Know Trees and Do Not Be Afrale

! don't think that anybody (boy or
otherwise) who has the knowledge of
trees required by the test for the merit

to be alone In the woods with them at

know what the leaves do; and what
makes them green; and how the san

wood tissue is formed; and how the

winter-when you know such things

AMANDA eusTAFsON, OF
TOFTE, PASSES AWAY

When but a child Amanda Gustaf-
son came with her parents to Tofte,
where she lived until three years ago,
when after a short stay in Duluth,
she left for Detroit, Mich, to join
her brother While there she faith
fully served the u. S. Government,
for which she received their appre-
citation and recognition. Last spring
she returned for a visit with her
parents and to seek our invigarating
climate and thereby regain her lost
health. But as she failed steadily
she was taken to the Nopeming
sanimarium in a. last effort to break
the hold of tuberculosis. She had
been there but few weeks when her
mother was summoned to her bed
side. On December 11th, at the age
of 10 years, she quietly breathed her
last, and December 18th she was
placed i'm the vault at Park Hill
cemetery at Duluth.
She leaves besides her parents, Mr..
and Mrs. ]. Gustafson, three sisters
and three brothers. They have our
sincerest sympathy in their berave-
ment.

STATE CAPITOL News
BY Vance Chapman.

Do not be surprised if Charles A.
Lindbergh of Little Falls is again the
pick of the Nonpartisan League for
governor. 1t CONS from fair author
ity, though without official backing
that the former congressman still
has the gubernatorial bee and will
not be averse to Nonpartisan recog-
nation again when the proper time
comes. Of course, he will file as a
Republican, although he has been
everything but loyal to this particu-
lar brand of politics since entering
public life. Lindburgh, it will be
remembered, was the Nonpartisan
League candidate for governor a year
ago, but he failed to connect. How
ever, despite a bad handicap in the
shape of a fool book on the war and
some anti-Catholic activities while
in Congress he finished with a trife
over 100000 votes to his credit Gov.
Burnquist, who distanced him for
the Republican nomination trotted
under the wire with a credit Of
nearly 100000 votes. One of the
chief features of the League end of
the political game to date has been
the absence of gossip concerning
those who will represent it in the
next scramble for public offices. Its
newspapers and it controls sixty or
more scattered over the state, have
been unusually silent regarding can
didates and this even extends to
those who control it's internal affairs
Early in the year talk ran to Oscar
Keller of St. Paul, who succeeded the
late Congressman Van Dyke, but
Keller, it is understood, would pre-
fer to remain a congressman. Mayor
Cic Power of Hibbing is another who
it is said has many League admirers,
but from all accounts he, too, is not
anxious to make the race with
League backing. All this sprobably
is responsible for the Lindburgh
rumor, though it has some authora-
tive backing in the statement of
friends that Lindburgh thinks he can
make the ripple this time, 1t is
known that Lindburgh is very close
to Townley and that he enjoys the
confidence Of the League inner cir
Gle. A point made by one Lacquer
is that the Democrats will not par
ticipate in the Republican primaries
to any great extent this time and
that the League candidate will also
have the benefit Of big Republican
gubneratorial field.

County Farm Bureau
Column
Edited by County Agent

From the item in this column last
week on the value of ice in cooling
milk and cream, there was omitted
from the account of Mr.. Isaacson's
ice-house the explanation that water
was poured at intervals into the pit
during zero weather, so as to form
when frozen a solid block of ice.
In the January 3rd issue of "The.
Farmer, on page "a, will be found
an interesting article on the use of
galvanized iron pans in making ice
on farms where a supply can not be
obtained from lake or pond The ar
ticle in question contains diagrams
and instructions for making the pans.
Farm Inventory
I A. farm inventory taken at the
beginning Of each farm year will
show the profit or loss on the farm
for the year and the farmers net

showing the value of the farm, in
! Guiding buildings and other improve-
| ments, the value Of each head or
group of live stock, the value of each
machine or tool, the value of pro-
ducts for feed or for sale, the value
of materials or supplies on hand, the
| amount of cash on hand or in bank,
accounts owing to the farmer and
accounts owed by the farmer to
other people.
AS it is desirable to know how the
total capital is invested, it is we'll
to divide the inventory into parts
or divisions, as follows: Real estate,
live stock, machinery and tools, feed
and supplies, bills receivable or debts
owing to the farmer, cash, and bills
payable or debts owed by the farmer
In ruling the paper to be used for
the inventory it is an advantage TO
make enough columns so as to show
inventories for at least two years on
the one page. This will require nine
| vertical columns. Head the first COL
unn property and make it wide
enough to allow room for the descrip-
tion of the items: The second will
be for the number of items and will
not need to be wider than to allow
room for the figures. The third will
be for the value of each head Of
! stock or article The fourth for the
total value Of the several items in
cluded in the third column. The
fifth column will carry only the
totals for each Of the parts or lii
visions as, for example, the total
value of the Live stock, etc. The
sixth, seventh, eighth agnd ninth
columns correspond to the second to
the fifth columns and are for the
second yearly inventory, where the

only the first five columns will 5e

| Now, while the evenings are still
I long, is a good time to take the in-
ventory. If the boys or girls are at
tending school and are far enough
advanced, let them help, and so get
some practical application of the
i arithmetic they have learned in the
school room. In estimating values
lit is wise to be fairly conservative,
allowing for depreciation where such
exists but considering also the cost
of replacement.
