THE WINTER BIRDS, OF LINCOLN
COUNTY
(Artlclo 2)
There are a few summer birds
which aro sometimes found hero dur
inpr the winter. Decembor, January
and February aro called tho winter
months. Any bird seen hero during
that timo is classified as a winter
bird. If it is seen hero every year it
is called a regular winter bird while
if it is only seen on occasions it is
called a Irregular winter bird. Rob
ins and bluebirds somotlmes migrate
hero before tho close of February' but
this is' not usual. Meadowlarks wore
seen in tho meadow Just southwest of
tlo Washington school building last
Friday (January 20.) They should
not bo here at this timo of tho year
but they sometimes stay all winter.
Probably there aro other places In
the country where they aro seon this
winter. Wo would be glad to hear.
Once in a while a blackbird or a
killdeer or a robin stays hero all
vinter Wo have had blue Jays hero
In the winter but not often. These
arc all called irregular winter resi
dents. These birds live on seeds,
grain and such foods because' no bird
'h'oh i'" es n:i 'nsecto could possibly
oxlst through one of- our winters.
That is the roison w!iy swallows,
kingbirds, orioles nnd similar birds
pro never scon hero during tho win
ter months.
IN WASHINGTON
CAN YOU DO THIS?
Here's one of the sights the
Prince of Wales is viewing in
India a fakir who has to do this
daily foV two hours. He crosses his
less in front of him so that he
stands on his knees, a great bal
ancing stunt for two hours!
THE HOME TOWN IS GOOD
INVESTMENT FOR
FARMER
Last January, L. T. Rezanlna of
Sldndy balanced Ills Harm account
book and then Bont It to tho College
of Agriculture at Lincoln with tho re
quest that it bo checkod over. Tho
book immediately Impressed tho farm
accountant with Its completeness and
apparent accuracy. Mr. Rozanlna's ac
count book needed no correction.
Recently when asked if ho had made
any changes in farm plans as sug
gested by his account book Mr. Rozan
ina said, "My account book has shown
mo that oven for this western country
I should ralso more hogs. Fortunatoly
I have followed that plan this year.
Whilo I havo always milked cows,
I am milking moro this year and wish
wo could got aa many good cows as
wo could milk. In addition to tho
timoly arrival of cream checks I find
tho skim milk makes a wonderful
food for growing pigs. While such a
plan of farming mnkos" mo work more
days In tho year than I used to put In
yet I notice that my pay chocks do
not stop because I am out of a Job. I
am always busy and thoro Is always
something coming In.
"A fow, years ago wo did not con
sider poultry as of much uso In In
creasing our Income. Poultry paid its
way mighty woll last yoar according
to my rocord which shows tho follow
ing facts along that lino. Invontory
at tho beginning of tho year 140
chtckona worth $65 Inventory at end
of year 175 birds worth $75. Our
poultry house was worth possibly
$150. Not much money tied up In that
enterprise on would say. Our records
show that our family of eight used so
many eggs and so much fried chickon
thatyou might not bollovo mo so I
am not going to toll you what It was
worth. We sold, howovor, 424 dozen
eggs worth $154.48, which I consider
that much clear profit slnco tho fried
chicken nnioggs used by tho houBO
hold more than paid for tho work and
expenses of caring for tho flock. Yes,
I am sure that poultry dosorvos moro
attontlon than It gets. Wo really
ought to kcop a complete cout rocord
on our poultry evon If .feod Is cheap
"I am Interested In poultry for au
otlior reason. You know how wo havo
boon complaining about freight rates?
Well, I have found that the cost on
shipping eggs la a whole lot less dol
lar for dollar than for shipping grain
or meat Bo yo see that my records
have started mo to figuring on ways
of lowering ray coBt of production by
producing things which the frolcht
will aot at up bfor they get t
market.
"I am going right ahead keeplec a
farm account book. I want to find out
for this year what branohM of my
busiiMH art saying but.' It may part
T A 1 li r f . i . i I
nuuk iu nuuw ii. li ii m hoi paying
Its way I want to know why. Is thoro
anything I can do to make It pay Its
why? If thoro Is bucIi an unprofitable
ontorprlso shall I clvo it spocial at
tontlon or shall I cut it down ono
half or Bhall I drop it altogether? If
somo ono lino of my buBloss is away
ahead of tho othors how far can I in
croaso It without throwing my farm
ing opperatolns out of balanco? Theso
and a whole lot of othor questions
should bo answered by my accounts.
"Conditions may cnuso my business
to vary n llttlo from yoar to yoar but
aftor I hao kopt records for sovoral
yoars I shall fcol that I am on tho
right track if thoro Is steady improve
ment shown.
"How much ttmo do my accounts
take? Not vory much. I always carry
a pocket notebook anyway nnd whon
anything is bought or Bold I act it
down. At tho end of tho wook I ontor
It in tho account book. I Bupposo that
tho man who does not carry n note
book could sot his Items down each
ovoning. No sir, it only takes about
flvo minutes a week. And for just a
llttlo work I got a great deal of satis
faction in having a written history
of my farm operations and finances.
"Mrs. Rozanlnn keeps an account of
household and personal expenses. We
not only know what tho farm business
Is furnishing In tho way of an In
come but wo know whoro our money
goes becauso of family spending. Yes,
wo feol that Buch knowlodgo really
holps us to spend to hotter advantage
"Slnco I havo begun to kcop farm
accounts you couldn't got mo to give
up my account book. Funny, Isn't It?
If it hadn't been for tho incomo tax
I would not havo had an account
book. Yes, I had known for a long
timo that every business should keep
hooks and I had often wanted to know
how my farm business really stood.
But thoro had boon no ono to start
mo out until ono day I ran accross
this book In our Farm Bureau office.
Tho county agent explained tho book
X V 3' o VJ' V .0 ,53 aV v &
FRAMING THE FARMER'S FRIEND
to mo. Aftor I looked It ovor at homo
I found that It was so slmplo and easy
that anyone who really wantod to
keep an account could do so without
help."
