FARMERS URGED TO KEEP hooks

The farmers need Of systematic ac-
counting was emphasized in an address
by Prof j. \. Foord OF the Ma ssic hui.
sets Agricultural college before the
Massa chusetts Dairymen's association,
Ia Harmony hall.
FSw farmers appreciate the need and
value of the careful keeping Of farm ac-
counts said Prof. Foord. Many OF them
neglect accounts altogether and do not
know the value OF their farm crops or
equipment. A start in an Accounting
system can be made with a lO-cent note
book and a few minutes time each day.
Yet the problem Of farm accounts Is a
complex one. Most farms have several
products the producing area Is large
and such matters as tho difference In

nures on the value OF land and CROPS
should all be taken into consideration

and he studied all OF the fabrics. all
OF the different things that went to
make up that particular piece OF
goods. and In that way he analyzed
every piece Of goods that came into
his hands. He was not satisfied mere

Miller. who lives on a farm west of
East Lake, was instantly killed by
Mrs. Morrone when the latter fired at
him through the door of her house.
The baby was the chief witness at
the coroner's inquest of the tragedy
which occurred at the Morrone home
a mile and half north OF Globeville.
Both Miller and the woman are
married. Mrs. Morrone was alone at
the time except for her youngest
child, her elder children being away at
school and her husband being away ut
work.
According to her story, Miller
stopped and demanded pay for ashes
which he had hauled eight years ago.
She refused and backed into the house.
She asserts that he tried to follow her
in, but that she slammed the door.

Afterward. she went along the road

be shown whether Miller was under
the influence of liquor. He had walked
