Advance Farm Schedule.
Farmers to be Furnished Copies Before
tbs Census Begins.

Washington, D. c., March IA. "A great
increase in the accuracy of the. census
returns from the farmers, a considera-
bic saving of the working time of the
! farm enumerators, and the removal of
much of whatever prejudices and mis-
apprehensions may exist among far
mers with regard to the census are the
important results expected by the
United States Census Bureau to follow
the use of the Advance Farm Schedule
which has been adopted and will be cir
culated, through the rural pGstmasters,
among the farmers a short time before
the actual census taking.
The employment of this advance
schedule is a distinct innovation in CEN
sus methods. 1t is the logical and
practical outcome of the. Census Bur-
eau's persistent effort for some. time
past to give the farmers a clear and
comprehensive preliminary knowledge
of the Farm census questions and to
induce themt to keep written records of
their farm operations and equipment in
readiness for the call of the enumera-
tors, beginning April Is next.
Four million copies of the schedule
will be printed, and the distribution of
them among farm owners and tenants
will be intrusted to farm enumerators
soon after they are commissioned,
about April l.
Postmaster General Hitchcock has
promised the assistance of his depart
ment in the effective distribution of
the schedules, and will issue instruc-
relative thereto to the rural postmas-
ters They will be required to address
and forward to the farmers receiving
mail at their offices the advance farm
schedules supplied them by the enume-
ratOrs.
In note to farmers on the front
page OF the schedule, Census Director
Durand states:
I'm accordance with the act of Con-
gress, the census of the population and
farms of the United States will begin
on April Is. 1910 On or soon after
that date an enumerator will call at
your house for the purpose Of obtaining
the required information regarding
your farm.
Many Of the questions which will be
asked you concerning the equipment
and operations of your farm. cannot be
accurately answered by you without
considerable thought and the making
of careful calculations or estimates
Therefore, this form has been sent to
you in advance so that you may study
the'questi0ns at your convenience and
have the answers written down before
the enumeration comes.
"You are earnestly requested to read
this form and instructions carefully to
write down the answers to allquestions
that apply to your farm, and to keep it
until the enumerator comes. By doing
this you can save yourself much time
and contribute greatly to the success Of
The agricultural census,
"Besides the information concerning
your farm, the enumerators will also
ask you the names, ages and other facts
concerning the members Of your house

URGES CHANGES IN
STATE GAME LAWS
Sp0rtSmen's Association to Send
Committee Before Legislature.
TWO GREAT OBJECTS IN VIEW
Ask That Nonresident Fishing IL
cense Be Increased SIS at Least as
There Are More Fish Caught by
Non-Residents Than Residents.

Madison.-The Wisconsin Hunters
and Fishers association will send
committee before the next legislature
to advocate changes in the game and
fish laws.
Secretary E. B. Rebholz, 495 Jeffer-
son street, has prepared a list of these
changes and the reasons why the more
important of them are advocated. Mr..
Rebholz said
1.-TWO great objects are in view.
First, we wish to give Wisconsin hunt
ers the most sport that is consistent
with the proper protection of our
game. Secondly, we want to see game
laws in Wisconsin that are made by
and for the many and not for the few
alone. And incidentally, especially in
the matter of deer hunting, we believe
that something must be done to put a
stop to the annual slaughter of human
beings" The association considers
suggestions from hunters.
1--WE are contemplating, he said,
"asking for the following changes:
The nonresident fishing license
should be increased to at least S. AS
it is today, there are more game fish
caught by nonresident fishermen
than by Wisconsinites. The license
would pay the bounty advocated on
rough fish, and would pay, too, for re
stocking our lakes with game fish.
Fishing parties in the north, it should
be remembered, live almost entirely
on game and on fish from our north
ern lakes.
The pike, pickerel and bass season
should open at the same time, May Is,
and run until March l. Under the
present law, if bass are caught be-
tween May 25 and June 1 they cannot
be taken home, but must be thrown
back into the water. Yet bass will
bite during that period, and if the
hook Injuries their gills they are GER
tain to die"

Seek to End Indian Land Trouble.

TO determine the rights of the
state Of Wisconsin to the own
eTship of some $4,000 acres of land
included in the Menominee Indian
reservation and claimed by the ma
tlonal government for the Indians,
and to stop the government from au-
thorizing the cutting Of timber on
those lands until the questions at is
sue are finally settled are ends that
are being sought just now by the
state Of Wisconsin in an investigation
and negotiation in progress in Wash
ington.
The history Of the case runs back
to 1850, when by special act congress
granted to the state of Wisconsin
title to all the state swamp lands &C
cording to the field notes of the gov
eminent surveyors, and patents were
issued by the government to the
state.
In 1854 by treaty, the Menominee
Indian reservation was created, com
prlsing a large part Of the northern
portion Of Shawano county In those
days little interest was taken in the
right of the state to these lands, but
later some of them became valuable
for the timber upon them, if for no
other purpose.
The government having included
them in the Indian reservation and
the state failing to assert or establish
a claim upon them, the department
OF the interior, which has charge of
the administration of both Indian af-
fairs and the public lands, authorized
the cutting of timber upon the lands
by private persons for the benefit of
the Indians.
This action by the government, and
an awakened interest in the subject
in Wisconsin, has brought about the
present movement to establish the
rights of the state. Governor Scho-
field first moved in the matter. Gov
ernor Davidson also has taken the
matter in hand and has Bryan J..
Castle now in Washington pressing
the claims Of the state.

MILLIONS OLIVES
An Awsul Toll Collected by Consump-
ton. Many Unnecessary Deaths.

If people could only understand
that systemic catarrh is an internal
disease that external applications
cannot cure. they would not need to
be warned so often about this malady,
which, when nelected, paves the way
often times for consumption, at the
cost of millions Of lives every year
Yet catarrh may be cured. if the right
treatment is employed.
The only way to successfully treat
caarrh is by employing a medicine
which is absorbed and carried by the
blood to all parts of the system, so
that the mucous membrane or in
ternal lining of the body is toned up
and made capable of resisting the in
lection of consumption and other
diseases.
We have a remedy prepared from
the prescription Of a physician who
for thirty years studied and made
catarrh a speciality, and whose record
was a patient restored to health in
every case where his treatment was
followed as prescribed. That remedy
is Rexall Mucu-T Tone. We are SO
positive that it will implicitly over
come catarrh in all it's various forms,
whether acute or chronic, that we
promise to return every penny paid US
for the medicine in every case where
it fails or for any reason does not
satisfy the user.
We want you to try Rexall Mucu-
Tone on our recommendation and
guarantee. We are right mere where
you live. and you do not contract any
obligation or risk when you try
Rexall Much Tone on our guarantee.
We have Rexall Mucu Tone IN two
sizes, so cents and 81. 90 Very often
the taking of one 50-cent bottle is
sufficient to make marked impression
upon the case. Of course in chron ic
cases a longer treatment is necessary.
The average in such instances Is three
81 OO bottles Remember you can
obtain Rexall Remedies in. Lancaster
only at our store, The Rexall Store.

Vacancy on Railroad Commission.

In prescribing the qualifications Of the
members of the commission, subsec-
ton A Of section 1 of chapter 1852 of

general knowledge Of railroad law;

eral understanding Of matters relating

by some lawyers is held to limit the
number Of lawyers on the commission
to one, and ]. H. Roemer has been
that member since the resignation Of
