COMMUNITY AID SALE SUCCESS.

The Christmas bazaar and cooked
food sale, conducted by the Ladies'
Aid of the Community church at their

and in a short time the counters were
cleared of most of the fancy articles
of apparel and the edibles. The after
IS receipts totaled $145, leaving
net of $115 after all expenses had
been paid.
The ladies thank the community for
the liberal patronage and fine consid-
GRAFTON of their efforts.
The Aid met yesterday afternoon

VIM. LEDBETTER UNDER OPERA
TIoN, RECOVERING.

Word was received here yesterday
that Wm., Ledbetter, formerly a well
known citizen of this place and now
residing near Tacoma, Wn, was op-
Grated upon in the Good Samaritan
Hospital at Portland last Saturday
for bladder trouble, passing through
the ordeal finely. 1t is hoped by his
old prairie friends that he will con
tinue to improve right along. He has
been in very poor health for some
time.
His mother-intlaw, Mrs. Sarah
shanks, formerly resident of the
Christman section, but now lvlng
with the Ledbetters, suffered slight
stroke of paralysis two weeks ago,
but is now slowly recovering.

Postmaster Billups and his helpers
have found the noise thoughtlessly
made by patrons in the lobby of the
post office during the distribution of
the evening mail to be SO great at
times as to interfere with their work,
and this in spite of the fact that he
has repeatedly asked those making
not want to be compelled to resort to
the extreme measure of locking the
front door and thereby keeping tho
lobby clear while the mail is being
distributed. But this win be his next
step.
Another point recently called to our
attention by an inspector is the habit
some people have of inclosing writ
ten or other first-class mail matter
in parcels they are sending through
the mails. This is absolutely prohib-
tied and infractions on the law are
punishable by severe penalties.

Frank J. Egelston, who has been ap
pointed. farm census enumeration for
the eastern section of Lewis county,
came up from Kamiah yesterday and
this morning commenced his work in
the Mohler and Central Ridge dis
tricts. This census taking is often
made needlessly difficult for the
enumerator, which would not be the
case if those being questioned would
simply stop and consider that the
questioner is government official
carrying out the requirements of the
law, with no personal interest in the
matter beyond that.

TAKING COMPLETE FARM CEN
SUS.

| The Department Of Commerce i
about to take census of agricultur,
covering the crop year 1924 and re
lating to conditions on or near Janu
ary l, 1925. This is the first census
of agriculture to be taken midway be
tween the decennial censuses; the Act
of Congress authorizing it is based on
the belief that, with rapidly changing
conditions in agriculture, there should
be a stock taking as often as every
five years. The work Of taking the
census began on December ], and is to
be completed on or before January 81.
AS rapidly as possible after the re
ceipt of returns statements will be re-
leased for the press, by the Census
Bureau at Washington, relative to
production of the principal farm crops
and the values of farm properties, in
cluding land, buildings, machinery,
and live stock.
The enumeration will require the
services of about $4,000 to 10000
enumerators acting under the direc-
tion of 212 supervisors, who have for
the most part been selected from the
employees of the Bureau of the Cen
sus and the Department of Agricul-
ture. Employees Of the Forest Ser
vice will secure the Census returns for
most of the farms within the National
forest reserves.
Simple questionnaires are being
widely distributed to the farmers, to
familiarize them with the information
soon to be called for by the enumer=
ators. In addition to the usual in
quiries relative to production, values,
and farm expenses, the schedule calls
for the amount of taxes paid by the
farm operator on farm property, in
cluding real estate tax personal prop
ertv tax, and special assessments. 1t
is important to ascertain just what
the burden of taxation resting upon
the farm really is and how it compares
with the amount Of taxes paid by |
other interests. This may point the
way to more equitable adjustment
Of the tax burden.
Heretofore the census of agriculture
has always been taken in connection
with complete census of population
This time it will cover the farm popu-
ation only, showing the number of
persons living on the farm, including
he family of the operator and the
,arm laborers and their families.
these persons viii be classified as un-
Ter or over ten years of age and as
White or colored.
The extent to which farm operators
Ised the purchasing and selling facil
ties of farmers organizations viii be
,rought out by two inquiries; one
alIing for the value of products of
he farm sold through a farmers
marketing organization, and the other
alIing for the value of all farm sup
lies purchased from or through a
armers' organization. An additional

The Nezperce High School basket
ball team won. both of its games from
Kamiah high school last week. The
first game at Kamiah went to the 10.
cal team, 26 to 4, while the following
night on the local floor, the BOYS
again demonstrated their ability bv
winning q to 3. In both games the
local boys proved themselves as an ex-
ceptionally good high school team.
The boys played good, heady basket
ball, displaying many of the necessary
things, which are SO apparent in a
championship team.
The smallness of the opponents
score shows the capable defensive
tactics Of the home team. Stapleton
and Flatt, Nezperce guards, played an
exceptionally strong guarding game,
allowing Kamiah but one field goal
for the two nights of play. Huffman
and Morse, forward and center, re-
spectively, played wonderful offensive
ball, time after time working the ball
1own for clear, open shots.
