United States cera,,s-

Beginning on the 10Th day of April the
enumerators appointed by the chiefs of
the census bureaus will commence their
work OF getting details whereby correct
enumeration of the population of the
United States may be secured. This work
is required every ten years In order that
not only the population may be known,
but that the number of representatives in
Congress may be established. This CEN
sus taking is of the utmost Importance to
the people of the United States, in fact it
is of such Importance that the President
has deemed 1t necessary to issue a pro-
clamation calling attention of the people
to what Is needed and also to issue warn
Ing to those who might be inclined to re-
fuse answers to the enumerators.
1t is the duty of every person to answer
all questions on the census schedules
which apply to him and the family to
which he is attached or which is under his
control, end to any farm or industry with
which he is in charge Those who refuse
to answer the questions put to them will
be subject to penalty.
The sole purpose of the census is to Sc
cure general statistical information re-
garding the population and resources of
the country, and replies are required from
individuals only in order to permit the
compilation of such general statistics.
The census has nothing to do with taxa
ton, with army or jury service, with the
compulsion of school attendance, with the
regulation of immigration, or with the
enforcement of any national, state, or
local law or ordinance. nor can any person
be harmed in any way by furnishing the
information required. There need be no
fear that any disclosure will be made re-
garding any individual person or his
affairs For the due protection of the
rights and interests Of the persons furnish
ing information every employee of the
Census Bureau is prohibited, under heavy
penalty, from disclosing any information
which may thus come to his knowledge.

Base Ball.

Another meeting was held on Wednes-
day evening to consider plans for putting
a good base ball team in the field at
Mount Holly the coming season. A COM
mittee was appointed to receive sub.
scriptions, and very good sum was prom
ised at the meeting without solicitation.
There is great interest in the movement
and everything indicates season that
will please all. Of course 1t is not expect
ed to be money-maker. That has never
been the result in Mount Holly, but good
team, with plenty of fast games, will
satisfy those who are in the habit of at
tending these events.
1t is intended to build bleachers and to
improve the grand stand. The field will
be heightened SO that the balls will not be
lost in the cornfield. Other improvements
will be made. The first game will be on
Saturday, May 7. Already there haye
been number of applications from play
ers who want to be on the Mount Holly
team. Some, however, have the the idea
that there will be mint of money and
that large salaries will prevail. That is a
mistaken notion and there will not be any
difficulty in securing good material at
ordinary prices.
There will be another meeting this
evening at the court house at which
officers will be chosen. Sheriff Worrell
is the unanimous choice for manager and
will undoubtedly be elected. All who
have contributed to the success of the
season and any who are interested in base
ball are invited to attend the meeting this
evening, which will begin at 80 o'clock.
Jack Sweeney, of Florence, well known
In base ball circles, will pitch for the
Brockton. Mass, team this season.
The Fieldsboro base ball team has been
organized for the coming season. The
officers are: President, Charles Parent;
secretary, Joseph Hesley; treasurer, James
Bretell; manager. James P. Steward;
assistant manager, John Church. They
would like to hear from all clubs in the
county, Florence in particular. Address
all communications co the secretary,
Joseph Hesley.
Manager Hoffman, of the Riverside
A. A., has secured the following players:
Morgan, pitcher; Ssdler. catcher; Borden,
first base; Leonard, second base and cap
tain; G. Rider, short stop; Nicholson,
third base; Kenes, of Reading, another
contender for the third sack; Davis, of
Medford, left field; VanAmburg, centre
field; B. Nicholson, right field; Myers.

larger profit from the product of theil
farms, or else divert the shipment of theil
milk to channels other than Philadelphia,
where the wholesale dealer has been able
to control the price.
In answer to question George Wildes,
the chairman, stated that the local organ.

A conference with representatives of the
latter organization will be held to morrow

to have one hundred dairymen subscribe
for one share each of the preferred stock
of 800. one can of 46 quarts to be de-
livered daily for each 800 worth of stock
taken. Under such an arrangement a
dividend of seven per cent would be
guaranteed, and dairymen would receive
one-quarter of cent more per quart than
the price governed by the Camden or
Philadelphia markets. At this rate the
dairymen who took the required amount

their milk, which would equal one-half

UNEQUALED INCREASE IN |
POsT0FFICE RECEIPTS
Gain During August Was I'M
preCedented-The Receipts
Amounted to $86,415.45 |

Receipts OF the Atlanta postofTlce
underwent a greater increase during Au-
gust as compared with August of last
year than they have during any other
month Of the year preceding. The in
crease was S15,7244e. The increase In per-
centage was p IA. Last month, the in
crease IN percentage, which was only 1873,
was greater than the increase anywhere
in the United States with the exception
of one city. Atlanta may lead all cities
in increase OF postofice receipts during
August.
The amount Of the receipts was $50. AS
45. The amount of the receipts for Au-
gust of 1909 was $40, 691.02
The volume of mail that the postoffice
handled last month was phenomenal.
August is one of the dull months, and
1t is usual for the receipts then to be
small. The fact that they underwent
an unprecedented increase shows that
the fall business started unusually early.
There have been several months dur
ing which the postoffice receipts have
been greater than they were during Au-
gust. But there has never been a month
during which there was so great an
actual increase in receipts, comparing
that month with the same month Of
year before.
It is believed that the receipts during
October will be the greatest in the his
tory Of the Atlanta postoffice.

ment steamer Albatross on the last leg
of q trip through Alaska, that has occu-
pied more than a month. The Albatross
is due at Seattle Monday.
1--WE came to see a little place called
Alaska but discovered an empire" said
Attorney General Wickersham- IT re-
alize more and more the Importance OF
opening the coal lands and after we have
a talk with the president, he may have
some recommendations that will result
in Strengthening out the puresent tangle.
The one great necessity OF Alaska is rail-
road transportation. as upon it depends
the adequate development of Alaska's
mines and agricultural lands.
at is evident that this transportation
cannot be furnished until the coal lands
are opened up, for cheap coal is required
to operate a railroad. I am in hopes
that something will be done in this mat
