reason that they are making pro-

are so well organized that it is
only now a matter of amalgama-

operation you have great central

PREPARE

Washington, Aug. Reports OF
farm conditions which will gauge
the havoc wrought in crops by a
~rafnless summer are now being re-
ceiYed by the agricultural depart
ment.
Within the next eight days the
department will make it's formal
estimate of prospective cotton,
grain, vegetable, fruit, sugar and
nut crops. The cotton estimate
will be released Monday and the
other estimates a week later.
The crop reporting service of
the department internationally is
charged with costly inaccuracies
and leaks. Millions OF dollars are
involved in the estimates.
About 300 persons comprise the
personnel in the department head.
ed by w. F. Callander, chairman
of the crop reporting board. Re-
ports from state sta"tisticians are
~telegraphed to the secretary of ag-
riculture and placed under seal in
a box which is guarded by a dep
uty marshall.
The night before the estimate
is to be made, Callander and eight
assistants are locked in a room.
Telephones are disconnected. The
windows are covered with blinds
to prevent signs to persons on the
outside.
Callander energies from the
room and goes with the marshal,
who guards the room, to the lock
ed box containing the state re-
ports. Then the estimate is fin
ished. Sometimes it takes all
night.
Specialists o IN particular crops
on areas often are added to the
boards personnel to solve partic-
ular problems. The experts scan
the reports from individuals, or
CARNATIONS and state reporters.
In a year such as this one, these
reports are not adequate and the
final figures are altered in ac
cordance with the judgment of
board members.
There will be such an adjust
ed report this year to indicate
properly the damage of a dry
growing season. 1t will give the
first accurate indication of what
dry weather has done to the corn
crop. Futures trading in farm pro-
duce throughout the world will be
affected by the estimates.
A few minutes before the hour
Of release, newspaper men will
gather in a department room con-
tanning special telephones. A copy
of the estimate will be laid face
down beside each phone. At the
fixed hour, Callander will signal
to the reporters, who will rush
to the telephones and within a
minute the closely guarded figures
will begin appearing in the news
paper Offices throughout the Unit
ed States, and will have started
abroad via cables.
The department SCOTS at the
idea OF leaks. I

COWS SUFFER FROM
EXPOSURE TO HOT SUN
Glasgow Courierl

While visiting her sister, Mrs

hair from spots on their hide
which became very sore and in

The condition you refer to is

Cotton crops in Texas and Okla
homa were in worse condition
than for years. A plague of grass
hoppers, reported advancing on
the border from the state of Chi
huahua, Mexico, complicated the
situation. Sweltering travellers from
the south said the insects were
in such a thick cloud that they
obscured the sun, made the tele-
graph lines look like thick ropes
and impeded railroad travel by
MASKING on the rails so that en-
CINE wheels could not obtain

crop experts were making plans

Streams Drying
Streams, rivers and wells

dying by the thousands in stag
