There nro a number of factora
which materially affect miccchh In

regarded vltbout nerloiiH coiiho

derived from farming depend very
largely upon the extent to which cer

Many other factom have their In-

un faruiH where live Hloclc Im an
important ontcrprlne, the (iiallty of
the Htock Ih vory Important. On u
majority of farina, except In tho
Month and certain of tho WcHtern
Htutua, more of tho cropa are fed to
live iitock than are field direct. On
many farina the animnln are the mar

Tho exceedingly dlvorne nature of
farm operations maken wide oppor

modern machinery n mun In expected
to do a cortnln amount of work, and

time for noma men as compared with
others to do n certain kind of work.
Work mny also be no organized that

COKUKCT
ApropoHod of tho county examina
tion of teachers, wu suggest tho fol
lowing model questions and answorB:
q. What is an electric light
plant?
A. An oloctrlo light plant Is an
antiquated mans of machinery main
tained at public oxponeo and ronowod
from time to tlmo as tho partB rust
out from dlsuHO. It Is testod out reg
ularly each ovonlng, and Immediately
shut down unloss, by accident, it,
It Ir forgotten, In which lattor caso
It may, run for an hour or moro but
Ih BUbJoct to extinguishment without
notice.
Q, What Ib an optimist?
A. An optimist is a man who,
phuiH his work with tho expectation
of using an electric current in its
production,
flueuce and mtiHt not be overlooked
on u given farm. For liiHtanoc, the
wlno expenditure of capital Ih very
important. Again, In obtaining a
good return from llvo htock the olll
clency In feeding Ih very Important.
Farm management studies show,
however, that tho farmer whopo bus
Ineiw Ih otnclont in tho four factors
outlined Ih usually uucccssful. Tho
farms that excol In none of theso r
spoctH usually fall. Those deficient
in ono or two muy succeod, but their
chances of iiur cess are greatly lesson

to voluino of huslnosH Homo of tho
moro Important factora to bo con
Hlderod nro slzo of farm, acres In
crops, tho amount of llvo stock car
rlod, tho amount of capital Invostod,
and amount of labor required In op
erating tho farm. On farms where
ono enterprise predominates, Bitch as
a specialized cotton,, fruit, or dairy
farm, tho best measure of slzo of bus
iness may bo tho acre's In cotton,
acres in fruit, or number of cowh.
Tho amount of labor required In op
erating tho farm may bo used to
good advantage in comparing farms
of different types. Twonty acres of
truck crops may, undor suitable con
ditions, equal 200 acros of grain, hay
and goneral llvo stock, both us to

A woll-bnlauced fnmi business is
that aro as good or hotter .than tho
average of tholr community in all
four of tho factors horo monttoned
Holilom full to muko a good profit.
Thus, if a farm is devoted to a typo
of farming adapted to Its conditions,
If it is as good or bettor than the
uvorago in slzo of huslnoss, yiold ot
crops, production of llvo stock, and
enlcloncy In tho uso of labor, and is
ndoquatoly and economically equip
ped, It Is almost certain to bo profit
able. Tho weakest factor Is tho ono
that ueods attention in Improving tho
business. It tho quality of tho llvo
Htock Is big, groatcr improvement in
tho furm business can usually be ob
tained by dovoting attention to de
veloping tho slzo of tho businoBS or
salo of cash crops, or Increasing lab
or offlcloncy, rather than by further
Improving tho quality of llvo stock.
