Bovoral facts and comparisons
ot Interest can bo mado from tho ac
companying tablo. Porhaps tho most
striking fact Is brought out In the
first column of figures. Noto that
In this avorago ot tho ontlro soventy-
eight farms aftor deducting tho cash
oporatlng expenses from tho total ro
colpts but ibo cioiiurs was left as nqt
farm Incomo. Asldo from the farm
products consumed by the family
and a house to live In this $80 re
presents tho yearly return for tho
termor's and his family's labor and
Intorest on his $16,832 Invested. Or
to put It in another way, after allow
ing 6 per cont Interest on their nv
vorago investment, which is a com
paratively low rato for this soctlon,
these farmers, avoraged a minus la
bor Income of $933. Such aro the
facts for these farms In 1920, when
"the bottom dropped out" ot alfalfa
hay prices and but very few farmers
fed tholr hay.
The results for the year of 1919
whon alfalfa hay sold for $16 to $16
per ton in the stack are very differ
ent. Thoso results are shown In
Column 6 Hero Isstead ot $80 as
net farm Income the farmers aver
aged $1076, and Instead of a minus
family labor Income of $933, it was
$739 to their credit.
To analyze further the results for
1920. Out ot tho 78 farms wbb se
gregated thoso who depended entire
, ly on the salo ot alfalfa as their one
Bource ot Income There were 16
such farms In this group and the re
sults are given In column 2. Not
that these 15 farms lacked $607 of
making operating expenses with no
! return tor family .labor and no in
forest on investment In column 3
la grouped thoso farms (only 5) that
had tho major portion or tnelr in
come from the sale of dairy products.
These 6 dairy farms averaged $072
'net Income. The difference between
this dairy group and the hay group
was $1279, or over $100 per month,
which Is a very fair return for the
work in feeding and milking a few
head of dairy cows. Jo put this com
parUon on a labor-Income basis we
find over $2000 In favor ot a dairy
group.
A similar comparison of the bay
group and tho dairy group for 1919,
as brought out in columns 6 and 7,
does not show the same relation In
fact the dairy farms, which &voraged
but $230 hlghor, In not farm Income,
wiun mo nay rarms, baa only $11
more family labor Incomo. As has
been stated bofore was yoar of high
prices for hay when comparod to tho
prices ot dairy products. Of course
It is true that nrlrna for ,lnlrv n.n.
ducts wore high In 1919, but not as
niBn comparatively as bay prices.
In order not to draw conclusions
from only n fow farms In one sec
tion, tho results on 40 dairy farms In
Washington county for 1920 aro
tabulated In column 4. Here it Is
noticed that net farm Incomo was
$1622, while It was only $672 for tho
uairjr group in Mainour county for
1920. A lllcllOr InvilotnmnH. f.....
tho Washington county group' upon
which io cnargo interest leaves tho
labor incomes, howovor, quite close
in comparison,
In comparing tho hay farms with
tho dairy farms for 1920 (col. 2 & 3)
attention can be called to the total
receipts. The dalrv crntin ...II.
about one-third tho acreage and one-
....... ...a uiicgiiucu, WVr DUIO IO
take In approximately 80 per cont as
much Income na thn hnv cri-nnn In
fact, only $508 less, Their total
penses were $1787 less. Tho no
item contributing most to this ilg
difference In expense Is hired af)T,
$12f2 on hay farms and $203 on the
dairy farms, over $1000 difference.
No doubt this Is due to tho excess la
bor demanded at haying tlmo to ero
for threo times as much hay. 7ho
dairy farms being moro dlvf'rsliaii
aro cared for entirely by faOUly it
bo distributed over tho entire yiu.
Again the larger slzo of the hay ftfej
calls for $450 iuorp water tax, 4n
Item whlclr Is large enough at b,st.
averaging 25 per ceist ot tho expemea
on all groups, of farms
The Btrlklntr furl hrmiirht nut in
this study surely siyjgrts the of en
preached story "Advantages of Di
versified farming over the One C op
System " "It Is not necessary t- kill
back on the fertility reason l lo-r
ing so, but Immediate and dlr few
turns In dollars and cents show he
problem to bo purely a farm manage
ment one. And In u section as thtti
one Is, where conditions are ideal
tor alfalfa hay and corn silage, the
family slie dairy farm should become
a permanent business.
