To the Farmers & Dairymen:
Do you know what your cows earn you? What it has cost
you in labor, interest on investment and material to market your
crop. Was some part of your business conducted at a loss?
Could you have made more money by knowing readily the exact
relation of your different crops from a financial standpoint?
We conduct a Home Study Course in Kookkeeping for Farm­
ers. It is endorsed by County Agricultural Agent J. L. Smith
and by the most prominent and successful business men of Coos
County.
It will cost you nothing to ask for particulars. Let us mail
you something that will interest you and prove valuable.
