INFORMATION AS TO STATES IN
COMPACT FORM.
From Fridays Daily.

From Fridays Daily.
Washington, September, Census
Director Durand has announced that
January next the issuance from time
to time of series of bulletins, each
giving certain population statistics
for a single state and its subdivisions
The form of these bulletins. which
will later be bound to constitute reg
ular census volumes, marks a very dis
tinct departure from the method of
publishing census statistics ten years
ago. 1t is one step i'll the carrying
out of Director Durand's aim to cim-
plify and make more accessible the cen
sus data, so that they can be readily
used, not merely by expert students
and statisticians, but by the average
citizer
Form of Last Census Reports.
The directors statement follows:
''In the reports of the previous GEN.
sus practically all the information was
arranged with view to facilitating
comparisons between different localities
with respect to given subject, and not
with a veiw to enabling the people OF
a given locality to ascertain readily
all the facts with regard to that 10.
cality.
"Thus, the numbers of inhabitants
sions townships, villages, etc, of all
the states were presented in one table
the same figures for the incorporated
places of all the states in another
table, the various classes of population
details regarding all the counties in the
United States in another series of
tables, etc.
"This meant that a person who
wished to look up the statistics of
minor civil divisions, Incorporated
places and counties for his own state
alone had to look in several separated
places for them. Even a person who
desired to find information with regard
to his own county alone had to con-
suit a large number of scattered tables
Difficult of Research.
''In one table, for example, he would
find the absolute number of inhabit
ants for his county side by side
with similar figures for every other
county in the the United States. He
would have to go to another table
where again the figures for ali the
counties of the country appeared. to
find the figures distinguishing the pop
ulation of his county according to
color and native and foreign birth.
''He would have to turn over many
pages more before he came to the fig
ures for his county with regard to the
country of birth of the foreign born
Still farther over he would find the
figures for his county regarding males
2l years of age and over; in another
place-in fact, in another volume-tho
figures regarding illiteracy; still else
where those regarding the school at
tendance of the children In each oil
these tables the figures for any one
county were presented from left tC
right, the various counties being listed
down the side of the page and the sub
jects across the top.
Useful information Buried.
"The result of this method of pre-

sentatiOn was that very few of the in
habitants of any county ever saw or
made any use of the statistics regard
ing that county, except possibly those
of the mere number of inhabitants
Similarly, in the 1900 census report
the statistics of any given city or vii
lagc had to be picked out from many
scattered places.
at is the intention at the present
census to publish for each state bull
letin which will contain at least The
more important figures derived from
the population census, both for the
state, as whole, and for its counties
cities and minor civil divisions. More
over, the facts available with regard
to any given county or any given city
will be all publiscd together in one
place. one item below another, the name
of the county or city appearing at the
head of column, and the various
subjects being listed down the side of
the page.
County Statistics IN Compact Form
"The items regarding counties will re-
quire two pages to list. in this way,
by reading down the figures in given
column on two facing pages, the citi-
zen of any county will have before
him all the facts which the census
publishes with regard to that county
The data for twelve counties can he
presented in this manner on the two
pages. BY turning a few pages and
reading from left TO right a person
can compare the figures for his county
with those of every other county in the
state. A similar treatemnt will be
given to at least The principal statis-
ties OF individual cities.
"The bulletins for the several states
as first issued, will not, it should be
noted, contain all the information
which the census will ultimately pub
lish with regard to that state OF
its large cities. IT will contain only
the first two runs of the populations
cards through the tabulating machines
'This, however. includes all the infOr-
nation which will ever be available
with regard to counties and their
minor civil divisions, and the smaller
cities and villages; for it will readily
be understood that the census cannot
afford to persent such elaborate stats
tics with regard to Il county, Il town
