LIVE-STOCK CENSUS.
Aa Enumeration of Pure-Ursa Farm
Animals Will Ue Part of
Twelfth Ceneae.
An enumeration of the pare-b'od or
pare-bred farm auiuiala in the Lulled
Sutei will be a part of thetwelftti ceu
ut. The main schedule for agrtcnltura
provides for returning the number,
June 1, 1900, of all pure-blooded ani
mal! recorded or eligible to record, on
the farm."
While the treasury department, in
administering the tariff laws relative to
pure-bred animals, does not accept the
verbal statements of owners or agents,
hut requires certified evidence in writ
ing of the pedigree claimed, the census
enumerator will be compelled to rely
pretty generally, if not wholly, upon
terbal replies as to whether stock ia
pure-bred.
Ai several monthi must elapse before
the census of live stock will be taken,
Director Merriam requests that all who
are not certain whether their unregis
tered animals are grade, or pure-bred
and "eligible to record," take steps
definitely to settle the mooted point,
and thus lie prepared without hesitation
to give the enumerator accurate infor
mation telative to this interesting
inquiry.
Kheep may lie lecorded by Hocks;
bnt other animals are recorded by indi
viduals. The herd books show that
about 750,000 cattle have been regis
tered in the United States and it is
estimated that about 350,000 are liv
ing. If breeders will make accurate
returns of their pure-bred animals to
the censns enumerators next June, a
correct basis will be secured for show
ing future expansion in high grade live
stock. Otherwise the efforts of the
census officers will lie of small value.

Bradatreet'a save Some of the irreg
ularities are visible in the general trade
and industrial situation, the results of
the working of couuter currents in va
rious Unas. but. taken as a whole, the
general outlook retains the most en
couraging features noted for some time
past iu these colume. Favorable re
ports as to retail distribution and aa to
collections come from Sontheru, West
ern and Northwestern markets, due to
better weather. Advances in wages of
soft coal miners, of stove molders, and
of other workers allied to the iron and
steel Industry would teem to potut to
labor conditions retaiuiug most of the
favorable features which hava recently
made them features of favorable re
mark. Sugar is higher, mainly owing to the
growing strength of raw material.
Wheat and corn, among the bread
stuffs, have been aeaker, reflecting an
other one of those short swings iu
prices which have been a feature of the
former market, but also expected heavy
shipments from Argentina and good es
timated crop reports (mm the South
and West. In the Central West, wheat
crop advices are disappointing, MUV

Wool remains one of the soft spots iu
the market, and though a little more

last, concessions are easier to obtain
and prices are quotably lower.
