Living Costs on Farm

A bulletin issued by the Department OF Ag-
,riculture describes phase of the cost of living
(which sometimes is overlooked. 1t follows:
Many farm is yielding at least a small prof
lit, when, according to strict bookkeeping tally.
lit seems to be losing proposition. This paradox
.is explained by the facts brought out in bulle-
tin just issued by the department, entitled "Val-
;ue to Farm Families of Food, Fuel, and Use of
House" These items namely, food, fuel, and
shelter, which every farm furnishes to the farm
family without money cost, are the factors which
Istrct bookkeeping does not take into account and
which constitute the difference between profit
and loss on the farm which seems to be losing
money when in reality it is breaking even or per-
haps making little profit.
The facts brought out in this bulletin were
gathered by survey of a thousand families rep
.resenting widely separated sections in IA States.
Figures were gathered covering the value of all
food, fuel and shelter, itemized to show what
part was bought and what part furnished by the
farm.
It was found that the average annual value
of meats consumed per family (other than poul-
try was $107.25; of poultry products, $554O;
and Of dairy products, 1886. The quantity of

Russians Open
New Offensive
With Success

fETROGRAD. via London. Feb. IL.
Although a general character OF ac-
uVity Is reported along the Russian
front. the only developments of more
than local and temporary importance
are the Russian advance in the Stripa
region. southeast Of Isebroff. where
the Russians succeeded in capturing
heights commanding the district in
which runs the main railway line be-
tween the ChodOroy and Stry rivers.
ana the occupation by the Russians
OF The heights east of Tchemerine.
The progress in the latter district
which is between RevnO and Lutsk. is
another sign Of the resumption of the
Russian offensive which came TO an
abrupt end a month ago. when the
Germans apparently succeeded in
erecting such firm fOrtificatiOnS that
iurther attempts at an advance on
the part Of the Russians became
waste Of energy and ammunition.
II Is considered significant that a
new and more formidable Russian Of
fensiye Is being launched against the
same positions. and with initial sue
cesses This Is explained by most Of
the military observers as due TO tho
RuSsi7u artllerY which recently mas
shown marked Improvement on am the
fronts.
The Germans. evidently surprised
by the fierCenoss Of the new Russian
onslaught which promises 20 extend
20 general initiative along the whole
front have been forced al several
points In Galicia To- retire TO second
lines of defense.
