LITTLE "FARMER’S HELPERS
Many a farmer who thinks nothing of a
hard day’s work in the fields, dreads the
worry and sweat of keeping farm records
and accounts. Yet this work is important
and must be done.
Paying by check eases the farmer’s
load mightily. During harvesting or
planting, especially, it is so much easier
to mail a check than to go to town.
Records are easier to keep, too. Cancelled
checks, check stubs, and the monthly
statement show quickly how much was.
spent and how it was spent.
A check book is a great labor-saver
on the farm
