WANTS CENSUS BUREAU
TO FURNISH FIGURES

Representative w. A. Oldfield
of Arkansas has introduced bill in
the house which seeks to compel the
census bureau to procure and give
to the public exact information as to
the number of bales of cotton at all
times held in the warehouses of the
cotton manufactures of this country
and also exact information as to the
number of bales of cotton exported.
Mr.. Old6eld stated that it was
unfair to the cotton producers of the
country for the census bureau and
the agricultural department to gath
er statistics monthly and publish
same for the benefit of the cotton
manufacturer and cotton broker,
advising them of the condition of
the growing crop and the number Of
bales ginned unless the same depart
ments compelled the cotton brokers
to publish the number of bales of
cotton they have on hand and the
number exported.
Senator Smith of South Carolina
also introduced similar bill in
the senate.

POPULATION OF
STATE IS l,574,449

The population of Arkansas is L.
574,449. Compared with popu-
lation of l,3ll,534. in 1900, this
represents an increase during the
last decade of 1852, 1885, or 20 per
cent. During the same period the
totalpopulation of continental Unit
ed States increased 81 per cent.
The growth Of the State was some
what more rapid than when the rate
was 1853 per cent.
The earliest population figures
for Arkansas are those reported at
the federal census OF 1910, when
the population was returned as IN
the territory of Louisiana. Arkan-
sas was organized as territory in
1919, and its population was report
ed for the first time in the federal
census of 1920. Between 1920 and
1850 the population of the State IN
creased at very rapid rate, the
population in 1860 being about
thirty and e.half times as great
as in 1920. Since 1860 the growth
of the State, though substantial;
has been much slower and at a more
regular rate than during the prev
ious years. The population in 1910
was more than three aud one-half
times that in 1860.
Arkansas has seventy-hve coun-
ties. The population af these couns
ties range from s, ,94G in Stone couhl
ty to Sc, 75l IN Pulaski county.
The following territorial changes
have been made in the counties of
Arkansas since 1900: Part OF
Columbia County was annexed to
Lafayette County in 1901; part of
Scott County was annexed to Lo-
gan County in 1908; part of Lau.
derdale County, Tennessee was
ceded to Arkansas and annexed to
Mississippi County in 1905, and
part of Indian Territory was anue}
ed to Sebastian County in 1905. J
Sixty hve counties increased In
population during the last decade,
the rates of increase ranging from
IL per cent in Sewer County to 81
per cent in Mississippi County, and
the absolute increase from 277 in
Sewer County to 28,572 in Pulaki
County. Thirty-four counties SHOW
a larger rate of increase thanfs
shown for the State as a whdJ,
which, as before stated, was 20 Har
cent. Ten counties decreased \
population during the last deIS1,
the rates of decrease ranging from
per cent in Little River County
to 1872 per cent in Madison County,
and the absolute decrease from 1874
in Little River County to 3,8O6 IN
Madison County. The aggregate
increase of population from 1900 to
1910 in the sixty-fve counties that
showed decreases was l3, 377. The
difference, 963,Ss5, Is, of course,
the total increase of population in
the State.

TAFT
HONORS FARMER BOY

Nhlle In w ashlngton two weeks
ago. Burley Seagraves of Biggers,
the boy corn king of Arkansas, re-
ceiyed special attention at the hands
of Secretary Wilson and President
Taft. He was presented to the
President as one of the sterling
representatives of the new agricul-
ture in Arkansas.
The Chicago Tribune, one of the
largest western newspapers in the
United States, devoted an entire
column last week to the Seagraves
boy and his manner of winning the
big prizes. In part the Tribune
says:
The Randolph county corn show
was. held IN Pocahontas Oct. "a
and Burley Seagraves was one of the
400 boys in attendance. His record
showed 1872 bushels of corn on his
| one acre of land. Mr.. Davidson,
the district agent, said he appeared
to be the winner, but he doubted
that the boy had what his record
showed. To make sure, he asked
Mr., Kizel to go to Blggers and
gather and weigh the corn and re-
port at the state fair at Hot Springs.
The estimate proved high, but the
ctual record of l24 bushels on the
acre was itself large enough to make
the record.
81 measured the land and saw
the corn gathered and weighed, and
there was l24 bushels 81 pounds TO
the acre." said Mr.. Kizer. "The
lad broke his land eight inches deep
in January and discked it, then re
broke it again and narrowed it
twice, logged it off, and planted 1t
with a sod drill, rows three feet
apart and stalks twelve inches apart
in the drills. When the corn be.
gan to come up he narrowed it with
section harrow, giving it the same
treatment a little later. Before it
was large enough to pillow he harrow
ed it with small expansion har-
row twice to the middle. He then
plowed 1t four times and run once
to the middle with the expansion
harrow after each blowing. After
it was LAID by he chopped out the
weeds and watched 1t carefully to
see that no weeds grew in the drill
or middle to sap the strength of the
corn.
"When the corn show was held
IN Pocshontas the Seagrayes boy
was all the talk of the town as he is
the first man or boy to raise 1874
bushels of corn on one acre in Ran
dolph county. He won the first
prize of $50 at Pocahontas, aud at
the state fair IN Hot Springs he won
prizes amounting to S54O. He sold
his corn at a profit of $1,000,
making In all, clear of expense,
$700.30 from the one acre. The
cost Of production was Sl4. 70, or Il
cents per bushel. As soon as he
returns from Washington and the
holidays are over be will enter the
agricultural school at Jonesboro
and take a two years course in agri-
culture, or until he graduates"
Mr.. Kizer made a test Of the soil
where this phenomenal yield was
secured and found it to be at least
fifteen feet deep.
