THE USEFULNESS OF FARM ACCOUNTS To the many obvious reasons for keepng farm accounts should be added the following one, at least under present conditions. Farmers seeking credit are being required to furnish an increasing amount of information. .\ statement of net worth as obtained from a farm account book is the basic credit statement. In addition to bcrrowei-s may be required to furnish a buget of expenses and income in order to arrive at a schedi'le of bor- rowing and repayments. Without adetiuate records of his farm business the borrower cannot do himself justice or present his application in the most favourable light. Furthermore, over a period of sev- eral years, farm account books bring were selected, the choir singing "God ia Love." Rev. Bushell preached a fine sermon and offered a beautiful prayer, mentioning the departed. The Woman's .Association met on Thursday aiteinvOu, May 16th, in the church, when eight members were present. The roll call was answered by paying of membership fees. It was decided to have "Grandmothers' Day" -xt the home of Mrs. W. Graham or Mrs. Smith on June 20th, when the grandniothers are to prepare a pro- gram and the members provide lunch. The roll call will be answered by each one exhibiting some old relic and tell- ing something of its history. A letter was read from Mrs. T. Hoggard thanking the W. .\. for their letter of sympathy. A letter was also read from VVareham W. A. inviting the A.ssociation to attend their meeting on June 12th at Wareham church, which w^as kini''^ accepted.
