ing with their backs to the wall, but
hopeful, despite their four defeats,
the White Sox will meet the Reds
today in the seventh game of the
worlds series. The Reds and the
$4,000 fans who witnessed yesterday s
ten inning battle. felt confident that
the contest would be decisive one and
that before night the men of Moran
would be proclaimed baseball cham
pions of the world.
Before the game started it was be-
lieved that Manager Gleason of the
Sox would send Eddie Cicotte to face
the "red legs" 1t Is possible, how
ever, that "Big Bill James may be
Gleason's eleventh-hour choice.
Supporters of the Reds believe that

All Cincinnati is getting ready to
celebrate the expected victory of the
Reds and there was a wild rush today
to get tickets for this afternoons con-
test.
If the Sox are victorious in today's
contest the teams will have to return
to Chicago for the eighth game Thurs
day, but admirers of the Reds are con
fident this trip will be unnecessary.

Get the fire into good condition. SO

when the salt is applied the heat

will penetrate to every part of the

in less than All hour the effects of the
salt will disappear. Then brighten up

FARM BOOKKEEPING.
Dy EDGAR L.. SMITH.

Recently the country awokc 10 the
fact that II would like TO know how
much il cost to produce a bushel Of
wheat or a quart OF milk and soon
discovered that no one knew, or at
least that authorities differcd--a po-
lite way of saying the same thing.
Immediately various departments and
commissions set TO work to try their
hands at establishing these and other
similar costs, with varying results.
About the same time the income tax
collectors came along and ran into a
still more perplexing situation. They
could not collect the farmers income
tax, not because the farmer was I'M
willing to pay 1t but because he had
no idea what his income was. and ap-
parently no ordinary mortal could find
out.
The first impulse was to blame the
farmer roundly for not keeping any
records; but gradually the truth has
become more generally recognized that
farm accounting or bookkeeping is no
simple matter. 1t involves many of
the most difficult problems Of ac-
Countancy. and yet If IT is to he in
troduCed under normal farm conditions
1t must he made simple. That Is the
problem and it is no easy one To solve.
But there is a way out which has been
successfully demonstrated oil a fairly
large number OF farms. 1t is through
specialization.
Farming and bookkeeping are sepa-
rate and distinct vocations, just as
selling goods, manufacturing commod-
tiles or conduction a garage are diff
ferent from bookkeeping. ana men
who can engage in them successfully
might not he at all successful in keep
ing their own books or records.
\ good farmer Is apt to have an on.
