Farm Accounting
A large number of bankers are rec.
ognizing the Importance of inven-
tories financial statements and farm
accounts and are encouraging the
keeping OF records among their farmer
patrons. Not few insist on imam
cial statement from the farmer before
making loan, just as is required OF
other business men. Such statement
not only acquaints the banker with
the financial status of the farmer but
also brings the farmer face TO face
with conditions on his farm and calls
attention to opportunities for improve
ment
In many states county bankers asso-
Citations are being organized with
agricultural committees. In New Jer-
sey every county is thus organized.
Ohio has a representative of the agri-
cultural committee in every county in
the state. Wisconsin has added thir-
teen agricultural committees to it's
county organizations. In Arkansas
educational trains have been run in CO
operation with the railroads, the Col
lege OF Agriculture. and others for
stimulating interests in better farm
ing methods In Oregon the Bankers
Association employs field secretary
to devote his entire time to carrying
on educational and agricultural pro-
grams In Kentucky special plans
have been developed for coordinating
the various organizations interested
in agricultural development. Key men,
bankers. have been appointed in sixty
five counties An annual income OF
5000 is provided and field secretary
employed
1t will be seen that the efforts Of
the Agricultural Commission and the
committees of the various states, in
cooperation with the colleges Of agri-
culture, have been to formulate work
able programs. The field for work
appears unlimited The spirit of the
bankers and the colleges is superb and
effective results will be accom- lished.

the beginning there were number
Of states that had no agricultural
committees Others were inactive.
We now have agricultural committees
for each state with the exception of
two, and these have promised to ap-

Banker Influence
The attitude of the bankers is not
that of attempting to tell the farmers
how to farm. but rather to aid in
bringing about conditions that will
help the farmer to help himself. The
farmer who produces. the agricultural
college that is attempting to improve
the quality of farm products, and the
banker who furnishes the capital are
endeavoring to put their heads to-
gether and perform team work. A
representative of one of the colleges
of agriculture recently made the state
ment that the bankers could do more
than the colleges for the advancement
Of agriculture The banker is in posi-
ton to influence the type Of agricul-
ture practiced by the farmer patrons.

In some localities farmers seem to
be prejudiced against bankers, due
largely to misunderstanding. There
is no better way for relieving this
strained relationship than by getting

or for their mutual interests and for
the community.
IL agriculture is to develop it is nee.
essary to maintain on the soil men and
women who will put as much intelli-

that's backed by printers ink

wherever we may go to learn
about the values that the people

It seems to me most cruel
in this happy day an time, to
waste our precious energies IN
advertiser CRIME. We print
disgustin' details under head
lines, bold an black, which help
to boost the devil and his
method of attack!
Which leads to the conclusion

did. would leave US feelin' bet
ter-if the papers KEEP it hid!
To advertise the evil when old
Satan strikes blow, is to stock

I hope to see the day arrive
we'd welcome it, I'm sure-when
