PREPARE FOR THE CENSUS. 
Enumerators will begin to take the Twelfth Census of the ITnited States on Juno 1, 1900. The inquiries rela- 
tive to agriculture will cover the crops and products of the calendar year 1899, but the enumeration of live stock, 
fowls, bees, etc., will embrace those "on hand June 1, 1900." 
All farmers are urged to make written records of their farm operations during the year 1899, so that when the 
enumerator calls next June, the infoi-mation to be gathered by him will be readily at hand. The law requires 
for each farm : 
Acreage, Tenure and Race : Total acreage ; acres improved ; acres unimproved ; acres irrigated. 
Values: Value of whole farm ; value of buildings and permanent improvements ; value of all machinery, imple- 
ments, vehicles, etc., thereon. 
Acreage and quantity oi all crops, such as Grains, Cotton, Tobacco, Vegetables, Potatoes, Cora, etc., raised 
in 1899. 
Number and value of Live Stock, Fowls, Bees, etc., on hand June 1, 1900. 
Quantity and value of Milk, Cheese, Eggs, etc., made in 1899. 
The Farm : For census purposes, a farm is all the land cultivated under one nuuiagement, whether in a single 
body or separate parcels. 
Tenants: Tenants will be asked to give the size and value of farms rented or leased, and the value of the 
improvements thereon, the same as if they were owners.
