the work of the enumerators. In the
cities supervisors will camp on the heels
of the men with the pencils during the
first day of their work, and in the coun
try districts the sheets themselves will

The inquiry will comprise three prin
cipal branches—population, agriculture
and mining and manufacturing. The
questions will cover the acreage, the
value and the proiuct of farms, indnif
mg an especial enumeration of animals,
as it wifi the capital invested, the value

will cost the Government the pretty
sum of $5,500,000. Of this amount s♦,-
500,000 will be paid to enumerators and
tire remaining million to supervisees.
With a tew exceptions, the enumera
tors will be paid on the basis of the
