AUTO ASSOCIATION.
To Be Built Up on Lines Of the League
Of American Wheelmen.

An individual membership was finally
and definitely decided upon as q new fea-
ture of the American Automobile Associa-
ton at meeting OF its directors, held yes
terday in New York city.
DR.. Julian A. Chase, Rhode Island Auto
mobile Club, presided. The other directors
in attendance were W. e. Scarrett, Auto
mobile Club Of America: w. J. Stewart. Au-
tomobile Club OF New Jersey: DR.. w. e.
Millbank. Albany Automobile Club. and #.
e. Lewen, Automobile Club Of Philadel-
phia.
The A. A. A. at present is made up Of
clubs only. At the last meeting Of the d.
rectors the proposition to admit Individual
members was broached and Informally dis
cussed. Since the previous meeting the
opinion expressed has been 30 universally
in favor Of admitting individuals that the
decision was quickly reached.
Winthrop E. Scarrett, w. ]. Stewart and
Secretary Butler were appointed a commit
tee to report an amended constitution en-
bracing the individual membership feature.
1t is probable that the L. A. w. plan OF
organization providing for league clubs will
be adopted.
Requests for sanctions for race meets
were received from the ssachusetts Au-
tomobile Club for. the Readville track In
May. and from the Automobile Club Of SYRIA

KEEPING FARM BOOKS.
Washington, D. G.

At political convention few years
ago a favorite orator gained great ap.
plause by declaring that the farmer
was as much of a business man as
those who sit in counting rooms in the
cities. The statement was true The
farmer is indeed business man-at
once a manufacturer and merchant.
If this is so, then the farmer should
adopt, in all things, approved business
methods. Among other things he
should have such a record of his cur
rent affairs as other business men
keep, and thus enable himself to dis
cover the sources of his gains and
losses-his income, his expenditure
and his profits. How many farmers
in your neighborhood. reader are there
who definitely know where they are?
How many of them consistently keep
record and can tell at an end of sea-
son how much has been made or lost,
and how? When a city business man
closes years operations, and finds
he has only made ends meet, or finds
he has run behind, he has history OF
his affairs which he can examine to
ascertain his mistakes. If he has no
books, he is afioat, and can not tell
what remedies to introduce or what
changes to make. Without an accu-
