Reports Complete
as the Census
Anderson Finds Most Precinct Assess
ors' Reports Finished Fig
ures Ready July 1.
Twelve hundred and thirty pre
cinct agricultural reports out of 1,
20 agricultural precincts in the state
have already been received by the
state and federal division of agri
cultural statistics. Over 900 of these
reports have been compiled and the
entire report for the state will be
ready before the close of the month.
Bays A. E. Anderson, chief of the di
vision. A marked improvement in the
quality of the work is noted this
year," Anderson says. "Every pos
sible effort has been made to de
velop this work and it is believed
that at the present time it will com
pare favorably with the federal cen
sus in completeness.
Nebraska is the only state In the
union that has been able to gather
the agricultural statistics for the
current year and compile the ...same
by July 1... A checkup survey is made
after harvest to get any changes in
acreage due to abandonment. This
record of acreage by counties for each
crop Is available by July 1
"Nebraska publishes an annual re
port of agricultural statistics that
contains," Mr. Anderson says, "three
times the information contained In
the average annual report issued by
about thirty other states that co-operate
with the federal government In
gathering agricultural statistics. Ne
braska spends about $7,000 a year
for this work which Is about the av
erage amount spent by each of the
inirty states co-operating with the
federal government."
SALT RAIDERS QTJIET DOWN
Bombay With the subjugation of
northwest frontier tribesmen by
British airplanes and with the com
ing of the rainey season lessening
the activities of nationalist salt
raiders, the Indian situation offered
little of an evciting nature Sunday.
Nationalist political activity con
tinues, however. At Jalapore o con
ference of civil disobedi
teers was held under the presidency
U1 iU1!- viuxium, wire or the mahat
ma, and adopted plans for a stiffen
ing of the civil resistance movement.
The conference passed a resolution
urging the non-payment of land
devenue and a social boycott of gov
ernment servants, both of which are
forbidden in recent ordinances pro
mulgated by the viceory.
The working committee of the all
India national congress concluded the"
sitting which began last Wednesday
at Allahabad. Its activities were
kept secret, but it is understood the
chief feature was a decision to in
crease th,e program of picketing li

AGENT
Plattsmouth
Nebraska
Jesse E. Livingston, Cass county
boy from Weeping Water, Nebraska,
received his appointment and began
work this week in Buffalo county for
the United States Department of
Agriculture. He will be engaged in
barberry eradication, a control meas
ure for the reduction of black stem
rust, according to R. O. Bulger, Lin
coln federal agent in charge of the
barberry eradication campaign in
this state. ,
Mr. Livingston completed his first
year of college work at the University
of Nebraska this spring. Reports are
that he made a splendid record at
college and was selected from a group
of more than fifty applicants for these
positions. To receive an appointment
from the federal government on this
work, one must have a high scholas
tic rating, be of good moral char
acter and have special qualifications
that particularly fit the position.
Barberry eradication in Nebraska
is a part of the campaign carried on
by the United States Department of
Agriculture in co-operation with
thirteen of the north-central grain
producing states to reduce stem rust
losses by the destruction of common
rust-spreading barberry bushes. Over
14,000 of these shrubs have been
found and destroyed in this state,
while more than 18 million barber
ries have been destroyed in the 13
states engaged in this work. Losses
caused by black stem rust have shown
a decided decrease over the area as
a whole since this work began.

J. M. Gates, pioneer resident of
Sarpy county and one of the best
known men of near Fort Crook, is
in St. Joseph hospital as the result
of a fall Sunday evening, in which
he suffered a broken leg. About 5

including the gathering of the eggs.
A board was broken in the floor of
the second story of the chicken
house, and not observing it he step
ped through it, and fell to the floor
below, a distance of about seven
feet. Mrs. Gates was alone in the
house, and did not hear him calling
for help.
For about thirty minutes he tried
to attract attention but could make
no one hear. At one time Mrs. Gates
thought she heard some one calling
and went to the door but looking
around she could see no one and
went back into the house. Mr.
Gates finally dragged himself to the
door, and called and this time Mrs.
Gates heard him. She is a very frail
woman, and could not get him to
the house. She called the nearest
neighbors for help. Mr. Gates was
placed on a door and carried to the
house, and a physician summoned.'
An ambulance was called and he
was moved to St. Joseph hospital,
where it was found the left leg was
broken three inches below the hip
He passed a restless and very pain
ful night, but is getting along a?
wpU as rould be hoped for. The
bones will be set today or tomorrow
Mr. Gates is 66 years of age, and his
health is not up to normal.
