Washington. When the census enu merator comes around to the farm shortly after January 1 next year, he will ask some questions that may sound like prying Into the purely per sonal affairs of the farmer. Now, the farmer, like every other self-respecting man, dislikes having his private affairs peeped into and, unless he thinks about this thing In advance, may have a disposition to be unrespon sive if not actually resistant. In actual fact, every question that the enumerator will ask Is an essential question and has a direct bearing on the personal welfare and prosperity of the Individual farmer as well as upon the advancement of the agricul ture of the nation as a whole. When the bureau of the census de cided to take the farm census In Jan uary Instead of In April, it did so upon the advice of the United States department of agriculture. The farm er Is less likely to be very busy In January than at the spring planting and breeding season, and his products and live stock are In better shape for statistical treatment. Also, every new question and there are a number of them Inserted In tie agricultural schedule was placed here after con sultation with the department of agriculture and for the purpose of clearing up some specific situation In which the department of agriculture Is trying to aid the fanner. Here are some questions thnt will be asked: "Do you own all of this farm?" "Do you rent from others part but not all of this farm?" "Do you rent from others all of this farm?" "If you rent all of this fann, what do you pay as rent?" "If you own all or part of this farm, was there any mortgage debt or other en cumbrance on the land so owned on January 1, 1920?" "What was the to tal amount of debt or Incumbrance on land on this farm owned by you, Jan uary 1, 1920?' Pertinent Not Impertinent. "What the Sam Hill," you may In quire, "has the government got to do with how much money I owe on my land?" Well, two of the things to which the department of agriculture has been giving deepest thought dur ing the pnst several years are farm tenancy and rural credits. The past three censuses have shown an In crease in the number of tenants. Alarmists have felt and said that the country Is going to the bow-wows by the landlord route. The department of agriculture, however, looked into the matter as well as It was able, and refused to be alarmed. Where It whs able to make surveys it discovered that while the number of tenants 20 years old was greater In 1910 or 1890, the number of tenants 45 years old tvas considerably smaller in 1910 than In 1900 or 1890. The Inference Is that tenancy Is a step toward ownership, that the young fellow who becomes a tenant farmer when he marries, say, is likely to be a farm owner before his first child Is grown the farm paid for and the money that used to go to pay off the mortgage available for sending the children to college. Now to the department of agricul ture that looks like a thoroughly nor mal, healthy and beneficial process. To just the extent that tenancy leads to farm ownership, it is a good thing for the country and for the indivlduaL Full Answer Essential. But it has not been possible to get a complete, nation-wide survey of the situation. The forthcoming census offers the opportunity for doing that. If every farmer will answer the enumerator's questions fully and fair ly the department of agriculture will have the data from which to analyze the situation accurately ar. to deter mine what things can be done to best advantage to help the tenant in his aspiration to become a farm owner. One of the directions that aid may take Is encouragement of rural cred its finding all of the ways possible Tell the Census Enumerator All the the Government Can Help You. nf he'ping the young farmer to get he money tlmt he needs to borrow. It s iH'ricsMiry, there! i .re. to know what I n ! n ii hi nf farmers who advance in. in tenants to owners have to bor row money to make the change, ami how much. in I n -port ion to total value of the farms bought, they have to borrow. v The road toward ow:irrshi; docs mt necessarily start with tenancy. A ,'rent many farm owneis were Itrst farm hands, then tenants, then owners with a mortgage, then owners debt ! free. The census will show, if the i questions are answered fuirly, how i many years. If any, every fanner worked for wages; how many years ho was a tenant ; and how many years lie has been an owner. The depart -I ment of agriculture will have the basic information It needs to help I men to success in farm owner-hip. Other Important Queries. Here are some oilier questions that will be asked: "Has this farm a tele phone?" "Is water piped into the operator's house?" "lias the opera tor's house gas or electric light?" Now that looks like an effort to linil out whether or not the farm fam ily has the modern comforts ami li i -i i thnt. but it means souietliini: More than mere impiisi iveness. Sev "al months ago. win n the bun-ait of farm management w;,. in p-oie;s .r i ei ii'a n iza t ion . the secretary of i jri' iilt lire called a conference of I I- !'

