ATTENDING TEXAS
CREAMERY ASSOCIATION
Prof. Ridgway of A. G. M. Will Judge
the Dairy Products and Make
the Awards.

Joe w. Ridgway, acting professor of
dairy husbandry of A. & NJ. College,
left yesterday for Brennan to attend
the meeting of the Texas Creameries
Association.
Mr. Ridgway has never met with the
association. He came to Texas from
the Auburn (Ala) Polytechnic Insti-
tute to take charge of the instruction
in dairy husbandry at the college, but
since he became teacher in Texas
he has always been unavoidably alb
sent from the state when the Texas
Creameries Association has had a
meeting. He is anxious to get in close
touch with the creamery men OF
Texas, as his work is in direct line
with that which they are doing.
The meeting at Brennan is to be
today and tomorrow. There will be
an exhibit of butter from the various
creameries and Mr. Ridgway is to be
the official Judge of the exhibits and
will award the prizes.

Built Rat-Proof seedhouse.

Director B. Youngblood of the Texas
experiment stations has just had erect
ed at A. & NJ. College a rat-proof seed
house which is to be used by the
agronomy department of the expert
ment stations. This building is con-
structed of strong and heavy timbers
and covered with sheet iron. Around
the entire floor of the building there
has been poured concrete, so that no
rodent can find its way into the build
ing and prey upon the seeds. There
will be one storeroom for seeds, an
other room for testing seeds. The
structure is complete and will answer
all the purposes of the station agron-
omist. Heretofore there has been no
such facilities in the department of
agronmy and the need for it was at
once recognized by Director Young
blood.

CHANGED BOOK
KEEPING SYSTEM
3. YounsbIood, Director Of Texas Ex'
pertinent Stations, Has Slmplified
and Made More Intelligent
the System.

Since B. Youngblood took charge OF
the Texas experiment stations in Sep
TENDER last as director, he has been
making an effort to improve the sys-
TEN of bookkeeping that is carried on
In connection with the work, and ii Is
believed that he has not only worked
out more simple method, but at the
same time has made the books more
intelligent.
Mr.. Youngblood and the bookkeeper
for the stations, Charles A. Felker,
have adopted the federal government
,ylan as far as 1t is applicable to the
state station records. There is sepa-
rate book kept for each of the sta
lions in the state, the main station
and the ten sub-stations. Each double
page of this book is divided into eight
cen columns for entries, and these col
umns represent expenditures for equip
ment, money paid for wages, money
for travelling expenses; in fact. every
reason for which money can be spent
on the stations is represented in a
separate Column. These entries are
kept as close up to date as are the
entries in a bank, and at any time
Chief Clerk Felker can within a few
hours give a complete and detailed
statement of the situation at each sta
ton The result is that while the au-
ditor of the state has heretofore had
to spend several days on the books,
checking them under the old system,
the new system will allow the check
ing of all the books in few hours.
With this simplified system of book.
keeping Mr.. Youngblood has put in a
new voucher system, modelled after
the voucher system of the federal gov
eminent, and this voucher system is
more complete than ever, and is more
readily checked.
If the board of directors wants a re-
port of any branch of the station work
at any time, Chief Clerk Felker can
respond with it as readily as the banks
can respond to the call of the comp
troller for a statement, and the state
ment that Mr.. Felker will prepare will
be as Systematically itemized, and will
be as easily understood as is a bank
statement.

Town Topics.

1t is difficult task to describe
what is liked best in the autumn
modes that have been exploited thus
far. There are some very pretty de-
signs and there are some very pictur-
esque ones. There are also some
others that defy description.
The worlds leaders in the matter
OF deciding upon the question of what
shall and what shall not be are un-
able to reach an agreement. There
seems to be a general understanding
that swirts shall remain close-fitting
however much certain types may sim
ulate width; long sleeves have been
decided upon as one of the perma-
nent features of fall and winter
dress; the small details are to play
more important part in the fash
ionable wardrobe than ever, hats are
to be confined to about half dozen
different shapes, with the others left
to their fate and the caprices of wom-
en- who constantly crave achange,
whether it is practical or not. But
Just here all the fashion makers run
up again stone wall-Grtek meets
Greek, as it were. And just here,
again, the acknowledged kinds and
queens of the sartorial realm branch
out on their individual ways, and IL
is question of who can persuade
the followers of fashion of the super
fitness of his or her particular mod
els.

WILL CLOSE STORES
TWO DAYS OF FAIR

]. Monroe Stewart, secretary of the
fair association. and Fred Mantey,
one of the directors, were out today
with petition among the merchants,
securing agreements to close during
the afternoons fair week. The gro
cerymen will close at / O'Clock We'd
nesday and Thursday. and the other
merchants will close at l O'Clock the
same afternoons and will open up
again at O'Clock.
This arrangement was agreed to
by some fifty merchants and met with
very little opposition. Merchants
seem to be wholly against closing ey-
cry afternoon, as they have every
right to expect abundant trade during
fair week. and would be committing
commercial suicide 10 close ain of ey-
cry afternoon during the fair as many
of the visitors come TO the city as
much to do shopping as to see the
races. they would remain at home II
they learned that all of the stores
would be closed every afternoon.
