FAMILY FARM INCOME Low

The average farm income for &c
farms where records were kept
by the farmer and analysed by the
Farm Management Department at
the college for the year 1881 for
this county was but $27.97. Any
one doubling that the farmer is
having difficult time at this time
can well check the above figure as
Indicative as the whole farm sit
uation in the county. A study of
small town bushes enterprises will
probably show rather low in
come.
The average farm studied had
23.8 acres in crops of which g of
an acre was in asparagus, 3 acres
in potatoes, 2 z acres in grain, 10
of an acre in miscellaneous crops,
la acres in hay, 81 acres in tree
fruits. On this farm there was an
average of Al cows, 3 of a hog
and 174 turkeys or chickens.
The sale of milk and cream av-
eraged $401.00, eggs and poultry
$4,000 and other sources of in
come which included outside labor
$4,000, sale of livestock and live
stock products, $161.0O; apples
$4,000, soft fruits $172.O0; as
paragus $1,000, potatoes $4,000.
The total receipts exclusive of
inventory increase was $2485.00,
with an increase of inventory of
$4,000, making the total receipts
$2850.00. The total expense exclu-
sive of inventory decrease was
$1883.OO and the decrease in in
ventories $4,000, which leaves a
total expense of S2823.0O. The
gross income per $4,000 invest
ment is $32.51 and the family farm
income then $27.97. This figure
does not allow them anything for
interest on the investment.
The average investment exclu-
sive of home for the &c farms
studied was 100000 and the aver
age investment per acre $4,000;
the value of machinery and equip
ment $1O95.OO.
The sale of milk and cream per
COW $77.O0, yield of hay per acre
8 LIZ tons; sale of apples per acre
$414.00, soft fruits per acre, $179;
asparagus per acre S121.O and po-
tatoes per acre $4,000.
Although in the selection of
farms an attempt was made to get
farms showing as much diversifi-
cation as possible, yet the percent
age of receipts on the 26 farms for
apples was 40.7 percent. The per-
centage of receipts for soft fruits
was 6 percent, for asparagus 2 1-2
percent, eggs and poultry 7.3 per-
cent, other sources of income IT
percent.
Types of farming which seem to
have generally lost money last
year were those with a large per-
centage of tree fruits. Generally
speaking the farm which has
shown the larger family farm in
come has been those which show
quite a little diversification, par
ticularly those having poultry and
truck crops, possibly with the tree

FINLEY GRANGE NEWS

Finley Grange No. IA met in
regular session March 25 with a
good attendance.
The home economics committee
reported that a range purchased
since last meeting had been deliv-
cred and installed by donation
labor.
The dance committee reported
! $3.50 receipts from the last dance.
Upon motion it was decided to
participate in the travelling wheel
program as outlined by the Po-
mona lecturer.
Worthy Master Clell Ashby is
to act as a committee of one to
confer with like committee from
Vale, Valley and Locust Grove
Oranges as to the ACCESSIBILITY of
using one purchasing agent for
the four Oranges.
Two vacancies having occurred
by resignation, Sister Gerards was
elected Ceres and Sister Tucker as
Flora. They were duly installed
by Brother Ayers with Bro. Will
lard Campbell acting as Marshall.
Previous arrangements make it
impossible for Valley Grange team
to confer the third and fourth de-
grees at Finley as before plan
ned so it was decided to take the
candidates to Valley on April L,
where the work will be done at
their regular meeting.
Locust Grove Degree team came
down with six candidates who,
with three from Finley, were initi
lated in the first and second de-
grees.
The work, which was well done,
was ably supported by excellent
tableaux and appropriate music.
Locust Grove Changers are indeed
live wires and exhibit the real
Grange spirit on all occasions. A
rising vote of thanks was given
them.
The attendance dollar went to
Curtis Dietman who was not pres
ent to receive it.

