L. S. Population
Estimated 105,000,000

WASHINGTON, June 25.-The
population of continental United
States is estimated at Io5,ooo,ooo
by J. A. Hill, chief statistician of
the census bureau. His calculation
is based on the combined popula-
tion of 1906 cities and towns for
which statistics have been an
nounced.
The increase over 1910 is placed
at about 100000, showing the
growth of the country has not
kept pace with the previous dec
ade. Almost complete cessation of
immigration during he war is the
chief reason assigned for the fall
ing off in growth. Other sugges-
tions were the two influenza cpl
denies, return of aliens TO their
native land, and death of soldiers
abroad and at home during the
war.
The aggregate population of the
cities and towns on which the esti-
mate was made is 4I,o2o,354. This
is an average gain of 90 per cent
compared with IS per cent for the
previous decade.

"Brattleboro is a cordial spot in any

there took us in tow after we had washed
up and ran us out to the Country club

cuisine above criticism and the atmos-
phere, dried and warmed by a cheerful
fireplace, quite up to Brattleboros best
which means the best anywhere. II
was a mirthful happy gathering, the per

away at the Brooks House.
