The Panama Canal cost $375,000,000. This is a vast sum, but is not as great as the amount which will be spent this year alone by the Bell Telephone System tor new plant and equipment. " The total investment in the Bell Telephone System is now more than three billions of dollars. It took forty-one years after the telephone was invented to build up the first billion dollars in Bell System plant investment. The second billion was added only six years later and it required only four years more to add the third billion. At the present rate of increase the fourth billion will be added in less than three years. These figures indicate the tremendous forward strides being made in telephony. They show as nothing else could the way in which the Bell System is meeting its obligation to the American people to give them the best and most complete telephone service possible, ILLINOIS BELL TELEPHONE COMPANY BELL SYSTEM One Policy * One System • Universal Service ® WouldYou buy the same make of carAgain? 87S% of Buick owners (practically nine out of every ten) answer "yesw-*a greater degree of owner loyalty than any other leading make of car can claim* Owners know car value!

This operator, W. J. Doug&n, tells the following story: "When I started fanning I began keeping a simple cash account, but soon found that it was not sufficient accounting for (arm purposes. Such a record did not<^- OVERTON & COWEK» Buick Dealers r,m. Harrard,m. CrystalLskStOL take Into consideration the vital (actors of Improvements, growth of livestock or depreciation. "Since 1910 I have kept a complete account on the accrual basis. The accounts, however, are no more than any farmer can easily keep. The outstanding benefits from keeping such as counts might be listed as follows: The Wif It Works "1. Income tax reports made easier. --Accurate and dependable income tax reports can be made from the yearly accounts. By keeping them on file I am always ready to satisfy the tax Inspectors. "2. Accounting makes possible a budget system.--With the accumulated data of the past years, I can make out the budget for the coming year. The Income being fairly stable, the budget problem is to adjust the expenditures. If one branch of the business will need extraordinary expenditure such as new machinery, there mast be a cut in some other branch, inch as building or livestock purchased, or fencing. "3. Accounting gives a true basis for credit.--Especially has accounting meant for me larger credit and happy relations with my banker. With a complete financial statement before him the banker can Intelligently determine what credit I should have. With a full knowledge of the farm profits in the past, I know what credit I should accept. No farmer or business man should accept credit from his bank unless he is able to put the money Into productive Investment, and his margin of profit assures the ability to repay the loan within a reasonable time. 4 "For the farm this reasonable Ume cannot be three or six months. The farm turnover is too slow for that. A. helpful and Just period of farm credit for working capital mast be from one to four years. "There is another benefit from accounting-- the benefit of knowing whether one Is going np or down. By extra sales one might be flush of money and buy heavily, thinking he is coming out ahead, but in reality he Is sacrificing the future. On the other hand, one might feel pinched, and have little money to spend, but In reality he is laying up capital." The bankers Agricultural Commission has suggested the following form of farm credit statement, indicating the records necessary to be kefit: SUGGESTED FARM CREDIT STATEMENT (Adapted from blank used by Federal Reserve Bank, Chicago) One Of The First Important Factors In Farm Accounting Addr.sa Date of Statement lOniahumMlua: ArvomtiDnlU. ........ .fca ........
