H f m Farm bookkeeping is ns necessary as any other
B-i I m kind of bookkeonlnit. No Carbon county farmer
H ' W need hire n bookkeeper, of course, but lie ought
H to keep his accounts In reasonable detail and
Hf. ' know what each crop costs him and what it
' - fj brings In. The little lnbor involved in keeping
H i jB things down on black and white is nothing com-
H 'ill pared with tho values of the result, which often
H fg causes profitable changes in farm management.
H Ml Many Utah farmers arc using apodal farm nc-
H :w count books printed for this purpose. All should
H mi do bo.
H if Your American hog is "worth more" than for-
H i mcrly. Along with land values and everything
t, ft else lie has "gone up." With the price hovering
HV ' jHj around twenty dollars, the man who owns nn
Kf i 'Ml assortment of these meat animals can well put
m . ' his thumb under his vest at the shoulder and
B o 0 say "I should worry." Eastern Utah has a
K' ffl goodly number of what one might term expert
B ;J hogralsers and they like the buHiuuss. They
E -i i sympathize with the folks in town who are pay-
aing the high prices for meats which Food Con
troller Herbert C. Hoover says will remain high
, - but are sure they are entitled to have some-
R i I 'i thing coming to them after many lean years,
P 1 ' f We read of tens of thousands slain in battle,
1 t evince a momentary shudder, and then turn
, $ V away to put the joy into life. None of the ten
f thousand were ours. None was dead to us.
'M ; "Rill" Jones from around the corner, who cnlist-
Im ' ed or was drafted, is not included. The story of
m the tens of thousands killed is a faraway story.
'M Rut it is apparent that the day Is coming when
t ,'flj "Hill" Jones will bo on the firing line when let-
K ' a tors from him to his kin locally will be printed
JL I W In Tho Sun., And tho dny is coming when "Hill"
; M Jones will go "over the top," Perchance he will
'' ' . bo among the tens of thousands who may bo
fl BI killed. Then the story of the tens of thousands
K vM will be a local story. And we'll see the war In a
K jSf different light than we do now. We'll feci exact-
w ' w ly liko tliu kin of tho tons of thousands feel now
ff i whoso "Rill" Joiiosoh nro included in the casualty
' ; X lists, and which now doesn't interest us much.
, ' ' f; It's the local story of the war that will wako us
Jr . m up. We apparently won't be awakened until that
' m tlmo comes.
K? J Ono of tho well known periodicals of non
Ml Iioliticnl character says that "tho revelations
K We which Former Ambassador Gerard is making to
j W a conteniiwrary contain a terrible indictment of
S t m thoso who have weakened the intention of tho
, JJi president's words nt the court of Herlin." All of
i''jw which is not truo. If there aro those who havo
) jKf weakened the intention of tho president's words,
i l how can they be held accountable because of
HI "revelations" which Gerard Is now making "to a
Jrilf contemporary?" Since when has it been a crime
B j-Sl fi for n A"ierJc citizen to bo ignorant of niat-
M ( pJiS tora which some diplomat is keeping secret until
' tK he can profit by the "rcvelntions?" Moreover,
Pirns lf tl, "intention of the president's wortls" has
H' ' Jlf I'ccn weakened, was that weakening not due to

DEPARTURE OF CARRON ROYS DRINGS
THE WAR CLOSER HOME.
The great war in which we find ourselves is
getting closer to the people of Carbon county.
At first it seemed a faraway thing in which we
would have only a minor part, but with the Bend
ing of troops to France, the impressing of our
young men into tho army of democracy and the
constant references to America's part as a savior
of Europe, it is evident that people locally arc
beginning to realize they arc "in it up to the
hilt." The Sun hns left no stone unturned to
convince the people thnt our wnr aims are those
of humanity and civilization.
Why wo did not act for democracy during two
and a half years Is self-evident wo were patient
to a fault and hoped that the beast in the Prus
sian system was not ns black as it was painted.
Dut with the constant sinking of American ships
and the murder without warning of Americans
on tho high seas, it is patent to all of us, even
those in Carbon county who three years ago wore
inclined to sympathize with the central powers,
that wo aro helping to put down a system whose
heinous possibilities we arc just beginning to
appreciate.
