Farmers' Account Book Many farmers have recently been called upon by the income- tax collector to show their income during the past year. Nearly all found it very lmrd to make a re port that would actually show the correct income, due to the fact that no records were kept. In order to do away with this trouble in the future, Henry E. Tweed, county agricultural agent, has made arrangements with the Oregon Agricultural College to furnish farm record books free to ull farmers who nro willing to to operate with him in taking an in ventory and will tollow it up throughout the year. The farm is like a manufactur ing plant and records should be kept accordingly. In order to know what departments or crops are making or losing money a close account must be kept. The most important fact in keeping farm records is tho taking of the annual inventory. This will show in detail the amount of machin ery, feed and livestock on hand, and its value nt the present time. In taking inventory next year it will bo found that the maclinery will have a depreciation from G to M percent, varying with the kind of implement and the care that has been taken of it. Tho in ventory of livestock will show an increase in the value of young stock, nhd possibly tho decrease in a horse when he has passed the useful stage. Any of our readers desiring one of the record books should apply to Henry Et Tweed, Baker, Ore.
