Uon, F. J. Buxton, near New!
i Bridge on Tuesday morning April '
i,'iu, nun it mivv.il w uci iciuiiYua
and friends. It appears that she
had been in usual health up until!
bedtime Monday evening when'
sho complained of having a severe j
cold. Her daughter-in-law went
to her at midnight but she said
nothing was needed. At break
fast timo "Grandma" was asleep

Farmers' Account Book
Many farmers have recently
been called upon by the income-
tax collector to show their income
during the past year. Nearly all
found it very lmrd to make a re
port that would actually show the
correct income, due to the fact
that no records were kept.
In order to do away with this
trouble in the future, Henry E.
Tweed, county agricultural agent,
has made arrangements with the
Oregon Agricultural College to
furnish farm record books free to
ull farmers who nro willing to to
operate with him in taking an in
ventory and will tollow it up
throughout the year.
The farm is like a manufactur
ing plant and records should be
kept accordingly. In order to
know what departments or crops
are making or losing money a
close account must be kept. The
most important fact in keeping
farm records is tho taking of the
annual inventory. This will show
in detail the amount of machin
ery, feed and livestock on hand,
and its value nt the present time.
In taking inventory next year it
will bo found that the maclinery
will have a depreciation from G to
M percent, varying with the kind
of implement and the care that
has been taken of it. Tho in
ventory of livestock will show an
increase in the value of young
stock, nhd possibly tho decrease
in a horse when he has passed
the useful stage.
Any of our readers desiring one
of the record books should apply
to Henry Et Tweed, Baker, Ore.
