Kitchen Asks Correct
Crop Reports; Farmers
Fears Are Groundless

Cooperation in compiling accurate
statistics covering agricultural de-
velopment has been asked Of assessors
throughout the state by J. A. Kitchen,
commissioner Of agriculture and la
bot.
1nacircular to the assessors, Kitchen
said he has been informed that some
farmers appear to be reluctant to give
crop statistics on the theory that It
would work injury to them If their
acreases and yields were known.
On the contrary, Kitchen said. SO
many wild estimates are made that It
will be Of benefit to the farmer to
have the truth known. He points out
that the figures are not published for
at least = year and hence cannot have
any effect on the marketing OF the
crop for the year covered by them.

Barrows story is written out of deep
familiarity with the life Of the stage
and of New York night clubs-and
what is greater, an understanding Of
those qualities which make all hui

kin has produced a marvel Of photog-

revelry being created with certainty
and real magic.
AS for Jolson. he is revealed as an
actor Of unquestionable sincerity and
amazing power Of emotional express
sion. In many of his scenes his sor-
rows are tragic in their intensity, and
exercise an unusual effect on the
feelings Of the audience. This is the
more remarkable when one considers
that Jolson has. always been looked
upon as q comedian, though to the
more discerning there has invariably
been the touch of pathos which made
it evident that he would be able at
some time to interpret the tragedies
Of life as well as the lighter moods.

the unprecedented figure OF 459.987.
The first statistics on alfalfa show
24,8l2 acres in 1918 and $3.50 In
1919. In 1920 the acreage slumped
to 24,l42, but since then has been
climbing steadily. reaching 174.520.
Although the number Of sheep has
since been increased. the number
enumerated In the spring of 1928 was
only 384,923 and OF those only lisa
were purebred. Hogs numbered 49,
844 Of which 1872 were purebred.

The number Of chickens in the
