START TAKING CENSUS.
First Of New Cards Turned Over to
Marshailtown Club.

The first of the census cards turned
in by the enumerators employed by
County Auditor A. W. Dobson to take
a correct census Of the city were
turned over to the Marshalltown Club
today. The county auditor thought
there were 1.2D0 to 1.400 of the cards.
The Marshalltown CLUB has made ar
rangements to check them against the
census the club took early in the
spring.
According to reports that the
enumerators have brought to the
county auditor the census takers are
making steady progress. They get
along quite rapidly in the forenoons,
but in the afternoons they find many
families not at home. This causes
a retracing of steps.
