For instance, he asked at one
farm house how many chickens there
were on the premises and the number
was given with prOmptness. OF the
number 100 were hens. He next asked
about how many dozen eggs were the
outcome OF the efforts of the afore-
said hens and was told that probably
fifty dozen would cover the number for
the year. This was duly entered in the
proper column. 1t was not long until
he reached another farmer who had an
even 100 hens and the same question
was asked and the answer was 500
dozen. Imagine Franks surprise when
he began to compare the reports made
by the two farmers. He says that 1T
convinced him that such statistics
would be absolutely worthless. He did
some figuring himself from the data
furnished and he is convinced that the
800 dozen man is not far out Of the
road. He says that it is poor hen
that can not turn out sc eggs in 800
Hdays-working of Sundays the same as
other days. He says that the reports
of the acreage and yield of grain in
many cases is the rudest kind of guess
work. Farmers should not fail to SEE
the Importance of correct estimate
of the products of the farm and they
should take time to figure the matter
out before the census enumeration
reaches them.

davenport Republican,
Charles Harold Wilson, con of w. n.
Wilson, Of this city. has proven himself
a hero, and the eastern papers have
given him laudable mention for his deed
which gave him the reputation. He is
a sophomore in Harvard college and
was engaged in the college sport of
canoeing on the river at Riverside.
Mass, when he saw "a little girl, about
/ 2years old. lose her balance and fall
into the water. He plunged in. not
even stopping to remove his coat and
succeeded in catching her as she arose
the first time. He swan with her to
the ehore. a distance OF thirty yards or.
more, where he sank down exhausted.
The best part of 1t all was that after the
heroic exploit he refused to give the
eastern papers his picture, stating that
1t was an act that any one would have
done under the circumstances. He does
not know who the little one is whose
life he saved. Many congratulatory let
tiers have been received complimenting
him on his, heroic action.
