NOTES FROM NUTTINGHAME.

NOTES FROM MNUTTINGHAME. Nuttinghame has been visited with an epidemic of sore throat. About a dozen persons among those living or employed upon the place were victims.

 An interesting system of farm book keeping has been installed at Nutting- hame, the object being to learn the ex-z act profit from each branch of the farm. Consequent there is an account for the dairy, the crops, the poultry, etc. Upon the bookkeeper' return from her vaca- tion recently she found basket of papers, each contained note on the following order :"Rec. for milk 1Oc"; '.Rec for vegetables 15c.'' During the day sums of five cents and upward were tossed on her desk for different products. Sc she arranged a row of small boxes. labelling each. tossed the milk money into the dairy box, the egg money into the egg box, etc. Then the people began to bring in bills to be charged. As there is no bank in South bury small coin cannot he had upon de mand. Consequently one day a note lay in the vegetable box "Owes stamp box BOG" the BOG having been borrowed to make change. When a condition has been reached by which the vege- table box owes the stamp box BOG the egg box owes the dairy 13c, the vege- table box owes the dairy box 40c, and MT Nutting personally owes the dairy box 1Oc of course the inference the dairy brings in the chink; put after all farm bookkeeping dosen't seem ex- tremely simple.
