SINGLE, WED OR DIVORCED YOU'LL HAVE TO TELL THE CENSUS MAN ALL ABOUT IT You'll Have to Tell Him How Long You've Been Married, and If This Is Your First Venture In Matrimony, and a Lot of Other Funny Things—Where Were You Born? (Correspondence of The Gazette) Washington, D. C., Feb. 19.—What the census enumerators are required to learn regarding the place of birth of native born and foreign born persons, and other personal facts concerning the latter class, in taking the Thirteenth United States Census, beginning April 15 next, is fully set forth in the printed instructions prepared by the United States Census Bureau to guide them in filling the population schedule. It is pointed out that all the questions relate only to conditions existing on April 15, the "Census Day." On the subject of place of birth of a native-born person the instructions state that if the person was born in the United States the enumerator is to give the State or Territory (not city or town) in which born. A person born in what is now West Virginia, North Dakota, South Dakota, or Oklahoma should be reported as so born, although at the time of birth the particular region may have had a different name. Relative to conjugal condition, the enumerators are to report whether the person is single, married, widowed, or divorced. Married persons are to be asked if they have been married before. If the present marriage is the first, the fact is to be indicated by the sign "M 1;" but if it is the second or subsequent marri- birthday, conjugal condition, number of years of present marriage, the number of children born, and the number of children now living, to be asked by the enumerators in the Thirteenth United States Census, beginning April 15, next is clearly explained in the printed instructions to the census-takers, which have been prepared. All the questions relate solely to conditions existing on the census day. As to age at last birthday of the person enumerated, the enumerators are cautioned that this question calls only for the age in completed years at the last birthday. In the case of children not two years old, the age should be given in completed months, expressed as twelfths of a year. Thus the age of a child 3 months old, should be entered as 3-12, a child 7 months old as 7-12, a child 15 months old as 1 3-12, etc. If a child is not yet a month old the enumerators are to enter the age as 0-12. A child who is just a year old on the 17th of April, 1910, should nevertheless be returned as 11-12, because that is its age in completed months on April 15. The enumerators are told to take particular pains to get the exact age of children. If the person was born outside the United States, the enumerator is to enter the country (not city or district) in which he was born. Instead of Great Britain, he is told to write Ireland, England, Scotland or Wales. In the case of persons born in the double kingdom of Austria-Hungary the enumerator is cautioned to be sure to distinguish Austria from Hungary. In the case of those born in Austria proper, they are to distinguish also those born in Bohemia and those born in Austrian Poland. They should write Finland and not Russia for a person born in Finland. The inquiry as to the number of children born applies to women who they are enumerating following classes: Persons visiting a family Transient boarders or have some other usual or place of abode; Students or children living with a family in or tend some school, college educational institution in but not regarding the play home; Persons who take their family but lodge or where; Servants, apprentices, or sons employed by a family living in the house or on the but not sleeping there; or any person who was for family, but who has since permanent inmate of an house, home for the aged, prison or any other in which the inmates may live long periods of time.

