THE POLICE CENSUS
Taking Will Begin Next
Wednesday Morning.
INSTRUCTIONS ISSUED
MORE INFORMATION REQUIRED
THAN IN FORMER YEARS.
Major Sylvester Has Been Minute In
His Circular as to the Ground
to Be Covered.

Wednesday morning of next week five
dozen or more policemen will start from
their respective precincts with large books
under their arms and supplies of sharpened
pencils In their pockets and visit every
house In the District for the purpose OF get
ting accurate figures to show the popula-
ton of the District. Some of the men who
will be detailed upon the work participated
In the work of taking the last census, but
others will perform the duty for the first
time. 1t Is no easy matter to perform such
work, and some unfavora BILE comment has
been INDUCED in because the police have 1t
to do. There are complaints being made
almost every day because of the insufficient
number of policemen to patrol the Streets
and county roads, and the taking of so
many men from active duty will greatly
cripple the police service for a short time
Major Sylvester has made no complaint
however, but is doing most of the prelim-
mary work. He had charge of the taking
of the last census. and is therefore familiar
with the work. He has had the blank
books prepared for the of the men who
are to act as census takers, and has also
prepared written Instructions for them.
Some little thought had to be given to this
matter In order to insure accuracy. Much
more information is to be recorded this
year than was recorded in 1897, when the
last police census was taken.
Previous Censuses.
The police census taken in 1892 showed
total population of 25S. 431, while that of
1897 showed total Of 277,7S2. In 1882 the
report Of the chief of police gives the fig
ures in the city, county and Georgetown
as follows:
Whites. Colored.
Washington city. ................ 1925 SO 404
Georgetown .................... 1894 1880
County Observation-Disclosures. 1902 IL 1897
Total, 25e, 431.
Five years later the figures showed the
totals of the three parts of the District as
follows:
Whites. Colored.

Dancers to Traffic.

when Prince Henry made his long
journey through the country said an
old railroad official, talking of recent
railroad accidents, the schedules were
so arranged that his train never
passed a moving train anywhere on
the road The deadly danger from
that source is we'll known among rail-
road men, although they are not much
given to talking about it. Accidents
to these long merchandise trains are
constantly occurring.
mot quarter of them get into
the papers, yet hardly a day passes
that the papers do not have an &C
count of one-.trains late owing to q
freight wreck both tracks blocked
two hours by coal train smash,' and
SO on. The public gives little heed to
them, but they are the greatest dah'
ger in modern railroading."

gravel and stone with the surface. I
am intensely interested in cultivating
1t to learn whether can produce al
falfa on this kind of land with proper
cultivation or not; that is the ques-
tion.
/ am sowing twenty-five pounds to
the acre of alfalfa seed this morning,
and eight hundred pounds of high
grade fertilizer to the acre, am har-
four directions. That rakes the seed
in about LIZ inches, then l shall roll
it down lightly and see what will come
of it. There has been no rain of any
account on the field for nearly two
months, dry and light as an ash heap
down at least six inches, with every
thing in the shape of vegetation killed
out so that the alfalfa will have the
best chance it can have in such dry
section of land.
My grass file of II 1-8 acres, from
which produced eighty seven tons Of
well-dried hay in two crops last year,
is locking very we'll indeed. It's aver
age height at the present time is not
far from twenty inches, as it stands.
and most of it stands so thick that at
that height you can't see into it two
inches. / wish your readers could
come here and see 1t. If they would
think they would change their minds
in relation to my statement of being
of the Ananias type.-George M. Clark

Roots for Pasture.

Experiments have repeatedly shown
that it pays to let swine do their own,
harvesting with certain root crops, Al
though it must be remembered that
other feed constituting as nearly bal
anced ration as possible must also ce
fed. Mangles or beets (sugar beets)
sown now and cultivated more or less
during the summer will make q pas
ture crop on to which the swine may
be turned in. the fall with excellent re-
suits. When turned on to such a pas
ture they should be permitted to do as
they please, which is generally to con-
sumo the tops and then dig out the
roots.
Of course, the seed must be sown on
fairly good soil and soil that does not
bake too hard, else the swine. can not
get at the roots. We make~it a prac-
tice to turn them into this field tor
about two hours daily and keep up the
barn feed OF a mixture of corn meal
and middlings, which, with the roots,
constitute an almost perfect ration.
Sometimes the pasture is varied by
giving them turn on to the last crop
of rape or on to grass of some kind
and the change is satisfactory: Handled
Kin this way the cost OF preparing the
bag for the fattening period is conf
paratiyely small and the animal is in
excellent shape to- take on weight
quickly.-Indiapapolis News.

