D.—Following the re ceipt of wholesale complaints from potato shippers of the state, President John Le Coulter of the North Dakota Agricultural College, has appointed a committee of three to receive com plaints, secure the necessary infor mation on how the shipments were made, and trace the individual cars from the consignees through the sel ling agencies in the Twin Cities, Chi cago and Kansas City to the purchas ers. The committee is now at work in the Twin Cities investigating com plaints involving the Minnesota-Po tato Growers Exchange, to which organization most of the co-operative county shipping associations in this state sent their potatoes this fall. Charges are made that settlements have been unnecessarily delayed, and that, in fact, no cash has yet been re ceived for a number of cars shipped last fall: cars have been allowed to stand on the tracks for ten days or two weeks, with demurrage charges piling up daily, as a result of ineffi ciency of the Minnesota organization, and when settlements have been made, no itemization has been rendered of the various factors, such as freight, commissions, demurrage, etc., making up the cost of marketing. Practically the same charges have been made against a number of com mission agencies and private indi viduals in the four potato marketing cities of the middle west, and inves tigations will also be made of these cases. Members of the committee appointed by President Coulter are N. D. Gorman, assistant county agent leader of the Extension Division: T. X. Calnan, Barnes County agricultur al agent ,and P. F. Trowbridge, di rector of the Experiment Station. J. J. Barrett of Walcott, secretary of Medhus' New &.

D.—The average farmer with a little study can keep records so that he can make out his own in come tax report, declares Rex E. Wil lard, farm management specialist, at the North Dakota Agricultural Col lege, who has just published a book, "Simple Farm Accounts." "While many farmers are employ ing lawyers or income tax experts to make out their returns," says Mr. Willard, "they do not need any college education to make their own income tax report. With a little study, they will know what records they should keep, and they can do this work them selves. They can also keep simple records which will show them the rel ative income which they received from different crops and kinds of stock, and by comparing results with their neighbors, can determine which are the most profitable products. Mr. Willard's book takes up a clas sification of accounts under' the fol lowing divisions: Capital Investments—land values, methods of evaluating personal prop erty, livestock, etc. Expenses—labor, feed, machinery, groceries, depreciation of buildings and machinery, value of operator's labor, methods of entry for income tax purposes and the reasons for putting in certain items and omitting others. Receipts—four classes of crop sales, value of food from farm, and miscel laneous items. Income tax summaries for both the accrual or inventory method and the Cash receipts and disbursements method are included. Under the subject, "Measures of Efficiency," is taken up the size of business, number" of horses for the farm of given acreage required, yield per acre, value of machinery per acre, cost of labor and income per unit of stock. The latter part of the book carries illustrated accounts from an actual farm in North Dakota during 1920. All entries are made in the proper place and the income tax is reported, so that a farmer may follow these records through in making up his own, Income regulations to date are in cluded, and the forms used are rec ommended by the American Farm Bureau Federation, revised by the United States Department of Agri culture, and commended by the Bur eau pf Internal Revenue of the United States Treasury Department, which has charge of the collection of the in come taxes. Extensive Improvements At City Hall At Minimum Expense The folks about the city hall are putting on great airs these days. They have not only been cleaning house, but they have been doing a great .deal of remodeling, varnishing, oiling and re-decorating. The work has all been done by the regular force about the city hall, and the cost of the material is the only additional ex pense. The office of the tax supervisor, H. E. Wheeler has been enlarged, and H. E. looks like the director general of the Bank of North Dakota amid his luxurious surroundings. Mrs. Kara A. Dickinson, city auditor, has had her office enlarged and beautified. All that is now needed to make, the surroundings perfect is a bouquet of American Beauty roses on her desk each morning. Wm. F. Gettleman, city engineer, has had his office remodeled and enlarged. The old hall-way has been taken out and the unsightly glass partition re moved. The carpenter work was done by J. A. Wagner, the street superintendent and the decorating was done by Roy Gettleman, an adept at the art, who is connected with the city engineer's department. The firemen have re-decorated the commissioners' chamber and the fire laddies' quarters. THREATENS AUTHORITIES Williston, Jan. 19.—C. C. Martin, who lives about 20 miles north of Wil liston, is facing a serious charge, that of resisting an officer and threatened assault. Some days ago Martin took up about 20 head of cattle, and Deputy Sheriff Jacobson went out Monday to take them away, but was driven back at the point of six shooter. Yesterday he and Sheriff Mackenroth went to the Martin farm, only to be met in a sim ilar manner. Just what steps will be taken next is not known yet, but the officials are determined to get the cattle and to arrest Martin and, realizing that he is likely to attempt to carry out his threats they are exercising caution, both on his account and their own. COYOTE HERDS 75 RABBITS Great Falls—George Sipes, a ranch er near here, has brought in a report that, while riding his range, he came upon a coyote herding 75 jack rabbits, much as a sheep dog acts with a flock of sheep.

About 25 farmers around Wood worth, as well as others at Pettibone and Dovpr, are threatened with suit on notes of about $200 each given a company that was to put in "home" lumber yards to sell lumber at great reductions. It is claimed the com pany is now busted and that the notes have been sold to various banks. The Bank of Nome is forcing collection on the Woodworth notes. The farmers have employed counsel and will fight payment. The deal was pulled off a year and a half ago and the promoters went so far at Woodworth as to buy a site. PROFESSIONAL CARDS DR. C. J.
