Mrs. Wilkins was called to Hepp-
Mondav morning when the
Autumn is a good time to start
account keeping, according to Mrs.
Azalea Sager. state home demonstra
tion leader of Oregon State college.
By the first of the year it will be
easier to plan for 1940 as a whole.
For many homemakers, the opening
of school and the change from sum
mer to fall clothing makes this sea
son seem like the beginning of the
year.
Farm women in many Oregon
counties keep accounts as a home
demonstration project. They use the
special farm home account book
which was designed by the bureau
of home economics. It sells for 15
cents, and is obtained from the gov
ernment printing office or through
any local extension office. But any
composition book may be ruled for
use as an account book if the rec
ord-keeper wishes to prepare his or
her own forms.
To be really useful an account
book sorts the expenditures under
such separate heads as Food,
"Household Operation," "Personal,"
"Automobile," and so on. This makes
it possible to compare the expendi
tures for a given time, as food, in
one month or vear with those of
other months or years.
Expenditures are best planned be
fore spending begins, says Mrs. Sa
ger. A plan for spending is a bud
get. If household accounts are avail
able, they will provide useful facts
uoon which to base a spending plan
Without accounts, expenditures may
he estimated rather closely if the
familv members list the larger pur
chases made during the preceding
year and supplement their memories
by receipted bills. For the farm tam-
ilv. a plan for spending may be ac
companied by a plan for home-pro
duction of food.
One advantage of the bureau of
home economics' account book is
that it has pages for writing down
things furnished by the farm for
familv living. Another good feature
is the page provided for listing large
expenses that occur from time to
time but not every month. No two
months are exactly alike in most
families. So it is important m draw
ing up a plan or budget to know
which months include extra heavy
expenses, and then make a plan for
meeting them.
