of the large number of states, 1t is
usually very difficult to grasp the
broad geographical differences regard
ing population, agriculture and manu-
factures 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 i'm
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 ap-
proval from the general public 1t
seems that the abstract is being is.
sued in some fifty different editions
with supplements for the different
states. This scheme combines the ad-
vantages 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.

IN CONDENSED FORM
Summary of Results of Thir-
teenth U. S. Census.
Digested Information Of Interest to
People-Number, Acreage and Value
of Farms-Regarded as Most
Comprehensive Ever Issued.

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 Cor abstract), according to
a statement of Director e. Dana Dur
anc, being the most comprehensive
ever issued by the bureau of the CEN
sus.
1t 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. 1t
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 ap-
plicable, for every large city. Through
out the volume are maps and dia-
grams illustrating the tables.
The abstract is 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 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

were discussed by E. Dana Durand, di-
rector of the census. in an address de-
thropo1ogical society the other day at
the New National museum.
During the decade from 1900 to
1910 the white population of the Unit
ed States increased % per cent,
while the colored increased only II
per cent, and most of this difference
was due to the immigration of the for
mer in the absence of which the
whites would have increased only
about IA per cent Mr.. Durand said.
THE Indian" continued the speak
er, has increased about IL per cent.
the Chinese have decreased in num-
bers, and the Japanese have nearly
trebled."
'In practically every census taken
the whites have shown a more rapid
increase than the colored," said Mr..
Durand There has been no great
migration of the negroes from the
south, and nine-tenths of their total
number are found in that section. The
natural rate of increase-that is, the
excess of births over deaths among
the white population of the south-is
much higher than that of the colored,
and of the whites in the north
Among all classes of the popula-
ton the births of boys have exceeded
that of the girls, but equality appears
to be brought about by higher death
rate among the males"
