OFFERS RECORD BOOKS
FREE TO FARMERS
County Agent Carroll Will Give New
System OF Accounts Without Amy
Charge

Free record books are offered
to Lynden farmers this week by H.
B. Carroll, jr., county agricultural
agent.
The book is a new system of farm
records for measuring the success
of farming. and was compiled by R.
N. Miller, who is employed by the
State College and the U. S. Depart
ment of Agriculture as a specialist
along the lines of farm records and
accounts.
The system requires but ten hours
a year to keep it, and is very simple.
1t shows the farmer the success of
his farm, as separate from the other
expenses, such as personal and house
hold. Accounts such as are used in
stores, banks, etc, are of questionab-
lie value to farmers, as in the former
instances, business is done on daily
or monthly basis. while the farm bus
iness is done on a yearly basis.
''The best measure of the success
of any farm is the financial return
to the farmer" declared Mr.. Carroll
today. The Lest measure of this
financial return is called the labor
income. Labor income is the money
left at the end of the year, after all
farm expenses have been paid, and
such expenses as depreciation on the
buildings, machinery, fences and in
terest on the capital invested in the
farm business has been deducted. The
reasons for these are plain. Build
ings, machinery and fences will not
last forever; they certainly depreciate
somewhat every year, and if the cap
ital were loaned out, it would bring
interest every year. AS rule, the
farmers do not take these things in
to consideration. Men conducting
other lines of business do.
Most farmers do not realize much
benefit from the prevailing kind of
farm account books. Double entry
systems are too complicated, and it
ems must be entered daily. Farm
ers are too busy to do this, and Mr..
Miller in designing the system has
taken this into consideration. He
estimates that not over ten hours
per year are necessary to keep this
new kind of farm accounts.
This new farm record book has
been used on a number of farms for
about four years and is giving excel
lent satisfaction. The edition is lin
tied, with an allotment of seventy
five to Whatcom County. So long
as they last, they may be secured
free by farmers who care to use them.
1t is requested that only interested
farmers apply for these books"

Legislative Bodies.

Any legislative body may be called a
congress or parliament, but different
countries have different names and
some of distinctive meaning. France
has a national assembly with two
houses called senate and chamber of
deputies; Germany has an upper and
lower house. bundesrath and reichstag;
Belgium has a senate and chamber Of
representatives; Spain has cortes and
two houses, senate and congress; Dem
mark. two houses, senate and congress;
Italy has parliament with senate and
camera di deputati, or chamber of dep
uties; Prussia, a landtag composed of
two chambers called the herrenhaus, or
house of lords, and the abgeordneten-
haus, or chamber of deputies: Sweden
a diet, with first chamber and second
hamber. All the South American re-
publics, being fashioned on the govern
ment Of the United States, have con-
gress composed of two bodies. senate
and chamber of deputies.

The Wireless Nave.

In articles on wireless telegraphy
such expressions as 200 meter wave
lengths, 600 meter wave lengths, $4,000
meter wave lengths, are constantly
used. In reply to correspondent who
asks how the length of the waves is
measured the Scientific American gives
the following simple explanation:
The length of an electric wave is
determined by wave meter The
natural wave length Of an aerial is
four times it's linear length, just as the
wave length of note of closed Or
gan pipe is four times the length Of the
pipe. and the wave length of the note
Of a tuning fork is four times the
length Of the box which is resonant
with the note. However, other consid-
erations make it difficult to measure
the wave length by a rule, are the
wave meter gives a more correct result
than can be found by measuring the
length of the wire"

SWEDEN TAKES ALARM
AT ATTITUDE OF U. S.
Government Holds Council to DIS
Cuss U-bOat Plot Exposure.

STOCKHOLM The Swedish
government has begun an investiga.
ton of Secretary Lansing's exposure
of the unneutral use of the Swedish
legation in Buenos Aires by Count
Luxburg, the German minister to Ar
gentina.
A big sensation was caused here by
the news, and it is generally conceded
that it will have a far-reaching effect
on the general elections now in prog
ress.
DR.. Branting, socialist leader and
a member of the coalition cabinet,
writing in the Social Demokraten,
says the charges against the Swedish
minister in Buenos Aires are of sex
IRENE gravity" and asks if there was
any collision in Stockholm.
The conservative newspaper Dag
b1ad calls attention to the fact that
the cipher, in which the messages
were evidently sent from Buenos
Aires must have been in possession
of the American state department.

Indian Rock,

stands was long known as the Council
rock, and there the last council of the
Lenape tribe was held in 1868, before
their departure for the Wyoming reser-
walton. According to the legend, Ted
dyuscung took his last look over the
Wissahickon ravine from this rock. A,

on the rock in 1856. This remained
until replaced in 1908 by the present
figure, the gift of Charles F. Henry Of
