ness IL available. Call or write in for
one OF these books.
The object of the furnishing OF these
books by the bureau is two fold; first,
for your personal use in conducting your
farm business and, second, to enable YOU
TO cooperate, through the bureau. with
other farmers who are trying to improve
farm conditions and increase profits. The
assembled figures at the end of the year
will be of tremendous value in calculat-
ing the next years work.
There is no business that is so sadly in
need of some such accounting system as
farming. There is no other one thing
that you can do to help you improve
your farm and increase your profits that
win show such results as simple but
system OF accounts.
OF course, this only applies to the man
who wants to make more money from
his farm. However, | think most of us
are in this class. Call in and get your
account book and join the ranks of the
more progressive ones.

Circular of a Century Ago.

A Philadelphia firm of typefounders
has issued the following circular calling
attention to the Importance of the devel-
opment by the United States of domestic
supplies of essential metals:
The present state of the commerce of
the United States. arising out of the con-
duct of the belligerent powers, having
shown our wants. and pointed out the
necessity of calling to our aid such of the
natural productions of the country as
our knowledge and research might en-
able us to discover; with view to this
important object, we solicit your atten-
ton to the article of anthony. which is
essential in the manufacture of printing
types, and which has not hitherto been
discovered in this country. Bismuth
would also be great acquisition, and
profitable TO the owner of the mine. As
it is highly probable that articles, which
abound in many parts of Europe, are not
totally wanting in this extensive coun-
try, we earnestly request you TO make
the necessary inquiries in your neighbor-
hood, and, should you discover anything
which promises a favorable result, to
transmit an account of it to us.
We are, respectfully yours,
Binny & Ronaldson.
Letter Founders.
The only comment TO be made on this
statement is that the date of the circular
is Feb. H. 1909, at which time the sole
method of calling attention TO the needs
of the country in such matters was by
personal circular and pamphlet; there
was. for instance. no government clear
ing house of information with reference
to minerals such as the United States
geological survey Of the department of
the interior.
This circular was found by one of the
biologists OF the geological survey among
some of the papers of Thomas jefferson.
Both in tone and substance. this 'prepsT-
edness" suggestion relating TO the deyel-
,pment Of the country's natural resources
Is not essentially different from appeals
made more than century later.

WASHINGTON COUNTY FARM
BUREAU ASSOCIATION.
Report for Week Ending Feb. II.

! The circular letter for February has
been mailed this week to members of the
county farm bureau. This circular con-
tains the details of the test OF soy bean
and corn silage that was reported in last
weeks article. Any who wish may have
this circular upon application to the
county agents office.
Several farmers have taken the oppor-
tunity during this slack season on the
farm to obtain an interview or farm
visit from the county agent. While the
time is more or less occupied with meet
ngs and Office work, still there is time
for several of these farm visits before
spring. The county agent suggests that
you make out list of the topics that
you would like to discuss with him and
then call him by telephone or letter and
he will be glad to make an appointment
for visit to your place. This plan
works out much more economically and
efficiently than farm visits made at ran
dom and unexpected times. Please feel
free to make such an application.
The program for this week includes
meeting of dairymen at the farm of Pay
son Walbridge in Cabot on Monday to
ulSSuoo toN testifB dssutidllOH WoIhy
keeping records. etc Wednesday farm
ers' meeting is scheduled for South
Woodbury., and a similar meeting will be
held at Worcester Saturday. The main
issue at these meetings will be the work
of the farm bureau. However, other
topics, such as feeding, crops and breed
ing, will be taken up.
Sometime ago a farm account book
was mentioned in this space. Since then
over 80 of the books have been distribut-
ed to farmers who have asked for them.
| wish to call your attention to them
again. They are furnished at cost, Is
cents each, and are as simple and easy
Of operation as it is possible TO make

Tran Shooting,

Home trap shooting has become al
most as popular as shooting at CUR
clubs. and people living in the country
find 1t splendid way of entertaining
their friends. They select an open field
for their shooting grounds, and the
equipment consists simply of a hand
trap and barrel of targets. The guests
are invited to bring their guns and am
munition and spend an afternoon In
the country. And, oh, the fun they do
havei
Aside from the destinations of trap
shooting, one must consider the great
benefit of the sport to women and
young girls. As strengthened OF mus
cles and a steadier of nerves it can
hardly be surpassed. 1t also causes
women to lose all signs of timidity and
makes them fully competent to take
care of themselves in all circumstances.
