cation to this effect to the Office Of
the chief OF engineers Of the War de

on the up-to-date highways problem:
"Fhere will never be time when
all roads are of equal durability and
railroads are analogous. in that they
are both designed to carry traffic and
general rules which have been devel-
oped through scientific management
Of railroads apply as well almost In
varlabiy to highways. The heaviest
locomotives and rolling stock are car
ried on roads like the New YORK Cen
tral and Pennsylvania and Union Pa.

structed railroads would ruin the
roads In a comparatively brief period.
There must come a classification
Of highways over class l the heav-
lest mOtortrucks and trallers would
be permitted; each truck should have
large figures consplcuously placed on
the sides to indicate the total weight
that II was permitted to carry; oper
ators and owners OF trucks should be
prosecuted for using the heaviest
trucks on roads designed for lighter
traffic. II would be comparatively
simple to enforce such provisions, as
there seems TO be. no defense Of the
proposition permitting one or two
heavy trucks to ruin an investment
OF many thousand dollars on the
lighter constructed highways.
AT the road intersection the high
way capacity could be indicated. as
the highway department should, I be-
lieve, have traffic department under
a chief traffic engineer, having TO do,
not with construction and malnte-

what conditions brought IL about.

touch with his business-closer per-
chant or manufactures Neverthe-
less. a record of farm operations
for the year is the only reliable in
formation on which TO base an
analysis of the years results. If he
il to re-adjust his farm operations
in a business-iike way, he must
know exact costs and compare them
with exact receipts. If he is to
supplant one crop, which he finds
is not bringing him adequate returns,
with another, he ought to know def
nitely how much the new crop will
cost him to grow.
So long as business is running
well and the price range is wide
enough to guarantee a satisfactory
profit production costs do not seem
SO important. Now, however, there
should be every inducement for the
farmer to know the exact cost of
growing each crop and to study the
figures with a view to the most eco
nomical operation.
II will, of necessity, be an indi-
vidual proposition. No one can do
It for him because of the varying
conditions on different farms. Nor
can anyone lay down a general prin.
ciple that will apply to all agricul-
tural conditions at the present time.
The best that the farmer can do
Will be to pattern after the merchant
who has a separate cash register
for each line OF goods and thus
keeps track Of daily sales and com
pares results with original costs and
necessary overhead expenses. The
farmer will not need a cash register
But he can accomplish the same
and by keeping a separate account
for each crop and at the end of the
year checking up his actual profit
or loss.

The very biggest help that farmers
can employ in the readjustment Of
tf,eir business to the new level OF
economic conditions is the keeping
OF accurate and reliable records ON
their expenses and receipts, say spe-
cialists OF the division of extension,
Farmers, as a class We're among
the first to experience the serious
effects of the depression which is
being felt all over the country and
some time ago 1t became Imperative
for them, as it later became impera-
tive for all business to retrench
wherever possible.
Prices have dropped, the wheels
or industry have been slowed down
or stopped, labor is out of employ
ment or being retained at reduced
wages, and the average consumer is
finding himself with less money at
his disposal.
Business in general--and agricul-
ture is included-is confronted by
what Is known as the buyers market
Instead of the demand being greater
than the supply as was true during
lllt Ndf anu lOI a. Siioii pNiA0d fhAtNi
ward, the supply of most products
is now greater than the demand.
The result is that the market is now
in the buyers favor.
This speedy reversal from one ex-
trtrne to another has naturally been
responsible for the REIMBURSEMENT
period, about which so much has
been written and through which the
country is now passing. The one
thing about it of primary concern
to the farmer OF Tennessee and the
country over, is his ability to re-
adjust his own business to the new
level of economic conditions.
No business man, worthy of the
name, attempts to conduct his bust
ness without some form of book
keeping and farmers are coming
more and more to realize the inn
portance of similar methods in ope-
rating farm. A farmer should not
be satisfied to estimate his profit
or loss at the end of the year any
more than the merchant or manufac-
turer. He should know the exact
profit he Is making and how he is
making it, or If the reverse situa-
ton Is true, he should inform MIN
sell of his exact loss and discover
