been demonstrated that certain individuals
were breathing only 100 cubic feet of air,
whereas The amount should have been ten
tines as much at the lowest reasona Bile
calculation: while the passage of this viii
ated air from cell to cell alongside of the

deaths chiefly to this cause, while the
effect upon the general health of the
prisoners has been often marked. and in
some instances permanent.
In the second place. the dampness Of
some of the ground cells has been produc-
tive Of rheumatism and pulmonary di
sease. The muddy and polluted water which
the prisoners drink a good portion of the
time, has also been responsible for OUT
breaks of Intestinal and other ailments.

STATISTICS ON CRANBERRY CULTURE.
Importance of Industry to be Fully Repre-
scented in Twelfth Census Schedules.

Mr.. L. G. Powers. the Chief Sta It's
tician in charge of the agricult ural
investigations of the Twelfth Census,
is making an especial effort to insure
the adequate and complete representa-
tiOn Of all branches of agricultural
industry by the statistics which
will be collected under his direction.
At the same time he has not con-
sidered it advisable to place upon the
general agricultural schedule which
will be placed in the hands of the
enumeratorS, very detailed inquiries
concerning crops. the production of
which is strictly localized. Such
products will be provided for in
special schedules, which will be dis
tributed in the localities only in
which the crops to which they relate
are grown.
Among the industries to receive
treatment Of this character Gran berry
culture is one of the most important.
The special schedule to be used in
this investigation has been prepared,
and will be distributed during the
present month, at which time it
is believed that nearly the entire
production for the year 1899, will have
been marketed The main depend
ence in this investigation will be upon
schedules to be transmitted and
returned by mail and therefore its
success will depend very largely upon
the interest manifested by cranberry
growers. If they cooperate cordially
with the census office, the Importance
and extent of their industry will be
fully represented in the report on
agriculture. and its rank among the
special agricultural industries will
receive suitable public recognition.
If they fail to do so. however, their
industry cannot but appear unfayOr-
ably. as compared with those which
are more fully represented in the
census statistics. The inquiries to be
made will include questions concern
ing the ownership of each plantation
or bog, as it is Of course desirable to
show what proportion of the total
acreage is cultivated by those who
own the land. and what proportion by
tenants. An attempt will be made
TO Segregate the area in natural vines
from that in planted vines. and an
inquiry concerning the number Of
vines planted during the last three
years has been framed in order to
ascertain the number of young vines.
