ADEQUATE APPROPRIATIONS

to enable him to meet what he believes to
be the obligations of the department to the
country. The Secretary anticipates por-
ton of his plan of reorganization in the
estimates for the forthcoming fiscal year.
He says that the aggregate sum asked for in
his estimates must not be measured by what
is past, but bywhat great agricultural coun-
try should do toward sustaining, protect
ing and promoting a calling which lies at
the foundation of its prosperity and
power"
The division OF statistics, the character
and value OF its work, is dwelt upon at some
length. Of the crop reporting system,
he says:
While approximate and valuable (it) IS in
danger of becoming discredited by the popular
acceptance of its results as exact in precision
and absolute in authority. 1t should be remem-
bered that they are not the conclusions Of a
thorough census, though they may be far bet
ter than the work of poor census. that they
are the consultations of local estimates of
agricultural experts and are intended as foil
to the interested, biased and untruthful state
ments that spectators issue to mislead their
victims

CHANCES HERE AND THERE.

Says an old and experienced athlete "This IS the
season OF the year when young men who are fond Of
athletics ought TO listen sound advice IN regard to
bathing But OF course they won't, for they think
they know It all After sprint or game Of ball on
hot day. they will go OH and take cold showcrbah
before they have cooled off, practice which Is always
dangerous and often fatal. The intelligent athlete
INDUCES In such folly but having taken the lIghtoSt
possible sponge TO remove the perspaton allows
himself to cool oil gradually. Bathing is good
