of agriculture, which will be taken
April rs, 1910, at the same time as
the count of population, will be greatly
facilitated If the farmers will keep or
provide some sort of written record of
their farm operations during the year
1909. This effort to secure farmers
personal cooperation is but one Of a
number Of ways and means chosen in
the effort to secure an accurate, ex-
peditious and economical census con-
corning population, agriculture, manu-
features, mines and quarries, which
are the subjects of inquiry defined in
the census law.
Great Good Expected.
Great good, it is expected, will be
accomplished by getting into direct
contact and cooperation with the
farmers. Some of the instrumental
ties which will be used to reach him
and which promise practical results,
are the state commissioners and state
boards Of agriculture, the state agri
cultural colleges, the Farmers Unions
the Patrons Of Husbandry, the Farm
ers' Institutes and the agricultural ex-
pertinent stations; in fact, all the ex
listing organizations for the education
and betterment of farmers, while the
public press will be an important fac

millions of farmers will be reached al
their homes or at their mutual i'm
provement meetings by the contem

The questions about farm operations
will relate to the present calenda
year, 1909, but, on the other hand
the inquiries regarding farm equiv
ment are directed toward the farmers
possessions of this kind on the da,
and date of the enumeration, April IL
1910. The latter division of inquir.
really amounts to an inventory. TIL,
necessity of some written or perma

of farm operations Is obvious and its
value in furnishing data more reliapI,
than guesswork is equally evident.
