A S AN illustration that the American 
Agriculturist tries to practice 
what it preaches, we have just refused 
an advertising order amounting to $161, 
advertising a certain brand of oleo¬ 
margarine. 
American Agriculturist, like the 
great majority of its readers, is feeling 
severely the present hard times, but we 
believe nevertheless that we must build 
absolutely on the principle of right 
service to our people all of the time. In¬ 
terpreted in action, this means that not 
only must we refuse to accept any 
advertising which is not absolutely 
square, but we must go further than this 
and refuse to accept that which will in 
any way injure the farm business. On 
this principle we turn away thousands 
of dollars of advertising. We feel, and 
have said in our editorial columns that 
farmers as a matter of principle shoidd 
not eat oleomargarine or other substi¬ 
tutes for dairy products. Therefore, 
we have no hesitation in turning down 
advertisements urging our readers to 
eat these substitutes. 
Let Us Know If We Can Help 
D URING the month of September, 
our Service Bureau collected or 
adjusted accounts for our subscribers 
amounting to $697.47. Practically all 
of this was in small amounts, so that the 
number of claims involved was large, and 
it took hundreds of letters to get these 
adjustments. 
A few dollars may not mean much to 
people with plenty of money, but to the 
thousands of our folks who have to work 
for every cent they get, the loss of even 
ten dollars is a small tragedy. There¬ 
fore,' no part of the work which Ameri¬ 
can Agriculturist does gives our 
staff as much satisfaction as does the 
collection or the saving for our people of 
these Service Bureau claims. 
So if you have troubles which you think 
we can help you with, do not hesitate to 
give us the details. There are certain 
kinds of problems which are entirely local 
or personal in their nature that are im¬ 
possible for us to handle because we do 
not have all the facts. But we can and 
will give full information about laws 
affecting the farm and the farm business, 
such as trespass and hunting laws, milk 
cans, line fences, etc. Also, we will make 
an investigation and advise you as to

The Best Kind of Payment 
O PEAKING of payment for services, 
k -^ no money, no matter how welcome, 
can quite bring us the same satisfaction 
that a little note like the following does: 
“The magazine is a splendid value for the 
money, especially in the fact that it serves as a 
medium of insurance against fradulent adver¬ 
tising schemes. The rural people as a class are 
gullible, and your work along this line is a 
wonderful thing for them. Wishing you every 
success, I am.— J. R. M.” , 
Don’t Fall for Dalea Clover 
T here are some seed companies 
particularly from the West, who are 
trying to sell seeds of a new plant to the 
farmer. It is said that it will cure all his 
plant food troubles. This new crop is 
called dalea or ivoods clover. It has been 
grown successfully in some of the Central 
Western States from Illinois to Nebraska, 
especially on the rich river bottom land. 
It is said to be well adapted to sour land. 
It is an annual that grows a little more 
erect than our common red and alsike 
clover. 
It is being tried out at the New York 
State College of Agriculture, but thus 
far it has made a poor showing. The 
college reports that a number of inquiries 
have been received concerning dalea or 
woods clover and some farmers have gone 
so far as to purchase quantities at 50 
cents a pound. According to L. A. 
Dalton of the Department of Agronomy, 
this exorbitant price seems to be the 
principal asset of the crop. Better stand 
by your known seeds of known origin 
of known quality. 
What Does Your Credit Cost ? 
(Continued from page 269 ) 
accounts. Few things hurt a man’s credit 
like a lot of small bills. 
3. Furnish your banker with a credit 
statement at least once a year. A credit 
statement is a summary of one’s property 
and of his debts. The College of Agri¬ 
culture has prepared a form for taking 
a farm inventory and making out a credit 
statement that will be sent free to anyone 
who will use it. The banker who is asked 
to lend a farmer money is entitled to confi¬ 
dential information as to his financial posi¬ 
tion. The farmer needs the credit standing 
that a credit statement will give him. 
4. Borrow to make money. Borrow¬ 
ing to buy feed or fertilizer on which to 
make money is good business. The 
profit to be made will put the farmer in a 
position to repay the loan when it is due. 
Borrowing to buy luxuries is not wicked, 
but is dangerous. A hard luck story is 
poor security for a loan. 
5. Keep a bank account. The first 
step in putting a farm on a business basis 
is to open a checking account. The 
second step is to use it. A farmer who 
keeps a checking account is asking a bank 
to do a good deal of bookkeeping for him 
without charge. In fairness to the bank 
he should avoid overdrafts, and should 
try to keep enough of a balance in his 
account to pay the bank for its trouble. 
The advantages of a checking account are 
so numerous that they should appeal to 
every business farmer.
