rhe Crrdit Side of tfttf Farm Led-
Too-. many fanners nre inclined to
grunible.OYer the lnck of cash receipts.
from the farm, but they nerer dre;mi
of giving the farm credit for th sup
plies irsea fronvit by the fannlv, and
why not? If they fill a salariea-r posi
tion in a store or office they would soou
discoYer that the cost of . living was a
greater bug-bear thau the lack of cash
now is.
I am', acquainted with a farm valued
with stoefcand inipliments at $5,000.
. It it an upland farm with fifty acres
of pond plough laud and the remaining
forty acres in fairly good pasture "land.
1 he buildings are plain but comtno
dious, and iu good repair. Tbe family
supported on this farm average about
eight and the furnishing of th
wants of the family is made of the first
-itn-portaueir and what they do not need
is sold, lhe cost for htbor runs from
230 to $350 a year. A small herd of
Jersey cows are kept and two or three
Poland China sows that are bred for
two litters a year; two brood nlars and
a driving horse make up the live stock.
As the' heifer calves are raised, there is
usually a cow or two to sell each year,
a horse or colt and from. ten to twentj
pigs.
About half tbe farm is kept in grtin
and clover, and from five to twenty
acres are sown in wheat each fallyjtnd
five to seveu in oats each spring, to f ur
nisli food for growing stock.
Tlir-e acres are devoted to garden
and truck patch, and 15 acres to coi n
and potatoes.
There is it permanent pasture of blue
rass containing twenty-five acres near,
the bum und hog house divided into
ma.ll lots 'for th i purpose of keeping
the Yariou kinds separate. It is the
policy of the owner of this farm to buy
no food but a few tons of bran and a
few hundred of oil meal each year, but
to keep stock enough to consume what
is grown.
The cash income from the farm is
from various sources., the sales includ
ing each year's live stock, from one to
tluve huudred bushels of wheat, po ta
me, sweet potatoes clover seed, hay,
butter, fruit and usually a surplus from
the garden a:.d poultry yard. From an
inspection of the book I find that the
siles from this farm have in someyeai
of drought and short wheat been only
viet wren four and five hundred doiUrs.
4nd iu the more pr.Wperous years the
iiave amounted to nearly one thousand
iollars. I w;iS mot" interested in lhe
.red its given the farm for what it fur-
uiiUied the family, lhe items which
fie given were as follows :
"Kent of h-ais.- and outbuilding-?-, at
?1G a mouth, -00. he--p family horse
it l a week for theyear, 52. Livad-
ii'ill-, ?JO. aU.ea, mcuiuiug nam-.

1507; and a- the iterest at 0 p r ceui
on the S5,000 investedjwould bef?300.
it will be seen that these amounted o a
little over ; ten per cent."
prom many vears experience keep
ing accounts w.th niv farm, I do not
oelieve that a single item in the above
statement is charged at too hi- h a rate,
and tire owner ol the farm should sell
it and rent as good a-house and keep a
norje and cow, and live in as god style
and as comfortable as he now does, he
would likely pay out twice as much as
. s the interest he would get for
ins monev. and the chances iire he
would not find as safe an investment