The all pervading spirit of this
original pioneer of jazz era has
created a new entertainment prod
uct out of players and musical
scores, for Ted Lewis does not lean
upon elaborate settings or scenic
effects.
All the external material he needs
is a backed drop, a spotlight and his
famous battered old high-hat.
Lewis is a master of moods and of
dramatic contrasts, which after all
means that he is a good Snowman.
Ted Lewis changes his show every
year. The Jubilee Show" has been
going strong since last summer.
Among those assisting the popular
band leader and his Musical Clowns
in carrying out their program of
footlight entertainment will be
Eleanor Brooks, poppy dancing star;
The Dixie -Four, melody quartet;
SNOWFALL Whittier, "a Big Man

for work. On Monday they

his shifting world. She had
failed him for Lynn.
She was not sorry, yet now
she wept. "I'n never see him
again." she thought
She loved him without ten
derness, without compassion,
without ardor, without honor or
honoring. And she had been
his enemy. Yet he was a scar
that she must carry to her
grave. There's my work, she
thought; I've that much left.
Strange, to feel so empty and
forlorn, as if something had
gone from her when for so
many years she had had moth
ing, nothing but work and mem
ories and the hope that some
day she might see recognition
in eyes grown too accustomed to
her as she now was. She had
seen it last Sarah,

He was a poet, travelling first

money. Dwight turned; the
light fell upon his worn face
and brilliant eyes. Even poets
read newspapers.
."I do beg your pardon. You're
Dwight, aren't you? David

Stupid, absurd, but a vague
comfort. Dwight's cold heart
warmed a little. He answered,

I knew how to tell you how
grateful I am"
Very Touching
Sarah stopped and kissed
her. DR.. Harding was talking
to Tom in the living room of
Sarah's apartment. Mrs. Hard
ing, an older Lynn, was talking
to the minister, wiping her
pretty eyes, trying to smile.
You can tell me by being
happy always, Lynn" Sarah
answered.
It was dusk. A little later
Tom and Lynn would go away
for their brief honeymoon week
end together.
Alone, after the Hardings had
gone to their hotel, Sarah
looked from her windows into
the darkness Of the night. She
thought: Queer he should sail
tonight.
She thought Of the thing she
had done, the loyalty she had
shattered forever for another
loyalty. She thought of the
look she had seen il David

idea of a smaller zoo having
a specimen that they did not
possess. There is competition
even in the ZOO world, and a
big ZOO is always in q state
of turmoil when q more modest
institution lands a rare ex-
hibit ethat results in lots Of
publicity.
The Calcutta Zoo did not rest
until it had arranged to secure
an American bison from the
London Zoo, which has a re-
spectacle herd Of these tabled
creatures.
AS if to prove that the SAM
bar Stag's victory over my run
down bison was a fluke, the
American buffalo from London
quickly established himself as
the boss Of the pasture-lands in
the Calcutta Zoo. This insti-
tuition has a huge moated pas
turage where water buffalo,
nilgai antelope, gazelleS, Glands
and zebras are turned loose.
On a visit to the Calcutta
Zoo not many years ago I per-
sonally witnessed this Ameri-
can from London showing his
Asiatic neighbors where they
got off. A fine big specimen Of
the American buffalo, this syn
thetic Londoner was making 1t
plain who ran things in that
pasturage. Some keepers ap-
peared and proceeded to un-
load great quantities Of fresh
green grass and green sugar
cane. The other animals drop
ned back and let the big bison,
which had established its su-
premacy, eat its fill first!
After a while that bison from
London became such a bully
that he had to be placed in a
special paddock of his own.
1 don't like to crow about it
when I happen to be correct,
but I was right in my conten-
ton that the American bison
would do well in a tropical eli
mate. I had properly evalu-
ated this animal as one OF the
truest .of the "adaptables." The
specimen I brought to Rangoon
is alive and in excellent health
to this day. I might add that
the bully from London is also
thriving at Calcutta.
