EXTEND SCOPE
Federal Census VIII Cover Wider
Range Than Before.

That the Fourteenth Decennial
Census, on which the actual enumer-
alton work will begin January 2, is
to be the most important ever taken
is shown by the fact that the Act of
Congress providing for this census
expressly increased the scope Of the
inquiries so as to include forestry
and forest products, two subjects
never covered specifically by any
preceding census act.
The inquiries to be made relating
to population, manufactures, mines,
quarries and agriculture were also
extended in their scope by Congress,
and the keenest interest over the
forthcoming census was shown by
the members of the census commit
tees of both the House and Senate
while the law was under consider
alton.
The statistics gathered on mining
will include all oil and gas wells
Many startling developments in this
important branch of the Nations
resources are looked for by census
officials. The figures gathered in
Texas, Oklahoma and Kansas will nc
doubt prove to be those most eagerly
sought for, as shown by inquiries al.
ready received by the Census Bureau
The compilation and gathering Of
forest products statistics will be IL
charge of special force of experts
The accurate and comprehensive fig
ures gathered concerning this vita
natural resource will be much in de
mand, and the comparisons mad
with conditions existing before tn
war will be of great interest.
Agricultural statistics will like
wise be the subject of special effor
on the part of the Census Bureau u
the Importance of farming is beinI
realized by the average citizen ia
more than ever before.

American Sardines.

Our imports Of sardines from France
and other European countries have
been almost entirely cut of by war;
hut the California sardine industry ~
developing so rapidly that n. b. SEQ
field, fish and game commissioner OF
that state. estimates an output or -
500 600 cases of California sardines In
another wear. The California sardine
has suffered market handicaps due 10
lack of standardization of pack. This
difficulty is now being overcome by CO
operation among the packers, and bet
ter methods of handling the fish from
the time they are taken out or the
water until they go into the can are
being developed. Gamers representing
90 per cent of the Maine sardine can
ming industry in cooperation with the
food administration have voluntarily
agreed to reduce their price to sou
case of 100 cans for the one-fourth size
in oil and for the three -fourths size IN
mustard. and S610 case OF 100 key
cans i'm the one-fourth size in oil. This
will enable retailers 70 sell the key
less cans at three for % cents, and the
grocery trade has lined up behind the
Maine Gamers to distribute both this
and last years pack at those prices.

Farmer Had Forgotten That I'me

Of Youth While re Was PHI

The farmer sat In the circle or light
she'd by the lamp on the reading table.
His brow was wrinkled as he ran over
the figures in his handbook with q
stubby lead pencil. While he figured,
his wife sewed steadily and the oid
clock on the mantel counted the sec
onds under It's breath.
At length the man placed his spec
tacles in their case, put his clasped
hands above one knee, smiled SLOWLY
and said: 1.-THE last payment on the
Dawkins farm has been paid, jimmy, an
I've got a right smart balance left In
the bank. That last bunch OF shoats
sold brought more money than 1
thought they would"
For a time he sat evidently waiting
for his wife to make some remark, but
her needle clicked steadily along hem,
while her eyes appeared glued 10 her
work. The farmer leaned forward
touched his wife upon her knee ana
continued: Don't you remember, jim
ny, ever so long ago, / told you that

paid for you an l would take trip, a
great big trip, anywhere you wanted 10

COLLEGE RECEIVES MONEY

During the past six months the
fund for Student scholarship has
been greatly increased through the
of friends of the college.
Over thirty seven hundred dollars
has been added TO this fund which
is primarily for the purpose of as
sisting students through their cours-
es. 1t is gratifying to learn that so
many people are so vitality interested
in the higher education Of students
and it speaks well for the type of
work that Alma is producing as
shown by her graduated and old
students. Among those who have
left money to the college are, ST.
10000 from the estate of Mrs. Gary
Allen of Howell, Michigan. This fact
was announced year ago, but II
was not until last week that The
money was received. Mrs. S. II
Preston of Lansing gave 81 10000 t.
the college on which they were t.
pay her an annuity for life. Mrs
Preston died last June, thus leaving
that amount to the institution. II
her will $4,000 more was added 8
that the college becomes sole owne
of the amount given.

Common Sense Plus.

The class in Commercial English
was studying the parcel post system.
The subject being discussed was the
size Of admissible matter under ths
class, to be sent in any zone. The cor
rect rule for this is to measure the
parcel from end 10 end with an 81
inch tape measure. and then use the
rest of the measure to stretch around
the circumference of the parcei. III
any surplus inches of tape come
around. then the parcel is of correct
size.
"Suppose." said the teacher, bring
ing forth a practical example, that
were to have an umbrella. Louise, how

Louise arose reluctantly and studied
for a moment in silence. AT last she
