Big Task to Be Undertaken by Uncle
Sam We'll Know Each Oth
er Better Then.
I'erhnps outside of the numeration
the Jtritish government bus made in
India the United States, is preparing
to make the coming census one of the
most comprehensive the world has
known. It is proposed to secure sta
tistics relatiug to jropiiiation, agricul
ture, manufacture and mining. When
the work shall hnve been completed
there will be available a mass of in
formation of enormous value not only
in showing the progress of the coun
try since the last census, but in point
ing the way to social and other re
forms beneficial In the welfare of the
republic.
Although emigres has nut passed
the census bill on account of the con
troversy over a quesiimi of author
it v which arose between Mr. Nagel,
secretary of commerce and labor.!
and Mr. North, director of the cen- 1
sua, the latter i pivpnring the ma- j
chiiiery necessary tor beginning the
census promptly on July . The
schedules relating to population will
- include for each iuhahilnnt the name,
relationship to the head of the fam
ily, color, sex, age conjugal condition,
place of birth, place of birth of par
ents, number of years in the United
States nnd citizenship.
Tell of the Employed.
It will also state the occupation,
whether or not employe or employer,
and if employe, the number of months
employed during the year 1908, school
attendance, Jiteracy, tenure of home,
and whether or not the person des
cribed is a survivor of the Union or
confederate army or navy of the war
of the rebellion. Tt is proposed nlso
to obtain information as to the gen
eral physical condition of the people,
r, o that the inhabitants will be re
quired to report whether blind or
deaf or dumb, and if under 18 years
fifiire, whether crippled or defoi-m-rl.
For the enumeration of institu-
eri. I'or the enumern
(ions the schedules must include pau
pers, prisoners, juvenile delinquents,
in snne. feeble-minded nnd deformed.
Brief consideration of the informa
tion it is intended to obfaiu will show
its importance. T:i l;e. for instance,
inquiry in regard to oeenpntion nnd
unemployment. The British govern
inent hns just proposed n system of
insurnnee against unemployment in
England. At present there in no need
for the adoption of such n system in
the 1'nited Slates so fur as the fed
eral authorities nre nwnre. hut the
census will establish the extent to
which tnen ami women hnve heen out
of work and it may he useful in con
nection with the discussion certain to
come of the English plan in this conn
try. Something for the Farmers.
The farmers of the country will he
deeply interested in the schedules rc-
luting to agriculture. The informa
tion to be sought will not be used tUi
a bflsjs of taxation, nor communicnt- !
ed to any assessor. It will he treated
as strictly confidential. For census j
purposes a farm is to constitute land
under one management, though con-
sisttng ot different tracts upon which !
agricultural products, including an
imals or fowls are raised or produc
ed. It is intended to ascertain the
total number of acres of improved or
unimproved land, the value of the en
tire farm, of nil buildings on the
farm, and of all implements and ma
chinery belonging to the farm.
By the time the farmer has got
through answering questions of the
census enumerators he will have fur
nished information which will show
the degree of his prosperity, the need
of federal assistance in connection
with the cultivation of his property,
and the desirability of the social
movement advocated by President
Roosevelt for the purpose of making
country life more attractive to its
followers.
Every Business Named.
It is proposed to ascertain the
name and location of each establish
ment, the character of its organiza
tion, the character of business and
the kind of goods manufactured, the
amount of capital actually invested,
the number of proprietors, the firm
member, the copartners, the stnek-
