COLLF1GE STATION.—Questions
of vital importance to farmers and
ranchers will be answered when sta-
tistics gathered In the sixteenth de-
cennial census to be taken this year
have been compiled, according •»
Tyrus R. Timm, economist in farm
management for the A. and M. Col-
lege Extension Sendee.
Some of the questions argued dur-
ing the last five years which wfll
be answered include: Are more
farms being worked in 1940 than
SUIAOUI a|doed Ajp *JV 19861 Ul
to small farms in suburb* and sup-
plementing their incomes by grow-
ing" part " of their own "food"?............ “**'*’,
"No business or nation can oper-
ate without taking an occasional I
inventory, and this year we shalt
witness the biggest inventory of
them all,” the economist said in
urging rural people to try to give
accurate information to census tak-
ers. Population and agricultural
canvasses will begin April 1 as pro-
vided by law, while censuses of
business, manufactures, mines, irri-
gation, and drainage are already
under way.
Timm believes rural people
be especially interested in the shifts
of poplation from city to country
and country to city, as well
shifts from state to state and
tion to section. T’he census will
! reveal who moved—whether 1t
! farmers, factory workers,.
skilled laborers. Although
ture has the advantage of having ah
agricultural inventory taken by the
Census Bureau every five years, it
is important that the agricultural
inventory be correct and representa-
tives in the general inventory since
the information obtained will serve
as a basis for future ational agri-
cultural programs.
SKEPTICAL HOTEL KEEPER

In a small hotel in Ontario, so a
returned traveler reports, then is
a yellowing sign tacked to the dingy
wall behind the desk on which the
proprietor proclaims his fixed inbred
skepticism of all humanity. It reads,
“No checks cashed. Not even good
ones.” »■ 0
