That's because you're not letting ActiveRecord see those attributes.
Take out this line:

attr_accessor :value, :start_date, :end_date

You should already have these columns in your table from your
migration. attr_accessor is when you want your object to temporarily
keep track of data that is *not* stored in your table.

Hope this helps,
