wholly attributable to reduction in
other assets, SO that In reality the re-
suit is like taking money from one
pocket and putting it in another.
The farm inventory, or property list,
offers the only practicable way Of an
swering these questions. Once the
farmer has made a complete list of all
his assets and liabilities and has bal
anced them he knows just what his
net worth is, and when he has made
SUCH a list annually he knows each
year whether he has gone forward or
back and just how much has been the
increase or decrease in the net worth
Of his business.
Detailed Instructions.
The United States Department of
Agriculture has Just issued Farmers
Bulletin 1923, entitled Farm Inven-
tories" in which are given detailed in
structions for making an inventory Of
farm property and revising such a list
from year to year. BY using the single
system described in this bulletin any
farmer can determine exactly his
financial status and lay the foundation
for a permanent system of accounting.
Without the farm inventory as a basis
no system Of accounting that might
be chosen would be of any great use
to the farmer.

ing the sows take exercise, scattering
their feed around on the floor so they
will have two hours or more of work in
picking 1t up. Another good thing
about alfalfa hay is that 1t keeps them
on their feet quite a little while. Pigs
from sows which have had plenty Of
exercise and bulky feed are usually
much stronger than those from fat,
lazy sows.

KENTUCKY COLLEGE
WAGINC FUND DRIVE
To RAISE SALARIES

BEREA, KY, Dec. 16.-Increase In
the maximum salary of $4,000 a year
paid to full professors and in the pay
of assistant professors and teachers,
and the meeting of immediate needs
of the institution and pupils, are the
aims of a campaign now under way
TO raise s1,0OO,OO0 for Berea college,
an institution founded solely for the
education of American Highlander"
from the southern states. The fund
known as "Berea College Necessity
Fund is being raised under the di-
1ection of officials and alumni of the
institution with the advice of an ad-
visory board consisting of notable men
and women from all parts of the Unit
ed States.
Berea was founded in 1855 for the
purpose of providing education for
mountaineers of Kentucky, Tennessee,
Virginia, West Virginia, Georgia, Ala
bama and North and South Carolina.
II has never charged students any tut
tion and even in the present days OF
high prices board is provided for stu.
dents at $2.75 a week and it is said
that students can live at the college
for nine months for $50 of which il
is possible for him to earn $50 by
working 10 hours week on the col
lege farm.
Earn Expenses
Twenty per cent. of the students carr
all of their expenses during the veal
and another 20 per cent use summer
earnings for school expenses. Fifty
seven per cent. OF the remainder are
partly self-sustaining. There were
2,5s4 students in Berea college las
J year.
Berea provides training OF all kinds
The mountain boy or girl can come t.
the school and learn farming, nursing
woodworking, and in fact anything
that is of use in normal life. The col
lege department trains teachers VIII

Ripping Rhymes
NORMALLY
BY Walt Mason

In all things normally is fine; ex-
in any line will bring its
punishment eftsoons, and fill our lives
with tears and prunes. When normal
pleasures we pursue, there's no re-
morse, there's naught to rue; we wake
up smiling at the dawn, and put our
bright green garments on, and think
of what a gorgeous day we had before
we hit the hay. But if we seek alb
normal fun, and with the brisk rollers
run, and pur red poison in the craw,
ignoring sMr. Volsteads law, at dawn
we leave our tumbled beds, and tie
wet cloths upon our heads, and view
ourselves with deadly hate and envy
those who travelled straight. A picnic
party in the glen, with lemonade and
potted hen: a motor trip athwart the
lea, or by the shining silver sea; some
hours of fishing in the stream, return
ing with a string of Dream; a game of
quoits behind the barn, relieved by
jest and sprightly yarn: these humble
joys are better far than tearing Vol
stead's rules ajar. Let normally our
motto be when we would have a jam
boree, and we won't figure in the news
as tinhorn sports all STEPPED in booze
and we'll live long and have renown
rejecting credit on the town.

The Indiana Road System

The Indiana road system received high praise
from body of Ohio officials who recently made
a thorough inspection in company with members
of the state highway commission.
The excellent condition of the gravel and
stone roads in all parts of Indiana impressed the
Ohio visitors as one of the outstanding features
of our system. State Senator Brand, of Urbana
who headed the Ohio commission, said You
have the best continuous roads | have ever
found"
The Indiana road system is maintained at
one-sixth the cost of the Ohio system. Our
neighboring state, according to Senator Brand,
is finding that it requires almost the entire in
come of the state highway department to pay for
the repairs of the hard-surfaced roads which
have been put down.
His argument, of course, cannot be construed
as an adverse criticism of hard-surfaced roads,
for many of the principal highways of Indiana
have been permanently improved, and the resi-
dents are glad that this is the case
He does make a strong point, however, of the
necessity of keeping the gravel roads in perfect
condition. In this respect Indiana excels many
states, and of all the counties in the common
wealth Wayne county perhaps claim that her
entire road system is maintained the best of ALL

Jones, who has given many years to study OF
the problem and is regarded by Purdue uniyer-
sity highway instructors one of the best road
men in Indiana.
All this has been done in Indiana without an
excessive tax burden The bonded Indebtedness
of the various townships for road purposes is
not heavy in comparison with the advantages of
the system, which enables farmers to transport
their products over good roads to the market,
and is also reflected in the additional value it
gives to their farms.
In passing it may also be noted that the
bonded Indebtedness of Wayne county is very
small when it is compared with the maximum
bonded indebtedness which the county lawfully
may assume.
1t is pleasant to reflect that visitors from
other states find many points worthy of praise
and emulation in our own commonwealth. The
chance visitor to Richmond and Wayne county
must also take away with him a good impress
sion when he learns that our municipal indebted
ness is less than one-half the valuation of the
municipal light plant and the Indebtedness of the
county proper is only $4,000, which is still due
on the Main street bridge.
Not the least important thing in advancing
the interests of any city county is correct
knowledge of its financial affairs Those who
believed Richmond was in bad condition finan-
cially certainly had to change their minds when
they discovered how insignificant is the debt
compared with our assets, and the low debt of
the county also is something on which we can all
dwell with satisfaction.
If our Ohio visitors could have inspected
many of the gravel roads in Wayne county and
investigated the financial condition of its cities
and towns they would have returned home with
the knowledge that the first Indiana county
through which the National road passes has an
excellent highway system and its rural commun-
tiles and big centers of population are attaining
results without piling up big debts.

America is Fighting
To Hold Egyptian Trade
(By Associated Press)

CAIRO, Oct 25.-American business
men in Egypt are fighting to retain
the trade between America and Egypt
which was developed during the war
when the nations of Europe were too
busy to attend to their foreign trade.
This wartime trade gave American
exporters a foothold but since the war
European competition has been re-
sumed.
The establishment of an agency in
Egypt of the United States Shipping
Board, followed closely by the opening
of branches of the American Express
company, has stimulated and encour
aged the American colony here. Indi-
vidual Americans have created local
American firms in association with
Egyptian business men to promote
trade with America and have created
the organization necessary to handle
the interests of American manufac-
turers and shipowners.

That real pumpkins are grown IN
Michigan is proven by the following
item in the Hartford Day Spring:

old fashioned variety; walked round d
couple of them, then sat down in the
shade of the smallest one and rested a
few minutes and got back home about
noon. We had a hundred-foot tape
measure in our pocket, but Of course
could get no correct measurement with
that. Hank said the pumpkins were
still larger at the further end of the
