Takino the Next Census,

The government takes stock Of itS
resources this year. July l, 1919, be-
gins the next decennial census of the
population and industries of the Unit
ed States. 1t comes fittingly at an i'm
portant epoch in the nations destiny
and at a time when we are launching
upon a new era of expansion and for
eign interest, Thomas r. Logan says
in Leslie'A Our statesmen and stu
dents will be deeply concerned in the
data accumulated as to the value Of
our industries as we'll as to their ex-
tent. It will be a greatly energized
and strengthened America which the
new census taker will find. He will
observe and record the effects of the
war upon our industrial life. He will
report also the exact number of our
citizens by races and ages. It will be
possible to determine how far General
Crowder's draft registration fell short
OF the actual number of population OF
draft age. The last census showed
9S,7S1,324 population. Guesses as to
the present population range from 1885,
100000 to as high as 100000. In
roads of the war, of influenza, without
compromising immigration, have abat-
eel our rate of increase. Despite this,
the totals may surprise US.

Offspring Of Gray Wolf and Highly
Bred Scottish Guardian Of Sheep,

get acquainted with. writes George F.
Burba In the Columbus Dispatch. He
belongs to q man living at Tyson
Vile, but IS known all over the state.
and his name is Pal"
Pals mother was a shepherd and
lived on the plains out West, where
she looked after a big herd Of sheep.
In fact she was one of the best sheep
dogs in the whole region. His father
was a gray wolf. So Pal is half wolf
and half dog-a common enough thing
out West.
Pal grew up with the sheep his
mother looked after and learned all
the tricks of rounding them up and
bringing them in. But he learned
whole lot more than the average sheep
dog knows. He learned that every
other animal as well as sheep can
be directed and guided and taken care
Of If you know how to do it So when
Pairs owner wants any certain animal
on the farm brought in, he simply
tells the dog what he wants and Pal
attends to it. He can tell the dog to
20 to the pasture mile away and
bring in q certain mule and he goes
and brings 1t I'm. He can direct him
to bring In q certain cow or calf or
hog and 1t Is done.
But the strange thing about 1T il

His owner has numerous bird dogs,
which he trains upon the plantation.
Pal helps train them. IL dog gets
too far away, the trainer says, pal,

runs to the dog and crowds him toward
the owner. He simply will not let
him 60 In any other direction. He
doesn't fight the other dog, although
mt times it may be necessary for him
to take hold of an ear and nip 1t g.
little. But he annoys the dog until
there is nothing else for it to do but
to be guided by Pal.
Then Pal is the high sheriff or po-
nceman Of the whole plantation. he
keeps the peace between the other anil
mails. II two dogs get into a fight,
Pal separates them. II he finds a
couple of hogs or chickens fighting,
he does the same thing. He doesn't
bother anything upon the plantation
unless it is doing something it ought
not to do, and then he takes a hand
in the matter and settles it. If he
finds a pig in a field where it doesn't
belong, he drives it out without being
directed to do so. IL a horse slips