All that I want is an Last week a visitor to David Rankin stood on farm in the world and lost itself in the distant str corn field 6000 acres in Relative to conjugal condition, the enumerators are to report whether the person is single, married, widowed, or divorced. Married persons are to be asked if they have been married before. If the present marriage is the first, the fact is to be indicated by the sign "M 1;" but if it is the second or subsequent marriage, then the enumerator is to write "M 2," meaning married more than once. The question calling for the number of years of the present marriage is declared by the Census Bureau to apply only to persons reported as married, and the answer should give the number of years married to the present husband or wife. Thus a woman who may have been married for 10 years to a former husband, but has been married only 3 years to her present husband, should be returned as married 3 years. The number of years entered should be the number of completed years: A person who on April 15, the census day, has been married 3 years and 11 months should be returned as married 3 years. For a person married less than 1 year, the entry is to be "0", meaning less than 1 year. In the case of persons speaking Polish or reporting that they were born in Poland, which is no longer an independent country, the enumerator is to inquire whether the birthplace was in what is now known as German Poland, or Austrian Poland, or Russian Poland, and he must write the answer accordingly as Poland (Ger.), Poland (Aust.), or Poland (Russ.). If the birthplace reported is Canada, the enumerator is required to ask whether the person is of English or French descent and write Canada (Eng.), or Canada (Fr.), according to the answer. The question calling for the year of immigration to the United States applies to all foreign-born persons, male and female, of whatever age. It should be answered, therefore, for every person whose birthplace was in a foreign country. The enumerator must enter the year in which the person came to the United States. If he has been in the United States more than once, the year of his first arrival is to be stated. The inquiry whether naturalized or alien applies only to foreign-born males 21 years of age and over. It does In the case of persons born in the double kingdom of Austria-Hungary the enumerator is cautioned to be sure to distinguish Austria from Hungary. In the case of those born in Austria proper, they are to distinguish also those born in Bohemia and those born in Austrian Poland. They should write Finland and not Russia for a person born in Finland. The inquiry as to the number of children born applies to women who are now married, or who are widowed, or divorced. The answer should give the total number of children that each such woman has had during her lifetime. It should include, therefore, the children by any former marriage as well as by her present marriage. It should not include the children which her present husband may have had by a former wife, even though they are members of her family. Stillborn children are not to be included. The question concerning the number of children now living refers only to the children which the woman herself has had. The enumerator is required to include all of these children that are living, no matter whether they are living in his district or somewhere else. Persons living on April 15, but who died after it and before the enumerators call, are to be counted, but persons born after April 15 are not to be included in the count. Persons who were single on April 15 are to be reported as single, even though they have married subsequently and before the canvasser has called. This is true, similarly, of persons who became widowed or divorced after April 15th. The census law provides that all persons shall be enumerated at their "usual place of abode" on April 15. This means the place where they may be said to live or belong or the place which is their home. As a rule, the usual place of abode is not the place where a person works or where he eats, but where he regularly sleeps. The enumerators are cautioned, however, that where a man happens to sleep at the time of the enumeration may not be the place where he regularly sleeps. There will be a number of persons having their usual places of abode in enumeration districts who will be absent April 15. These are to be included and enumerated after the facts regarding them have been obtained from their families, relatives, acquainting with their usual places of abode in enumeration districts who will be absent April 15.

It should be answered, therefore, for every person whose birthplace was in a foreign country. The enumerator must enter the year in which the person came to the United States. If he has been in the United States more than once, the year of his first arrival is to be stated. The inquiry whether naturalized or alien applies only to foreign-born males 21 years of age and over. It does not apply to females, to foreign-born minors, or to any male born in the United States. If the person was born abroad, but has become a full citizen either by taking out second or final papers of naturalization or through the naturalization of his parents while he was under the age of 21 years, the enumerator is to write "Na" (for naturalized). If he has declared his intention to become an American citizen and taken out his "first papers," the enumerator is to write "Al" (for alien). The inquiry as to the ability to speak English applies to all persons 10 years of age or over. If English is spoken, the enumerator must write English in the proper column. If the person enumerated is not able to speak English the enumerator is required, in such cases only, to write out the name of the language spoken, as French, German, Italian, etc. If more than one language is spoken by a person who, however, does not speak English, then the enumerator is to write the name of that language which is his native language or mother tongue.

