According to the preliminary report
Of the census bureau, although the
population of Negroes in the United
states has increased 993, ,769 since
1900, in 1910 they formed only 1917
OF the total population. against 11.6
per cent In 1900. The total number OF
Negroes In the United States in 1910
was 9,S27.763, compared with S.sS3.-
944 In 1900. The increase for the dec
ade was l1.2 per cent. In the same
time there was an increase of 20 s per
cent among the native whites and 30.7
per cent among the foreign born
whites. The Negroes are the only race
In the country showing a larger per
centage of females than males.
1t is gratifying to note that the Ne
groes form 14.5 per cent OF the rural
population of the country. For years
Negro leaders have urged their people
to stay on the farm and avoid the con.
gestion Of the cities. The Negro in the
country Is self-supporting. healthy.
and In many cases better provided
with this worlds goods than his white
neighbor on the same economic foot
ing. This is particularly true among
the small farmers OF the South. where
the training OF the Booker T. Wash
ington school at Tuskegee has resulted
in making some highly. successful Ne
gro farmers. In addition to the other
industrial pursuits for which students
are fitted. The total value OF farm
property operated by Negroes is shown
to be sl,144.1S1000 In 1910, which Is
no inconsidersble sum and Is a large
increase over the valuation Of s499,-
941, 900 in 1900.
These figures are highly significant
as showing the large number OF Negro
farmers there are in the country and
the rapidlty with which they are de-
veloping. or the total Negro popula-
ton more than seven million IL a in
the country. In the ten years illite racy
has decreased from 571 to 30.4,
while the death rate has de-
creased in the registration area from
294 per cent to 255 per cent. In
every way the Negroes seem to have
made substantial progress during the
last decade.-Birmingham Age-Her-
