ANALYSIS OF FARM BUSINESS
Extensive Studies Have Been Con.
Quoted by Department OF Agricui-
ture During Past Year.

In order to put at the disposal Of
farmers information which will en-
able them to place their farming op-
erations on a more businesslike basis,
the United States Department of Agri-
culture has conducted extensive
studies in farm business analysis. Dur
ing the lest year 400 records were OBJ
tanned In farm business analysis sur
veys on two general crop and live
stock areas in Iowa, 300 on fruit and
truck area in Florida, 1876 on gen.
eral farming area in New Hampshire,
so on a similar area in Ohio, 100 on
a cooperative tractor and farm Or
ganization study in two areas In ONO.
Several of these surveys have been In
progress for a number of years.
Similar studies on specialized types
of farming are being made in co-opera-
ton with state agriculture colleges.
In Kentucky the tobacco crop on 70
farms in each of two areas has been
intensively studied, with complete
farm survey record taken on many or
the farms at the end of the year. In
New Jersey about 100 enterprise sur
veys records were obtained on tomato

to become diseased.
You may suffer pain in the back, head
ache and loss of ambition.
Poor health makes you nervous. irrita-

But hundreds of women claim that Dr..
Kilmer's Swamp-Root, by restoring
health to the kidneys, proved to be just
the remedy needed to overcome such
conditions.

Mr.. and Mrs. Perkins have been re-

spirit OF cooperation.
Recently" said Mr. Perkins. "the
town has been paved-cvery street and
alley-way. and everything has gone on
most smoothly and tremendously. wish
that that same spirit might prevail here
in Pensacola, which Is so largely re-
sponsible for the success Of the west,-a
splendid spirit that works together for
the building Of the entire western
country.
This same cooperative spirit might
do much for Pensacola, at this time, in
connection with the municipal docks,
II have also been struck with the fact
that we do not take advantage Of the
opportunities we have here. in many
ways. For instance, take our water
the purest in the wOrld,-we do not hal{
appreciate it. In South Kansas, the little
town of twelve thousand souls, where
have been making my home since leav-
ing Pensacola, they advertise the water
on every drinking fountain, Of which
there are a number,-and yet the water
there cannot compare to the Pensacola
wate:.
THE pure water Of Pensacola, Is one
of our big assets, and we should adyer-
tise it to the world in every way pos
sibIe"
When making his home in Pensacola,
Mr.. Perkins was identified with every
public movement for the public good,
and his interest in civic affairs is as keen
now as when he made his home here.
