CENSUS WORK
ISPROCRESSINC

Washington, Jan. 24.-Announce-
ment of the population of practically
all cities of the country by May or
June and the total population of the
entire country in September or October
is the expectation OF the director of
the Census, Sam. L. Rogers.
Population statistics of some Of the
cities probably win be completed by
March or earlier. Washington, d. c.,
is expected to be the first as it was in
the Thirteenth Census in 1910. In that
year it was taken April Is, and an
nounced June "a. Rhode Islands pop
ulation in 1910 was announced first of
the states on July 81. New York City's
population was announced September
2, Boston's September II and Chicago's
September is.
The center of population, Blooming
ton, Indiana, was announced July II,
and the country's total population was
made public December 10.
The enumeration is in progress
through the entire country said Mr.
Rogers today. "Advices from the SUI
pervisors indicate that during the
first week of the work al least 10000
enumerators were started.
1--WE find that is some districts it
viii be necessary to postpone the
| tions. There has been no opposition
TO furnishing the information request
ed by the enumerators.
THE supervisors report the com
| pletion of the enumeration in many
districts, and as rapidly as the enum-
orators turn in their portfolios they
are being examined in the office of
the supervisor and are being put in
shape to come to WASHINGTON The
supervisors have been instructed to
send the schedules as rapidly as con-
signments can be made ready. We
! therefore naturally expect a large
amount of the work to reach the office
| in Washington during the latter part
\ of this month or the first Of Feb
ruary, but as a general rule the enum-
GRAFTON will be completed throughout
the entire country by the first of
February. 1t will be some time, how
ever, before it will be finished in the
districts where it has been postponed
on account of climatic conditions.
I'VE are now organizing a force of
clerks who will be equipped to ex-
anime the schedules as rapidly as
! they are received from the supervi-
sors These clerks will make a pre-
liminary count OF the population. This
preliminary count viii be made public
as rapidly as the totals for the cities
and the minor civil divisions are OBJ
tanned. The population of the cities
| viii be announced first. We hope
that the total population of the coun-
try will be known in September or Oc-
tober of this year. and the population
of the cities should all be announced by
May or June

PLANS TRUCK RAISING
 WHEN ROADS FINISHED

Some delicious specimens of canta- aoupes grown by him were presented to the Log Cabin Democrat force a day or tive ago by W. S. Grinstead, who resides west of Wooster. MT. Grinstead, who has already attained reputation as successful grower of cantaloupes, cabbage and other truck, plans to go into truck-growing on an extensive scale when the hard surfaced road which will pass near his farm is completed.
 On a little patch measuring one ffortieth of an acre MT. Grinstead rais- ed and sold this year $40 worth of cabbage, rate of S1 500 per acre With Rockyford cantaloupes Mr. Grinstead says he can plant 2,000 hills to an acre and with a reasonable sea son can mature an average of four merchantable cantaloupes to the hill. He thinks the cantaloupes would net not less than S6.25 per 100, which would give him an income of $500 per acre. It is impossible, however, he says, to go into truck-growing on anything like large scale until inn proved roads on which to bring the produce to market are provided.
