Early in the new year is favor
able time to- begin the keeping of
some simple system of. farm ac-
counts. Most people will agree that
the greatest difficulty met in the
keeping Of such, accounts is not in
making a start nor in the amount of
work; involved but in the making of
entries as the transactions occur and
while the particulars are fresh in
the mind. For the farmer who wants
to have a yearly record of his bust
ness that will, as nearly as can be
done, show his progress in net worth
year by year and in many. cases en-
able him to see how matters can be
improved, the Division of Farm Man
agement at University Farm some
few years ago prepared a. plain, cas-;
lily understood form of farm account
book. This book has been tried out
by, several: hundred thousand # farm
ers in this and other states and has
proved thoroughly satisfactory It,
has pages for inventories, listing
with value, Of feed, supplies and seed
grain, livestock; machinery and real
estate;;ssfor receipts from J; crops,
livestock, dairy products, eggs, poul-
try and from other sources; for ex-.
pensess for livestock crops, nachin-
cry, permanent i'm provernents and all
other farm q m expenses; pages for acre
age and yields Of crops, for a sum

Pending a decision by the United

association has been unable to- add
to it's membership during the past
year. It has, reason, however, 10 be

membership of II A: and loans
amounting to $25,000, amortization

Review of the Year 1920

The Reds America has sent
Back home we're glad. to lose,
But thirsty folks are Kicking since
The courts have banished booze; y
The Navy and the Shipping Board
Have scandaized the land,
The profteers have profitized
Enough to beat the band.
The owners got their railroads back,
With broken rods and gears;
The Senate Wilson's treaty clipped
With reservation shears;
To Lansing Woody tied a can,
And otherwise his wrath
Expressed to all who chanced to
His oft -obstructed path.
The ''outlaws" tried a railway strike,
And Venus, someone said,
Tried hard to talk with Mother Earth
But Mars she. got instead;
The. sporting pages blusl1ed with
shame
At baseball players graft,
Which made the race track gamblers
grin
While fight, promoters laughed.
In politics, the Democrats
Thought Cox and Roosevelt
Could beat the Harding-Coolidge
slate,
But ever since they felt
The overwhelming avalanche
November Second, last.
Democracy's almost as dead
AS Nineteen-Twenty's past.

The decision ends a two-year fight
during which hearings were con-
;tinued from time to time. Timber
interests and settlers opposed clos
ing the line. They pleaded that such
action would be a blow to the agri-
cultural development Of the territory
and a breaking Of faith with those
who had purchased and improved
lands there.
The settlers further charged that
the road deliberately discouraged
business. They asked the state COM
mission to put the road on probation
for a year or two to see if it could
not be put on a paying basis.
The company declared that the
road has been losing money since
1914, and that patrons had decreased
from $4,000 to $1,000 They stated
that it had never been used except
as subsidiary Of the Alger-Smith
Lumber company, and that the loss
in the. year beginning July l, 1920,
would total about $68.OOO.

when he reclaimed his $50 steed,
which had blockaded five passenger
trains and six freight trains for more
than an hour, when it ambled into the
Merchants bridge, railroad span, en-
route to St. Louis.
1t cost the owner of the bridge $50
to lay a board walk to get Henry off
the bridge, but the incident caused
amusement to more than 1000 pedes-
trians and passengers.
Henry, whose home is at 819 Frank

his old home here shortly after 8 p. m.
and an hour later was discovered by

NO WILD MEN THERE
Captain Hancock Found Only Shy
Indians on Tibur0n.
Civilization Just Where. 1t Stood 100
Years Ago on Coast of South
ern California.

San Diego, Cal.-The island of I'll
huron, off the coast of Lower Califor-
mia, is not infested by cannibals of the
Ceres tribe Of Indians, but, on the con-
trary, is inhabited by Indians of a very
shy nature, who dwell in small grass
huts on the northern end Of the island.
Capt. George Allan Hancock of Los
Angeles, master of the yacht Nelero,
lust returned from 3,000-mile cruise
down the coast of Lower California and
up the gulf to Santa Rosalia, thus dis
sipates the belief that man-eating In
dams wait on Tiburon for luckless adj
venturers or shipwrecked parties.
Speaking of his trip, Captain Han
cock said:
1--WE cruised along the coast of Low
er California to the charming little
city of La Paz and then around and in
side the gulf for 400 miles. We were
all curious to stop at the much-talked-
Of island of Tiburon, on which cannibal
Indians were believed to dwell. But
although we went on the island armed
to the teeth and looked for the warlike
natives, not one Showed up to greet or
eat US. Though we saw traces Of their
habitatiOn, crude little grass huts and
other primitive evidence Of their Occu-
patton of the country, we failed to
make the acquaintance of any of the
TiburOn people"
Captain Hancock described the
pearl fishing at La Paz. Only primi-
tive methods are used, he said, and the
gems are sold to foreign dealers.
While at La Paz, the party was
greeted by a party of Mexican officials
who were there to confer with some
Americans regarding the starting OF
an American colony at Magdalena Bay,
the largest settlement within 800 miles
south of San Diego.
The attitude of residents of sections
visited by the party is to welcome
American capital and American brains
in the development of their country.
Years of revolution, said the captain,
have left their mark on GuayamaS.
Here, he said, the people have been set
back to primitive methods.
