THE INDUSTRIAL CENSUS.
How Statistics of Manufactures Are To
Be Collected.

How Statistics of Manufactures Are To
BE Collected.
On the I'd day of June the work or col
report of the Eleventh Census will be
inaugurated throughout the entire coun-
try. The value of this report must de-
pend wholly upon the accuracy and
t~horoughness with which manufacturers
answer the questions propounded.
The personal interests of every manu-
~facturer are involved in the character of
the report on Manufactures. 1t will be
quoted for the next ten years as the Off
cial announcement of The exact indus
trial condition of the country, and will be
the basis for any future legislation that
may be enacted in regard to the wants of
the people, whether engaged in agricul-
tural or mechaical pursuits. Therefore
it is OF vital Importance to each manu-
facturer that an accurate report shall be
made.
The Superintendent of Census has
taken every possible precaution in the
preliminary work TO make this census
complete and satisfactory, and the earnest
cooperation of those engaged in product
i've industry is all that is now necessary
TO secure valuable results.
Every manufacturer should bear in
mind that his anSwerS to the questions
relating to his business are held strictly
confidential. are not disclosed to any com
petitor or TO other persons, and are NOT
used BY the government as predicate for
the purposes OF taxation or license, or ID
any way to adversely affect his individual
business. This assurance is printed on
each schedule over the signature of the
Superintendent of Census.
The expert special agent in charge Of
this branch OF census work, Mr.. Frank r.
Williams, has personally visited the
principal manufacturing centres and
consulted representative manufacturers
tho publishers of trade journals, and
practical business men generally, for The
purpose OF ascertalning the proper scope
Of the inquiry for each branch Of manu-
facture. The questions contained in the
census schedules are those suggested by
the manufacturers and other persons
most interested in the progress of the
country, and cover ground absolutely es.
sential to the proper presentation Of its
industrial conditions and resources.
