THE LOW DOWM % m *? ^ ixom - ; HICKORY GROVE I picked Dp a Pacific Rural Prew ? it waa telling about a questionnaire tor the farmer*. It Is beaded, "U. S. Dept. of Agricui-r tore ? Bureau of, Agricultural Ec-| onomics ? Bud-L get Bureau No. 40-4414." The paper says If you like, bumor, don't miss this pamphlet. Send for it, to 2082 Center Street, Berkeley 1, Cal if. The questions _ cover everything 8e**? except whether a farmer and his ""Wife wash behind their ears. The ? Govt, wants to know how many card parties each farmer attend ed last year. How many picnics. How many close friends does he have, and their names, and to what church do they belong, ? likewise, himself. How often does he visit them. What does he do when be does visit. Is the house tidy. How many dan ces per annum. The above Is just a few sam ples, and a starter. One other question Is. "To what ETHNIC group do you belong?" Ethnic had me stumped. I looked it up In the dictionary ? I am still stumped. But as near as I can tell she looks like they had just as well called the farmer and his wife a heathen in the first place, and not beat around the bush with 5 pages of comic questions, printed on paper about which the Govt, says we have a shortage.
