The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1919-11-26

A census of the country's manu-
features was made for the first time
in 1910. Under the present law a
snla1iufactures census is to be taken in
connection with the Fourteenth De-
cennial Census and every two years
thereafter.

The Bureau of the Census is part
of the Department of Commerce. 1t
was established as a permanent Blu
reau in 1902. Prior to that time the
census work was done by temporary

The statistics of the first census of
the United States were published in
one small volume consisting of Sc
pages. The statistics of the 1910
census required II volumes having
an aggregate of more than 40,00o
pages.
There were 6,361,502 farms re-
ported at the last decennial census.
valued at more than 40 billions of
dollars. The 1920 census is expected
to show more than 100000 farms.
A heavy concentration on ages end

ed at a census. The Census Bureau
has made many efforts to overcome
this inaccurate tendency on the part
of the people when stating ages.

MINERAL OUTPUT OF ONTARIO.

The Canadian governments re-
port on the mineral output in the
province Of Ontario says that the
cessation of hostilities affected min
ing the first quarter of 1919. The
output Of nickel matte, the most i'm
portant Of all Ontario's mineral
wealth for war purposes, reached IN
the first three months of 1918 a total
Of 9,G77 tons, but in the correspond
ing months Of 1919 it had dropped
to 500 tons, while the value of the
output fell from S5,S06,20O to 49,
692 1000. The falling off was not
confined to the nickel mines, how.
ever, for copper, gold and silver show
a reduction, both in production and
in value. Small increases are shown
in some Of the secondary minerals,
but the aggregate for the quarter OF
all mctallifcrous mines is over I,.
100000 below the 1913 figures. Dur.

TWO STORIES OF ST. GEORGE
One Recounts His Staying Of the
Dragon and the Other Makes Him
Christian Martyr.

st. George, a noble Christian
youth Of Cappadocia, so the legend
runs, in the full panoply of a knight,
with a red cross on his shield, was
riding forth one day to join his
legion when he came to a city the in
habitants of which were being grad
ually destroyed by "A terrible mon
ster. The kings daughter was about
to be offered as a sacrifice to appease
the creature and the princess was
going weeping to her fate when st.
George spurred his horse forward
and pinned the dragon to the ground
with his lance. This is the picture
one usually sees Of St. George and
it decorates one of the coins of Eng
land. Legend aside, St. George is
believed to have been q Christian
martyr who suffered under Diocle-
tian in the year goo. Old chronicles
state that st. George helped the
English forces in one Of the crusades.
Edward Ill was the first to invoke
his aid when at the siege Of Calais
he cried, cha! st. Edward, Ha! st.
George" AS the result was a crush
ing victory st. George was adopted
as the patron saint of England and
the red cross on his shield was placed
in the "union jack"

Who gets the money that you pay the butcher for beef? This interesting
diagram will help you to se. 1t is made up from figures secured by the Fed.
erl Department of Agriculture who followed a number of groups Of steers
through the packing plant and through the retail market up to the time the
meal was in the hands Of the ultimate consumer. The live animals were
bought from the farmer; in addition to the meal there IA of course the hide,
vsceral fat and other byprOduGs. These were sold by the packer and this sum
added TO what the retail market man received for the meat gives the total
proceeds. out of this total amount the farmer received &C to IS per cent for
the lve animals. Three to 4 per cent were required to ship the live animals to
market and to feed and care for them in the stock yards before they were
slaughtered. The packer received 5 to 6 per cent of the total proceeds, and
this covered the cost of saugEtermg, refrgerating shipping in refrigerator cars
to 20 per EEL vas received by the butcher, which comprised his selling cost
plus his profits. The illustration indicates the proportions Of these amounts
by the relative sizes of the money bags.

is little doubt that arbitration will be
adopted.
All organized labor is busy trying to
end the dispute, whose continuance
would be catastrophe equally to the
country and to unionism itself. The
difficulty in the way has been the .ques-
ton of callin~ he strike before
litrating the issues.
The governme4, insisted upon this
as necessary to assure the nation Il sup
ply of coal. The mine workers have
opposed it., probably because the leaders
felt to accept such terms would look
too much like surrender in the eyes
Of their followers.
The leaders of the strikers have want
ed way out, and the fact that the
efforts to procure arbitration are com
ing from within organized labor itself
will save the faces of the coal strike
leaders.

COMMISSION TO END
STRIKE OF MINERS
BY CLINTON w, GILBERT
stnn Correspondent Of the Evening Public
IehKer

Washington, Nov. 4-The coal strike
;s likely TO end this week. Steps are
being taken for the appointment of
commission similar to the commission
appointed by President Roosevelt to END
the anthracite strike several years ago:
This move has the support of organized
labor itself. outside of the ranks OF the
coal strike leaders.
Attorney General Palmer had con-
ferences yesterday with Mr.. Gompcrs.
the chief of the American Federation
of Labor. and with Mr.. Stone, the chief
of the brotherhood of Engineers 1t
will be recalled that from the first Mr..
Stone has offered his good Offices to the
government in the settlement OF the
coal strike. and also that in his public
statement he advocated the appointment
of commission to settle industrial dis
putes.
The procedure in this case is likely
to follow the line OF Mr.. Stones sug-
gestion, except that a special commits
sion is likely to be named to deal with
the present dispute.
If the present plans 20 through, the
attorney general will ask next Saturday
that the writ of injunction be vacated
by the court and simultaneously the
labor leaders will call off the strike,
Saturday may not be the day when the
agreement will be reached. There may
be delay of day or two, but there