As the true character of the fight begins to
gain realization tho desire to put forth every
effort to eliminate this world mennce will grip
our people and thrust apathy and vapid ques
tioning aside. Carbon county will bt must be
in the forefront of patriotic endeavor. Not
only will we send our quota of warriors to the
battle fronts, but those who remain at home
must sacrifice, pay high taxes, contribute and
work for tho Red Cross and take part in every
other patriotic movement looking to a successful
conclusion of tho great war. It that be the
spirit of all.
This morning Cnibon county's first quota
ten men departed for Camp IjwIs at American
Ijike, Wash., perhaps some of them not to return
to loved ones left behind. Godspeed to them and
a victorious campaign, wherever it may bo.
WELFARE ASSOCIATION THE KEYNOTE
OF MUNICIPAL ENTERPRISE.
The Sun along with numerous other citizens of
this community is pleased to sec the organiza
tion perfected of tho Price Welfare association,
which will likely be concluded at a meeting this
evening. Welfare association in this instance is
substituted for commercial club, the latter name,
it appears, being objectionable to some localise
of past recollections. Price Welfare association
is organized for rr.nuicipal business efficiency.
It is to concentrate on ossiblllties for progress
and will, if it fills its mission, watch for oppor
tunities and develop them into success and
growth as they arise.
The association will pool the wishes, desires
and hopes of individual members of the com
munity and weld them into a fighting, aggressive
force to attain progress. Such nn organization
is the business end of a live wire it vitnlizos
everything it touches. It turns Individual effort
into co-operative success. Just like n pllcdrivor
has no punch without nn engine to operate it, s.o
a city lacks driving force without such concerted
offort bo It called welfare association, chamber
of commerce, commercial club or what not. It
Is to industry, trade and commerce of the city of
Prico what "the office" is to a business or manu
facturing plant. It's the heart, the core, the
kernel of the enterprise.
When a city is organized in this way it is no
tice to tho world thnt the place has sufficient re
sjwet for itself to believe and work for its future.
It is willing to go out lifter its share of what
there Is to get. It is the keynote of municipal
enterprise. Also the beacon that leads the way
for city needs, development nud growth. All
good luck to Price Welfare association and its
aims in any legitimate undertaking begun.
PHYSICAL WASTE IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS
THE COUNTRY OVKK.
Now that tho schools of Carbon county are
about to open their doors once more, lot us pause
and consider the fact that 7f er cent of our
school children havo tliseased teeth, 20 per cent
hnvo diseased throats with infected tonsils and
adenoids, !J5 per cent are defective in eyesight,
10 per cent are deficient in hearing, and a goodly
percentage suffer from poor or lmprior nutri
tion, flat feet, diseases, constipation, norvous
disorders and the like.
It should be tho duty of the state to see that
its children are made healthy. Parents as a rule
do not do it they wait until "something sorl
ous" in the way of illness occurs bofore taking
action, unmindful of tho fact that by taking care
of tho "minor" ills in children the "something
serious" can bo avoided.
That "a stitch in time saves nine" is as truo
of children's diseases as of hewing trousers.
Most diseasos are preventable, and a strong hnnd
is needed to do tho preventing the state, yhon
we comprehend that diseased children are a det
riment to tho nation and not only to themselvos
and their parents, more efficient action will follow.
Ono of tho nnamolies of prico fixing ns applied
to the bituminous conl trade is tho discovery of
one railroad official that tho price named for the
grade of coal which his road is using is more
thnn 40 per cent above what ho is paying for it
under an existing contract, while a conl oporator
In tho Middle West finds that more than half
the product of his mine is being sold nt one-thlrd
less thnn tho president says he shall receive.
Tho fact is Hint the federal trade commission
could not possibly mnko an examination of coal
cosLi whicn would adequately cover the field of
production and distribution, and that the data
upon which prices were determined was so in
complete that their application will result in as
much of'hardship as of benefit.
Out hero in tho West, the Industrial Workers
of tho World havo resorted to force to accomplish
their selfish ends. A little revival of frontier
methods of handling crimo may prove as effec
tive now as in the days of the 'forty-niners.
