Citrus Crop Will be Estimated Guam
titativeIy

The citrus crop will be estimated
quantitatively hereafter. This an
nouncement was made by Nat C.
Murray, statistician to the Bureau of
Crop Estimate, in speech before the
Citrus Seminar at the University of
Florida recently. Growers will well
come this change since they have new
er had an unbiased estimate of the
number of boxes that the crop will
make. The Bureau has formerly
made its estimate in percentages.
Private concerns have estimated the
crop in boxes heretofore, but for the
benefit of certain individuals.
The first estimate will be published
in the November crop report. C. C.
Hare, field agent for the Bureau in
Florida, says that special inquiry
will be sent to reporters within the
next few days. This will ask for the
percentages of bearing trees which
are oranges, grapefruit, lines and
lemons; what percentage of the pre-
sent citrus crop will probably be or
anges, grapefruit, lines and lemons.
An estimatefor the average yield in
boxes per tree and per acre and the
percentage of normal crop will be
required. The total number of bear
ing trees from one year up and the
percentages Of the total which are or
anges and grapefruit will be report
ed. The percentages of the various
varieties and seedlings will be given
so that an idea can be had of the most
popular varieties.
Mr.. Hare and Mr.. Murray made a
trip thru the south part of the state
during the last few days of the SEM
mar. Growers welcomed the news
Of the cumulative estimates and ex-
pressed their willingness to cooper
ate with the bureau..in collecting the

Combing Won't Rid
Hair of Dandruff

The only sure way to get rid OF dand-
ruff is to dissolve It, then you destroy
it entirely. To do this, get about four
ounces Of ordinary liquid arvon; apply
it at night when retiring; use enough
10 moisten the scalp and rub it in
gently with the finger tips
Do this tonight. and BY morning,
most II not all, Of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more ap-
plications will completely dissolve and
entirely destroy every single sign and
trace Of it, no matter how much dand-
ruff you may have
You will find, too. that all itching
and digging Of the scalp Will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy, lus-
trous' glossy. silky and soft, and look
and feel a hundred times better.
1ou can get liquid arvou at any
uruB store. IT is inexpensive and
never fails to do the work.-Adv.
