit fol
what Is sold.
In order to work out these organi
zation problems farmers must have
detailed first hand knowledge O
their own businesses. This informa
tion can be obtained by keeping sys
tematic business and labor records.
