Farmer Is Vitally Interested in 1940 Decennial Census _ Professor Carter of Northwestern university. whoâ€"spoke on his tripâ€"to "No group has a greater degree of selfâ€"interest in the success of the Decennial Census of 1940 than has the farmer," declared Mr. F. M. Hamlin, district supervisor of the Census for this district. "Agriculture as an industry has been in bad health for a number of years," declared Mr. Hamlin. "Just as a prudent person goes to his docâ€" tor for a complete checkup the farmâ€" ers will in the Census of 1940 get the most complete study of their symptoms that has ever been made. Facts to be collected on the seven million farms will provide the farâ€" mers themselves, the government, and students of the farm problem with a guide to the future. "The nation as a whole cannot be fundamentally prosperous unless the farmer is prosperous," declared Mr. Hamlin, "because the farms directly support 25 per cent of our populaâ€" tion and the business of farming affects about half of all of our peoâ€" ple. Besides being the producer of the nation‘s food supply, the farmer is one of the largest customers of the business man. The farmer‘s ability to purchase goods directly affects all business as well as their workers in the city. The farmer is one of the greatest suppliers of raw materials for industry. "Vital changes throughout the world have directly affected the prosperity of the American farmâ€" er," explains Mr. Hamlin. "Disloâ€" cation of world markets due to wars and the efforts of foreign nations to make themselves selfâ€"sufficient has made the American farm surplus burdensome by curtailing exports, Mechanization of farms has inâ€" creased farm production while deâ€" creasing the number of consumers Y Vote and Support Will Te Greatly Approcinted. Dr. J. E. Walter "We â€" Vote For â€" even on the farm. physical labor and the demand for staple food products Lighter women‘s clothes have added to the physical labor has resulted in a perâ€" capita decline in the consumption of wheat. The reduction of horses and mules from 27,000,000 to 15,000,000 in favor of tractors and trucks have made it necessary to find a market for eash crops from $0,000,000 acres formerly used to raise horse feed. The greatly reduced birth rate from 25 babies per 1,000 population to 17 fronted with the problem of adjustâ€" ing his production to meet these vital changes and the Census will tell him what these changes are. The Census figures will tell him what crops are being overproduced; what progress is being made to use more of his crops in industrial plants. "Industry has developed a fine statistical record which guides its future operations.. No one of the 7,000,000 farmers can develop such a set of records for his own guidance because he has only his own figures. Census records of 7,000,000 farms combined is the only complete naâ€" tional picture of farm operations to tell the farmer which way he is goâ€" ing, and to provide studenis of the serious farm probiem with the facts to meet this problem." means fewer months to feed in comâ€" Mr. Hamlin urges all of the farmâ€" ers of this section to coâ€"operate with the enumerator so that a complete record of farm operations in this section can be made. He suggests that farmers acquaint themselves with the essential facts about their 1939 operations such as number of farmed; number of acres owned or rented; value of the production of each item; number and classification of all livestock; quantity and value of all products including milk, butâ€" ter, eggs, and even the volume of foods produced and consumed on the farm. The enumerator will want to know the number of acres in use for each crop, pasture land, land lying idle or fallow, woodland, amount of farm mortgage, interest rate, expenditure for feed, farm imâ€" plements, automobiles, trucks, buildâ€" ing materials and equipment, ferâ€" tilizer and gasoline. The familiar words "Christ Is Risen," in letters fourteen feet high and six feet wide abov a huge white cross, will for the eighth consecuâ€" tive year, epitomize the voice o hundreds of young people‘s groups in presenting to Chicago citizens a great openâ€"air Easter sunrise serâ€" vice at 6:30 a.m. in Soldier Field. Unique from its inception during the Century of Progress Exposiâ€" tion, this service has fast become the most anticipated single service in the Middle West, appealing alike to all denominations. From 1933â€"39, a quarter million attendants have been thrilled by the inspiring proâ€" grams. Mr. Hamlin urges farmers to get help from their county agents many of whom are able to supply sample copies of the farm schedule.

Ransom Sherman NBC Comedian Says, Golf?
