Assume that a farmer has a farm in come of and that his farm in vestment is Interest on this at per cent is tluti. The difference between this amount and or represeuts his labor income. If his net income is only 1 then he has no labor income and. is working for nothing. Farmers should keep sullicient iccords ot their im-iuess to -enable them to determine their labor income.

This means taking an inv entorv at the opening and closing ot the vear and keeping a record ol tie- expenses and receipts. If a. farmer is not making ordinnrv wages, in addition to a fair rate of interest on his in vestment, he ought to know it, and Hon take steps to learn Why and to correct the trouble. On the other hand, some farmers are making more than good interest on their investment and wages for the time which they put in. If they are not making as much money as they would like to, it may be because their investment i too small and the time they actually work too limited.
