AGRICULTURAL STATISTICS Census Director Durand Asks Cc-Oper-atlon of Farmers. Form economists and scientists learned In agricultural problems, appointed as expert special agents for a brief term, are at pres rnt In Washington assisting Census Director Durand and his staff In the formulation of the agricultural sched ule of the thirteenth census, so that the questions to be asked by the cen sus enumerator shall be easily com prehended by the farmers of the coun try and so draw out the Information ordered by congress to be ascertained. At the same time these practical stips are being taken by the census bureau, the farmers themselves will be called upon to help push the statis tical plow over the country wide field of farm data. It will be suggested by Director Durand to the farmers that the work of securing accurate returns ;t the coming census of agriculture, which will be taken April 15. 1910, at the same time as the count of the pop ulation, will be greatly facilitated if the farmers will keep or provide some sort of written record of their farm operations during the year 1909. This effort to secure the farmers' personal ro-operntlon Is but one of a number of ways and means chosen In the effort to recti re an accurate, ex pedltlous and economical census con cerning population, agriculture, man ufnrturcB, mines and quarries, which are the subjects of Inquiry defined In the census law. WEEKLY TRADE REVIEW Bradstreet's Report on the Condition of Business. Bradstreet's state of trade says: As ihe season advances trade tends to show further expansion, and Indus trial lines are becoming more active Outputs are being increased by plants already In operation, and frequent re ports come to hand of resumptions by concerns that have been shut down for some time past. Under the circumstances employ meat Is more general, payrolls are larger and more money Is available for spending. Id a nutshell, trade Is good; Industry, particularly Iron and steel. Is active, and prospects are pleasant, the most notuble drawbacks being reduced yields of cotton and a smaller than earlier expected corn crop. Currency is moving to the country In larger volume, demand for money for general purposes Is Increasing, and naturally rates tend to stiffen. Collections are fair to good, the under current being in the direction of Improvement. Business failures for the week end ing with Sept. 2 were 160, against 201 last week, 210 In the like week of 1908. 130 In 1907. 121 In 1906 and 137 In 1905.

South Haven, Mich., has been dry for the last eighteen years, but It is now even dryer than It has been at any time during that peri od, for this week the search and seiz ure law enacted by the last legislature went Into effect. Ixcal drug stores, which reaped a harvest by selling beer, and other liquid refreshments for medicinal purposes," cannot do this unless the doctor issues a written pre scription, and this none of the physi cians cares to do. Already two drug stores have gone out of business and several more are expected to follow, for It is said that the strictly legitimate drug business will not pay the cost of lighting the stores.

They are four times as porous as bread.. They are nut-like, crisp and brown. And they are digestible, for every starch granule has been literally blast ed to pieces. That's about all we can say. Cold type cannot describe them. There is nothing with which to compare them. You will think the foods queer, and they are. But don't think that you will not like them. Last month, there were seventeen million dishes served in homes that have found them out. The folks who once taste them, demand them. The folks at your table are just like the rest. Serve them one package and all will say, "Let us have those puffed foods always." Puffed Wheat-1 0c Puffed Rice-1 5 c These are the foods invented by Trof. An derson, and this is his curious process: The whole wheat or rice kernels are put into sealed guns. Then the guns arc revolved for sixty minutes in a heat of 550 degrees. That fierce heat turns the moisture in the grain to steam, and the pressure becomes tremendous. Then the guns are unsealed, and the steam explodes. Instantly every starch granule is blasted into a myriad particles. The kernels of grain arc expanded eight times. Vet the coats arc unbroken, the shapes arc unaltered. We have simply the magnified grain. One package will tell you why people de light in them. Order it now.

Three hundred years ago, Henry Hudson, an English man in command of a Dutch expedition, with eighteen men, explored the Hudson River from Sandy Hook to Troy in his small craft, the "Half Moon." One hundred and ninety-eight years later, Robert Fulton established, with his steamboat, the "Clermont," a regular water service between New York and the towns along the Hudson river to the North. This year, New York City, with sister cities and towns along the Hudson, will celebrate these two achieve ments by a series of imposing observances, religious, his torical, military, naval, musical and literary, extending from September 25 to October 9. Replicas of the "Half Moon" and the "Clermont" have been built and will play a large part in the celebra tion. They will be the center of attraction in the great naval pageant on Saturday, September 25. The United States Government will have fifty-two warships anchored in the Hudson, and Great Britain, France, the Netherlands, Italy, Germany, Argentine, Guatemala, Mexico, and Cuba will be represented by war vessels. Two great parades of water craft will escort the "Half Moon" and the "Clermont" in triumphal procession past the war leviathans, first in the morning and again in the evening, when all the vessels will be illuminated. On September 28 there will be a grand historical pa geant, and on September 30 a big military parade in New York City. On October 1, the "Half Moon" and "Clermont" will proceed up the Hudson to Troy escorted by hundreds of river craft, including torpedo boats. A magnificent carnival parade will be held in New York on Saturday evening, October 2, which promises to eclipse all previous attempts, The Pennsylvania Railroad, the direct line to New York, with its unsurpassed service of fast express trains, will sell excursion tickets to New York for this period at reduced rates of fare. Full details concerning specific fares, dates of sale, re turn limits, and train service may be obtained of Ticket Agents, The Eepublican, $1.00.
