Nt KnnmeratliMi AVIII lln Taken In June, ItlOn, ut (lie I'nxl uct of 1HHU. Tlio first rciilly valuable census of Agriculture in the United States was taken in 1850, of the crops of 1840. Thu next enumeiation of ngricultnro will bo taken in Juno, 1000, of tho prod ucts of 1800. lustend of recording several farms on one schedule in tho Twelfth census, ns heretofore, each farm will bo accorded a separate blank, the entries on which will not bo known to nny save sworn officers of tho department. No names will bo published in connection with information secured from tho pcoplo. Tax assessors, collectors, nnd equal izers cannot serve ns enumerators, or have access to thu census returns, or to tho information therein contained. There nro more than 5,000,000 farms, plantations, ranches, stock ranges, and market gardens in tho United States, nil of which, for census purposes, will bo designated as "farms." A "farm" is all tho land cultivated or hold for agricultural purpose under ono management, whether in a tingle body or separate parcels. Tho enumerator will ask for tho sizo nnd value of each farm, the value of buildings, nnd tho aggregate value of all machinery, implements, vehicles, harnesses, etc., usel thereon; and tho amount of land owned nnd leased, re spectively, by said occupant. He will also nsk for acreage and vnluo of each crop, and tho acreage of improved, unimproved and irrigated lands. The designation "each crop" in cludes nil grains, cotton, corn, rice, sugai cane, sugar beets, sorghum, hay, clover, wild grasses, gathered forage, flax, hemp, hops, peanuts, tobacco, seeds, nuts, tropical fruits, small fruits, orchard fruits, nursery and greenhouse stock, broom corn, Irish po tatoes, sweet potatoes and yams, nil vegetables, including the product of all family, truck, nnd market guldens, etc.; nlso new or unusual crops, when found. Tlio enumerator will ask for the number and valuo of the live stock on the farm June 1, 1000, which will be reported under a number of heads, such as horses, colts, mules, asfes, cows, heifers, steers, calves, bulls, ewes, rams, lumbs, swine, gouts, chick ens (including guinea fowl), turkeys, geese, ducks, bees, etc. Ho will also ask for the quantity and value of milk, cream, butter, cheese, raisins, prunes, molasses, sirup, sugar, eggs, beeswax, honey, wool, wine, cider, viuegnr, dried and evaporated fruits, forest products, poultry nnd meut products, aud generally, all ar ticles made nt home, or for the home, from farm materials in 1809. I f n person who moves from n farm between the end of the crop year 1899 and June 1, 1900, will leave a written record of the products nnd crops of thnt farm for 1899 where it will reach the appropriate enumerator, the statis tics for his opemth ni for thnt year will not bo lost. Ho will bo required to give the enumerator of tho district in which ho lives on Juno 1, 1900, tho ncreagc, value, buildings, machinery, implements, and live stock of the farm he then occupies. If every farmer will begin at once to prepare a careful record of all the facts which the enumerator will be in stucted to record in June, 1900, ho will savo time for himself and the offi cer, and insure more accurato returns to tho government. Tho twentieth century will bejin on January, 1, 1901. Therefore, the pend ing ceusua will afford to future genera tions a measure of the strength nnd condition of tho United States nt tho threshold of tho new hundred yenr cycle. For that reason everyone should take an active interest in making it as nearly perfect ns possible. If each farmer will mako his own roport per fect, the aggregated rejiort for every community, and for tho nation, will be perfect.

BRADSTREET'S REPORT. Fmornlilt Inereune of Trade Oanw pared to I.niit Year. Hradstreot's says: Satisfactory ad vices ns to expanding trndo in dry goods and kindred lines como (torn a number of mnrkots. That the aggre gate business of tho country is of good volumo otherwise is, however, indi cated by detailed reports of increases iu trndo, as compared with lust year, confirmed by satisfactory railroad earn ings roports, by fair gains in banb clearings and by roports of hotter de mands for money in commercial chan nels. A yenr ago, it may bo recalled, oxtrctnely stormy weather was exper ienced, nnd somo effects, notably thosa on winter sown crop, wore very unfa vorable. This yenr opposite condition! havo ruled and though somo talk ot lack of snow in grain-growing regional is heard no widespread damngo from cold weather is yet noted. In fact, unseasonably mild weather has been an appreciable effect on several industries, notably those engaged in tho manufac ture of footwear, in discouraging snlet of tho same actually causing tho shut down of somo rubber manufactories, nnd also in the lumber nnd ico busi ness. Tlio scarcity of snow iu tho Northwest will unquestionably affect the log cutting season, and a finnca tone as to values is already perceptible, notwithstanding talk of labor troubles affecting tho building trades. Tho foreign demand for iron and rteel seems likely to have a most impor tant effect upon prices of the domestio product. It is conceded that any im portant recession in value would b met by a heavy enlarged export move ment.