The enumerators are cautioned, however, that where a man happens to sleep at the time of the enumeration may not be the place where he regularly sleeps. There will be a number of persons having their usual places of abode in enumeration districts who will be absent April 15. These are to be included and enumerated after the facts regarding them have been obtained from their families, relatives, acquaintances, or other persons able to give the information. For instance, if a member of any family in an enumeration district is temporarily away from home on a visit, or on business, or traveling for pleasure, or attending school or college, or sick in a hospital, such absent person is to be enumerated and included with other members of the family. But a son or daughter regularly living in another locality should not be counted with the family at home. Servants, laborers, or other employees, who live with the family, and sleep in the same house or on the premises, should be enumerated with the family. The Census Bureau states that there will be, on the other hand, a certain number of persons present and perhaps lodging and sleeping in districts at the time of the enumeration who do not have their usual places of abode there. These are not to be enumerated. It must be assumed that they will be enumerated elsewhere. The canvassers should not, therefore, unless it is practically certain that they will not be enumerated anywhere else, enumerate or include with the members of a fam- by they are enumerating any of the following classes: Persons visiting a family; Transient boarders or lodgers who have some other usual or permanent place of abode; Students or children living or boarding with a family in order to attend some school, college, or other educational institution in the locality but not regarding the place as their home; Persons who take their meals with a family but lodge or sleep elsewhere; Servants, apprentices, or other persons employed by a family and working in the house or on the premises, but not sleeping there; or Any person who was formerly in a family, but who has since become a permanent inmate of an asylum, almshouse, home for the aged, reformatory prison or any other institution in which the inmates may remain for long periods of time. OBJECT LESSON TO FARMERS Object lessons in thrift are by no means lacking among Americans who have risen to great wealth from circumstances of due want. But it never hurts to vary the instruction by citing from time to time some fresh example of what can be accomplished by hard work under the benign stimulus of free institutions. Sixty years ago—so runs the story told by one of our exchanges—a Missouri farmer by the name of David Rankin married. After the ceremony he turned to the parson and said: "Here is $5. It is every cent of cash I have in the world. But take it. All that I want is an even start." Last week a visitor to the home of David Rankin stood on the biggest farm in the world and let his eye lose itself in the distant stretches of a corn field 6000 acres in extent. Turning to the farmer he looked at him. BOUNDARIES OF FORESTS LANDS PROTECTING WATERSHEDS NOT TO BE OPENED TO ENTRY Tracts in Area Unsuited to Growth of Trees, and Which Are More Valuable for Agricultural Purposes, will Be Opened to Entry—New Orders The examination of National Forest boundaries carried on by the forest officials last summer and fall upon the initiative of Secretary Wilson and under his direction, has resulted in new information, which will make it possible to restore to the unreserved public domain much land along the edges of and within forests that is not best suited to forest purposes. This is to be done under a plan just approved by President Taft. The plan was formulated by Secretary Wilson and Secretary Ballinger jointly and submitted to the President in the following letter: February 7, 1910. The President, The White House, Sir: After having very carefully considered the matter of eliminations from and additions to the National Forests, we respectfully recommend that the following general policy be adopted: 1. Lands wholly or in part covered with brush or other undergrowth which protects streamflow or checks erosion on the watershed of any stream important to irrigation or to the water supply of any city, town, or community, or open lands upon which trees may be grown, should be retained within the National Forests, unless their permanent value under cultivation is greater than their value as a protective forest. 2. Lands wholly or in part covered with timber or undergrowth, or cut over lands which are more valuable SENATOR FLINT'S CONFESSION Senator Flint's few but not very well chosen remarks on the direct primary and its consequences appear to have come home to roost in a fashion that he scarcely expected. The senator says he can not afford to run for office because he would require an expensive personal organization to support his candidacy. This is a confession of failure. It means that Senator Flint realizes that in the sense of his constituents he has not made good. A senator who had the approval of the people of California would be put to merely nominal expense for re-election. There would not be any question about it and the competition for his place would be negligible. The Chicago Tribune has these comments on the affair: "The senator slanders the direct primary. Its object is to make it unnecessary for a man in his position to maintain an elaborate and expensive statewide organization. It gives the party voters an opportunity to decide at their primaries whether the record which their representative has made is such as to entitle him to a vote of confidence. A man whose valuable senatorial activities have familiarized the nation with his name does not have to start a pie counter in every district in his state to get friends and votes. He does not need a machine and the patronage that keeps it running. It is easy to see why a man with a poor record should dread the direct primary." The senator declares that he would have to buy his way to the senatorship, not, of course, by bribery, but by financing an expensive campaign. That conception of a direct primary campaign is not confined to Senator Flint, and has found its way into applied politics in other states. But the conception is altogether vicious and its embodiment in action should Sixty years ago—so runs the story told by one of our exchanges—a Missouri farmer by the name of David Rankin married. After the ceremony he turned to the parson and said: "Here is $5. It is every cent of cash I have in the world. But take it. All that I want is an even start." Last week a visitor to the home of David Rankin stood on the biggest farm in the world and let his eye lose itself in the distant stretches of a corn field 6000 acres in extent. Turning to the owner, he looked at him and marveled. "How did you do it?" he inquired. "Early and late," was the farmer's answer, smiling. There are other men in the world who own more land than David Rankin of Tarkio, Mo., but they are not farmers, and the point to be noted in this man's success is that he accumulated his wealth by industrious habits and up-to-date methods of cultivating the soil. Every acre in David Rankin's farms in Atchison county, Mo., produces. "I don't graze sheep, nor pasture cattle," he explained simply. "I farm." In the midst of the great Missouri-Illinois-Iowa corn belt are his farms. Cattle and corn are the products. The land on all sides sells at $100 an acre and up. David Rankin has 25,640 acres of such land devoted to raising corn and feeding cattle. Although 84 years old, David Rankin is light of step, quick of movement, and enjoys good health. It is evident that his regular life and moderate living furnish the explanation. In all his work he is systematic and runs his many acres on schedule-plan. Farming to him is a business, and not merely a way of eking out an existence. The exchange reproduces this little romance in the hope that it will stimulate and spur the farmers elsewhere to zealous emulation. MASONS INSTALL OFFICERS Anaheim Lodge, No. 207, F. & A.

