Experiences of Census Enumeration

To The Editor. Observation-Disclosures:
Have Just finished counting the peo-
pie in Bingham. There afe-hold on,
| almost told. Please tell every one
not TO ask the enumerator the number
in his district. He is liable to fine
or Imprisonment or both for telling.
An old lady refused to open the
door probably thinking book-agent
was knocking. l got her age from
neiehbors. Thought at first she was
away from home. | have since al
most regretted that | did not smash
the door but perhaps on the whole it
is Just as well. Probably if she had
known it was the census enumerator
she would have been glad to see him,
at least she might have known that
anyone refusing to answer is liable to
a fine.
Speaking not as a census enumera-
tor but as citizen, it is not a pleas
ing prospect to find so many aban-
doned farms on the back roads.
stopped one night with Charles Gil
man, one of the oldest and best of our
people He is a man you can listen
to with profit He told me that he
can remember when there were sixty
scholars in his district while now
there are hardly any. When young
man he used TO work during the sum
mers at Southport, 100 miles distant
walking that distance in two days
each spring and fall. His farm has
on it six miles of Virginia log fence
that he built years ago. 1t is good
fence today but who now days builds
cedar fence? Or any good fence.
The silver Innings to the cloud for
Mr.. Gilman are the r. F. d. and the
telephone. And you may believe that
those two are real silver in many
places that are long distance from
moving pictures. The Somerset Far
mers' Telephone Co. is all right
Mr.. Gilman told me that forty years
ago he used to hear great lecturers at
farmers meetings telling what should
be done to build up the agriculture
of the state and amongst the other
things they urged the building of mills
and factories to make a market for
farm produce and by making farming
profitable, keep the boys on the farm.
But he says it has not worked that
way The boys work in the mills.
While the village population has in
creased the rural has decreased to
such an extent that whole school dis
tricts have in some cases been aban-
doned and roads discontinued. 1t is
the ebb tide from the country to the
town. When the towns gets hun
CRY enough the tide will turn.
