FARMERS THEIR OWN BOSSES
—
Govsrnmint Surveyors Say Four-
Fifths Own Their Land and There-
fore Are Independent
Government surveyors report now
that eight out of each ter fanners In
the United State» are their own boss,
while the same proportion of mechan
ics work for somebody else. The argu
ment, of course, is for the sdvantage
of Independence the farmer has, and
this ought to have great weight la any
consideration given the problem.
Out of 10.082,944 individuals en
gaged at farm work In the United
States 8,240,400 sre classified as em
ployers and Independent workers. This
means thst they either own all or part
of the plant and machinery employed
in producing their output. Not all are
land owners, but those who rent own
a sufficient proportion of the ma
chinery to give them the sense of pro
prietorship. It Is this quality that
gives them independence In action,
says the Omaha Bee.
The fanner who owns his lands or
his tools is Independent because he
works for himself, employing his own
capital ns well as his own labor.
While this condition prevails in Amer
ica the republic Is In very slight dan
ger of revolution, for citizens so sub
stantial as these are not given to re
volt. They may combine to effect
changes, but they do not strike st the
foundations of liberty.
Swallows Obey Whistle.
An expert In bird lore has been mak
ing a study of the peculiar actions of
several hundreds of chimney swallowi
that make their home In the tall chim
ney of a paper mill In Oneca, Conn.
He has discovered thst at exactly fl
o'clock each morning, when the whistle
blows at a mill three miles away the
hundreds of swallows rise from the:
chimney and fly away to their dally
hunting grounds Just as promptly ns
the hundreds of human workers an
swer the whistle. For two months, he
says, they have not been absent or |
tardy. At night the birds return in
small groups.
Accounting Records and
Business System Needed
(Prepared by th« United Stat«« Department
of Affrleultur«.}
f
The need for simple yet complete ac-
counting records by live stock shipping
assoclstlons Is emphasized in a new
bulletin published by the United States
Department of Agriculture entitled
“Accounting Records and Business
Methods for Live Stock Shipping As
sociation* ” The bulletin recommends
use of a system outlined that Is based
on the methods used by shipping as
sociations tn various parts of the coun
try and which experience has demon
strated as sound and practical, and
capable of being adapted to a wide
range of conditions and methods of
operation.
The system Is specifically designed
to meet the needs of associations that
make the shipping of live stock their
main or only business. Including asso
ciations which in addition to shipping
live stock occasionally buy feed and
other farm supplies unloaded directly
from cars and paid for on delivery.
The method can also be adapted for
use by farmers' elevators or produce
and supply associations which have a
warehouse and Carry a stock of sup
plies and which also ship live stock, It
Is pointed out
The rapid growth in live stock ship
ping associations during the last five
years has developed many problems
that have resulted In wide differences
In cost of shipping as between the
moat efficient and the least efficient as
sociations, the bulletin says. Adoption
of the accounting system proposed Is
dealgned to solve these problems.
Copies of Department Bulletin No.
1150 may be obtained free upon re
quest to the United 8tatea Department
