RURAL' Kycs WHEN TO SELL CROPS Farming is more than growing crops.

It is as much a business as i a store or factory. It involves all of the problems that must be solved by the merchant and the manufacturer. Perhaps reason why more farmers arc not successful is that do not meet and solve business problems of keeping cost or knowing what to plant, and when to sell their crops. Unfortunately, in most years, crop prices tend to be low when harvest has completed. That is a natural working of the economic law of supply and demand.

For today's prices do depend upon supply, and upon the number of people who want to sell, TODAY. It isn't always a simple matter to decide upon the best time to sell, and it has been our observation that the price you receive is only one of the elements that make for profits. Perhaps the experience of two Maryland farmers will best illustrate our meaning. These two men had nearly identical farms. Soil conditions and weather were about even, and both raised the same kind of cash! crops.

But Farmer always sold his crops as soon they were har-i vested, while Farmer held ori to his crops until he thought he could get top price. Both of these men kept books on their farm operations. They knew what it cost to grow crops, as well as to handle them and store them. After several years of operation, the books showed that averaged about 10 percent more money for his crops than A. But the books also showed that A had made about 10 percent more actual money than B.

It cost extra money to handle each crop more than once and it cost him interest on his money, and insurance, and there was generally something to be deducted for shrinkage or spoilage. That's why B's profits were less, even though he got more money when he sold. This is not written to advise you to sell your crop as soon as you harvest it. There are certainly times when that may not be good business--when it will pay more than it costs to hold on. But it is sound advice to urge you to keep accurate records your costs.

If you follow the simple method of comparing the money you have at the start of the year, with what you have at the end, you can easily tell) whether or not you have made money, but you may not know why. And the why is important, for it shows you where you can do better. The manufacturer who does not know how much it costs him. to, build his product, and ret it Imarket. will soon go broke unlessi he is unusually lucky.

The same thing is true of the farmer. If you want help in setting up simple bookkeeping system farm operations, why not ask iyour County Agent? Or write to either the State or Federal Dej partment of Agriculture. You will firid someone of broad experience ready to help you put a yardstick on your operations. You'll get a picture of your own work that will contribute to your success on the land. uiav Prize--A $500.00 guaranteed purse.
