BANK INCREASES
CAPITAL $4,000

Al special meeting OF the stock
holders of the American state bank,
of Highland Park. II was voted TO
increase the capital stock from $685.
600 TO 100000 A big increase in
the business OF the bank has made
the larger capital necessary.
The bank started business in 1910
as the Woodward-sve. state bank. In
September 1914, the name was
changed 10 the American State bank,
OF Highland Park, the banking build
ng being remodeled at the time.
The growth Of the institution dates
from the occupation OF the new
building. The increase in deposits
is shown by the following figures.

MAN.


A man doesn't whine at his losses
a man doesn I whimper and fret.
or rail at the weight Of his crosses
And ask life 10 rear him a pet
A man doesn't grudgingly labor
Or look upon toll as a blight:
A man doesn't sneer at his neighbor
Or sneak from a cause that is
right.
A man doesn't sulk when another
Succeeds where his efforts have
failed:
Doesn't keep all his praise for the
brother
And pass by the weak and the
humble
As though they were not OF his
clay;
A man doesn't ceaselessly grumble
When things are not going his
way.
\ man looks on woman as tender
And gentle. and stands at her side
At all times TO guard and defend
her.
And never 10 scorn or deride.
A man looks on life as n mission.
To serve. just so far as he can;
4 man holds his noblest ambition
on earth is to live as a man.

This table shows the relative prof
itableness OF the crops which have
been tried on Sunny Side farm. In
this case the oats paid better than
the barley, although the income or
gross returns per acre were nearly
the same; the expense in preparing
the barley land was greater, hence
the profits were smaller.
The comparison OF the relative
profitableness OF corn and tobacco
is not so simple. The tobacco show
ed a larger profit per acre but a
smaller return per unit OF expendi-
ture than corn. The operating ex-
pense being greater. one cannot OPP
crate SO many acres Of tobacco
probably not over one-third as many
acres. For this reason profit per dol
lar OF expenditure seems TO be a
more practical basis for deciding
which OF two crops 70 grow than
profits per acre.
The fact that oats are less profit
able than corn should not deter
the farmer from growing oats Il
they are more profitable than any
other cron which requires the farm
er's energy 20 the same time Of year

How Crop Accounts
Should Be Kept
The Third of a Series of Arti-
Giles on the Business Side
of the Modern Farm.
BY III. O. Taylor.
Professor of Agriculture Economics

The farmer has many lines Of
production from which 10 choose.
The problem Of choosing the crops
which will yield maximum results
can be solved only by a careful
study of the conditions which de-
termine the character OF farm or
SANITATION.
AS a rule the farmer does not con-
line himself to one crop, but COM
bines a number of crops, for eX-
ample. corn, oats, and hay, into one
system Of crop rotation. There seems
10 be a series Of reasons for this
com bination in the corn belt. The
rotation conserves the land; it gives
variety of feed for livestock. and
il enables the farmer 10 avoid haV-
ing all his eggs in one basket.
There is, however, another and more
impelling reason for diversification.
Four Crops a Year.
one cannot specialize on oats or
corn and have a full labor program.
1t is obvious that if the farmer
specialized on oats he would have
nothing 10 do a good share of the
time. BY combining oats and corn,
which require labor at different sea-
sons of the year. a more nearly con-
tinuous program is afforded.
For instance, corn and tobacco
conflict during the season of plant
ing and cultivation. This means
that 10 increase the tobacco requires
that the corn acreage be reduced.
This is likewise true of oats and
barley.
The farmers business problem,
so far as crop selection is concerned,
is that OF selecting from each group
Of conflicting crops the one which
will pay best and combining as
many non-conflicting crops as can
be made TO add to the profits of
the farm one who has grown the
various crops can usually classify
them with reasonable accuracy into
conflicting and non-confiicting
groups. For example, in southern
Wisconsin every farmer knows that
corn. tobacco. sugar beets, and po-
tatoes conflict with each other. but
the question of which Of these crops
will pay the farmer best is usually
not so clearly in mind. There are
those who compare profits per acre
and forget that one can plant and
care for three or four times as many
acres of the one as of the other.
Must Keep Cost Accounts.
] The only accurate method OF com
I pairing profits is TO keep cost ac-
counts which will show the amount
of labor and other expenses laid
out on each crop and the returns
| secured.
The accompanying summary OF
! results of cost account will heir

which cost accounts aid in the selec-
/ tiOn of crops:

is relatively small. The cost system
is confined 10 a few comparisons at
time. otherwise the system be-
comes too much involved. III the
comparison is between corn and to-
bacco. simply charge each OF these
crops for all it gets in the way Of
labor and supplies. just as one keeps
an account with a ne!ghbor with
whom labor is exchanged. from
whom seed oats are borrowed, and
10 whom some calves were sold on
account. Accounts Of this kind are
invaluable because they show which
OF two profitable crops will add the
greater amount 10 the total profits
Of the farm.
