of the large number of states, it is
usually very difficult to grasp the
broad geographical differences regard
ing population, agriculture and manu-
features by means of comparisons
among individual states and particu-
larly so when they are arranged al
phabetically and thus separated from
those with which they are geographic
ally related. For this reason the states
have been grouped into nine well rec
ognized geographical divisions. Full
statistics with necessary comments
are presented for these divisions. Be
sides, in the tables Of statistics by
states the latter are grouped geo
graphically, thus permitting easy COM
parison among neighboring states.
Again, in the population statistics
in the abstract, details as to each sub
ject are given for urban and rural
communities separately. Fundamen-
tai differences in industrial and so
cial life between cities and rural dis
tricts result in marked differences in
the composition and characteristics Of
the population. In many cases it is
impossible to understand the differ
ences between states or sections Of
the country except through this dis
tinction between urban and rural pop
ulation. Very little use Of this inn
portant distinction was made in the
population statistics of previous cen
suses."
The most important departure from
previous methods of publication made
at the thirteenth census Is the inclu-
sion with the abstract OF a supple
ment giving details for the particular
state In which the person receiving
the volume resides. This new feature
is likely TO meet with marked APP
prevail from the general public. IL
seems that the abstract is being is
sued in some fifty different editions
with supplements for the different
states. This scheme combines the ad-
yantages of a condensed report Of the
most general results of the census
with those of a detailed report for
the counties. cities and other minor
civil divisions.

Summary Of Results Of Thir-

Dloested Information Of Interest to
People-Number, Acreage and Value
Of Farms-Reaarded as Most
Comprehensive Ever lssved.

Washington.--A condensed summary
OF the results of the thirteenth census
Of the United States has just been Is
sued BY the bureau of the census. the
summary Tor abstract), according to
a statement of Director e. Dana Dur
ana, being the most Comprehensive
ever issued by the bureau of the cen
sus.
It contains digested and condensed
information as to the number and
geographical distribution of the near
ly ninety-two million Inhabitants Of
the country, their race, nativity, ma
tivity of parents. sex, age, marital
condition, state of birth of natives and
country of birth of foreign inhabi-
tants. citizenship, school attendance,
illiteracy. dwellings and families. IL
shows the number, acreage and value
of farms; the number and value OF
live stock; the acreage, production and
value Of the various crops, and the
production and value of dairy and
other farm products.
1t contains statistics regarding the
manufacturing, mining and quarrying
industries, showing capital invested,
quantity and cost of materials, wages
and other expenses, quantity and
value of products. number of employees
and other important information.
Statistics on all subjects are present
ed for every state and, where APP
plicable, for every large city Through
out the volume are maps and dia-
grams illustrating the tables.
The abstract is a very different
document from any ever published in
connection with the preceding cen
suses, and Director Durand expresses
the belief that it will prove the most
useful census publication ever issued,
not only to students and professional |
statisticians, but also and more par
ticularly to the business man, the |
farmer and the public generally.
In commenting upon some Of the
features of this volume, Director Du-
rand, in a statement issued the other
day, says:
Among the new features of the /
present abstract is the emphasis that
has been laid upon the geographical
divisions of the country. On account
