Texas farmer* and
will soon to Kctirinf • espy of
the I960 agricultural census ques-
tionnaire and each ia requested to
fill it out and have it ready for the
census taker when he calls next
month. The questionnaire is being
sent to all rural route boxholders
and to boxholders in small towns
where there are a considerable
number of fanners. The copy
should not be discarded, rays Ty-
rus R. Timm, extension economist
of TexaJ AAM College, but should
be studied carefully and complete-
ly filled in with accurate informa-
tion. Here's why:
The Census of Agriculture pro-
vides an inventory of our farm*
and farm resources. It gives facts
indispensable in dealing with cur-
rent farm problems. It benefits
everybody, says Timm, because it
gives a picture pf what is happen-
ing in the rural areas of the state
and nation and includes farts on
land use, crop and livestock pro-
duction, how many people live on
farms, kinds of machinery used,
farm home facilities and a large
number of other equally impor-
tant itema.
In most states, it provides the
major source of county figures on
agriculture as well as the basic
information on the changes, growth
and improvements in agriculture
in each county. Timm points out
that the information taken from
the census often is used in plan-
farming and rural life and
organisations likewise base many
of their decisions on this informa-
tion. The annual estimates of the
production of crops and livestock
products are baaed upon figures
obtained in the nationwide farm
census but most important, it pro-
vides the basis for the making of
allocations among counties of quo-
tas for the acreage of many impor-
tant farm crops,
Timms says the information you
give the census enumerators is
confidential and cannot be used
Tor taxation, investigation or regu-
lation. An Act of Congress pro-
vides the protection. Every person
who fills out a census form or
answers the questions asked uy
an enumerator are likewise re-
quired to give accurate ar.d truth-
ful information.
The accuracy of the farm cen-
sus will depend upon the coopera-
tion of every farmer and ranch-
man. The accuracy of the county
totals depepd upon accurate re-
turns from each individual for
county totals are obtained by add-
ing the individual reports to-
gether.
When you get the agricultural
census questionnaire, don’t throw
it away, hut answer every ques-
tion asked completely and accur-
ately for as Timm Points out, the
farm census is mighty important,,
to agriculture.

To See New Model
In Dallas April 6 \
L. C. Worthington of the Gra-
Jiam Nash Co. will .join other deal-
ers from this area at a private pre-
view of the new Nash “Rambler”
to compete in the low-priced auto-
mobile field. The new car will be
an addition to the Nash line of
cars and does not replace current
Ambassador or Statesman mod-
els. The preview will be held in
Dallas on April 6.
According to Mr. Worthington,
the first public showing of the
new Rambler will take place in
mid-April when it will be unveiled
by dealers across the nation.
*•'n i Human’ private preview is
“top secret” to avoid premature
announcement. Shipments of the
new car* to dealers is now under
way for showings April 14. The
new Ramhler should not be con-
fused with Nash Motors’ small
^experimental "SURVEY" car.

toons one of the girls says: “Isn’t

Nvw books to tto Graham Pub-

. . . Rosamond Cantillon flaunted
her rod cloak of courage through
an 18th century world none too
eaey for an Irish sxlls’i daughter
with the too-envied gifts of beau-
ty, gaiety, and an innocent lure
for men.
The two men who loved her,
Geoffrey and Ian, shared with
Rosamond a series of adventures
that began in Scotland during the
Jacobite Rebellion, continued in a
London pub where the hard,
gay, brilliant life of the rich and
the sordid life of the poor endured
side by side. You will be caught
by a romance and high adventure,
by the glittering moments of dan-
ger, gaiety, and excitement fasR-
ioned by an expert storyteller into
an unforgettable tale.

On a broad canvas, agninst the
unconquered land of Australia in
the years 1799 through 1808. Elea-
nor Dark has laid STORM OF
TIME and into the story she has
woven the fabric of a whole so-
ciety. An historical novel of first
rank, its characters come from all
levels of the curiously stratified
society, the government officials,
the military, the large landown-
ers, convicts, natives, and outlaws.

THE TUDOR WENCH, a biog-
raphy of Queen Elisabeth by Els-
wyth Thane is on the shelves at
the library, and is a portrait of a
great and fascinating character in
the making. Queen Elizabeth died
at seventy, after a reign of forty-
five years, but there was a life-
time behind her when she
to the throne at twenty-five, and
it is of these early years thst
Elswyth Thane writea. She draws
a picture of a vital, attractive girl,
the one of Henry VIII’s three chil-
dren whom that extraordinary
monarch admired most. Not unt'l
after her father’s death did Elisa-
beth become a fhetor'in English
polities, and thereafter her life
was never secure.
