VALUE OF FARM PRODUCTS.
Census Bureaus Statement Concern
ing Method of Ascertaining 1t.

Census Bureaus Statement Concern
ing Method of Ascertaining 1t.
Washington, D. c., March IA
Inquiries have been made of the
Census Bureau whether farm pro-
ducts should be valued by farmers,
in replying to census enumerators,
at the general wholesale prices or at
the actual prices obtained by the
producer. 1t was pointed out by the
inquirers that many farmers sell
proportion of their eggs for breed
ing, at much higher than the regu-
lar price. Others sell part or all of
their milk, butter and cream, at re-
tail. Quite a number sell pure-bred
livestock Of various kinds at more
or less fancy prices. The Bureaus
correspondents are of the opinion
that If sales are quoted in this way
in the census reports, the results
might be somewhat uncertain as a
basis for the average market prices.
Responding to these inquiries,
Census Director Durand states that
in forming its inquiries and instruc-
lions with reference to the value of
domestic animals and fowls, the Cen
sus Bureau must necessarily follow
the lines laid down in the law gov
erning its action. That law requires
the Bureau to ascertain the number
and value Of animals and fowls. The
value sought is not the value of some
particular class of animals or fowls,
but of all animals and fowls. 1t is
the amount at which the animals and
fowls can be sold. Good pure-blood-
ed animals will sell for more, and
thus have a greater value, than the
poor animals. Where there are many
the average will be
higher than where the opposite con-
dition of affairs prevails, but, as a
matter of fact, the pure-blooded ami
mails are so thoroughly distributed
that they left no appreciate influ-
ence upon the average published by
the Twelfth Census, except in the
case of the young colts of the state
of New Jersey.
No appreciate influence on the
average price or value of eggs, milk
or butter is observed in consequence
of the practice mentioned by the in
quirers. The high-priced eggs. milk,
butter, ETC., are found about as much
in one part of the country as in an
other. The average which the CEN
sus will publish Is not that of par
ticular class of eggs, but of all eggs
produced. 1t is the same for all ami
mails, fowls and animal products.
The relative number and value of
the animals and products to which
specific attention has been called
does not exert, for the country as
whole or for many of the states, an
influence sufficient to make the av-
erage published by the census mater
tally different from the average mar.
ket prices.

YAKIMA POLICE RECKLESS.
Keep in Good Physical Condition
Chasing the Gay Jack Rabbit.

Chasing the Gay Jack Rabbit.
Yakima, March 14.-If the pres
ent system of keeping the police out
in the rural districts is going to be
a regular order, it may become nee
essary to supply the patrolmen with
high topped rubber boots.
Joe Lancaster said yesterday, that
while returning from Selah he no.
ticed a pair of rubbers sticking in
the mud of the road. Stopping his
buggy he pulled them out of the mire
and was about to deposit them on
the side of the road when he noticed
several brass buttons sticking in q
barbed wire fence. Upon examina-
ton he found that the buttons be-
longed to a member Of the North
Yakima police force. Joe made an
effort to press them on Patrolman
Chase, whose beat lies in that direc-
ton but the latter said they did not
belong to him. There is no doubt in
Lancaster's mind that some patrol
man was either chasing a jack rabbit
or practicing slack wire walking.
Like Rural Districts.
The police are having great fun
in the rural districts these days.
One was found at the lower end of
the 700 block with several dozen
children following at his heels agape
with wonder as they tried to learn
whether there was circus in town
or whether he was a veteran of the
late war. The little youngsters had
never seen a policeman before so far
were they removed from the center
of the city.
A policeman leaves the station at
6 O'Clock in the morning and never
returns to it until 6 o'clock in the
evening. The town could burn up
In the meantime but he would not
know of it. Miles from any human
habitation these guardians of the
peace of the sage brush can be found
scattered anywhere between the CEN
ter of the city half way to Zillah or
Selah. They carry their lunches
with them and heat their coffee by
burning the sage brush which can
be found in profusion a few miles
from the city.
When the pocket telephone sys-
tenn is perfected it will be found a
convenient service to the North Yak
ina police. They will then be able
to communicate with headquarters

CARE OF INSANE RAISES ISSUE
Thirteen Are Transferred to Asylum
and Two Claim Their Liberty.