Brown treasurer, Joseph Helmsen, secretary, W. H. Wickett senior deacon, W. P. Quarton junior deacon, Sidney Holman chapain, E. L. Goodrich marshal, Robert Wilson steward, O. T. Callor steward, A. B.

After installation an oyster supper was served and a very enjoyable time which protects streamflow or checks erosion on the watershed of any stream important to irrigation or to the water supply of any city, town, or community, or open lands upon which trees may be grown, should be retained within the National Forests, unless their permanent value under cultivation is greater than their value as a protective forest. 2. Lands wholly or in part covered with timber or undergrowth, or cut over lands which are more valuable for the production of trees than for agricultural crops, and lands densely stocked with young trees having a prospective value greater than the value of the land for agricultural purposes, should be retained within the National Forests. 3. Lands not either wholly or in part covered with timber or undergrowth, which are located above timber line within the forest boundary or in small bodies scattered through the forest, making elimination impracticable, or limited areas which are necessarily included for a proper administrative boundary line, should be retained within the National Forests. 4. Lands not either wholly or in part covered with timber or undergrowth, except as provided for in the preceding paragraphs, upon which it is not expected to grow trees, should be eliminated from the National Forests. We have the honor to be, very respectfully, your obedient servants, James Wilson, Secretary of Agriculture. R. A. Ballinger, Secretary of the Interior. A definition of the lines along which action should be taken was called for by the fact that reports and maps are now in the possession of the Department of Agriculture which show the character of the lands and the cover along the lines of the National Forest boundaries. The purpose of the department in securing this information was to make possible a correction of the boundaries on the principles now approved by the President, for it has never been intended that the National Forests should include agricultural land or grazing land not suitable for forest purposes. Plans for gathering data were drawn up under Secretary Wilson's direction a year ago, and instructions for going over the 60,000 miles of boundaries were issued to the National Forest officers last May.As a result the boundaries can now be more carefully corrected than has ever before been possible. The senator declares that he would have to buy his way to the senatorship, not, of course, by bribery, but by financing an expensive campaign. That conception of a direct primary campaign is not confined to Senator Flint, and has found its way into applied politics in other states. But the conception is altogether vicious and its embodiment in action should be made a criminal offense by the imposition of strict limitations on the expenses of candidates. The right man will have no difficulty in making his way to the senate. Senator Flint confesses that he is not the right man because he cannot be elected without spending a lot of money. No one has questioned Mr Flint's ability or his personal popularity as distinguished from his political availability. He himself questions his availability.-Call.

The application of the rules which the President has approved will mean the early restoration to the public domain of 4,000,000 acres or more of National Forest land. This is something over 2 per cent of the total National Forest area. Three-tenths of the forests have yet to be mapped. Some of the land is suitable for dry land agriculture, though the greater part is grazing land. In Idaho, which has a large National Forest area, about 470,000 acres will be eliminated, of which 34 per cent is tillable. Eliminations in similar proportion will be made in a number of the other Western states which have large amounts of land in National Forests.
