Full Text
A farm accounting school was conducted at Economy Thursday evening by the county agent, J. L. Dolan. A problem dealing with farm affairs was given out and all entries pertaining to it made in the farm accounting book developed by Purdue in connection with the United States department of agriculture, and approved by the commissioner of internal revenue.
While some of the entries were out of line with recent quotations, the practice given by the problem was valuable, and each of those attending the school took an extra account book home with him, to use in keeping his farm accounts in the future.
Those in attendance were: Vernon Marshall, Frank W. Jordan, Paul H. Cain, Harold B. Manning, Kenneth Cain, Harold M. Fouts, George A. Manning, Walter Cain, Edgar J. Manning and Frank C. Cain.
Several others came too late to get in on the instruction, and were considerably disappointed.
The school was held in the M. E. church and at noon a 50 cent chicken dinner was served by the Ladies' Aid, which the class greatly enjoyed.