AHHOcCu hTO 1FtulSIcTFCu I'd Asylum
and Two Claim Their Liberty.
Olympia, March 14.-The recent
transfer to the Medical Lake hospi-
tai for insane of thirteen insane con-
victs from the penitentiary, two of
whom claim their sentences have ex-
pired, provoked request from Hos
pital Superintendent Semple for an
opinion from the attorney general on
the situation.
What shall do with the patients
after their sentences expire?" he
asked. The attorney general has
considered the mass of state laws re-
lating to custody of insane and GRIM
inal insane, and decides that it is the
duty of the hospital authorities to
keep the convicts until they are or
dered released by the board of con-
troll or some court.
To the board Of control the attor-
ney general says that with respect
to convicts who went to prison and
became insane later, they are to be
kept at the asylum until they regain
their sanity or die. If sanity is re-
gained before their prison sentence
expires, the board will order them
transferred back to prison. As to
those insane when committed to the
penitentiary, Ii they become sanei at
the hospital, the fact must be report
ed to the board, which will order
them returned to prison, from which
they may seek discharge under the
new law specifically covering these
criminals in whose defense a plea of
insanity was raised at the time OF
trial.

OWEN MORAN
 RESTED MOORE
 IN 6 ROUND 60

Philadelphia, Sept. 29.-Owen Moran won from Pal Moore5-in their fight at the National A. c. last night. It was an exciting bout, which the Eng lishman won by his superior ring craft and hard hitting ability
 It was rough throughout. The last three rounds were a slugging match. Moore fought low and nearly lost the fight in. the third round when he foul ed Moran. Moran's punches had more steam and his footwork and headwork were better. Moran's eye was partly closed and Moore's face was marked up
 The pair got off to a slashing start in the opening round. Moore worked the body while Moran contented him self by sending in hard crashes to lthe. face. There was little to choose, and the round was fairly even.
 Moran had all the better of the second round. He worked his jab to the face of the local boy with deadly popped over right swing to the jaw.
 The third round saw the big argu- ment over the fouling incident. Moore hit Moran low. and the Britisf1er sank to his knees, his face showing his agony. The referee helped Moran to his corner andN at first made mo- tion as if the fight had been awarded to Moran. But the crowd wanted to see more of the contest and as Nor an agreed to waive his right to foul and go on the bout was resumed.
 In the fourth round Moran drove stiff lefts to the face, Moore swung left to eye They jabbed, and Moore hooked left to mouth. It was Nor ans round. In the fifth they banged away at the body. at close quarters Moran swung left to neck and Jolted the local boy with quick little hooks
 At the finish of the round Moran swung three hard lefts to jaw Nor an held his advantage in the sixth and at the finish landed a hard left %n Ia

 We accuse the Republican party or breach of faith to the nation in en- acting a tariff law, but not such as it nromised by which duties were to be measured by the difference in the cost of production, but such as was best calculated to build up great fortunes for a favored few.

A Japanese Anthem.

The majority of national anthems are not conspicuous for beauty. either of words or music. The only one com posed by a musician of the very first rank is the Austrian anthem. for which Haydn is, respo nsible. And in no country has the composition of a really great poet been adopted except in Nor way. where Bjornson's stirring lines beginning ''Yes, we love this country - serve as the national anthem. The Japanese have daintily worded an- them which Captain BrinkIey trans lates as follows:
 Until this grain of sand,
 Tossed by each wavelet's freak.
 Grows to a cloud girt peak,
 Towering above the land;
 Until the dewy flake
 Beading this blossoms gold
 Swell to mighty lake
 Age upon age untold,
 Joy to joy manifold
 Add for our sovereign's sake.

New York, Sept. 2e.-The biggest surprise of the real opening day of the eastern football season was that there were no surprises. All the big teams are in good form.
