THOMAS AND THE BOARD.

The total shortage of w. d.
Thomas as Treasurer Of the State
Hospital at this place is reported
bv the expert accountants employed

that these experts have charged
the sum of about $1,000, for their

A PR0FIT-sHARING PLAN.

Many large manufacturing and bus
mess concerns are adopting the profit
sharing idea as the really equitable
way in which to BRING the employer
and the employed into closer business
relations. The Boston Transcript says
a better illustration Of the principle OF
Notwithstanding could scarcely be given
than that afforded by Walter Baker &
Co.. Limited, the we'll known chocolate
manufacturers at Milton, Mass, for
the company showed its interest in the
welfare of it's people recently by en-
closing in the envelope Of each employe
a check for an amount of money equal
to 10 per cent of his or her earnings
during 1904. Accompanying the check
was a note from the treasurer which
read as follows:
1.-The directors of Walter Baker &
Co., Limited, are pleased to be able
to enclose with your pay this week
check. the amount OF which is based
on the number of days service in the
employ of the company during the
last year. 1t is recognized by the
company that your personal efforts and
interest will insure the continued high
quality of our product, thus making
our business success permanent
A similar profit-sharing plan was
put in force the year before and was
highly appreciated by the employees, to
whom the firms generosity came as a
welcome surprise. At that time each
employe received an extra weeks pay.
The amount distributed by the COM
pany for last year amounted to about
$4,000, While no announcement is
made that the company proposes to
adopt any settled policy Of profit-shar-
ing, it is safe to say that there is no
likelihood of any labor disturbances at
the large mills operated by this COM

JEWISH FARM SCHOOLS,

The Jewish Industrial and Agricul-
tural. Society, organized to administer
funds left of Baron de Hirsch has pur-
cased another farm, and will set UP an
other farm school The first of these
farms for the instruction of Jews in
agriculture was not under the Gle
Hirsch incentive. but was established
in a suburb in Philadelphia. Its sue
cess. in spite of predictions to the con-
trary, was what led the Austrian phil
anthropist to adopt farming as one of
the means to clean out the Ghetto. The
new farm to be purchased by de
Hirsch funds is on Long Island. 1t is
large enough for six families. Pennl-
less men are selected from the lower
east side of New York, and sent with
their families into comfortable houses
on their farm There they are accord
ed separate plots, given everything
needed to work with, and taught how
to make farming pay. AT the end or
one year with their profits, they are
assisted to the, purchase of farms for
themselves, if they prove capable. 1t
is the testimony of the manager of the
society that not only do east side Jews
contrary to expectation, take eagerly
to farming, but that country life wholly
changes them, so that even the Polish
Jew soon becomes to be hardly dis
tinguishable from the native farmer.

The REASON FOR THE WRECK.

Investigation shows the cause of the

opened it is alleged. by human hands
for the plain purpose of wrecking the
train. So far as the road bed is con-
cerned it appears to have been sui
ficiently firm for the high speed. The
accident must be attributed to culpable
negligence on the part Of the railway
company in permitting the possibility
that some degenerate might throw un-
noticed a switch rail that would lead
flying train into the ditch to crush
and kill its passengers. No one was
asleep at the switch. That it was open
seems not attributable to individual
carelessness. II was unguarded ana
unlocked after. That maniac turned
the lever that sent score of souls into
eternity is not a sufficient excuse. II
should have been some ones duty to
see that no one tempered with it.
One Of the reasons that railway ac-
cidents are more common in this coun-
try than in Europe is emphasized by
this latest horror. On an English line
some one would have been made re-
sponsible for the safety of the switch.
Here fast train rushes thru tangled
maze of yardaga, hammers over hun

a NEW PROFESSION.

Henry CleWS, the HOleu 4lHdilSA'ai
writer of New York, spoke before
bankers convention in Minneapolis
this week, and offered suggestion
which should lead to the establish
ment of a new professional class in
this country. He plead for more pub
licity regarding corporation business
in order that bankers when asked to
loan money on corporation securities
might be better able to judge the char
acter Of the assets on which they were
asked to take u risk. He then suS-
gested that our colleges and univer-
stiles provide a professional school for
expert accountants, whose services
could be at the disposal of creditors
and investors for making examinations
Of all corporations offering securities
for sale or loans to be subscribed.
Such schools have already been es-
tablished at New York University,
Dartmouth College, University of
Pennsylvania, and the Universities of
Chicago, California and Wisconsin. In
Scotland and England there are a
number of accountants who have pur-
sued a five years professional course
In accounting. According to Clews'
suggestion: 1.-The successful carrying
out of these ideas will imply the CO.
operation of skillful public account
ants and auditors equipped with that
thorough knowledge Of economic prin-
ciples which will enable them to form
ulate systems of classification. and
show not merely the financial condition
Of a given business, at stated time.
but the commercial facts upon which
its affairs rest and on which it's future
prospects of success must depend"
The expert accountant business is in
its infancy, but already thousands of
commercial institutions are employing
such men to systematic their office
records. The suggestion of greatest
value in Mr.. Clews' remarks. however.
should be grasped by bank directors
Here in the state of Iowa we are dis
cussing methods of more perfect bank
examinations and volumes have been
written upon the duties of bank direc-
tors in making personal examination
of the accounts of their own banks,
but all the time we have admitted that
1t is almost impossible for the aver
age bank director to detect technical
errors in an intricate set of bank books.
