amendment as a conspiracy against
the southYr
"Not II maintaining the integrity OF
the constitution can be a conspiracy
against the south" answered Mr.. Mel

Senator Bacon protested to Mr.
Young and said the question should
not be made a sectional one. He gavs

SHEEP AND WOOL
IN UNITED STATES
Census Report Shows Many
Interesting Features of
This Industry

Washington, Dec. 15-Statistics rela-
tive to sheep reported on the farms
Of continental United States at the
Thirteenth decennial census, April is,
1910. compared with those of the
Twelfth census June 1, 1900 and the
figures for wool produced in 1909 and
1899 are contained in an official state
ment issued today by Director Durand
of the bureau OF the census, depart
ment of commerce and labor. It is
based on tabular summaries prepared
by DIR. John Lee Coulter, under the di-
rection of DR.. LeGrand Powers. chief
statistician for agriculture in the bu-
reau of the nsu
The table below shows for the Unit
cd States as a whole and its nine main
geographic divisions, the number Of
farms reporting sheep and the percen-
tage which this is. of all farms. 1t
shows also the number of sheep of
sheartng' age and the number OF such
sheep per farm reporting sheep.
In making a comparison of the re-
ports of sheep and wool at the GEN.
suses of 1910 and 1900 the difference
in the dates of enumeration and the
should be remembered. The census Of
1900 taken as June 1, secured a report
of wool produced during the preceding
twelve months-that shOrn in the fall
Of 1893 and the spring Of 1900. The
census of 1910, taken as of April Is,
enumerated the product Of the calen-
dar year 1909, as provided by law.
Each report Is. however for a period
Of twelve months and no material err
ror can come from the comparison.
The report for 1910 is preliminary
and subject to such slight changes as
may result from further correspond
nee. A small percentage of the
schedules were either slightly defective
Orin complete, some reporting wool
produced in 1909. but no sheep on
hand April Is, 1910 and report
ing sheep Of shearing age on the
farm but no wool produced in 1909.
The report presented Is, however. COM
asmuch as imperfections Of the emu
meration were corrected by correspon-
dence and by the use of averages OBJ
tanned from the perfect reports.
Decrease in Number
There were G10.912 farmers in the
United States who were reported by
the enumerators as keeping sheep in
1910. They had 39,64A.O46 sheep Of
steering age q ntheir farms April Is,
1910. and in 1909 produced 1890
$50 fleeces of wool Weighing 289,419,-
977 pounds. valued at $65.472.0O0. The
excess in the number of fleeces shorn
during 100? over that Of sheep on
hand April Is. 1910 is due In part to
the fact hat large numbers of ami
mails in all sections are shorn each

Of the Swain house was used for that
purpose. and has again been secured.
1t is an ideal place for it, and affords
an abundance of room. There is no
admission charged, but every farmer
who attends is expected to bring some
thing to exhibit. This results in a
large and interesting display of every
thing the farmers produce.
The high school will attend the in
stitute and the grades will have one
day at the fair n institute.
Owing to there being so few in
stitutes this winter. there probably
will be a large attendance at Larimore
