occurring them, in fact the primary step,
would be the collection of data to
ihow to what extent the farms and the
lomes-the basis Of our civilization

endent of the Eleventh Census, in re-
,ly to correspondence on this subject,
lays that the act authorizing the census

'hese data, that before he can undertake
he work there must be special legisla-

With view OF creating such a de-

without delay to Washington:
