Agricultural College Learns Through Practical Research Great Need of TTnlform Standard. OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE. Corvallls. Oct. S6. (Special.) That an annual inventory day should.be ob served by every farmer who wishes to attain tne highest degree of success In the business management of his plant Is the doctrine preached In an address by Dean J. A. Bexell, which was presented before the International Dry-Farming Congress at Lethbridge, Alberta, this week. "This opinion is not based on theory, but on experience," said Professor Bexell. "Last year the Legislature of Oregon made an appropriation for statistical research, and a preliminary agricultural survey was undertaken last Summer under the direction of the Agricultural College. Field agents secured about 1600 Interviews, but, valuable and varied as the informa tion is. the financial end of it is -very inaccurate and Incomplete. "In the 1600 Interviews secured a very small number reported that the facts furnished were based on actual records; a large number reported that no records were kept except a simple bank account; while the great ma jority reported that no records were kept at all. It Is perfectly evident that If an attempt Is to be made to secure annual information, a uniform ty of reports will have to be adopted, and these must be based upon a uni form system of records or accounts. "My experience has been that even where records are obtainable tor statistical purposes, they are often worthless because of the variety or classification. Every census enum erator and every survey worker will bear me out in the .statement that It is practically impossible to secure satisfactory answers to the various financial schedules in the rural census. "A system of records which could be universally adopted as what might be called a standard system must have at least three objects In view: First, to furnish adequate and reliable Infor mation to the farmer himself as to his financial operations, and cost of pro duction, for the purpose of being able to forecast results, and upon which he can base future operations; second, lv to furnish complete and reliable statistical data to the various organi sations Interested In the general up lift of rural life, and thirdly, to fur nish adequate reports upon which to base agricultural credit" TAFT STRENGTH IS SHOWN Cottage" Grove Straw Ballot Pnts Roosevelt in Fourth Place.

AN LOSER. Friends of Dead Man Knew of En. fagement and Verbal Will, bnt Relative Surprises. TACOMA. Wash, Oct 26. (Special.) Denouncing the pretensions of Miss Mary Burkett, of - Olympla, who said she was engaged to marry George F. Vance, a brakeman. accidentally killed at Alder three weeks ago and had been given a verbal and tentative will for all of Vance's property, Mrs. George F. Vance, of Portland came hurriedly to Tacoma today and had Vance's re mains exhumed. She proved to the satisfaction of the officials that she was the rightful wife of the brakeman and all his personal effects were turned over to her. Vance had never, told his fellow employes on the North Coast Timber Company's logging road he was mar ried, but had told them he was en gaged to marry Miss Burkett of 115 Tenth street Olympla. She reiterated the assertion and had several witnesses who heard Vance say he was going to will all his property to her. The fu neral was held and -Vance buried In Tacoma cemetery. Coroner G. D. Shaver retained all the personal effects and Miss Burkett was arranging to bring the necessary suit for the estate including considerable land holdings. Today, C J. Mlchelet Assistant Dis trict Attorney, of Portland, appeared here accompanied by Mrs. Vance and called on the' Coroner, and deputy prosecuting attorney, A O. Burmeister, of Tacoma. Mrs. Vance produced her marriage certificate dated in May, 1911, and the entire party with an under taker went by automobile to the ceme tery, where the grave was opened and Vance's body taken out and positively identified. This afternoon Mrs. Vance and attorney Michelet returned to Port land after receiving Vance's personal effects and it is expected she will bring the necessary legal proceedings to obtain title to his real property. Vance was born in Olympia and lived there most of his life. He is Bald to have seDarated from his wife shortly after the wedding, after which he met Miss Burkett Vance's friends were greatly surprised at today's develop ments, as none had ever heard him say he was married.
