TOOT (Prepared by the United Rtates Department of Agriculture. )-~WNU Service When a family has decided to keep an ftemized record of household ex penses, who should keep the account? The one who does the bulk of the pur chasing, usually the wife, is generally the best person to attend to this task But so long as everything necessary to a correct pleture of the family financial situation Is obtained, It A Good Place to Kesp Accounts, makes no difference whether the ree. ords of expenditure are made by the hushand, the wife, or some other mem. ber of the household. It is practical to have one person enter all the items B80 that classifications may be uniform, When several different people In the household handle money and make purchases it 18 a good plan to hang up in a convenient place an ordinary blank book with a pencil attached to it. Then each one who pays for goods or services enn kind and cost of what has bought, Per. sonal expenses, if covered by a lump sum or allowance, are not entered the household items, The homemaker probably carries In her purse a small notebook for writing down petty cash spent. Some items are doubtless paid by check, either monthly or at the time of purchase, All these miscellaneous entries must be collected and classified in one per- manent record book to obtain a true picture of how the family money Is being used. A very good classified record of family expenditures has been designed by the bureau of home economics of the United States Department of Agri culture. It is made In looseleaf form, fo that unnecessary pages can be re- moved. The following groups of ex- penditure are ghown in the marginal index: Food, housing, operating, fur- nishings and equipment, clothing, health, development, personal, automo- bile and savings, Purchases are trans. ferred at regular intervals from the miscellaneous entries in the daily note. books to the proper heading, so that at a glance one may see what is spent for food, clothes, and so on, Anyone could make such a record out of a blank book, or, by sending fifty cents to the government printing office at Washington, D.
