AT ANAHEIM HOSPITAL FARM COST ACCOUNT SCHOOLS PLANNED It is announced from the Farm Advisor's office that the Extension Service, co-operating with the Farm Bureau, will offer a series of cost accounting schools beginning Jan. 16th and ending Jan. 20th. One day will be devoted to each of the chief agricultural industries of the county. Mr. R. V. Wright, farm management specialist of the Univ. of Calif., has some valuable data compiled on production costs for citrus, walnut, poultry and dairy enterprises, which has been charted and will be presented at these meetings. Mr. Wright has devised a simple bookkeeping system which he will assist anyone in starting. This system gives complete information at the end of the year so that the farmer can tell exactly how he came out on the farming operations and how he would be most likely to increase his earnings next year through stopping lends and then specializing on the more profitable enterprises. Mr. Wright will assist those who started books a year ago to summarize their results and each farmer kept such books should by all means take advantage of this service so that he may get the most value from his book through obtaining the fullest information possible in regard to his business. There is no charge made for these account meetings and a farmer may attend as many as he wishes.

Va., Jan. 12.—The "Old White" historic Greenbrier county hotel here will soon be no more. It is being torn down. The magnificent structure, "The Greenbrier," erected several years ago, has supplanted it and its usefulness is gone. The "Old White." In its day, was one of the most famous hotel resorts in America; its history is filled with romantics. Some famous personages of the last century visited White Sulphur Springs, and in the colonial days the "Old White" was the summer's mecca for the aristocracy of the south. It was in its barroom that the far-famed mint julep was first concocted, which was later exploited and credited to the goatee. Kentucky colonels. It was in this barroom, reached by a spiral stairway, fragrant with mint and French brandy; that the governor of North Carolina made the historic observation to the governor of South Carolina.
