Get Ready For the Farm Census.
Inasmuch as the fourteenth farm cen.
sus of Pennsylvania as well as of the
other states of the Union will be taken
January first next, Secretary of Agricul.
ture, Fred Rasmussen, suggests that it
will be well for farmers during the pre-
sent year to keep a record of all crops as
to acreage harvested and yield ; eggs,
poultry and milk produced and many
other matiers relating to the various
crops and livestock,
This will make the work easy for the
farmer to give intelligent answers to
the many inquiries contained iu the
schedule and will materially add to the
value of the rep. rt.
Everybody should pull together and
cooperate to make this census report the
best one ever taken. The Pennsylvania
Department of Agriculture is doubly
anxious about the matter as it will be
used as a check on the crop estimates
made for the present year as well as the
basis for future estimates,
Farming is a business proposition as
has been well demonstrated during
recent war, and farmers will do well
get into the habit of keeping records
their farm operations. It will cost Hi
and bring good returns,

History.
Want
Every county in the stgte has bern
requested to form a county committe to
co-operate with the Pennsylvania War
History Commission in the collection of
the records of the Great War. This
request has been sent in the first in-
stance to the Chairman of the County
Branthes of the Pennsylvania Council of
National Defense ; and the co-operation
of local historical societies and of all
wartime organizations is being obtained,
The County War History Committees
have in sone cases been working with
Memorial Cothmittees and Welcome
Committees. The records they are
gathering will include the service record
of every Pennsylvanian who has entered
the service of the United States or of
any of the Allies. There will also be
reports and narratives of the many or-
ganizations in the counties which engag-
ed in war work, In Berks County for-
ty-nine different organizations which |
performed some war service have been
affiliated in the war history work. Each
will prepare a detailed history of its own |
activities, and all will unite in the gener-
al history of the county's contribution
to the war,
When Your Car Gets “Stick in the
- Mud.
A resourceful motorist whose car has
been stuck in the mud does not always
have to fall back on a pair of mules to get
free. For such an emergency the
United States Tire Company offers some
suggestions that have proved valuable.
The first calls for having stored away
in the car a stack of old
newspapers. When the car gets stuck
and the wheels refuse to take hold, feed
in some of the old papers between the
tire and the mud. Usually only a few
will have to be worked in before the
wheels will begin to grip and the car
start foreward. This method of hand.
ling a difficult situation is so simple and
so uniformly successful, that every mo-
torist should know of it and carry a pile
ot old newspapers, unless he is equip.
ped with some other apparatus for such
a contingency,
* Here is the other method suggested
by the United States Tire Company :
Put the car in low, and if you cannot
feed the gas with your foot evenly, so
that the wheels will revolve slowly, put
Do not put
it on so that the wheels will not revolve
at all, but tightly enough to keep them
from revolving rapidly, With the

sons who entered the army or navy are |
