WASHINGTON, D. c., April 5. = A
preliminary statement of the general
results of the census Of manufacturers
for Vermont has been issued by Di-
rector Samuel L. Rogers, of the bureau
Of the census, department of commerce.
1t consists of summary comprising
the figures for 1900 and 1914, by totals,
prepared under the direction of William
NJ Steuart. chief statistician for manu-
features.
The figures are preliminary and sub
iect to such change and condition as
may be found necessary from a further
examination of the original reports.
The census of 1914, like that of 1909,
with reference to manufactures, eXclud-
| ed the hand trades, the building trades,
and the neighborhood industries, and
4 took account only of establishments
| conducted under the factory system. In
| the last census, also, as in that for
| 1909, statistics were not collected foT
establishments having products for the
census year valued at less than $500
| except that reports were taken for es
adjustments idle during a portion OF
| the census year, or which began opera
ton during that year, and whose prod
uets for such reason were valued a
less than $500.
The word establishment as useG
in the census reports may mean more
than one mill or plant. provided they

Value of Products.
The value of products was S76,Sl1,-
increase being $500 900, or 12.4 per
cent. The average per establishment
was approximately 600 in 1914 and
$4,000 in 1909.
The value of products represents
their selling value or price at the
plants as actually turned out by the
factories during the census year and
does not necessarily have any relation
to the amount of sales for that year.
The values under this head also include
amounts received for work done on ma
terials furnished by others
The value added by manufacture
represents the difference between the
cost of materials used and the value
| of the products manufactured from
them The value added bv manufac-
| ture was S34 900 900 in 1914 and S33,-
4s7 600 i'm 1909. the increase being
$500. coo, or % per cent. The value
added by manufacture formed 44.6 per

Percentages of Increase.
The population of Vermont at the
census of 1910 was 355. $50, and it is
estimated that it was 361 900 on July
IL, 1914.
The summary shows an increase at
the census of 1914, as compared with
that for 1909. with the exception of
number of establishments. firm mem
oers, and average number of wage
earners, which show slight decreases.
