signed passed during the session of

pete protection of the entire Sacramento Valley

land for farming Nearly 100000 acres of farm
ing lands, domain about equalng the size of the
original Oklahoma, which opened to settlement
April %, 1889. being reclaimed from flood dan
gers and from such overfows have come to the
Sacramento River basin in past years.
The land is said to be the richest tract, area

portion of it, titled for the first time last year. ad
ded $s5, 900, 900 to the value of California crops
The value of this years crop is estimated $65 000
900. There will be homes for all of the California
soldiers who want to try farming Buyers of farms
of forty more will have their land plowed
and prepared through the agency of immense tractor
outfits Houses, according to their liking, will be
built and sold with the land, and in many cases seed

The Spirit of Youth

No matter how many young faces might be
around you. you could realize eternal youth
by looking the outward appearance.
The spirit of youth from making light of
outward appearance. it comes from throwing off all
for the outward, while your spirit rejoices in
the eternal life which is you.
Eternal youth is of the soul and the spirit not
of the flesh.
The flesh manifests that which you realize in
consciousness
By living in the Spirit of Youth, you come to
realize youth in your consciousness; and the mani
festaton takes of itself.
The way of realization is recognition. It is the
way of affirmation repeated to the realization degree
The manifestation is like shadow following sub
stance the substance is realization the shadow is
manifestation.
So don't worry about the shadow of old age on
your face the faces of those about you. Go in
to the silence and affirm eternal youth eternaly ex-
pressing -eternally pressing outward from within:
for that is the meaning of the word express.

Government to Take Census in the
Coming Year

All citizens. and those who are not citizens. can
prepare TO be enumerated in 1920. for that is the
year Uncle Sam will take the fourteenth decennial
of the United States. they will have
swer the questions put by government representa-
tives to compile the data taken every ten years.
Several hundred clerks now busy arranging
the preliminaries for the work. Aside from
the mere population figures a canvass will be made
of the agricultural, manufacturing. mining, quarry.
OIL gas and other interests for all states as well as
for the District Of Columbia. Alaska, Hawaii Porto
Rico, Guam, Samoa and the canal zone.
For the purpose of enumeration the country has
been devlded into 378 supervisory districts with
super 5isor for each to whom about $4,000 enumer-
ators will report
The actual enumeration will be completed in
few weeks, atho it will be several mouths before
suits will begin to be known. Nevertheless the fig
ures will be available much earlier for the 1920
sus than the in 1910 because this time the
will be taken January l instead of April Is.
in 1910. The change was made because it is be-
lieved the agricultural will be reliable
on the earlier date
Chief interest in the census of course will be in
the population. but great many interests require
much more detailed information. such the ratio
of males and females distribution, degree of illitera
cy, proportion of whites and blacks, proportion of
foreign born to native population and many other
facts that can be learned only through Uncle Sans
decennial stock taking The 1920 census is certain
to bring out many changes for the past decade has
been of wonderful growth and development.
Next to population the greatest interest will be
in the census of agriculture. This will show the
number and acreage of farms in the country the
number of acres of improved land; value of farms
and the stocks of machinery number and kind of
live stock, and practically every detail of nforma-
tion relating to agriculture.
The of manufacturers is taken every five
years, unlike the other inq qdiries. This will be of
unusual interest this time because the last census
taken in 1914, when the world was at peace.
Since then the greatest in history has been
fought and America has accomplished an industrial
expansion that is unparalleled. This census therefore
covering the calendar year l9l9 will present
tistca portrayal of the transition of American in
dustries from peace TO and from war back to
a peace basis.-Plainview News.
