S. department of agriculture, in cooperation with the postoffice department, is conducting its annual acreage survey. Rural carriers have been furnished with a supply of special questionnaire cards to distribute to farmers along their routes. All farmers receiving one of these cards are urged to cooperate with the department and return the card carefully filled out to their carrier who in turn will forward it to the office of the state agricultural statistician where the information will be compiled and analyzed. Reports from individual farms are held strictly confidential.

The information secured through this survey furnishes a basis for determining the acreage of each of the important crops and when combined with information received from other official sources, is of inestimable value in the compila tion of accurate crop reports. Due to the unusual conditions prevalent this year, the greatest possible number of usable cards is desired. Farmers in this locality are ureed to caref ully fill out the cards at once and return ,0 CMrier Unfortunately, there are a few indi- vlHuole U'Vin hplipva that thi.Q U'Ork is detrimental an, that tends t0 help the trade instead of the farmer. Such a contention is absolutely wrong. In the first place, the packers and grain trade are not dependent on the government reports for their information as each has facilities for collecting such data regardless of whether government reports are made or not.

If the govern ment crop reporting service should be discontinued, the private reporters would continue to make estimates, and as a consequence farmers would suf fer most under such conditions. Second ly, government reports are based upon the reports of thousands of farmers and relate the facts in a disinterested and impartial manner. Government reports minimize the effects of false and mis. leading statements as a result offers to the farmer a reliable guide which enables him to adjust his program of production accordingly.

ESTELLE TAYLOR WONT GIVE IN Claims to be Mrs. Jack Demp-sey Despite Divorce Decree CHICAGO, Sept. Taylor maintains sne is sun jars, jatu Dempsey. Although the former heavyweight champion fighter of the world obtained a divorce from her at Reno yesterday, she said she would not recognize it and accused Dempsey of "poor sportsmanship." "Jack may feel very free at this moment," she said yesterday, but until the California courts, where we both maintain our residences, declare me free, I shall still call myself Mrs. Jack Dempsey." Miss Taylor who is appearing at a Chicago theatre, said her attorney, Joseph Scott advised her "not to worry as he has full confidence tnat tne courts of California will protect me." She added that action would be taken to have the Reno divorce invalidated when her own divorce complaint is heard in Los Angeles.

Troth I South Dakota secretary of agriculture, as the "onlv Dractical method" for over.

coming the serious infestation In agri cultural states, After several weeks experimentation with fungus disease cultures, Mr. Troth said he felt optimistic about winning he fight against grasshoppers which devastated south-central South Dakota this summer if this method is used in conjunction with other known plans. Working on control plans for next year, the agriculture secretary investigated possibility of spreading the fungus disease as suggested recently by E. L. Senn, Sioux Fails, who said the me- thod was used successfully in Charles Mix county 30 years ago.

We have been exnerimentine for several weeks past with cultures of this grasshopper fungus disease and the re sults have been very satisfactory," Mr. Troth reported. "In fact, the results have surprised me. The disease spreads mot rapidly during wet warm weather and I was not very hopeful when we commenced our experiments as to success during this hot dry weather. I found, however, that the hoppers commenced dying about two days a.ter the inoculation, although the weather was over 100 degrees in the shade each day and we had neither rain nor dew.

"This disease will remain in the soil for several years when it has once been introduced. It is not injurious to either man or domestic animals as it affects only grasshoppers and some other insects. I am convinced that it is the only practical method for overcoming this mighty serious grasshopper infestation which has spread over an immense area of our agricultural states." Mr. Troth said entomologists have worked "hard but unsuccessfully" this jsununer to control the grasshoppers with poison bran mash, with counties the Rosebud country SDendina a total ahonr SltM 000 in addition to lnrirp desolation today," the agriculture eflcroiflrv caid "I feel very sanguine that we shall able to control the grasshoppers in future by use of this inoculation, Troth said, though the weather conditions should be very similar this year. I believe that by spreading this inoculation of fungus disease, conjunction with all other known methods, including those used this summer, as well as those employed by Mr Senn, and by following the recommendations ol federal and state entomologists now workiig in the field, in re gard to disking and fall plowing, etc.

feel certain we stand a mighty good chance of winning this fight against the grasshoppers. Shipment of Gold Sent by Argentine BUNEOS AIRES. 23 steamer Eastern Prince is on the way New York with $5,000,000 in gold to apply on the $50,000,000 Argentine loan, due Oct. 1. PROHIBITION VP TODAY DETROIT.