The work of promoting the comfort and con venience of the farm home received a; overwhelming majority of the votes. That. then. Is one of the things that the department of agriculture is try ing to do in aid of the farm popula tion of this country. In order to do the work intelligently. the depart ment needs as full Information as possible as to how the farm homes of the country are equipped for com fort and convenience. Another Way to Help. Kvcry farmer will be asked how many acres of drained land he has and how many other acres of hind there are on his farm that could he made suitable for cultivation if they were tile-drained or ditch-drained. When these questions are asked you remember that they are asked every one of your neighbors. Possibly you have a tract of land that would be the most productive field on yon; farm if you could get the surplus wa ter out of it, but you can not do it because, to be effective, the drainage ditch would have to go far beyond the borders of your own farm, would have to be a county enterprise, and the county has not seen fit to do any thing about it. If that be true, several of your neighbors have land that should he drained. If all of you tell the census enumerator how many acres you have that need drainage, the department of agriculture will have the facts to show what i. needed in your community. When the oppor tunity offers, it will be in position to do what It may to secure for you I what you need. I Those tilings are fairly typical of the questions that will be asked In taking the agricultural census. In order to answer all of the questions intelligently, the fanner will have to think about the matter a little before the enumerator calls on him. He ought 'o give the enumerator the most accur- j ate information he can. What the indi- 1 vidual fanner tells the enumerator If ' iikeiy to benefit any number of other j fanners. It is cot too early now to ; get U;e facts straight in your mind. AIRPLANES SPY OUT HIDDEN FISH Schools That Escape the Eya in Crow's Nest Readily Seen From Plane. USE IN CATCHES IS SHOWN Flight Mad by Navy Craft BarM Worth aa Locator and Tim Saver Act aa Guldo to Steam ra. New York. A new use for air planes had bet n found. Schools of fish for which the fishing fleets along the coast may search vainly for days can be detected from a seaplane, ac cording to a report by W. W. Welsh of the bureau of fisheries. The report of Mr. Welsh followed a trip he made In a naval seaplane from the Cape May naval air station. The flight was made at from 500 to 1,000 feet and at a speed of 70 miles an hour. At the time of the flight no schooling fish were breaking water on the surface, and none couldbe seen from the crow's nest of a vessel or from fishing piers. "The plane ascended rapidly to about 800 feet, and most of the trip was made at that altitude," Mr. Welsh reported. "Few schools of flsh were seen at first, but as my eye grew ac customed to the conditions many small schools of menhaden were observed, all moving at some depth, and none of them breaking water. Some schools were so near the surface that they appeared as a reddish brown granu lar mass, nmebold In character and changing form constantly. Large Schools Observed. "Deeper schools had the appearance of large masses of sunken gulfweed. nrsd others were so deep that they could be distinguished chiefly by the shadow they caused on the suspended particles in the water. From a com parison with other objects seen at known depths It Is estimated that the depth , of the schools varied from about two feet to ten feet, or pos sibly more. "One school of silver flsh was ob served breaking water. Those were possibly weakflsh, certainly not men haden, as they lacked the characteris tic color of the latter. A school of porpoises was clearly seen and could be followed under water. The most evident opportunity for the practical use of aircraft In the commercial fisheries at the present time lies In their employment cs scouts for the purse-seine fishermen. In the pursuit of such species as menhaden, mackerel, hlueflsh, bluebacks, kyacks and other schooling flsh. Tn tbo case of the spring mackerel fiVhrry It Is believed that the use of alivroft '.voold save much time In locating the flh upon their first appearance nnd In en abling the fishermen to kei p in to ich with the flsh as they appeared farther north. The chief service rendered would be notification of fishermen of the general vicinity of the schools and It would require actual trlcl and prac tice to determine how niuc!i could be done in directing the fishing vessels to particular schools by means of radio telephone or other methods of signal ing. Most Promising Field. "Tt would appear that the menhad en fishery offers the most promising field for experiment In this direction. In the case of a region like the mouth of Chesapeake bay. where there are large mmhaden Interests, nnd xvhere there Is a naval air station convenient ly located, the conditions wT.ild seem to be excellent for the development of tactics In the use of aircraft o as sist flshine operations. The benefit to the fishing f!et would be In time and fuel saved In the searching for fish and In the concentration of ef fort on large schools Instead of vtiMt Ing time on small, scattered bunrhes of fish. "It Is quite possible nlso that schools of large flsh might bo distin guished from those of smaller, Ic-iuer fish, although this would require ex perience in observation. Another fiald for experiment would lie In the guid ance of fishing steamer to large schools not visible from the crostrees, but plainly visible from aircraft, and communication by means cf wireless telephone, harking buoys or ether de vices would enable the boats to set the seine around the flsh Invisible to them. Such co-operation would be of great advantage to the naval air serv ice as well as to the fishing Interests, as It would provide for the navsl avi ators excellent practice In scouting, station finding and communication." liiei! orange and lerunti peel are gooo suU;itutes for ladling wood.
