FARM analysis RECORDS
AROUND MIDDLETOWN

Farmers living in the vicinity Of
Middletown. Odessa. Townsend and
Mt Pleasant. who gave County Agent
L. VI. Cooch a statement of the re-
ceipts and expenses of their farms
last winter. will be interested TO know
that he will revisit these same farms
in January. After the records taken
last winter had been figured out and
returned practically every one OF the
sixty-fve farmers requested the
county agent to take series OF rec
ords extending over a period OF ut
least five years. II will be remem-
bered that last year was particular
ly good wheat and corn year. and as
prices for these two grains were
above normal, a record of one year
only could not give a fair estimate of
the farm yields in that territory "
will therefore. be interesting to note
the difference between the incomes
secured from that farming area last
year. and i'm 1915. The records taken
last year showed. for example, that
/ the average yield OF hay for those
| sixty-hve farms was less than a ton
per acre. and as direct result a
( great deal of alfalfa has been put out
this year.
The farm analysis records enabled
the county agent to point out that
timothy and clover had been raised
at a tremendous loss on most OF those
farms Doubtless this new series OF
records will bring 10 light other con-
ditions that should be modified in
order to make the Middletown area
more Droftable. With such excel
lent soil. few slight changes in
farm management should make prac-
tically every farm more productive
