Increase Return
Many faimers who seek ways
to increase returns fiom their
business usually think of expan
sion first and secondly, cutting
their costs on their operation
Both of these could increase pro
fits but often the increasing of
the volume of business does not
increase net returns. Without
careful planning and accurate
records to support any changes,
added volume could lead to an
actual decrease in net income.
Good management and the cutt
ing of cost should come first,
and then expansion should be
considered
People seem to find it easiest
to criticise in others what gen-
I erally is their own greatest
(fault Thus, the town drunkard
is usually the first to see the
Leading Citizen step inside a
saloon, and the town gossip is
usually the first to blame others
for practicing her trade
