on the first day of June, with their
sex and age, and whether white,
black, mulatto, quadroon, octoroon,
or Chinese, japanese, or Indian.
Inquiry will be made also of every
person as to whether they are single,
married, widowed, or divorced; and,
if married, whether married during
the census year. The place OF birth
of each person, and the place of birth
of the father and mother Of each per-
son, will also be called for, as we'll as
a statement as to the profession,
trade, or occupation followed and the
number of months unemployed dur
ing the census year. For all persons
ten years of age or over a return

to the number able to read and write,
and also the number who can speak
English. For those who can not
speak English the particular Ian
guage or dialect spoken by them will
be ascertained. For children of
school age, also, the number of
months they attended school will be
recorded by the census enumerators.
In the case of mothersan inquiry will
be made as to the number of children
they have had, and the number of
these children living at the present
time. This inquiry is to be made of
all women who are or have been
married, including all who are wid>
ows or have been divorced. For
eign-born males of adult age, that is,
q years of age or over, will be asked
as to the number of years they have
been in the United States, and
whether they are naturalized or have
taken out naturalization papers. OF
the head of each family visited the
question will be asked as to the num-
Der of persons in the family, and
whether his home is owned or hired;
also, if owned, whether the home is
free from mortgage incumbrance.
If the head of the family is a farmer,
similar inquiries will be made con-
corning the ownership of the farm.
In addition to these inquiries, all of
which are made on the population
schedule, the law under which the
census is taken makes provision for
special inquiries concerning such Of
the population as may be mentally
or physically defective in any res
pect, that is, insane, feebleminded,
deaf, blind, or crippled, or who may
be temporarily disabled by sickness,
disease, or accident at the time of the
enumerator's visit. Certain special
inquiries will also be made concern
ing inmates Of prisons and reforma-
tories and of charitable and benevo-
lent institutions. Besides this, a
statement will be called for concern
ing all persons who have died during
the census year, giving their name,
age, sex, occupation, and cause of
death.
This official count Of the people
comes but once in ten years, and
every family and every person
should consider it to be their duty to
answer the questions of the census
enumerators Willingly and promptly,
so that definite and accurate infor-
nation may be gained concerning
the 100000 people living within
the bounds Of this great country.
