A. E. Anderson Says Old Idea That
Figures Are for a Few Is
Disappearing.
A. E. Anderson, state and federal
agricultural statistician, in a special
article Saturday, said the AAA
brought to farmers a greater appre
elation of accuracy In agricultural
statistics. "There Is also a greater
realization of the value of agricul
tural statistics and the part they play
In the economic situation of the coun
try," Anderson said.
"The old idea that agricultural
statistics were prepared for the bene
fit of a few classes Is rapidly disap
pearing. The experience of the past
few years has amply demonstrated
that prices respond abundantly to the
old law of supply and demand."
Anderson said the desire and de
mand for agricultural statistics has
never been greater than it Is now.
He pointed out that every type of
business was interested In statistics
as a measure of the farmers' buying
power.
"Most farmers and others have now
learned that a more satisfactory price
evel can be maintained if production
Is balanced with demand," Anderson
continued. "They have learned also
that it is unwise to deplete their soil
fertility In producing a surplus for a
foreign market that does not exist
except at ruinous prices."

HONEST COMMUNITY
from Saturday's Dally:
That the local people are honest
and minding their own affairs was
illustrated this morning in the busi
ness section of the city. Chief of
Police Libershal, coming down Main
street, was surprised to note two
persons entering the Donat liquor
store, which is a grave offense, as
under the "licker" ordinance these
places may only be entered between
the hours of 11 p. m. and 8 a. ni. by
the owner, who must be accompanied
by a member of the police force.
The chief approached and found
the men standing in the store. They
inquired as to the presence of the
owner and were informed by the
chief that no sales were-allowed un
til 8 o'clock.
The door to the store had been
left unlocked and only the honesty
or the lack of knowledge of the open
door prevented the place from being
highjacked out of several hundred
dollars worth of fine liquor.
