Buy Or Hire?
Every year farmersare faced
with the, same prOblera. ""WII1 it
pay me to buy more equipment?
Last_year it cost me too muCh
for custom work." $o the -wheels.
In most farmers minds are turn-
ing "trier and over. Mira can be
said for both sides' `,1pro and
con."
dt has been estimated that 75.To
of the loans -made under the Farm
Improvement and Loan Aot. were
inade to purchase machinery, and
these sales have -totalled millions
of dollars,' Just how much has
each individual farmer in WS
area ire -vested in machinery .in
the. past. 10 years? We don't
know, but never have 'the imple-
ment ;dealers lived s�. high.' We
have just -entered the age of com-
plete mechanization and to most
farmers this has entailed the
spending of considerable capital
in' the last decade. VA don't be-
lieve they had much choice. Lab-
our has been more 'expensive to,
hire than custom •operated mach -
lees, and yes„even more costly
than the purchaee of many mach-
ines for individual nee.
In the April 28111,1955,,, Issue
at the Family Herald, (page 18),
S. A:Roberts, Agricultural Engin-
eer, New Bxunswick Department
of Agriculture,has one of the
most "Down to Earth"„aliproach-
'ter' to the purchase of machinery
for indieldrial usa,that we have
seen published in a Canadian
Farm Paper. •
Using a balance scale theory,

that all farm machinery -should
be weighed in this manner!

Using a forage harvester for
an example costing $2,000 and
assuming a 15 -year life, Mr. Rob -
ETAS questions -whether, as so
many of us do, an individual
fernier can afford •to own this
equipment. •
.rixed costs total $293 per
Year. This is made up of deprec-
la,tion at 15 percent, $133.93
and interest, repairs, taxes and
housing were Med at 9 percent
of purchase price ---$166.00. Thu%
as Mr. Roberts points out in his
article if you only used a forage
harvester to put up -100 tons
Of feed, the fixed costs run $2.93
per ton. This figure'cloes not in-
clude operating costieetehich could
be set at approximately .50c a
ton, phis' labour, Then if you
bought a forage hareeeter ana
only tiled, your own silo yetir
harvesting costs would be almost
$2.50 a ton or more then $200.00
for an average silo.
°adorn operators \can 'do the
Job for lege actual cost sinee their
fixed costs are divided over all
their customers, In •average oases
the cuetote operetor's bill is lege
than half the above amount for
filling a silo.
'So we suggest that if you have
been 'hiring a reliable custom op,
erator and are .considering the
purchase of this, equipment for
individeal use, look up thatieime-
ly article in Farm Engineering
of the APrif 28th Issue of the
Family Herald. You may have
-
overlooked it in the rush • of
spring seeding, but read it care-
fully, maybe even cut it out and
read it every time that you are
tempted to spend thousands of
'dollars for another piece of farni
machineisy. It could 'save you
