Vermont in The Census.

The census director may figure chat
no more than the same number OF en-
umerat0rs employed in the census in
Vermont IN 1910, but they will find a
good many more people to count here
NEXT year than we had ten years ago,
good many for Vermont, that Is to
SOY. The population IN 1900 was s48,-
641 as against 332 ,422 in 1890, 4 gain
of 1870, or a trife over Q ~ per
cent,

better opportunities elsewhere have
been made less persuasive not to say

opportunities right here at home where
they never existed before.
OF course, any Jump at the figures
Of 1910 now would be sheer 9uesswork,
but $4,000 would h "a gain of only s
per cent over the population Of 1900,

able to show mare than that. OF course.
there mlsst be reckoned in this THE feet
that sonae of the smaller towns viii
undoubtedly show losses. although
those losses are largely drift to nearby
large towns aud are not lost to the
state as whole
The population Of Vermont by de-
eades from ihe first census to that Of
1900 was as follows (i790), s5,449;
(is00l, 154,4G5; (tsl0), 217,sa5;
