I , LuttOion Not An II. m of Expense In Cost Aeeountlrs; In farm cost account" r7, tlon of the soil is r" J i s the cost columns by oiuterent ex pense items, such as plowusg, har rowing, and cultivation; so tuat the tillage necessary in the prepa ration of the seed bed and any subsequent cultivation or Intertu lage are more or less - expensive farm operations. Fertilizers alno Appear as as item expense, in eluding r JwSV cost of the mater ials, and otner costs sucn as inter est -charges and costs Involved in getting : tne -reruiusera appnea. Many - expenditures on one crop help to benefit succeeding 'crops. The cultivation of corn" leaves tiie land weed free for the small-grain crop following, fertilizer applied to wheat ' helps ' the growth of the grass as well, while the roots . and organic matter left by the grass crop, plus acoumlated nitrogen u a legume is used, leave material for the com to feed on. . : To be entirely " adequate, any system of cost accounts should r i.ie f t, i a 1 c r j t ty ctn r r i ',1 a cao rot Le i v: .u u i, but tu y a;e verj rci 3 r i U.at.
