DO FIGURES TELL LIES?

DO FIGURES TELL LIES
 It is said figures do not He, but your correspondent thinks those farmers who have had their visit from the census enumerator generally feel there is some lying done or else they have some very large holes in their pocketbooks. Where l farmer is confident that his income is about $500 while the census makes it over $200O, he naturally stops to think 8 little. The census does not attempt to give the profits but income. A little thought will show that these figures are
 misleading. For instance the full value of all hay, corn, oats, rye, wheat, straw, etc., ie carried. Then the value of milk gold and used in the family, va,ue of beef sold, pork, poultry, eggs, etc. Now but little of hay or grain is sold from the farm but this same hay and grain is fed to produce these products hence these are considered ss income twice over. Again when you wish to arrive at the profits, there would be groceries, meat bills, new tools, machinery, repairs on same, on buildings, blacksmith bills, clothing for the family, grain and feed bought to produce milk, general family expenses, which are almost. ..innumerable. Were these deducted we might be able better to see how much farming paid. When we consider that there are 52 600 enumer- ators at work we can realize to some ex- tent the amount of work involved in talk ing census.
