Walker,:Super intendent of the Census, with a view, to`liecure greater accuracy-and formity in the agricultural statistics for the tenth" census, has.just issued a circular setting forth the aims and wishes of the Bureau with regard to the method of arranging. Such stalls" ; tics. , . The agricultural schedule annexed to the Act of 1850, which. is also made it part of the Act of March 3, 1879, proVlding, for : the tenth nensus t , requires a report: of- the chief productions of agriculture "dui-- itig theyear eaded Jurier? There however, no -distinetr agricultural year which-ends on th&first of June, 'and there is reason td believe that the 'statistics_ of agriculture' from 1850 to 1870 in regard to malty of the principal products 'einbraeed'por- Cons of two different crops, inasmuch as the enumeration wits protracted through three, four, r and 'Cecil five months.- By the Act app roved March 15;79, it is provided that the tenth census shall be taken .and completed during the month of jnne r 18 , 1. This provision grea4': reduces the liability to error which ,has been noted. As the enumeration will begin,on the tlst of Julie and dose on or be fore the 30th, 611 the crops which -are [ ‘gathered once a Year will fall prkty. clearly on one side or the other of the dividing-line.. Thus the cotton crop reported - in the census Will be that of 18;9, gathered in the, fall-of that year, while the Wool clip or " wool-crop" rill be that of Out S'prinr , 'of I O, except in portions of CalZrnia•and TeXas,„ where both a fall and a spring, clip .are, secured. • For certain argrieultural produet-;. however, there is no harvest in the usual seuge of the term, but the pro duct is gathered week bY week or day by - day,- as it matt/ res. - 3l ilk, butter, cheese and meat belong. to this class. In view pf the . require merits of the law and the gicat irn or of' accurate statistical in trination relative to agrieulture, it is • deemed highly desirable that farmers should prepanf, themselves in advance to,_ give information ,with', promptness and . accuracy. ;All per sans engaged in agriculture' are de sired. to make notes. from time to time of the glr l antitieii and values of their several crops gatliZ.tred„ and the number of ,aer i es of land planted. in order that the statements, - when made to the Coumerators, may be of the highest possible value.
