fact the taking of the inventory is
not such difficult task as many think
and probably will not require more
than or 5 hours-possibly only
hours-to complete.
The inventory should be a detail
ed list of all items of farm property
ana the values thereof, including the
farm, the farm buildings, the horses,
the cattle and other live stock. mach
inery, tools, feed, produce. supplies
cash on hand and in the bank,
amounts due from other persons and
owed to other persons, and the value
OF growing crops. The latter is cal
culated by adding the value of labor
and materials already spent on those
crops.
The thing which the United States
Department of Agriculture empha-
sizes is the urgent need of keeping
some form Of systematic accounts. The
elaborateness of the records will de-
pend upon what the farmer wants
to know, and the time he has avail
able for keeping accounts The de-
partment will be glad to suggest
system which will enable him to
figure his income tax and ascertain
what his farm as a whole is making.
1t can also suggest system which
will enable him to determine ap-
proximate production costs on his
farm. For others, particularly own
ers of very large farms, the Depart
ment of Agriculture is prepared to
recommend a detailed cost account
ing system which may require the
services of bookkeeper. For the
men engaged in production on a large
scale such a system will supply in
valuable information.

FARM ACCOUNTING GIVES
AGRICULTURE FIRMER BASIS
Producer of Crops Who Keeps Farm
Books Knows How Much He
Is Making

Here is a medley of familiar say
ings-some with variations-each
Of which applies to farm accounting
and so to the problem of marketing
farm products:
Figures don't lie."
"A calculation in time saves nine"
Foresight is better than hind
sight,"
1T pays to count the cost"
Specialists in the office of Farm
Management, United States Depart
ment Of Agriculture, could add to
this list almost indefinitely, for their
studies of methods of farm manage
ment reveal the tremendous need of
accounting systems on American
farms. The farmer wants to know
whether his wheat pays, whether his
cows pay, and whether his orchard
pays, and yet he seldom has sufficient
ly accurate figures to answer such
questions. Above all he ought to
know, and yet frequently does not
know, if his farm as a whole is a
paying proposition. Department OF
Agriculture specialists do not claim
that the systems of accounting for
| farms which they recommend will
be absolutely exact. They are, never
theless, sufficiently accurate for all
ordinary requirements. The depart
ment does not furnish sets of books
to farmers. The systems which 1t
recommends require only such books
as can be purchased of station r
or dealer in books and school sup
plies.
No Special Training Required
Practical working systems of ac-
counts which anyone may adopt with
out special study are recommended
One of these is direct-entry system
requiring no preliminary books fol
original entries, which later would
have to be posted or copied into per-
manent accounts.
From to 10 minutes a day, in.
vestigatiOn shows, is all the time
required in keeping books, according
to the simpler methods suggested by
Federal specialists. This does not
include day or two, possibly more
required at the end of the year t
close up the books and start a new
set. 1t is recommended that the &C
counting year be started some time
after the last crop is harvested in
the fall and before the first crop
Operations are started in the spring
The beginning should be made on the
first day of some month.
Inventory Highly Important
To many the inventory required in
effective farm accounting is a big
bugaboo, but unnecessary so. Many
farmers keep careful accounts
throughout the year, but fail to real
ize that they are of relatively little
use. without the inventory, in show
ing the years income. AS matter OF
