year. Many OF the glnners already
keep very accurate and complete rec
ords. 1t is not the purpose of the CEN
sus office to interfere with these in
any way. There are other ginners who
do not keep accurate and detailed rec
ords, but who rely on very crude sys-
TENS of keeping account of the work
of their gins. In some cases they rely
altogether on memory. 1t is obvious
that much more accurate returns can
be obtained IL these men can be sup
piled with record books and can be
induced to keep accurate records.
Each of the field agents Is supplied,
of course, with the census office list
of gins in his territory, but his in
structiOns impress upon him the inn
portance of finding every new gin and
every gin in his territory that may
possibly have been overlooked last
year. He is particularly cautioned to
make diligent search for private gins
that Is. gins operated on farms and
plantations. He Is required to make
a report for every gin in his territory,
whether it has been operated during
the season or not.
Five reports are to be made on this
years crop. The first is to include all
cotton ginned from the growth of 1902
up to and including Aug. 81. The
canvass for this report is to begin on
Sept /, and all reports are to be mail
ed to the census office not later than
Saturday, Sept. ~. The second report
is to include all cotton ginned up to
and including Oct. 49, That is, this
report will show the quantity of cot
ton ginned in the September report,
plus the amount ginned since Aug. 81
Returns for this report are to be mail
ed not later than Saturday, Oct. 81.
The third report will show all cotton
Sinned up to and including Nov. IS,
and returns must be mailed not later
than Monday. Nov. 3d. The fourth re-
port will show all cotton ginned up to
and including Dec. 49, and returns must
mailed not later than Saturday, Dec
26. The fifth and final report of the
crop of 1903 will show all cotton gin
ned from the growth of this year up
to the date of the report, together
with carefully prepared estimate of
the amount remaining to be ginned,
! in the event that glnners have not
| closed down at the time of the final
canvass. The date of this report has
not yet been definitely determined by
the census office, hut the canvass for
it will be made Immediately upon the
general closing of the ginning season,

month of March
