Governor Mann does not say this,
for he believes proper respect TO

days.
That Ex-Governor swanson will get

Practically every paper in the State

Tnero has been some discussion about

TICKLING REPORT
Farmers Throughout State Say
Fruit, Grain, Grass and Vege-
tables Crops are Extraordinary

Reports showing great increases in
the crops of the State, including fruits,
vegetables, grains ana grasses, being
received daily by officials of the De-
partment of Agriculture.
Assistant Commissioner Owen said
Monday that although he had been
identified with the agricultural inter-
ests OF the State for more than thir-
ty years--and the agricultural laws
show how well and successfully he
has been identified--he had never seen
q time when the prospects and general
outlook was better.
1--WE sent out 200 or more requests
to the good farmers in all the counties
of the State recently and asked them
TO give us acurate and conservative
reports on crop conditions in their
county and section" said Mr.. Owen.
I'm the letters were inclosed blank
on which we asked thnt reports be
made on grains, fruits. grasses and
vegetables. The reports have been
coming in steadily and 1t has been
most gratifying to note that in each
county and section there have been
material increases, which viii great
ly swell the States agricultural re-
ceipts.
When all the reports we sent out
have been sent back we will compile
a bulletin showing the conditions this
year as compared with those of last
year and previous seasons. 1t should
be an interesting bulletin and show
conditions OF which every one In the
state will doubtless feel proud"
The bulletin will probably be is
sued the latter part of this month or
the middle of August
