What Will the 1920 Census Shew in
Centre County?
In just a little more than a month
now thousands of census enumerators
will be at work all over the United
States taking the 1920 census, not
only of men, women and children, but
horses, cattle, sheep and hogs, farms
under cultivation and farms lying
idle, and every conceivable thing that
enters into the life and stability of
this country. The government census
is similar to the proprietor of a large
department store taking an inventory
to find out what he has on hand and
what he has gained during the pre-
vious year.
$1.50
1.75
2.00
And, while it will naturally be in- |
teresting to know the results attain-
ed in the United States it will be of
greater interest locally to know the
result in Centre county. Have we
gained or lost in population, and how
much? Only a true and correct cen-
sus will tell this, hence it is not so!
much up to the census enumerators
when they make their rounds to get
a correct census as it is to the individ-
uals. Hence when the enumerator
visits your house don’t evade answer-
ing his or her questions. Give the
answers cheerfully and willingly, and
what is of greater importance, give
them correctly. The information is
not given to the public individually
but only collectively, and the size of
your family, the stock you own or the
amount of your wealth is but an atom
in the final summing up and it re-
quires that atom to make the whole
complete.
While Centre county is the largest
county in the State in the number of
square miles it contains it has not the
largest number of farms by any
means. This, of course, is because of
the large acreage of mountain land in
the county. But will it show at the
next census more farms under culti-
vation than there were ten years ago?
And will everything else show the
normal increase that a decade of
prosperity should show? These are
things that every Centre countian is
interested in, and that is the reason
that everybody in Centre county
should show every courtesy to the!
enumerators when they make their
rounds.

Water Company Revises Rates.
The Public Service Commission an-
nounces that the Montola Water com-
pany, distributing water
new tariff of rates with the Commis-
sion to become effective January 1st,
1920.
The new tariff substitutes a read-
iness-to-serve charge, not including
any water, for the present minimum
charge, which included some water.
The lowest readiness-to-serve charge |
is $2.00 per quarter in place of the :
former minimum charge of 50 cents
per month for a five-eighth meter
with but one outlet.
In addition to the readiness-to-
serve charge there is an output charge
of 10 cents per thousand gallons for
the first 100,000 gallons per quarter
and 4 cents per thousand gallons in
excess of that amount.
The first rates are increased
throughout. The charge for the first
fixture for ordinary domestic users is
increased from $6.00 per annum to
$3.00 per quarter. :
, Under “building ° purposes,”s the
rates for “concrete” have been in-
creased from 5 cents to 10 cents per
cubic yard; and for
from 20 cents to 50 cents per 100
square yards.
Public fire protection charges have
been revised and increased from $10
per hydrant to $10 per hydrant plus
$250 per mile of main 4 inches or
greater in diameter.
A penalty of 10 per cent. is added
if bills are not paid within 20 days.
Deposits are required where a con-
sumer is other than a property own-
er, where none was required before,
and charges for testing meters are
stated.
A charge of 50 cents per 1000 tiles
has been added for tile masonry and
also a charge for concrete paving of
12 cents per 100 square feet.
The tapping fee is reduced from !
$8.00 to $3.00.
New Board of County Commissioners
Organize.
While the “Watchman” was just a
little previous last week in announc-
ing the selection of chief clerk and as-
sistant clerk to the new board of
County Commissioners, it was not
wrong in the appointees named. In
fact the Commissioners-elect had tak-
en no official action until last Satur-
day when a meeting was held in the
sheriff’s office. Mr. Harter, Mr.
Austin and Mr. Yarnell were present
and the board organized by electing
Mr. Austin president.
They named Harry Keller as com-
missioner’s attorney; H. W. Irwin,
chief clerk; H. C. Valentine, assistant
clerk; J. C. Showers, janitor, and Dr.
M. W. Reed, county physician. No
appointment has yet been made of the .
other janitor.

GREENE.—Two weeks ago the
“Watchman” announced the fact that
E. B. Greene would leave Bellefonte
for his home in Florida after appar-
ently recovering his health during his
two month’s sojourn in Bellefonte,
therefore it was quite a shock to learn
that he had died at his home in the
south on Tuesday morning. Mr.
Greene went south from Altoona
three years ago and locating at Oca-
GATES. — Blair Gates, a well
known and highly respected citizen of
Gatesburg, passed away at his home
in that village at five o’clock last Sat-
urday morning as the result of a
stroke of paralysis. Shortly after
eating a hearty dinner on Thursday
he drove to Marengo for a load of
coal. A short time after his arrival
at that place Hugh McAfee, of
Stormstown, also reached there for
‘coal. He noticed a team standing at

He then learned the trade of a car-

tion company he and his brother El-

on Monday morning put a force of
men at work on the foundation for
the new steel hangar at the Belle-
‘ fonte aviation field to take the place
of the one destroyed by fire two
weeks ago. The hangar is now on the
way to Bellefonte, and as it is con-
structed in sections ready to put to-
gether it will not take long to get it
up after it arrives.
Mr. Towers, the new manager of
the field, arrived on Sunday and with
Mr. Blakesley, who returned to Belle-
fonte last Saturday, has been busy
, getting things in shape for the new
building.
The new wireless station was com-
pleted last week and was tested out
on Saturday evening. The station is
so constructed that its circuit is prin-
cipally east and west and its range is
as yet undetermined. So far it has
not been equipped with a receiver but
all messages sent have been easily

Results of Corn Variety Tests.
{ In the spring several varieties of
corn were planted to try to develop a
"better variety of corn’ for various
sections of thé county. A few local
varieties as well as several varieties
‘from other counties and States were
used in these tests. The Spring Mills
test was located on Hagerstown lime-
stone soil and the Julian test in De-
Kalb stone loam, according to R. H.
Olmstead, county farm agent.
The corn was all weighed, shelling
