Some classification will be helpful In
getting all items down. The following
is suggested, although many others
will be equally good Land, buildings,
cash, bills payable and receivable, live
stock, supplies and equipment make a
good general basis Equipment may
be divided into the following classes:
Wagons and pleasure vehicles, har'
ness, cultivation tools, including Dlows.
harrows, cultivators, etc, planting ma
chinery, harvesting machinery, ma.
chlnery for special crops, such as
spraying outfits. and all small tools.
The Cash Account.
This may be kept in number OF
different ways, but to be OF any great
service other than showing total re-
ceipts and expenditures, it must give
these for some of the main enterprises
on the farm.

HOW TO KEEP
farm ACCOUNTS
Simple Farm Record Should
Be Kept on Every Well
Regulated Farm
EASY METHODS DESCRIBED
Portions of a Farm May Be Operates
at Loss Without the Owner
Discovering the Fact.

Practically all farmers keep soma
records OF cash transactions and vari-
GUS other items, but few make any eff
fort to keep them In such way as TO
find out about the profit or loss in the
different parts Of their business.
The farm is composed OF number
of enterprises which must be consld-
cred as a whole, but which should be
studied In some detail Few men have
either the time or inclination TO keep
complete records of each kind OF live
stock, each field or crop, but many can
have a record that will show the re-
ceipts and expenditures on some OF the
principal parts of the business.
All accounts should be simple. A
few such records rightly interpreted
will give more valuable information
than any number OF detailed accounts
that are never studied.
The inventory.
ANY attempt at keeping accounts
must have an inventory as a basis.
This will give the assets and lab. IL
ties at the beginning and the end or
the year, so that this alone will tell
whether the business has prospered
as whole An inventory will not
show which part of the farm has made
money or which one lost it.
The following statement gives the
financial condition of a farm at the
| beginning of year:

Plans Are Under Way to
Alter Representation

The general convention OF the Pro
testant Ep.scopa. church. which meets
in New York October S. will be the
occasion Of determined effort on the
part OF the larger dioceses in the coun-
try TO change the plan OF representa-
ton in the house OF deputies. The
change will be advocated on the
ground that the present plan OF rep
resentation is unjust. inequitable, IN
democratic and unAmerican. One of
the leaders in this movemen: is the
Rev DR.. Randolph II. McKim Of Wash
ington. now the president Of the
house Of deputies. At the annual
convention of the diocese of Washing
ton which was held in May of this
year, Dr. McKim introduced resolu-
tons which were adopted and which
have served 10 start the agitation that
may come before The convention.
In the preamble to his resolutions,
DR.. McKim set forth that under the
system OF representation now exist
ing in he church. dioceses that have
less than 1900 communicates have as
many representatives and as many
votes in the house of deputies as
those dioceses which contain $4,000 oil
even 10000 communicates.
Legislation adopted under thes'
conditions" said DR.. McKim yester
day. may utterly fail to reflect The
mind of the church. and may, there
fore. fail TO command the loyal sup
port of the several dioceses. More
over. should any vital issue of Chris
tian doctrine or ritual, or ecclesiastical
polity, upon which the mind of thu
church was SHARPLY divided. be decid
