WRESTLER LOSES OUT

TO KENNEDY OF HERMISTON
Grappler of Sage Brush Keeps $50

Bout.
Especial Correspondence.)

Hermiston. Feb. 5-The wrestling
fans of Hermiston and vicinity have
just cause to be proud of their sage
brush" representative of the mat in
Jack Kennedy, who Saturday night
demonstrated his ability by staying
with T.. ]. O'Connell of Portland for
one-hour, after O'Connell had agreed
to throw him twice in that time, be-
cause of being over weight.
When O'Connell left Portland he
told his friends that he was going up
to Hermiston to wrestle "rube" and
get some easy money. He got the
loosers end.
The match was supposed to have
been at $50 pounds, OConnell hav-
ing had considerable experience in
matches in small towns, took it for
granted that he was going up against
a larger man than represented so
made no pretention of making the
required weight. Therefore when he
found his man had maGe weight and
would not wrestle unless he would
give him a handicap there was moth
ing else for him to do but give it.
The match was beyond question the
fastest and classiest bout pulled of
in this section of the state Instead
of Kennedy taking the defensive as
O'ConnelI expected. he was the ag-
gressor throughout the bout and had
his man in many tight holes. o.
Connell made a lot of sport for the
audience for about twenty minutes
then he decided to pin his man fol
the first fail, but, to his surprise
when he did open up and show his
hand Kennedy was equal to the occa'
sion. From this time on the mater
was a fine exhibition of skill, Ever.
hold in the category was used by the
man but to no avail. Several times
it looked bad for Kennedy when o.
Connell secured sissor lock on MS
head, wrist lever on one of his arms
toe and body holds, grapevine and
Nelson's. Had it not been for his SUI
perb condition and strength, KENNEDY
would have succumbed.
Nor was the main bout the only
item on the program that was of in
terest. In the preliminaries Gniwit2
and Baty gave good account oi
themselves Gniwitz however, won
this match in two short falls. Baty's
heavier opponent was little toe
much for him.
w. Il. Kennedy and o. Seahorn
were matched for the second bout
and wrestled thirty minutes to draw
the first match with Kennedy SEEM
ingly having the better of it. In the
second match between these two
Seahorn took the aggressive and Sc
cured a scissor on the head and nam

unable to escape and secured the fal

The $50 fans were well pleased
with the evenings entertainment and

Charles Guy Miller, 16, wero permit

their honeymoon under the supervi-

spanked them.
Margaret and Charles were spank
ed for eloping. There was also the
additional motive of discouraging the
idea of marriage. But this idea stub
bornly refused to be spanked out. The
child lovers walled and wept and wept
and walled to such purpose that their
parents were worn down and at last
consented to the union. The Rev. ].
NJ Secrist, pastor of the Broad street
Park NJ. E. church, tied the knot.
The children eloped last week. They
were schoolinates at the Centennial

planned in the school room. Instead
of going to school last Thursday
morning, they vent to New Bruins

They had saved enough from their
allowance to pay a weeks board in

periments are conducted for the pur-
pose Of determining the best methods
OF soil tilage, varieties of farm crops.

III 1911, there were 366 men in los
counties cooperating with the central
Experiment Station OF Columbia in ex-
periments to determine the best meth.
DDS Of farming. In carrying on this
work, 5000 packages Of seed and more
than 10000 pounds of fertilizer were
used.
These cooperative experiments have
already demonstrated that alfalfa
can be successfully grown in every
county of the state.
The horticulture Investigations In
eight different districts have shown
that by proper fertilization of or
chards and timely spraying, the profits
from orcharding in Missouri may be
greatly increased.
The dairy farm co-operators on sew
en- farms in southwest Missouri have.
under the direction of the dairy de-
partment, increased their profits in
some cases more than 20 per cent.
The assistance given to farmers by
the department of farm management
in the organization and administra-
ton have accomplished in some cases
extraordinary results in increasing
yields Some of the owners Of farms
cooperating IN this work have made
the following statements in reference
to the value OF this work on their in
dividual farms:
/. The yield has been increased
at least four fold; corn from 10 to 40
bushels per acre.
e. THE financial side of my farm
ing has been helped from three to Eve

PROPER SYSTEM
OF BOOKKEEPING
Value Of Farmer Keeping account
of Farm Management Same
as Business Man.

Farmers Bulletin 511 of the Depart
ment Of Agriculture contains some in
| teresting facts and recommendation
In connection with bookkeeping on the
| farm. THAT there are over six mill
lion farms in the country which util-
ize land, labor, and capital as means
of income making" gives the author,
the opportunity to discuss the subject
of the value Of the farmer keeping an
accurate and systematic account of his
farm management the same as the
business man or the railroad mag
nate.
This bulletin Is not an attempt to
outline system of bookkeeping for
the farmer. 1t is rather discussion
OF the principles which are applicable
to accounts on the farm 1t is be-
lieved that any farmer who studies
this bulletin sufficiently to grasp these
principles will be able to devise sys-
tenn suited to his particular needs.
Two important points must be con-
sidered in an attempt at farm book
keeping. What does 1t cost to pro-
duce farm products? By. selling at
market prices. what profit is made on
them?
"The problem of the farmer is to
meet conditions on his own farm in
a way which will give him the greatest
net returns for his labor and the use
of his capital. He should receive in
terest on his capital as well as wages
for his labor, but owing to the lack OF
proper records few farmers know
what wages they actually receive.
There Is reason to believe that the ma
jority of farmers are really living on
the interest of their investments rath-
er than OH the profits of their farms
These suggestions are offered.
(1)S Consider as one unit all that
may be termed real estate, as land,
farm buildings. fences, bitches, etc,
whether the farm Is rented or owned
by the operator.
CD Do not consider that the far
mer or his family receive anything for
their labor unless they are paid in
cash the same as hired labor. II there
is surplus at the end of the year, it
Is their compensation In this way
the accounts will not be confused with
items not strictly cash
go Farm products used by the
household should not be credited to
the farm in the cash account along
with the products sold, but should be
taken care of separately. !"

The egg loss each year is enormous
