NEW STATISTICAL
INFORMATION REQUIRED

County Assessor McGuirk has receiv-
ton the schedules to be used this year
IN collecting agricultural statistics, as
required under the agricultural Stats
ties law passed in 1919 The informa
ton to be collected this year is about
the same as that collected last year,
with few items added. The most I'M
portant addition is regarding fruit,
each farmer being asked under the new
schedule to give the number of fruit
trees of bearing age of the various
kinds to be found on his farm and the
number of acres in small fruits. This
information was not asked for last
year and will not be asked for again
for two or three yers, so it is especially
important that this part of the survey
he covered completely.
The schedule is simple and all ques-
tons may be answered by farmers
without reference to any books OF ac.
counts. in addition to the number of
acres of various crops they are raising
this year farmers are requested to give
the total acreage of their farms, acre.
age first cropped this year, acres of I'M.
broken land fit for farming, number OF
sllos and farm tractors and number OF
hens and brood sows on April !, 1920.
Since the enumeration is begun on
April !, most farmers will not have
planted all their crops when they are
visited by the assessors. They will be
asked to give the total acreage they
expect to devote to each crop this year,
including what they have planted and
what they expect to plant.
The information to be gathered
through this survey will be used in
keeping farmers, transportation com
panies and others interested informed
as to the amount of the various crops
that will be produced in the different
sections of the state. Crop bulletins
giving acreage, condition and estimat-
ed production of all the principal crops
by counties, will be published each
month and the fullest possible publicity
will be given them, so that the farmers
as well as those who deal in the farm
ers' products, will be informed regard.
ing crop outlook and expected produc
ton. II is believed that this kind of
information will be of great value to
the farmers in guiding their marketing
operations.
The law requires that each farmer
furnish the assessor or deputy the in
formation asked for and provides q
penalty for failure on the part Of the
farmer to comply with the assessors
request. It also provides that no use
shall he made Of individual reports Of
farmers except in compiling totals for
the various counties. In other words,
the individual reports Of farmers nre
strictly confidential and severe penal
ties are prescribed for disclosing them.

And | beheld her loving form
Beside my lonely bedside stand;
She whispered softly; what she said
l could not fully understand.
Did she descend to soothe my soul.
My soul by life in tempests whirled,
Or did she come to call me there
Into the other, better world?
l know it not-for soon my dream
Was lost in vision of another.
But all day long, with giIeving heart,
l strayed and craved, and yearned
for mother.
