WHY KEEP ACCOUNTS is
4 QUESTION OFTEN ASKED

Agricultural College News Notes.
Why keep accounts Is the question
frequently asked by the farmers when
his products are sold at low prices
and he has TO pay high prices for the
things he must purchase.
Most Of the farm products raised in
Colorado are also produced in other
states and regions. Some of these
regions are better adapted to produce
these products than is Colorado. Some
states arc situated nearer TO the mar
kets that receive Colorado farm pro-
ducts. In some states these products
are produced on cheaper land. In fact
that can be named in favor of some
regions with which Colorado must
compete.
On account>of certain advantages
some products can be produced else
where cheaper than in Colorado. How
ever. some farmers in Colorado can
meet this competition. This is ac-
complished sometimes BY more effici-
ency in farm operations and frequent
ly by increased yields per acre.
To check up on the cost of produc-
ton it is very necessary TO keep re-
cord of the farm business. This VIII
tell what is happening on the farm
now. The farmer is then in posi-
ton to know where Improvements can
be made TO make the farm more ef-
ficient.
II is not too late to start that record
now. Many farmers start the record
by taking the inventory on April list,
following the farm year instead of
the calender year.
If you wish to receive book to use
in keeping record Of your farm
business, write 10 the Extension Ser
vice at Fort Collins.
Study your costs and be in a posi-
ton to compete with production out
side the state. This will go far in
helping you 10 receive a fair price for
your farm products.