Csine a Separator.

Much of the trouble with the cream
from farm separators is, according TO
a contributor IN Farm Stock and
Home, the result of misconception on
the part of the dairymen and of will
ful Misrepresentation on the part Of
the separator company or agent that
sold the separator Whenever it is
stated that it is not necessary to wash
the separator bowl every time it is
used, or that it is possible to properly
wash it without taking it apart, the
person making such statements Is
either ignorant or knave. In either
case he is mis.stating facts. 1t is true
that visible dirt may be washed of,
but the worst form of filth, the filthy
bacteria, remain and develop, ready to
contaminate the first cream that passes
through it. Not even the agent that
may make such statements would be
willing to eat from dishes that had
been washed but once day. II we
examine the argument. we soon see
how false it Is. For instance, if it is
possible to Use the separator twice
day and wash it but once, why may
we not use it three times or four times
without washing? Or If it be possible
to wash the machine without taking it
apart but once day why take It
apart more than once in two days or
| three or four, ad infnitum?
! The sooner users of farm machines
awake to the fact that the separator
must be thoroughly cleaned every time
| it Is used the sooner 1t will be pos
sible to deliver cream in first-cIass con-
dition. Another defect is the result OF
holding milk and cream on the farm
too long. This is especially true with
cream. 1t is true cream may be kept
sweet for several days, but under the
existing conditions Of the average farm
it is impossible to keep cream free
] from bacterial contamination; and
| while it is possible to stop the Tactic
and acid bacteria (the souring kind)
from developing by keeping the cream
or milk at low temperature it is i'm
possible to stop the other kinds from
growing, consequently milk or cream
held for some time develop off f1a7ors
Milk or cream. like women, may grow
old without becoming sour. The soon
er milk or cream is gotten into the
hands of the buttermaker, the better
butter he can make of it, and conss-
| quently the more money may be re-
turned to the patrons.

A Livestock Hint.

Everybody who is familiar with the
work Of the live stock breeders must
recognize the importance of their
work, and the strides that they have
made in the various lines of livestock
breeding; in beef and dairy cattle; IN
the production of pork and wool ana
in the speed and power OF tnelr
horses. The results of their work are
the reward of vigilance, care and we'll
directed energy. However great may
be the work of live stock breeders, Is
must take second place when COM
pared with the improvement IN corn.
For it is corn that makes their WORK
possible. Our corn crop is OF greater
national Importance than all the i've
stock raised. 1t has large and ever
increasing demand. AS raw mate
rial it gives rise to $50 manufactured
products. 1t is probably the greatest
money Garner raised on the farm

Black Knot on Plum Trees.

3.
It is getting to point where we
must fight this enemy of the plum OF
give up this excellent fruit. We take
the following from the Country Gen.
tleman:
e'Now is the time when the orchard
should have thorough going over Tor
the removal of black knot. Every plum
tree should be closely examined before
the leaves put out. Every knot Should
be cut away, carried off and burned. NO
exceptions should be made even 1or
large knots which appear on the main
branches. 1t is better to cut OH
tree next to the ground than to leave
a large knot standing to infect the
orchard. "A thorough removal OF all
knots will usually prevent any no.
ticeable damage. In fact, we have
never known Of any difficulty with
black knot where an orchard was care.
fully looked after. 1t has been SHOWN
however, that the disease can be con-
trolled even under considerable disad-
yantages by spraying. The spraying,
however, should always be reinforced
by pruning, just recommended. Early
spraying with Bordeaux mixture Is
most effective, but summer spraying
undoubtedly serves to some extent TO
hold the black knot in check"
