Submarginal Land
Will Be Purchased
Five Projects Set Up In Three
Northwest States Involve
100000 Acres

PULLMAN, Dec. 31-F'ive pur-
chase projects in Oregon, Wash
ington and Idaho have been de-
veloped under the submarginal land
program of the Agricultural Ad-
justment administration. Approx
mately 100000 acres Of land are
involved, according to Rex E. Will
lard, regional director, Land Policy
Section.
Two projects in Washington IN
volving about 100000 acres have
been definitely established, and two
projects of slightly less acreage in
Oregon have also been approved.
One project is under way in
southern Idaho. The lands selected
for purchase are those known to be
submarginal in character, and ade-
quate information is secured to
definitely establish this fact.
For Other Use
These units will be set aside for
grazing, forestry, recreational pur-
poses, or other uses less intensive
than farming. Lands are being
purchased in comparatively large
blocks in order to set up suitable
administrative units for future
supervision.
Purchases are made from farmers
in these selected areas who have
attempted to make a living on land
too poor to support a family, and
those accepting the government IS
offer are given the choice of select
ing an approved site for resettle-
ment, or relocating themselves.
These projects are in the nature
of experiments in which the govern
ment is attempting to determine
whether or not this type of program
is feasible and practical. No fur
ther expansion of the purchase pro-
gram will be made beyond the
present set-up until congress takes
some action.

1895 FARM CENSUS
HIGHLY IMPORTANT

Getting under way with the new
wear. the 1885 census of agriculture
will be of vital Importance not only
to every Washington farmer but to
the nation in general, declares F.
e. Balmer, state agricultural exten-
sion director. The information
gathered will form the basis for
countless state and national agr1-
cultural prospects during the next
five years. The analysis and inter
probation of the census will give an
inventory of agriculture and point
the way for needed changes and
adjustments.
Many agencies already having
numerous programs under way ex-
pected to remedy Embellishments in
American life will benefit from the
census as will as agricultural agen-
cies having to Go with acreage and
livestock adjustments, subsistence
homesteads, marginal lands land
utilization, soil erosion, farm credit,
farm housing and labor and unem-
ployment, said Director Balmer. OF
course, all public works and indus
tries are more or less influenced by
agricultural conditions and agricul-
tural statistics because agriculture
is one Of the great basic industries.
The census of agriculture in 1885
will include the name and address
of the farm operator; farm acreage,
including all crop land, pasture land,
and farm woodland; total value Of
the farm; acreage and yield Of each
of the principal field crops and veg
etables; number of trees and yield
of each of the principal fruits;
number and value of each class of
livestock; poultry and eggs, and
farm population.
Cooperation of each farmer will
be necessary to secure the full bene-
fit of the census. Each individual
farmers report is a strictly conf
Dental report and treated as such
by the enumeratorS.

URGE POULTRYMEN TO BUY
GOOD REPLACEMENT CHICKS

Buy vigorous chicks bred to lay
large numbers of large eggs, is the
advice of w. D. Buchanan, State
College extension poultryman, to
those who will soon be purchasing
stock to build up their flocks. Good
chicks inherit practically all the
qualities which later make for high
producing pullets and hens. For
this reason, the flock records of the
hatchery where the chicks are pur-
chased should be thoroughly inves-
tigated for these qualities.
Ability for high production of
large eggs must be bred into a bird
or it will be of no value. Although
it is not always possible to buy
chicks from trap-nested dams, it is
possible to know the flock average
which is behind the chicks. AS the
rooster is nineteen twentieths of the
flock, chicks should always be pur-
chased from flock mated to pedi-
greed cockerels. The boosters dams
and sires should show breeding for
number and size of eggs for gener-
atoms back.
VigOr Inherited
Vigor is another important in
herited quality. This can be easily
observed. Chicks should be ready
to jump out of the box on arrival
and should live. Death may be due
to mismanagement, chilling, over
crowding, overheating, poor feed
ing or disease. Special precautions
should be taken to see that chicks
are from flock tested for bacillary
white diarrhea or pullorum disease.
IT proper care is given the chicks,
no one but the owner is responsible
if they die.
Chicks bred to lay 100 eggs a year
or more repay the added initial cost
many times when compared to those
with no background of breeding for
egg production. Mortality of good
chicks is much lower than that of
the ordinary rum and consequently
requirements in the flock are cut
to minimum. The poultryman will
always be far ahead by paying five
cents more for good chick than by
buying stock that has no pedigreed
ancestry or inherited ability for egg
production.

Another important subject which
will call for congressional attention
is the proposed extension OF the
federal governments powers in the
war on crime. Something like a
federal training school for detec-
tives and national Scotland Yard
are being talked about. The pur-
pose is to eliminate not only ordl-
nary forms of crime but to clean up
the drug traffic situation, which is
becoming serious all over the nation.
Cotton, NRA and Interest
Administration officials are jubi-
liant over the overwhelming ma
jority of votes given by cotton
planters in favor of continued re-
striction of cotton production. It is
much more pleasing than the re
suits of the corn-hog plebiscite. It
is taken as assurance that what the
people want is to be regulated. Look
for more regulatory legislation at
the coming session.
Among other things, there will be
presented to congress, proposals for
the modification and continuation
in modified form of MIRA. It is no
secret that remark of Chief Jus
tice Hughes from the bench the
other day has disturbed many Off
Gals here. The case in court was
one of violation of an executive Dr.
der under the MIRA, and the Chief
Justice asked where that law was

| United Press Stan Correspondent London (UP)-Young men oc- cupy the thrones of the nations of

 Their average age is around 40. Some of them are still children. There are today 30 crowned
 heads, ex-rulers, and claimants to the worlds thrones, excluding the
 princes of Indian states, and small native islands and territories. The Survey A survey of them shows nine

 Egypt; King Victor Emanuel, .65,

 relatives.
 Among those who sand, figuraA lively speaking, with one foot on the throne are the Prince of Wales. 40; Crown Prince Humbert of Italy, 30; Crown Prince Olav of Norway, 31; Prince Farouk of Egypt, 15, Prince Rainier of Mo- naco, Il: and Crown Prince Adolf of Sweden, who. at 52, might not be long before he gave place to his
