THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM. THURSDAY JULY 18, 1918.
THRESHED TO REPORT MONTHLY OfL WHEAT YIELD
. S. to Obtain Information of Grain Crops Through the Threshers. . War emergency reports that must be filled out every month by threshermen operating In Wayne county, have been received by J. C. Kline, Wayne eounty agriculture agent, from the United States department of agriculture. The Mahks were sent to threshermen throughout the county Thursday, and if there are any who do not receive the blanks they are asked to notify Mr. Kline at once. The government requires that each thresherman make out a monthly report, and those who fall to do so, Mr. Kline said, will certainly get Into trouble. The reports have been ordered by the government for the purpose of obtaining definite information concerning food and food materials, in order that government agencies and the general public may make plans for Increasing food production, for promoting efficient distribution, and Sot directing conservation and utlllratlon. "It Is especially Important at this time," the instructions printed on the back of the reports say, "to have prompt and definite information with regard to the wheat crop. While the department of agriculture obtains reports for crops through its regular crop, .reporting service, it is thought desirable-to securer additional information concerning wheat direct from the threshers. Threshers are therefore requested, and are required by a law passed by. congress, to fill out the nchedule in accordance with instructions, and return It promptly to the county agent." Full Instructions, as referred to above, are printed on the opposite side of the report blanks. Each thresher Is required to report the number of acres threshed during the month and thenumber of bushels of wheat for 1918, and also for 1917.

BEALLVIEW MAY SOON BE TAKEN IN CITY LIMITS
Though Matter is Under Consideration no Official Action Has Been Taken.
At a meeting Wednesday afternoon at which representatives of the Commercial club and the South Side Improvement association and the city were represented, various phases of the matter were presented and discussed, but no statement was authorized as to the action taken. It Is said, however, that the disposition -seemed to be to approve of the stand of the South Side Improvement association favoring annexation.
Dr. Pierce to Serve as Coroner Until August. I Dr. R. J. Pierce, deputy coroner, will serve as corcner until the expiration of the term of Dr. Roy Morrow, who has resigned to take up hospital work in South Dakota. Dr. Morrow's term will end Aug. 1. The new coronor, whe will be appointed by the governor, has not yet been announced.
THE PALLADIUM FOR RESULTS
Beallview may soon become a part of the city of Richmond and when in position to receive the benefits, accruing as a result of annexation, there is every probability that the "child" of the South Side Improvement Association, already healthy and , vigorous, will attain the growth that it deserves. Though t.o official aetion has been taken, the matter is under consideration by the city, the Richmond Commercial Club and the South Side Improvement Association, . the latter tody, to which Bealview owes its existence, having already given its official endorsement of the plan. The Board of Works and Mayor Zimmerman, it is said, have not gone on record officially as to what the attitude of the city will be toward such a project, but it is the understanding that Beallview will be regarded as a valuable asset to the municipality and
that the cost of benefits bestowed will j be fully offset by benefits that the city j
will derive. Need Definite Plan. The South Side Improvement Association, which has developed Beallview up to the present time, realizes, it is said, that the time has come when a definite plan for improvements must be made, and such a plan, based on scientfic principles of town-building, cannot be arriginated and carried into effect until Beallview Is annexed. Prospective factory locations do not appear inviting unless a system 0 sewerage is planned; and the industries now located there also must have relief in this respect before they can expand. Home builders for like reasons will hesitate to make Beallview a permanent place of residence until the needed facilities are at least assured for the near future.
The question of annexation, it is (
said, presents some knotty problems at the outset that have caused some difference of opinion among members
of the city administration, the South j
Side Improvement Association and the Commercial Club, but according to the information at hand, there is no unsurmountable obstacle in the path of the plan and the rough places are likely to be ironed out in conferences that are being held.
