WHAT ARB YOU WORTH
The Deputy Assessors Are Now
Abroad in the Land.
Crop Reports Desired for Informa-
ton Statistics, Not for As
sessment Purposes.

Assessor r. H. Duff has appointed 81
field deputies and those gentlemen have
commenced the work of gather ing the
valuations in various parts of Whitman
county. An effort will be made ny the
deputies to gather statistics regarding
the number OF acres of wheat, oats, bar
ley, hay and fruit trees. That infOrma-
ton ia not desired for the purpose OF
assessment, as no growing crops will be
assessed. The state bureau of statistics
has asked the assessor to compile that
information for the purpose OF adver-
Using at the Worlds fair in st. Louis,
and everyone should lend helping hand
by giving in the number OF acres of
growing grain, fruit trees, etc. The in
formation, when published, will also be
of vast benefit to the farmers themselves,
as they will be able to study the condi-
tions of supply in better light, thing
which every intelligent farmer should do
at all times.
