Farmers are Urged
to
Keep Accounts
t'v united Press.
Washington May 13. Mr. Ameri-
can Parmer C. I A.; that's what the
Initod States department or agricul-
ture Is endeavoring to make out of
tho ti lltt- or tho soil. An ui to date
farmer is almost equal to a Certified
Public Accountant Ho determines the
cost income and profit ot each Indi-
vidual enterprise on. tho farm. He
knows about the Taylor l-Jl'liciincj
Kysleui or something like It to deter-
iiiini! the management and uso of man
lalior liorso lahor and farm machin-
ery. The cost of living on the farm
is figured out in detail and savings
discovered through the uookkeoping
records.
Farm coHt accounting is a science.
Tho department Rives It considerable
Md iition. Mr. Farmer is ailviBed that
commercial cost accounting will not j
necessarily do for the farm. The thlug
which distinguishes it from ordinarv
tuiBiness is that tho farm in addition
to business and factory combined Is
a home. Ami the home finances arc
so involved in those of the tnrm that
It Is necessary to use care and thought
to avoid confusing the farmer's per-
sonal business as a man with his bus-
iness as a iarmer. He may make
a profit in his farming opera-
tions and still bo falling behind by rea-
son of his high personal and living ex-
lo uses; or he may not lie making two
per cent on his investment and yet
forgo ahead by keeping down personal
expenses.
The department of agriculture poim-
vrt out in lis luteBt bulletin that by
l.rcping complete farm cost records;
theso conditions can te shown In their
true light and the farmer if he Is n
('. P. A. enabled to discover tho wealt
spots In his business organization.
Would you like to know the "factors!
cif profitableness" in rarming? Prof.
Hpillman Bays they are:
1. Low real estate prices.
2. Farm products of classes defic-
ient In supply.
11. Magnitude of the farm business
measured either by land farm or
amount of labor required.
4. High quality in products.
5. liepntatioii of the producer; ap
plies especially to tho production of
pure breeding stock.
0. Advantageous marketing.
7. Productiveness of animals kept.
8. Largest yield with relatively lit-
tle labor and fertilizer.
0. Low cost of production. (In-
volves goo.! farm organization.)
10. Stability of profit depends on
the staple character of tho product
The country is passing through the
third serious epidemic of hog cholera
according to the department of agri-
culture. This year's loss of swine up
to dale Is estimated at ll'J to every
lUiiO which exceeds last year's heav
lofs cf no per thousand. Probably
more than !it) per cent of the loss was
from cholera. In dollars this losi
amounts to the immense sum of $?.'-
OOu.ftou. Tills is the third serious epidemic in
thirty years. The' first period reach
ed its climax in 1S86 to 1887 and the
ratio was 134 per thousand head. The
second outbreak developed in ISflti and
lasted until 1807 at the rate of 144 per
thousand. Iowa was the worst suffei-
er of the present epidemic which be-
gan in liril lost over 1800000 swine
more than a fourth of the entire num-
ber in the state. In southern states
usually the heaviest losers from hog
i holers the disease has abated Eonin-
what but has Increased greatly In the
northern states. The tendency of the
three epidemics has been in a general
way to move as n wave from south
and east to north and west. A reliable
serum and strict quarantine are tho
inly measures known with which to
fight the disease successfully.

MORTGAGE
i LAW VALID
Oklahoma City May 13. The statu
cf Oklahoma cannot be held liable to
pay the mortgage registration tax on
re.il estate securities given the school
land department according to a deci-
sion of the supreme court Tuesday
handed down by Justice Turncv. . The
action of District Judge Taylor of Ok-
lahoma county in granting the man-
damus to compel County Register )f
Deeds Cornelius to accept for filing a
mortgage for looo presented by the
school land department upon which
the real estate mortgage tax was not
.paid is affirmed by the high court.
The court also incidentally overrules
the objection to tho validity of tho
mortgage tax law by holding that it
waa not a revenue measure and there-
fore was not rendered unconstitu-
tional by reason ot having originate I
In the senate or not having been pass-
ed a sufficient number of days before
adjournment of the legislature.
The mortgage iu question was given
to secure a loan of ?1'Hi0 from the
permanent school fund and when pre-
sented to the register of deeds of Ok-
lahoma county It was turned back be-
cause the mortgage tax had not bee-i
paid. The commissioners of the land
office them instituted mandamus pro-
ceedings to compel the register of
deeds to file the Instrument without
payment of the tax.
The court holds that the permanent
school funds are property of the stato
and as such are exempt from taxation
under the Oklahoma constitution.
