POPULATION CONDITIONS
CHANGING.

Conditions brought about b,
the war attracted people to oul
centers of industry in great herds
but since those conditions no
longer exist and the big. bubble
that allured people to the city is
bursted, it is reasonable 20 expect
the return Of much Of this drift
to urban life to the country.
The figures of the present cen
sus show that the trend of popu-
lation from the country to the
city has become greatly accentu-
ated since 1910 and that, for the
first time in the country's his
tory, more than half of the entire
population is now living in ur-
ban territory as defined by the
Census Bureau. That is to say, of
the 105,683, 108 persons enumer-
ated in the Fourteenth Census,
preliminary tabulations show
that 54,816,209 or 51.9 per cent,
are living in incorporated places
of $500 inhabitants or more, and
50,866, 899, or 4S.1 per cent, in
rural territoy. AT the census of
1910 the corresponding percent
ages were 1853 and 53.7, respec-
lively, showing loss of SO per
cent in the proportion for the
population living in rural terri
tory To show more clearly the
change in the proportion Of the
population living in rural terri
tory now as compared with ten
years ago, the rural population
can be divided into two classes,
namely, 1864, 1876, or 9.3 per cent
of the total population, living mi
Incorporated places of less than
$500 inhabitants, and LOOP, 703,
or 1873 per cent Of the total pop
ulation, living in what may be
called purely country districts.
at the census of 1910, the popu-
alton living in Incorporated
places of less than $500 inhabi-
ants formed 8.8 per cent, while
he population living in purely
country districts formed AS per
'ent of the total population.
The increase since 1920 in the
as a whole, as before
tated, was 14.9 per cent, but dur ]
ng the decade there has been an
Increase in that portion of the
living in the urban
erritory of 12,192,826, or rural $
arritory of 1,51S,016, or only 81
err cent; and if the comparison !,
! extended to cover the two =
lasses of rural territory, it APP y
ears that that portion living in
Incorporated places Of less than !
500 inhabitants shows an in J
rease Of 1,745,371, or 21.5 per 9
mt, whereas that portion living
purely country districts shows !

turn bolshevik. But he probably did
enough, toward winning the war to
Justify letting him go without a

Poultry Exhibit At The Fair.

Mr.. Editor:-May not crave space in
your valued publication for a few remarks
concerning the Poultry Exhibit at our
County Fair at Rockville.
A new feature of the exhibit this year
Is that an entry fee of only rs cents is
charged to any person in the State of
Maryland or the District of Colombia for
entering chickens in the single classes of
cock, hen. cockerel or pullet. In the exhi-
bltlon pen. young pens. (chicks Matched
this year, will no longer compete with old
pens (birds over year old) and the entry
fee for an exhibition pen Consisting Of one
male and four females) is 81.
First prize in the single classes is So,
and the second prize 81. In the pen class
first prize is 81. and second prize $2.5O,
with entries only to fill. This should
bring out a splendid exhibit from the
county. and l sincerely hope that every
farmer OR other poultry raiser in the coun-
ty who raises purebred chickens will enter
some birds at the Fair.
In addition to the regular prizes. a spe-
cial prize Of SIS to lst. IS to End and So
to 3rd, has been offered for the best pen
OF purebred chickens raised and exhibited
by any school child or club member of
Montgomery county.
The members of the Federation of Wom-
ems Clubs have been of great assistance
in boosting the Fair and it is due them
for their unfalling work and deep interest
for the male citizens Of the county to back
our Fair with equal vieor and interest.
Every citizen in the county should take an
interest in our old and established Agri-
cultural Society. for it is the peoples Fair
and the directors who work hard for its
success should receive the united support
Of the citizens of the county both in at
tendance and interest.
Very cordially yours.
