It would be wonderful to put up
the Christmas spirit ? like jars of
preserves - to lighten gloomy hours
between now and Christmas '63. But
that would take a preservative we
haven't yet found. Meanwhile, pre
serving thoughtful gifts like U. S.
Savings Bonds helps keep the spirit
from year to year.

Credit Can Be Profitable For Farmers
But Only If They Know When To Borrow
Credit can be a profitable tool
in successful farming but only
if the farmer knows when he 1
should borrow.
Farm people have considered:
indebtedness as an indication of i
poor management, points out Dr.
rtobert ?'? Johnstone, extension
farm management specialist a
tforth Carolina State Coliege.
"This attitude has large'y disa.
peared in progressive farming'
ireas," he said. ' It generally
?erognized that, ip the majority
of cases, a farm business does not
return sufficient profit to pro
"? ? ~ = i ? ;' i ? 1
vide family living expenses and
also to allow financing major ad
justments on a cash basis with
out, credit."
If credit is to be used in the
farm business, a' basic question to
be answered by the farmer is:
When does'it"pity," Johnstone re
lated. fig i:
"TheveJ3.n0 simple answer and
nearly e^ery farm situation is dif
ferent. I'Viti y, it will pay to
borrow dhen the investment made
will resflltan. an income increase
greater IHan the total added cost."
Johnstone explained that gene.
ll'jvwtn wiJ ? *
ally, th.s increased income re
ults from the new investment
?ringing about a more efficient
ise of existing resources.
He cited examples such as bor
owing money for fertilizer to
ncrease yields, or for machiner>
o get a greater output per houi
if labor, or for additional land
o utilize machinery or the tur
ner's capabilities.
"But if a farmer borrows t?
?urchase a larger tractor in or
icr to save family labor, yet he
?as no profiiable use far the la
x>r saved, it will result in a smal
er net income," said Johnstone.
Similar reasoning could be ap
?iled to the purchase of harvest
ng equipment when the farmer
loesn't have enough corps to use
t at near its capacity. The over
read costs frequently push the
larvesting cost far past the cha
"ge of the local custom operator
"In planning a business expan
iion, the owner must always con
sider the additional managerial
?equipments in operating the lar
ger busines," said Johnstone. "It
is not unusual to see a business
man do a profitable job with a
?mall operation but be unsuccess
ful after expansion."
Johnstone commented that "obr
rowing has a much greater oppor
tunity to increase profits when
the farmer has first studied his
resources and considered the va
rious means cf expansion such as
?ore land or increased business
an present land.
"He should budget each alter
native under various weather and
price conditions. Expansions bas
ed on this type of analysis have
a better chance to be profitable
for the farmer." he said.
Some 21,497 acres of Irish potatoes
were grown for sale in North Caro
lina in 1961-a decrease of slightly
over 3,000 acres over 1960.
